All Is Fair In Love And War

The camera blurred with a twinkle effect while slowly focusing on them as the song started, Delilah smiling as she sang her falsetto and looked to Jackie who kissed her hand.

" All my love is all I have."

" And my dreams are very special."

" All my life I looked for you."

" And today my dreams come true."

" You need me and I need you."

" Love and us is very special."

" Things you seem to do divine."

" You looked straight into my eyes."

" I know our love was meant to be."

" 'Cause our souls touched tenderly."

" Love is life and life is living, it's very special."

Michael's head remained cocked to the side and his hands interlocked on his lap.

He kept telling himself in his head that they were merely marketing the music.

It was a love ballad and they had to sell the chemistry right? He was less tense with that thought.

No matter them holding hands, smiling, and looking into each other eyes, they seemed to be getting closer and closer the more they sang.

But Michael digressed and stayed calm. It's just for show, it's just for show.

" Hold my hand and take my life."

" Through these days adventure rules."

" Once my love was truly great."

" Then my life was sewed together."

" A change in life can bring good things."

" When you're here, love so supreme."

" Close to you, our lips should meet."

" To remember days so sweet."

" I need you and you need me, very special.
Our love is joyous, yeah, we can make it."

Robert turned to face Michael, who had been silently huffing and puffing for some time. " You awfully silent over there everything okay?"

Michael gave a hard nod to his question. " Of course why wouldn't I be? I just ... never really got the chance to listen to the song. It's a great song but hell it sounds more like her song than his."

" That's because it was meant to be on her album but they figured since she had multiple hits they could put it on his since his deadline was coming up and his album wasn't done yet. They didn't have time to change it so they left it as is."

Michael snorted at the fact. " Borrowing hits but claiming to be the best male artist on the label, okay."

" Am I sensing animosity?" Robert egged on. " I mean you obviously know that's not true so why does that bother you. Or is it because of how much he's flirting with Delilah right now?"
