Previously
Justin kissed Michael,their love flowing again through each other. No more words were spoken.They just held each other. Both lay there thinking about Daniel.About all they had both learned today. They both believed that this was something more,that Daniel was indeed with Michael,and he would watch over him. He would watch over both of them. Michael felt safe,knowing that Daniel was with him,and that Justin was with him even more. Justin felt that he was protected,protected by Daniel's love for Michael. Together he and Daniel would keep Michael safe until all this was finished. Whatever lay ahead,Justin would never deny his love for Michael. Together they lay,their arms around each other,lost in their love for each other,their eyes slowly closing,both falling into a light sleep. In the far corner of the bedroom two invisible figures stood,looking at both of the young men sleeping. Their eyes were filled with tears,tears for their beloved Michael. Some tears were of joy,joy that these two souls had found each other,that Justin loved Michael and now Michael had accepted his love for Justin. But some of the tears were for the pain,and sorrow to come. They couldn't stop fate,or stop god's designs. All they could do was be there for both of them.What happened in the end was Michael's choice. Daniel walked over to the bed,leaning down,kissing Michael lightly on his lips.Michael stirred a little,but not waking. Daniel then looked at Justin,and leaning over Michael,kissed Justin on his lips,a small smile erupting on his sleeping face. "My love is with you both,keep it in your hearts." He stood up again,turning and smiling at the other person. The other person walked over to the bed,looking down at both men. Tears were still in her eyes. The young beautiful woman stood still looking at her sweet child. Diana smiled at both of them,her love for both shining around her. "Sleep well my son,your true love will be there for you always,as well as Daniel and myself."
Chapter 21
Michael woke from his dreamless sleep,seeing the brightness of the day through his window.He looked to his right seeing the bed was empty. Where was Justin? Michael looked at the clock on the night stand,seeing it was 11:30. He had been asleep for about two hours. He got up,stretching, then walking out of the bedroom down the hall into the living room. Justin sat on the couch,Daniel's journals in his lap. He looked up at Michael when he came into the room. Justin smiled at Michael,patting the couch beside him indicating where he wanted Michael. Michael smiled his special smile,the one he had for Justin only. Michael sat down beside Justin,snuggling up to him. "I have just been reading Daniel's journals.Your right Mikey,he was a very together guy.His writing is just as deep and special as yours." Michael beamed,happy in Justin's praise. "He really loved you,so much,and so deeply.I can see how easy that can happen." Justin kissed him on the lips,no pretense behind his meaning. Michael kissed back. "Yes,Jus,he loved me in ways that I couldn't love him.But I did love him,as my younger brother." Justin smiled,he knew what Michael was trying to say. "I'm not jealous,Michael.I think I am beginning to love Daniel as much as you did.I see no threat from him,I see everything you meant to him,and I see that he wants me to be with you.He knows that I can make you happy,thats why he came to me.To get me to see it too." Michael's love for Justin increased. That this beautiful man could love Daniel without feeling threatened,said volumes to Michael. Justin's heart was as large as his love. Justin set the journals down,snuggling into Michael's chest,Michael putting his arms around him. "So,my special angel,did you miss me?" Justin asked,kissing Michael's neck. "Yes,I missed you.I'm your special angel?" Justin looked up at him,smiling. "Yep.Your my boyfriend,my lover,my angel.I wish I could shout it out for the world to hear." Justin's face took on a sad look. "Jus,its okay.I understand what your saying,and feeling.I know you can't do that.Your career is important to you,it is your life.I understand that at this time in your life you need it to feel complete.I would never ask you to jeopardize that to make me happy.Understand?" "Michael,I wish I could tell the world what you mean to me.I want to make you a promise here today.That someday,someday soon,the world will know.And I will be the happiest man that day,for I will get to show the world the greatest