Rebecca woke up at around 2am because she was thirsty. She quietly got up and tried not to wake Michael up and she went into the 부엌, 주방 and grabbed a cup and filled it with water and drank it. After she finished drinking, she put the cup in the sink quietly and headed back to the bedroom. She got back into 침대 and fell asleep...or 더 많이 like falling into a nightmare.
In the nightmare
Rebecca and Michael were playing 축구 with Brandon and Sean out in Neverland. Soon enough, Rebecca noticed a face and it was Josh. She turned to Michael, saying that they had to leave now. Josh was walking up to them, but they walked faster. Soon enough, they broke into a run. They got inside the house and quickly hid in the bathroom, locking the door. Brandon and Sean were in there with them. Rebecca was scared and Michael held her close. Josh looked for them everywhere, but no sign of them. He decided to check the bathroom. Michael quickly turned the light off to make sure he didn't know they were in there. Josh left and they got out of the bathroom, looking around cautiously. Soon enough, Josh came back and grabbed Michael and held a 칼, 나이프 at his neck, and told Rebecca that if she didn't get back together with him, he'd kill Michael. She told him she wouldn't and he pushed the 칼, 나이프 deep into Michael's throat and killed him. Brandon called the cops and Sean called the ambulance. Rebecca did all she could to keep Michael breathing, but no luck. The 구급차 came and took him away and the cops came and took Josh to prison. Rebecca, Brandon, and Sean got in the car and went to the hospital because they told them to follow.
When they got to the hospital, they followed the doctors to the ER and told them to wait in the waiting room. They did so and Rebecca prayed that Michael would be alright. Once the operation was over, they came out and she went up to them. They led them to his recovery room and told them that he had barely any time left. He was on life support for today only. They walked into the room and she saw Michael, bandaged up, and saw the monitor. His 심장 was slowing down and so was his breathing. She sat down 다음 to his 침대 and cried. She poured her 심장 out, telling him how much she loved him and how much she wanted him to stay alive. She felt his hand stroke her cheek and she looked up. She saw him looking at her. He told her that he loved her, too, and how much he wasn't wanting to die. She took his hand in hers and she continued telling him that he wasn't ready for death. Soon, his eyes closed and his 심장 stopped. She shouted 'no! This can't be happening!' The doctors led her out and she was fighting it. She didn't want to leave Michael alone to die. She'd die with him if she had to. She continued screaming at them to let her go. Then it faded to black...
Rebecca woke up, screaming. She shook and breathed heavily. Michael woke up from the screaming and sat up quickly. "You alright, Rebecca?!" He asked her concerned. She quickly buried her face into his chest and cried. Michael held her tightly. "What's wrong, Rebecca? What happened? Did 당신 see something?" He was getting worried about her. Soon enough, her mother and Chris ran into the room. "Is she alright?!" Isis, her mother, asked. Rebecca continued shaking in Michael's arms and crying on his chest. "I don't know, Ms. Ishtar. I tried asking, but she's still crying. Is there a way to calm her down?" She thought of a way. She sat down on the 침대 and rubbed her back. She started calming down and Michael was in awe at what happened. Chris sat down on the floor and looked at Rebecca. "Can 당신 tell us what happened that made 당신 scream so loud?" He asked. Once she was calm, she nodded and told them that she had a horrifying nightmare that Josh came over while she, Michael, Brandon, and Sean were playing 축구 in Neverland and the 초 time he came, he said he'd kill Michael if she would give him a 초 chance. She told them that she said no to him and he cut his throat deep and everything. She then started crying again, saying that Josh was taken to jail and Michael was taken to the hospital and he was put on life support for just that day. Then she told them that the dream ended with her screaming because his 심장 had stopped and the doctors took her out of the room with her screaming that she'd never leave Michael alone to die, that she'd die with him if she had to.
