Tough Love Part 15; Part 4
I have the writing bug WRITE now!! Enjoy!! Hats off to the story â??Too Lateâ? also. I enjoyed reading it last night. I also meant to title the last part Chapter 15 part 3 The Sweet 16 Part 2 ()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()() Chapter 15 part 4 The Not So Sweet 16 Part 3 Sometime later, it was time for me to open my gifts. I sat in a chair while everyone else was standing around in a circle. Michael would hand me a gift, and I would rip them open. Then Patricia would sit them to the side for me. I got great gifts, like a wonderful black leather jacket from Janet; and a bottle perfume from Katie. For her to not celebrate birthdays, she had many people fooled. The ultimate gift was when I looked up; my dad was walking towards me with a light pink box in his hands, with a silver ribbon wrapped around it. Until this point, I forgot my father wasnâ??t anywhere to be seen! â??You donâ??t think I forgot about your party, did you?â? â??Where have you been Daddy?!â? â??Picking up the perfect gift for you. Come on, I want everybody to see this!â? People started clapping as we walked up on stage. I REALLY didnâ??t know what he was up to, and I couldnâ??t believe I was being put on the spot like this either. My father had both of my hands in his as he spoke these words to me. â??Lyric, youâ??re the only daughter I have, so youâ??re special to me. Because you are special, I want to give you something thatâ??s from the bottom of my heart. I hope you can promise me this much.â? I couldnâ??t help wondering what he wanted me to promise him in front of all these people. Couldnâ??t we just discuss this in private? He bent down on his left knee. Okay, this is getting weird Clarence! I couldnâ??t help but think. He pulled the string on the ribbon and opened the box slowly. Then he gave me the box. I got a better look at it, and thatâ??s when I saw five Crosses going around the front. I know Iâ??ve seen something like it before, but I still wasnâ??t too familiar with it. â??Lyric, baby, would you wear this Chastity ring for me?â? It took me a second, then I said â??A Purity ring?!â? â??Yes. Youâ??re a good girl, and I want you to stay that way. So I want you to wear this pretty little ring. I know staying pure is important to all of us.â? Where has he been for the past four years? On his man planet, Mars?! Butâ?¦if he was giving me a new opportunity to start over, I surely will. So I accepted. I took the ring out of the little cushion in the box and I handed him the ring. He slipped it on my ring finger, putting the other ring, which Latoya gave me on my right index finger. Then he kissed the Purity ring. â??Good luck my dear.â? He hopped up to his feet and hugged me tight. The crowd was clapping. I believe Michael was the loudest. He surely was clapping after other people started to stop. Then I saw Marlon nudge Randy because Randy was shaking his head. I guess he thought somewhere down the line he was going to get his hand in the cookie jar. Now my father has squeezed the cookie jar shut. No trespassing! Clarence kissed my cheek one last time and walked off the stage as Michael came on. He got the microphone from its stand and â??All I Do is Think of Youâ? came on. One of my favorite songs in 1975 from them. â??Hey Lyric, I heard this is one of your favs. Take a seat.â? He said as he slid a chair behind me. He sat me down then. â??Start the song over, Tim.â? Tim did. The spotlight, which was pink, focused on us. Michael started swaying beside me. Then started really moving as he said the first words. I motioned for him to give me another microphone. Instead he handed me his. So I pushed him down in the chair gently, and started singing to him. â??I begin to take the long way home So I can be alone (To think of how to say) You're fine in every way Hey, I'm in love with you (oh, I love you baby) I think the world of you (ooh, yes I do)â? Once I got to â??Oh, won't you please, please be mineâ?, I really begged. I got major claps. Then Michael stood and we shared the mic as he whispered â??Girl, youâ??re so doggone fine.â? And I said his line â??Baby, I love you. Think the world of youâ?. We killed it once we got to the last line. I did his ad-libs and he would do Jermaineâ??s parts. We bowed and curtsied as people went ballistic. I know we did great as a duo. Itâ??s just that the feedback seemed even greater than what we thought we would get. I could tell it by his nervous laughter. â??Give it up for Miss Lyric Swan!â? â??And Michael!â? I added. â??Iâ??m use to that.â? He whispered in my ear. Then we laughed. Randy made sure to have me to himself more. I danced with the brothers and my dad too. After all of that, I really needed something to drink. Randy went with me to get some punch. Tatum was at the punch table as Michael fixed her some and handed it to her. â??Oh, hey Tatum,â? Randy said with a smile. â??Hi.â? â??Whatâ??s up guys?â? Latoya said as she came up to us. â??Nothing, but Lyric, that bracelet looks familiar. I think itâ??s mine.â? Tatum said. I looked down at my wrist as she took it in her hands. â??Yeah, Michael gave me that same one!â? Then Michael got a hold of my wrist also. â??Thatâ??s because it IS the same one. How did you get it, Lyric? I thought I left that in my room.