love I have ever known." "The only person that I care about is you,Jus.To me thats enough.When you and I are together,alone,its only you and I.The rest of the world doesn't matter.When I am with you,like now,you are all I need,all I want." Michael kissed him deeply on the lips,sliding back on the couch,Justin falling on top of Michael,his body sinking into Michael's,the two of them connected perfectly. This felt so natural,so good to Justin. Here he was with the man he loved under him,the two of them kissing,no hidden desire,just being with each other. They broke the kiss,Michael holding Justin in his arms. "So, whats up with my love.Does he still want to go shopping,or does he want to lay here all day?" "Well as much as that sounds like heaven,I do need some things,toothbrush,shaving stuff,cologne,etc.How about we go to that mall you talked about.I still want to buy you something special." Michael blushed,Justin still wanted to do that for him. "Ok,Mr.Timberlake,but first we got to get you a better disguise that that hat and glasses.If you get off me,you horn dog,I will see what I can come up with." "How about I stay right here and see what I can cum up with." Justin wrinkled his eyebrows seductively. "Do I have to get a hose?" "Is that an offer?" Michael started laughing,His laugh filled the small room,making Justin smile widely. Justin got up,pulling Michael up with him. "You give Lonnie a shout,so he can drive us, and I will see what I can find." Justin smiled,grabbing his cell phone out of his pocket,calling Lonnie. Michael went out of the room. Shortly Michael came back with a bunch of clothes and a small case. "Lonnie said he's be here in about twenty minutes." "Stand up sweetie." Justin stood up,cocking his eyebrow at Michael. "What are you up to?" "Just making you into a better man,love." Justin stood still while Michael pulled a black hooded sweatshirt over Justin's head.Then he helped him on with a black long trench coat.He put a heavy silver cross over Justin's head so it dangled on his chest. Next came out the case. "This wipes off easy,Jus,so its not permanent." Justin stood still as Michael dabbed Justin' face with makeup.Then he applied a black charcoal base to both of his eyes. The final touch was a black bandana,which cover all Justin's head.Michael pinned a silver cross to the left side of Justin's chest. "There,meet Jason Warner,goth kid extroidinare." Michael led Justin over to the mirror on the wall. What showed back at him was amazing. It didn't look like Justin at all. It looked like a goth kid,all dark black clothing,a white pasty face,with darker sunken eyes. Michael put up the hood on the sweatshirt to finish the affect. "Oh wow,Mike.That doesn't look like me at all,it looks just like some kid who hangs out at the mall.I have seen dozens of these kids." "Thats the point,you blend in more now.Sure,you stand out to older people because of your image,but to younger people,you'll just look like a goth kid." Justin smiled,his smile becoming a big grin. "Your amazing,Mikey." "Hey,goth kids don't smile.Remember that." Justin took on a somber look,it matched the outfit perfectly. Michael laughed."Perfect." They heard a horn beeping,Lonnie had arrived. They both headed out the door,Justin eager to show Lonnie his new look. "You wait in the hallway for a few moments,then come out.Try walking differently and more assertive,like the world's your enemy,got it? Lets see if Lonnie pegs you.Ok,Jus?" Justin nodded,looking around,and quickly kissing Michael on the lips. "Sorry man,I'm taken." Justin laughed,smacking Michael's butt. Michael smiled and headed outside. Lonnie was standing beside the SUV waiting for them. "Hey Lon man,how ya doing." Michael hugging him when he got to the vehicle. "Doing great,Michael.Where's the other part of this twosome?" "He's preaming himself,what do you think?" "Yeah that's the Justin I know." Lonnie laughed. In a few moments Lonnie looked up at a figure walking out of the building.Lonnie had seen a lot of goth kids around,at malls and on streets,it just looked like another one of them. He leaned against the SUV waiting for Justin. "It could be a while kid,want to hop in the car?" "Nah, I will wait for him here." Michael said smiling. The goth kid came down the steps,walking hunched over a bit,looking mean. "Hey man,got a cig?" The stranger growled to Lonnie. "Beat it kid,don't hang around here." "Hey man,its a free world,ya don't own it." "I'll own a