Michael looked at her in shock. 'She dreamed that? Oh my God...' He thought and held her close to him. "Don't worry. I promise I'll be with 당신 always, Rebecca." He told her and she hugged him back. Chris looked at the time and saw that it was 5am. He stood up. "Well, I'm gonna make some breakfast for everyone. How does 팬케이크 sound?" He asked. "As long as they don't burn, haha." Isis said. "Alright! I'm gonna start cooking then." Then he walked out. Michael looked at Rebecca and saw that she was a bit pale. "You feeling alright, Rebecca?" He felt her forehead and she was burning up. "Oh goodness. Ms. Ishtar, do 당신 have a thermometer?" "Yeah, hold on." She walked out of the room to grab the thermometer and brought it back in. "Here. What's wrong?" "I think Rebecca may be getting a fever." Michael slid the thermometer under Rebecca's tongue and waited. Once it beeped, he took it out and read the temperature. "Oh God...102.2. She's gonna need to be in bed. 또는 I'll have to watch her until she gets better at my house. Is that alright with you?" He asked. She thought about it as Michael helped her out of 침대 and helped her get into the living room and onto the couch. "I guess if she's sick, 당신 can watch her. I've gotta get to work. I'm gonna be gone for a few days. 당신 wouldn't mind taking care of her, would you?" "I don't mind at all. Thank 당신 so much for letting me stay here." "It was no trouble at all. Well, I gotta get packing before breakfast is done." "Okay." As she left, Michael turned back to Rebecca, who was laying on the couch, sweating. Michael got up and went to the bathroom to grab a wet wash cloth and headed back into the living room and wiped her sweat away with it. "Breakfast is ready!" Chris shouted. Michael turned to Rebecca and her eyes opened slightly. "Want some breakfast, Rebecca?" She looked at Michael and nodded slightly. Michael helped her up slowly and helped her to the 표, 테이블 and her mother came back out with a suitcase and her briefcase. They sat down at the table, Michael sitting 다음 to Rebecca, making sure she didn't fall over 또는 anything. Chris got the 팬케이크 on the 표, 테이블 and the syrup and they started eating. Rebecca ate slowly because she knew if she had eaten fast, she'd throw it up.
After breakfast
Chris took the plates and forks into the 부엌, 주방 and cleaned them. Michael got Rebecca onto the 침상, 소파 and laid her down. "I'm gonna go pack some things for you, okay? You'll be staying with me for a few days while you're mother is out." Michael told her. She nodded and he went into her room to get some clothes for her. He actually had her mother get her underwear because he didn't want to seem like such a pervert. Once her mother got her under garments and put it in the suitcase Michael took out, he got her pants and shirts and fedora in there, too, and brought it out with him. Isis gave Michael a copy of Rebecca's car key. "Since she's sick, you'd have to drive her car." She said. "But I-" Michael was cut off. "Please? Since 당신 do know how to drive, right?" "Yeah, but...I haven't driven much after that ticket I got when I was working on Bad." "Understandable, but 당신 do have to drive this time at least. If 당신 get caught, tell them that I gave 당신 permission and that Rebecca is sick. They know us." "Alright, I'll drive." He took the key in defeat and Isis helped get Rebecca's suitcase into the car. Once the suitcase was in the car, Michael got Rebecca into the passenger side and buckled her in. Michael closed the door and headed to the driver side and got in. He waved goodbye and drove off to his house.
Arriving at his house
Since it was 2 days before the tour started, he had plenty of time to help Rebecca get better. Michael parked the car and helped her out, along with getting her suitcase inside. Once he got her inside, he helped her to the private 도서관, 라이브러리 and had her sit down on the chair. He took her suitcase up to his room and came back downstairs and went into the 부엌, 주방 and got some water and medicine for her stomach. He then returned to the private 도서관, 라이브러리 and handed them to her. "Here, take this. It should help 당신 feel better." He said. She took the cup of water and the medicine and drank it. "Thank you, Michael." She said weakly. He pulled up a chair 다음 to her and sat down, holding her hand. "It's all for you, Rebecca. I don't like seeing others sick." He told her. She smiled at him a little bit.
