Lissy's hand twitched to fly across Michael's face. But she found strength to hold back. "What do you mean you're seeing someone?" One half of her subconscious appreciated his blunt truth but the second half found it disheartening.
"Exactly what it sounds like it." His words may have been a bit too straightforward but he said them with a brilliant smile. "Just please don't ask who she is."
"Who is she?" she challenged.
Michael laughed at daring approach. "It doesn't matter but she's waiting for me."
"She's inside?"
He lied with a single head nod. "Yeah..."
"1995 is a long time from now." She wanted to make known the deal was still on and not changing for anyone.
"She can wait. She's patient."
Lissy forced a smile before planting a kiss on his cheek. "Call me tomorrow."
"Will do," he said as she began to walk away.
Once her car was no longer in sight, he retreated back to the Neverland Gardens.
Shakira didn't seem to have moved an inch as she was still sitting in front of the piano. She acknowledged his return with a warm smile. "Who was that? Everything okay?"
"Everything's fine. I'm very sorry." Michael got back down comfortably on the blanket. "If you could start from the top that would be great."
With no hesitation, Shakira's fingers once again danced along the white keys.
I've got my baggage
And you've got yours
I know we've been damaged
Been through it all
You know that feeling you get just before a
Beautiful disaster
Right on top
Looking down from the
Terrifying roller coaster
Oh, baby, can you hear that sound?
My broken heart is beating faster now
In your arms
I know that I'm safe here in your arms
Lay down
Lay down your head on my shoulder
Hey now
Let's just depart from the notion
That I love you too much
Now I'm here to stay
I'm not giving up, I'm not running away
So we're gonna leave it that way
That way
This is much bigger than you and I
To live without love would be suicide
I think you will soon close your pretty eyes
I like to hear you breathing
It's like the soundtrack of my life
The only memory I'm keeping
Oh, baby, can you hear that sound?
You're broken heart is beating faster now