piece of your ass,if you don't split." "How about you cutie,you want a piece of my ass too."The kid winked at Michael,Michael almost bursting out laughing. Lonnie's anger took over. "Now thats it.You had your chance,asshole.I'm gonna tear you a new one." Lonnie started towards him. "Back off Lonnie.I can take care of him." Michael said,stopping Lonnie with his hand. Lonnie looked at Michael,not wanting the kid to get hurt.He stood still,ready to pounce on the stranger if he touched Michael. Michael walked up to the kid,looking him in the eyes. "Damn right,I want a piece of that fine ass." He leaned ahead,kissing the kid on the lips. Lonnie stood there stunned. Both men started laughing,Lonnie speechless. "Its,me Lon.Justin?" Justin looking at him,his voice normal now. Lonnie looked totally shocked.He stared at him,finally seeing him for real. "Holy shit.I didn't recognize you at all.You look like any goth kid." Justin beamed, smiling at Michael. "Lonnie ,this is my friend Jason Warner.A.K.A. Justin Timberlake." Michael started laughing,Justin,then Lonnie joining in. "Ok,guys.Ya got me.Good one.Great disguise, Justin,you'll be okay for sure today at the mall." Lonnie smiled. "I owe it all to this man right here." Michael smiled."Lets get in the SUV,someone offered me a piece of ass,I believe." MIchael patted Justin's butt. Justin's mouth dropped a bit,taken aback by Michael's luridness. Michael started laughing again. "Man,Jason,your the best.I thought nothing shocked goth kids." His laughter continuing as he climbed into the back seat. Lonnie was laughing again too,as they left Justin standing on the side walk in shock. Justin climbed into the back seat. Michael smiled at him,knowing Justin was still a little shocked at Michael's forwardness. He leaned in,kissing his lips lightly. "Your too easy,Jus.you walked right into it."Michael smiled at him,his smile becoming infectious. Justin finally smiled back,forgiving him for making fun of him. "I'll get you back,don't worry." "Thats what I am counting on." Michael smiled sexily. Justin wrapped his arm around Michael. "To the mall,Lonnie.Shopping awaits!" Lonnie laughed pulling off the curb heading down the road. After ten minutes and some directions for Michael they were walking it a large mall entrance. Justin was strutting around in his new found freedom,not really getting many looks,mostly only from older people. All the younger ones seemed to ignore him. Justin was in heaven.He felt so free. Lonnie and Michael were smiling at him,liking this new assertive Justin. They walked around together shopping in stores. Justin had bought five different outfits,which was strange since he only had three days left in town. Michael didn't say anything,he knew the stories about Justin's mall desires were true now. Justin and Michael seperated for a while,Justin saying he wanted to buy something for him.Michael reluctantly agreed,still not comfortable with Justin's buying him things. Two can play that game,sweetie,Michael thought. He'd find something for Justin. After about an hour they met again at the pre-arranged place. They were standing together,bags in hand,when Justin's stomach started growling. "Looks like the tiger needs to be fed." Michael smiled. Lonnie laughed. "That tiger is always hungry." "Lets hit that Burger King beside the toy store." Justin pointed. All three walked over to the open restaurant,grabbing a table,Lonnie offering to go up and order for them. Justin and Michael sat down looking out into the mall. Justin's hand went under the table,holding Michael's. Michael smiled. Nothing was said between them, no need for words,the touch was enough. Lonnie returned shortly with their burgers and fries,and three milkshakes.There was also a couple of extra boxes of fries for both Justin and Michael. Michael looked at Lonnie,raising an eyebrow. "You'll find out shortly." Lonnie said quietly to Michael. They dug into their food,laughing and talking away.Soon it was all consumed except for Michael's last box of fries. Justin was eyeing them nonchalantly. Michael clued into what Lonnie was doing. "Well, I am full.Do you want this last box of fries,Lonnie?" Michael piped up. "Nah,thanks bud,couldn't eat another bite.Guess I got too much.Why don't you throw it out." "I hate to see food go to waste.Oh well." Michael got up with the box in his hand. The look on Justin's face was priceless.Michael knew he wanted them but wouldn't ask,he didn't want to look like a