They spent the whole 일 together. She got a tour of the house, her fever was going down, and she wasn't feeling sick anymore. She got to experience her first ever water balloon fight out in Neverland Ranch. She saw a pile of leaves and jumped into it. The leaves flew up and fell back down around her while she giggled. Michael was chuckling at how she could let out her inner child. The pile was big enough for two, so Michael jumped in after her. She screamed playfully and she got hit with his back wave of leaves. She giggled so much, she almost 로스트 her voice. She was lucky she didn't lose it. She looked at Michael and smiled. "Michael, thanks for taking me out here. I've never had this much fun before." She said. Michael turned his head to her and smiled back at her. "I figured as much, Rebecca. 당신 never really told me what happened in your past." He said. She sat up and told him about it. How her childhood wasn't all a childhood. She had to work herself as a kid. She was a child star, working in 영화 and such as a little kid. Michael was shocked. 'She may actually be the one...sorry, Frank. But I'm going with my instincts.' He thought. "You realize that we have something in common, Rebecca?" "The whole 'not having a childhood' thing? Yeah...and with the fact that-" "We were both abused as children 의해 a parent. 당신 were abused 의해 your mother and I was abused 의해 Joseph, who is my father." "Yikes...I'd be afraid of Joseph, too. I've seen him a few times and I was so scared that I would run behind a building, hoping he wouldn't see me." "You're afraid of him?" "Yeah. He's a scary looking man." They laughed together and looked at each other. They realized they had so much in common. "Are 당신 visual?" Michael asked her. "Yeah. I've learned almost all your dances when I was younger. Starting with Billie Jean." She responded. She told him that she'd dance for him before they had to go to bed. They spent the rest of the 일 outside, playing, throwing leaves at each other and tackling each other. They then chased each other around the ranch. Once Michael caught her, they fell and rolled on the ground, finally stopping 의해 the lake, Michael on 상단, 맨 위로 of her. They chuckled at each other.
Chris was watching them from a 나무, 트리 and he was trying to keep quiet. "Michael, I think someone is in the tree." Rebecca whispered to him. "Let's pretend whoever is in there isn't here." He whispered back, winking. She winked back, smiling slightly. Michael leaned down and was gonna 키스 her, until he said something. "Chris, get out of the tree." "Oh man! That takes the fun out of everything, Michael!" Chris shouted and they chuckled. Chris got out of the 나무, 트리 and Michael and Rebecca stood up. "I thought 당신 were supposed to bring Crystal here, Chris. My mom left 당신 with her car, didn't she?" Rebecca asked. "Yeah, she did. I was just dropping 의해 to see what 당신 two were up to." 'Uh huh, sure, Chris.' Rebecca thought. Chris soon left and Michael turned to Rebecca. "Now that Chris is gone...where were we?" Rebecca giggled. Michael grabbed her and held her close to him, her hands on his chest. He leaned down and kissed her and she kissed back while the sun was setting. Once the sun was gone, they stopped 키싱 and headed back to the house.
Inside the house
They went into his room and she remembered her promise to Michael. "Okay, before we change...I'll dance for you." She said. He smiled and nodded and turned on Billie Jean. She got in the starter position, did the crotch grab, sang along, did the moonwalk and the toe stand, she did everything he did on Motown 25. Once she finished the song, he clapped for her and she bowed. They changed into their pajamas and headed downstairs. Crystal was gonna be here any 분 and Rebecca was gonna make dinner. Crystal was gonna bring something, too, so they had to be sure about everything they had cooked up. As for a place to sleep for her, she was gonna stay in the guest bedroom, Chris was gonna be across the hall from her room, and Rebecca was gonna be in Michael's room, staying with Michael. She was at least happy to be in the same room with him, and she'd have her best friend over here with her while she stayed at the house.
