Colette
Fancy's P.O.V.
In the dining room, we were eating crêpes while listening to some of Motown's greatest hits. Watching Michael eat reminded me of when we used to eat crêpes at my house back in Gary. I miss all the good times we had together...

Orlando, Florida
Michael and I were watching the waves cascade over the plage floor and flush away. The sun's warm rays pressed heat on our backs while the cotton like clouds hovered over our heads.
Our feet was deep in the golden brown sand while our hands were clutched together. Gary was nothing like Florida. This place had a certain glow to it like no other place I've been to.
During the sunset, the whole family was cuddled close together watching the sun slowly sink beneath the ocean creating a heartwarming experience. This was the first time Michael even kissed me- though it was on the cheek.
" toi know you're my best friend, right?" He whispered gently in my ear. I nodded and mumbled " I know, you're my best friend too."
That's when the feelings started to begin. Every chance he got, he told me that one jour we would get married and have a baby together. Most of the time I didn't believe him even though he expressed it a lot.
Michael and I were insperable until he started chant with his brothers and going to places like strip clubs and entertainment circuits. I'll never forget the jour he left me. I was devastated for the rest of the year. But now, I have him for right now. And I'm gonna enjoy this.
Michael's P.O.V.
Being with Fancy always makes me happy. Everything about her is just so perfect. Her chocolat brown eyes, her long and silky dark brown hair, her soft cinnamon skin; she's so beautiful. I've always had a crush on her but I was too afraid to tell her. Now, I had a chance too and it felt good to release all these feelings that have been trapped inside for so long.
After breakfast, Fancy's aunt arrived accueil from her flight. She was beautiful just like Fancy. It's like beauty runs through her family. Jermaine, Jackie and Tito were wondering around like fools and Marlon was flirting with Felicity. Sometimes I wonder about him.
When Fancy's aunt approached me, I was really nervous; for no reason really. Looking deep into her soft brown eyes calmed my nerves instantly.
" Hello! toi must be Michael. Fancy's told me so much about you!" She smiled softly, extending her hand out to mine. I smile back. " Yep, that's me. She's told me some things about toi too. Nice to toi meet toi Miss.Moore!"
Her smile dropped. " Please, don't call me Miss. Moore. It makes me feel old. Call me Colette." I nodded hesitantly. " Oh, sorry Colette."
Colette seemed pretty nice, just slightly stuck up but nice. Fancy and I were in the living room with my brothers and Felicity discussing funny moments that happened back in Gary.

Early January
Michael's P.O.V.
Laughs filled the air when Jermaine went face down into the snow. His face and afro was covered in snow and ice, his clothes were wet from laying in the snow so long. We were just finished playing in a snowball fight that ended with drastic results. The tempature dropped lower and lower, the wind picked up and the snow hit down on us like sharp pieces of glass. Mother pushed us back into the house while Fancy and Felicity went home. The rest of the jour was terrifying for us, especially Janet, who was crying all jour long.

Fancy's P.O.V.
Mid July
The sun beated down on our heads while the moist hot air ran it's fingers through my hair. Michael and I were sitting in the herbe eating our popsicles watching cars drive by. All jour long, we were playing tag and jumping rope; just playing basically. Sweat dripped down our faces but that didn't stop us. We played all jour until night time when our mothers begged us to come inside to eat and go to bed. Michael and I were insperable.
Fancy's P.O.V.
I sat in Michael's lap on the sofa like I always did. Having him here suivant to me is always thrilling, I have a best friend, a boyfriend and a lover in him. He always told me that he would be there for me no matter what, that I got a friend in him. He's been there for me for as long as I can remember. When my parents fought, when I sprained my wrist, when I had to get some teeth pulled out; practically everything. Words fail me to tell toi how much I l’amour him...