hungry pig. "Oh,hey,I know what I can do with them." Michael said,looking at Lonnie's smiling face. "What,is there a farm around here,do they have a pig we could feed them to,Michael?" Justin's head went down,his cheeks blushing red. "Actually,I was going to offer them to the first cute guy who came along,you know, as bait." Justin's head came up,seeing Michael smiling at him. Lonnie started laughing,trying to hold it in. Michael took a fry out of the box,and set it down in front of Justin. "Hey sexy,come here often." Justin smiled,popping the fry in his mouth. Michael fed him another one by hand,Justin licking his fingers after. "Why,I do believe I have hooked a big one." Lonnie couldn't contain it any more,his laughter erupted,drawing looks from other people. Michael and Justin both joined in,creating a bond between the three of them. After a few minutes they settled down,just quietly relaxing. Justin finished the fries,not embarassed any more. Michael started looking around at the people,just mall watching. His eyes fell on a little girl standing in front of the toy store window. She had to be about five years old.Standing beside her was a young woman,who obviously was her mother.She was tall,short black hair,strikingly beautiful. All of a sudden,Michael's senses started bristling. He stared at the two of them,suddenly seeing a blue aura around them. Michael felt the world slowly retreat from around him,his thoughts zeroing in on the little girl. He felt a feeling he'd not had for a while. His mind filled with the little girl's thoughts.
what a beautiful dolly, the little girl thought. Its so beautiful,I love the red dress she has on. If she was mine,I'd call her Tina,just like mommie. I wish I could have her,but mommie says no. We can't afford it. Mommie's job went away,she needs to save money so she can find us a home. Grannie's is too small for us. Maybe Santa will bring me the dolly. The little girl looked up talking to her mom,a look of hope on her face. Her face changed back again to a sad one. Mommy said santa probably wouldn't be able to bring it. Oh well, its enough that I have my mommy,thats all I need. But I sure wish I had my Tina to love too.
Michael felt the sweetness and innocence of the small child.He felt all her thoughts.He learned all about her through her thoughts,and all about her mother. Sweet little Rebecca,yes her name was Rebecca. Justin was looking at Michael,seeing the change in him.He seemed to zone out,deep in his thoughts.There was a single tear running down his cheek. Justin got worried. "You okay,Mikey?" Looking at him with concern. Justin put his hand on top of Michael's looking into his eyes. He thought he saw a yellow glow deep in his eyes,as if their goldeness was glowing. Then it was gone as quickly as it had shown itself and Michael shuddered. He focused his eyes on Justin's and smiled. "Can I borrow your cell for a minute Justin?" Justin handed the phone over to Michael. Michael stood up,walked a piece aways from Justin and Lonnie,dialing a number.He talked for a few minutes,then hung up,walking back to Justin and Lonnie,handing the phone back. "I have something I have to do Justin.Can you wait right here for a few minutes?" "Okay,Mikey.But are you sure your okay?" "I have never felt better." He winked at Justin. Lonnie and Justin sat at the table watching Michael walk across the mall and enter the toy store across from them. They both looked at each other wondering why Michael would go into a toy store. After about fifteen minutes, Michael walked out of the toy store carrying a gift-wrapped box. He also had a santa hat in his left hand. He looked around as if he were looking for someone.He closed his eyes for a moment as if he was concentrating on something.Then he opened them and smiled.He turned left and started walking down the mall. Justin and Lonnie looked at each other,Justin gettin up and starting to head down the mall going after Michael.Lonnie got up,throwing their garbage quickly into a trash can,leaving their empty trays on top.He rushed after Justin. They caught up to Michael about two hundred yards down the mall. "Where are you going,Michael?" Justin asked when he had caught up to him,walking beside him. "There's something I need to do for someone." Was all Michael said. "Okay,babe.What's in the box?" "Something for someone special." Justin took a quick look at Lonnie,who just shrugged his shoulders. They walked with Michael down the mall realizing