â? â??Hey, I got it from Latoya.â? â??No you didnâ??t, Lyric. I wouldnâ??t go in Michaelâ??s room, take his GIRLFRIENDâ??S stuff and put it on you.â? For all I know, she probably meant as in plural for the word girlfriendâ??s. Then she walked away! â??I want it back.â? â??Why?â? Michael asked. â??YOU gave it back to me. I wanted you to keep it. It was only for you, but you said you didnâ??t like looking at it if we werenâ??t together.â? â??Well, I want it now. Even if we arenâ??t together anymore.â? She looked at him with big pitiful eyes. â??Here Tatum, take it. I thought it was hers.â? I couldnâ??t get that thing off of me fast enough! I handed it to her, feeling warm inside for bad reasons this time. I basically yanked Randy away from the punch table and started dancing with him to a fast number. He liked me being more aggressive and hanging on to him even longer, but he noticed I wasnâ??t concentrated on him much more than I did ten minutes ago. Twenty minutes later Randy left my side so I sat down to catch my breath. Sometime later, the brothers got mingled in with the crowd and the DJ announced they were about to perform. Now that I think about it, what kind of party hosted by the Jacksons would be a normal one if they donâ??t perform? â??Ladies and gentleman, it is a new song from the Jacksons upcoming album, Destiny! This is a funkadelic new jam called â??Shake Your Body (Down to the Groooundd)!â? The boys were in their formation. They wore matching leisure suits with platform shoes. Marlon had on a light emerald one, Tito wore orange, Jackie had on yellow, Randy had on a baby blue one, and Michael had purple. â??This is especially for the birthday girl, Lyric.â? The DJ said. So everyone stood around them and we watched the masters do their work. I could tell their moves were coordinated and very free. The part I was crazy about was when the saxophones went crazy themselves and the boys would do this pelvic thrust. My. Mouth. Dropped. THEN the boys would bob their heads and would point forward. They did both of those moves twice, so I was definitely one of the ones screaming for them. When the song ended everyone clapped. The thing is we THOUGHT they were done with the song, but instead they had their own encore. Twice, Michael whispered â??Letâ??s dance, lets shout. (Shout) Shake your body down to the ground.â? Then he grabbed me up and the brothers started doing the moves. I could tell he wanted me to do the same so I did. Then he repeated: â??You are the spark that lit the fire inside of me And you know that I love it I need to do just something to get closer to your soul And you do know that I want you Let's dance, let's shout Let's dance, let's shoutâ? Then Michael said the chorus. By now more people joined in. Michael even had me to do the pelvic move! It wasnâ??t the best, but it was fun to do. By now itâ??s probably about nine. The good thing about California is that it gets darker at a later time. I remembered Michael told me he wanted to get a close-up view of my new ring. While I showed him, I was going to thank him for the party. He told me to wait by the pool. So I waited. And waitedâ?¦.And waited! It was only fifteen minutes, but I was so jittery and anxious. Plus I thought about showing him my appreciation in a way that might just surprise us both. I didnâ??t see him in the crowd or anything so I was about to go in the house to see if I could spot him. I went through the front of the house. But as I was walking, I kept stopping in some of the rooms that were on the first floor, yelling out his name. I never got a response. So as I opened the door, I walked out front. Thatâ??s when I saw a speck of Michael and who I was sure was Tatum. So I picked up my dress a little and decided to trot down towards them. Thatâ??s when I noticed they were leaning against his gate. They werenâ??t facing me. But I did hear some of what they had to say. â??But Michael, I never said I wanted to break up. You canâ??t let my agent get in-between us. I wanted to go to the premiere with you.â? â??Then you couldâ??ve. You do everything else. How come you couldnâ??t come with me?â? â??Whatâ??s that supposed to mean?â? â??You know what it means Tatum.â? â??Kiss me.â? â??What?â? â??Kiss me. The only way you would know how I really feel is if you kiss me.â? â??Tatum,â? he laughed a little, â??no.â? He tried walking away. She yanked his arm, jumped and wrapped her legs around him, and then she stuck her tongue in his mouth basically. I mean she was REALLY kissing him! And he never backed away or pushed her off. He kept kissing her as she kept kissing him! And through it all, my heart kept sinking as I could hear it beating in my chest. I couldnâ??t believe WHAT I was witnessing as I watched him grip her so hard; he kept lifting her yellow tank top up a little. I couldnâ??t believe he would full me all that bull. Then he would do that to me. To US. Or what would have been US. ()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()() You like, huh? Something Iâ??ve been dreaming about for months! I donâ??t care if youâ??re shock, you betta vote up! You know why? Because another part is coming soon! Luv Aariyan!