that he was searching for someone. "Who are you looking for Michael?" Michael stopped suddenly,spotting them beside a mail box a short distance in front of him. The two hadn't spotted the three men yet. Michael turned looking at Justin and Lonnie,a big smile on his face. "Would you guys stay right here and hide behind this post.And please,whatever you do,don't come near us.Your disguise might scare a small child,Justin.Santa doesn't hang out with goth kids." Michael winked at Justin. Justin nodded his head wondering what Michael was up to.Both him and Lonnie moved over,concealing themselves behind the large post,but still had a good view of Michael and the woman with the small child. Michael donned the santa hat,looking quickly at Justin,the smile still on Michael's face. Michael approached the small girl with her mother. "Merry Christmas." Michael smiled at both of them. The mother looked at Michael pulling her child close to her. "Merry Christmas,but its a bit early.Its only November 28th." The woman said,looking at Michael with concern. Justin and Lonnie could hear everything that was being said between them all. "Its never too early to wish people joy and happiness." Michael smiled looking down at the child as he bent to his knees. "I'm wondering if you could help me,sunshine.I am looking for a special child,her name is Rebecca,but her mommie calls her Becky." The little girl's eyes grew large. "My name is Becky,well actually Rebecca." "Well hi there, Rebecca.My name is Michael." She shyly looked at him,smiling. "My mommy says I shouldn't talk to strangers." "Your mommy is right,never talk to people you don't know.But your mommy is right here with you,so you can ask her if its okay." The little girl looked up at her mother,her mother smiled. "Yes,Becky, you can talk to the young man." Her mother said,still watching Michael. The child looked back at Michael. "Hi,Michael." She said shyly.Michael smiled a warm smile. "I ran into someone this morning,Rebecca.He asked me to give you something." Michael brought the gift out from behind his back. The little girls eyes grew larger,with joy on her face. "What is it?" She said with wonder in her voice. "Its a gift from Santa,Rebecca.Santa said that you have been really good this year,always listening to your mommy,never asking for anything for yourself.Always being a wonderful child.Am I right?" Michael smiled up at the young woman. "Yes,Becky has been an angel." Becky smiled up at her mother. "Thats why Santa wanted you to have this early,he wants you to be happy,Rebecca." Michael handed the gift to Becky,her eyes wide with wonder. "Go ahead,baby.Take it." Her mother said. Becky reached out taking the present from Michael. "Thank you,Michael." Becky smile at him. "Yes,thank you,Michael."The young lady said. Michael smiled at both of them. "Don't thank me, thank Santa.I am just the messenger." Becky smiled at Michael,her eyes moving to the package in her hands. "Do I wait till Christmas?" She said looking at Michael. "Of course not,Rebecca.Santa said you deserve to have it right now.Go ahead,open it." Becky started unwrapping the paper,finding a box underneath.Her mother who had bent down to help her,took the paper from her helping her open the box. When her mother had opened the box,Becky let out a loud squeal picking up the doll from inside of the box. "It's the doll in the window mommy! Its the one I wanted." She wrapped the doll in her arms,her smile was large and she was jumping around. "Santa said her name is Tina." Michael said. "Yes, yes.That what I wanted to call her.Its mommy's name." "Yes, I know." Michael smiled. The young woman stood up,looking at Michael with wonder. Michael stood up also,smiling at the young woman. "Hello,Christina.Santa has something for you also.Santa knows your troubles and your distress,and he wants to give you your christmas gift early too." Michael reached inside his coat,pulling out an envelope. "Merry Christmas." He handed it to the woman,her eyes never leaving his. She knew in her heart he wasn't going to hurt them,all she saw was happiness and joy in his golden brown eyes.She felt he was someone very special himself. She took the envelope from Michael,his smile never leaving his face. She opened it up,looking at a christmas card. She opened it to reveal a small card inside. Inside the christmas card was written:
Merry Christmas,Christina
Happiness is always found in a child's eyes.
Never give up hope.
Love,a friend.
"The small card has an address on if for Vispacio Restaurante.It's an italian restaurant on the west side.Its close to my own home.I know the owner,Vito Vispacio really well.You have an interview with him tomorrow morning at 9:00 a.m. for a position as head hostess.That's your line of work,isn't it?" The woman looked totally shocked. "How did you know I was looking for work." Michael smile,looking down at Becky. "Why,Rebecca told Santa." Becky grinned up at Michael. Christina had tears in her eyes now,realizing what all this meant. That she might now have a job,and she would be able to keep Becky with her,not be seperated from her child. "This is impossible." Michael looking into her moist eyes. "Everything is possible if you believe." Christina hugged Michael to her,regardless that she didn't really know him. "Thank you,thank you,Michael.You don't know what this means to me." Michael now had a tear in his eye. "Don't thank me...." "I know,thank Santa." Christina said smiling among her tears,finishing his sentence for him. Michael smiled. He felt a tug on his jacket,and looked down at Becky looking up at him. He bent down,to her level. Becky set her new doll down. She put her arms around his neck,kissing him on the cheek. "Thats for Santa,Michael.Will you be sure he gets it." Michael's eyes were now watery. "I will make sure,Rebecca." "Its time to go sweetie." Christina smiled at her daughter. Michael stood up,Christina shaking his hand. "Merry Christmas,Michael." Michael hugged her again. "Merry Christmas, Christina." The two of them walked away from Michael,looking back one final time.smiling and waving, before dissappearing around a corner. Michael removed his santa hat wiping his eyes,then turning to find Justin and Lonnie standing in front of the post looking at him with moist eyes. Michael looked at them shyly,then walked over to a nearby bench and sat down. Justin sat down beside him on the bench,and without hesitation gave him a hug. Lonnie sat on the other side of Michael. "Michael,I have seen and met a lot of nice people in my life,but you man,you take the cake." Lonnie said,sobbing and wiping his eyes with a hankerchief. Michael smiled at him,but didn't say anything. Justin felt Michael was unsure about what they were thinking of him. "Mikey,you just made two people really happy.The looks on their faces said it all.Your one very special man,Michael" Justin quickly kissed him on the lips,looking around first. Michael could see the tears in Justin's eyes,knowing he meant it. "Thank you,Jus.Thanks,Lon." Justin was still wondering about a few things,so he asked. "How did you know the little girl wanted the doll,and that her mother was out of work?How did you find out their names?" Michael was quiet for a few moments.Then he looked up at Justin with sad eyes. "Because Becky told me." Michael got up walking away from them. Justin looked at Lonnie,who just shook his head. They both got up following after Michael. They walked beside him for a while not saying anything. "I'd rather not talk about it just yet,Jus.Lon?" Both guys put their hand on Michael's shoulder. "Sure thing,Michael." Lonnie said. "Ok,babe."Justin said tenderly. They walked around for a while going into a few more stores,Lonnie and Justin buying a few things,Michael just sitting or standing quietly around.He would talk if they asked an opinion on something. Gradually he started talking more,but still Justin could feel something was weighing heavy on Michael's mind. And what had happened was weighing on Justin's.
Christina and Becky were finished running errands at the mall,just finishing a dish of ice cream together. Christina was thinking about the young man who had brought such hope into her life,and such joy into her little girl's heart.The man was nothing short of remarkable. She had an interview finally,after being out of work for almost a year. The restaurant sounded nice,and she was sure that if Michael said that Vito was a good man,then he definitely was. She hoped above all else that she got the job. And she could save some money so her and Becky,with her own mother could find a bigger place.Times had been hard for Christina after her husband had been killed in a car accident.She felt so alone,so terrified that she couldn't support her daughter,that she would have to leave her with her mother and take that job in Elgin which would mean she would only see her on weekends. She looked at the christmas card again.Yes, you had to have hope.Michael had given her hope again.She smiled for the first time in a long time. She got up and guided Becky out of the mall restaurant and started for home. They had to take the bus home,which meant going out the east end exit,which was a more dreary secluded area. Christina was watching Becky not paying attention to the two men she walked past and the looks they had given her. She didn't even see them start to follow her after a few minutes. She walked out of the exit heading down the dark alley to the waiting bus stop. She didn't know they were there until she felt the cold hands around her throat.
Justin and Lonnie had their arms full of bags when they made it back to the car.Michael had only three small bags. Lonnie was putting it all in the back of the SUV,Justin climbing into the vehicle after Michael. Justin was smiling and happy for the fun afternoon,even more happy that he'd spent it with Michael. He kissed him passionately,his makeup rubbing on Michael's face. "Justin,take that makeup of if your going to kiss me,I don't want white lips." Lonnie laughed from the back,moving the bags around. Michael handed Justin his hankerchief.Justin rubbed his face, removing all the white makeup.He now looked like the man Michael had come to love. They kissed deeply,tasting each other's tongues. "Mmmmm,been waiting for that all afternoon." Justin purred. Michael smiled back at him,his lips swollen from Justin's sucking. Suddenly Michael's mind filled with an image,he saw Christina being dragged behind a dumpster,Becky was screaming. Justin saw Michael's face go white.He saw terror in his eyes. "Oh god,no.Leave them alone!" Michael screamed. Lonnie almost fell forward as he was getting into the SUV. Justin stood still,stunned. Before he could do anything Michael was flinging the door open,leaping out of the vehicle.He ran across the parking lot,as if he was running for his life. Justin struggled to undo his seatbelt,jumping out of the SUV,Lonnie close behind. They took off after Michael,who had a surmiseable lead on them.The man was fast.
Michael was running,not for his life, but for Christina's and Becky's. He saw it all in his mind, the vision of their ambush,the two filthy men who had them,what they were intending to do.He had to get there,he had to save them. Michael raced around the east side of the mall,heading for the darkened alley,he knew where they were. He approached the alley with caution,all his senses on edge.He could feel them,knew they were close.He heard a soft whimper,like someone's mouth was covered. Michael walked down the dark alley seeing the dumpster on the left hand side. He slowly walked around it,seeing a terrifying sight. Christina was laying on the ground, a man was on top of her,hitting her.He was trying to rip her clothes off,she was crying. "Mommy!" Michael looked to his right,seeing Becky being held down by another man,who had his hands under her dress. All the anger inside Michael welled up,focusing on the man with Becky.His eyes took on a golden glow deep inside. He ran straight at him,throwing himself on top of him,knocking him off her. In an instant Michael was on his feet,punching the man in the face.His first punch crashed into his teeth,knocking a few flying. His elbow connected with the man's ribs,sucking the air out of his lungs.And his knee smashed into his groin.The man went down like a sac of cement. Michael didn't hesitate, he ran at the other man,who had only just realized that someone else was there. He realized it too late. Michael's foot connected with his jaw,sending the man flying backwards.He landed on his back,the wind knocked out of him. Michael stopped,looking at him,just dying to take another hit at him. He looked down at Christina,who was looking up at him,crying. "Help my baby,protect her.Please?" Michael rushed over to Becky,picking her up in his arms. He brought her over to Christina. She held her in her arms,clinging onto her,ready to give her life if they came at her again. Rebecca was screaming for her Tina. Michael rushed over and picked the doll up. He brought the doll over,putting it gently in Becky's outreached hands. Becky immediately quieted down. Michael was looking at her lovingly,not hearing the man sneaking up on him with a iron bar in his hand.
Justin and Lonnie saw Michael heading into the dark alley,both of them trying to catch up to him. When they reached the alley,they just caught the tail end of Michael's battle. Both men stood in awe,seeing Michael fighting like a seasoned pro. He totally destroyed both men. Then they realized what was going on,seeing Michael carrying Becky over to her mother.Then he ran back over,carrying the doll with him. Justin caught the movement out of the corner of his eye.He saw the man and realized that Michael hadn't. Justin screamed seeing the iron pipe coming down on Michael's head.
Michael heard the scream,he knew it was Justin.He knew why he was screaming. Old reflexes,born and breed in Michael took over. He leaped up,curving his body in a ninety degree angle ,the pipe missing his head by a fraction,crashing into the pavement. Michael's legs flipped around hitting the man in the chest,propelling him sideways. Michael was on his feet in a second, standing ready to defend his friends.Both men were on their feet,both sluggish. Both ran at Michael. Michael set into motion his defenses. His feet leapt into the air,a graceful,deadly ballet of might. His fist connected with the jaw of one man,sending his head flying back. The other man received a foot to the groin,sending him to his knees. Before he hit the ground his face received a punch,knocking him unconscious. The other man had recovered.He looked at Michael,seeing his golden eyes staring at him,death pouring out of them.Michael's fists were ready for destruction. The man turned to run,but being slow his back felt the weight of Michael's knee colliding with it. He fell face down,collapsing in a heap.Michael landing on top of him.He struggled to get up. Michael knocked him down with a punch to the back of the neck.He stayed down,motionless. Michael quickly got up,scanning the area,seeking out danger and finding none. He looked quickly at Justin and Lonnie,both men standing there stunned. Justin looked into his eyes,their golden orbs seem brighter,then dimmed quickly. Michael bowed his head,not wanting to look at Justin. He turned running back to Christina and Becky. Christina looked at him with wonder too. "Are you okay? Did they hurt you?" Christina started crying,Michael hugging her to him,but she was still clinging onto Becky. "Justin, come here quickly." That broke Justin's silence.Michael needed him.He ran to him.Lonnie right behind him. He rushed up,jumping over the unconscious man. "Hold onto Rebecca,while I attend to Christina." Becky looked up at Michael. "This is my friend,Justin.He wants to help you,Rebecca.He's one of Santa's helpers too." Michael smiled at the child. She smiled back, jumping up into Justin's lap.Justin held her close smiling down at her. "Hi,I'm Justin." "I'm Rebecca.Thats my mom and my friend,Michael.He's your friend too.Right?" "Yep,Michael is my best friend." Rebecca smiled,putting her head on Justin's shoulder. Michael thought Justin looked so beautiful with a child in his arms. He turned back to Christina,seeing where she was hurt. He determined she had a lot of cuts and bruises on her arms and her neck.Her right wrist looked broken.Michael gently put his hand on top of it.He closed his eyes. Christina opened her eyes in wonder. She saw a faint blue glow on her wrist,all the pain leaving it. Justin and Lonnie just stared,thunderstruck. Michael broke the contact,falling on his knees taking in a deep breath. Justin thought he looked in pain. He got back up on his knees,tending to Christina again. "Lonnie,call 911.Get a police car here before these goons wake up,and get an ambulance too." Lonnie flipped his phone open,dialing 911. Justin looked at Michael,looking into his eyes. He saw pain there,also shame. Michael turned his eyes away from him. Christina looked at both of them,seeing that something was going on between them.She looked at the other stranger,realizing who he was. "My god,your Justin Timberlake." Michael realized suddenly what that meant. "Yes,Christina.He's my best friend.He was here at the mall with me.Please,Christina,don't tell anyone you have seen him here today." "All right Michael,if you need that privacy,certainly." Michael smiled at her. Michael got up,kissing her gently on the cheek."You lay right there,don't move." Michael picked up Rebecca out of Justin's arms,she hugged close to Michael's chest. "Justin,you and Lonnie have got to go now." "What,no way,Michael.You need us here." Justin's protective side coming out. "Justin think of the cops,and the press.Do you want to be in the center of this?" Justin bowed his head as Lonnie walked up to them. "Cops are on the way,mall security should be here any minute." "You guys gotta scram,right now.Lonnie take him back to my place.I gotta stay here,and see to Christina and everything else." Michael handed Lonnie his house keys. "Can you pick up Nana too on your way? I will try and get back as soon as possible,I just want to make sure these two girls are going to be okay.All right?" "Sure thing,Michael.Come on,Justin.Michael's right.You don't need to be in the center of this." Justin looked at Michael,his eyes full of hurt,hurt that he couldn't stay here and that Michael didn't want him here. Michael put his hand on Justin's shoulder. Looking into Michael's eyes,Justin saw the love was still there. Justin walked away with Lonnie,looking back at Michael several times. Michael sat back down beside Christina as the mall security men came running down the alley. Michael looked at the small figures of Justin and Lonnie fading into the distance. Oh,god,its all over now. How can he love me after this? He will leave me,I know it.
