I was sitting in the car, wondering where we were going for the last two hours. My mom was driving, being very secretive, and my little brother was sitting next to me smirking into his Gameboy. We were about 2 hours away from Los Angeles, where we lived. I had never been in this area before, but as much as I begged, my mother wouldn't tell me why she was bringing us here.

I tried again. "Mom, just tell me finally. I understand, you've been keeping this trip a secret for the whole week, but it's making me so anxious, and you wo smiling like freaks" I rolled my eyes. My mother just smiled and looked at me through the rear-view mirror. Then, finally, she seemed to give in.

"Tay, tell your sister where we are going." She told my little brother Taylor.

"Ok, ready Susan? You're not gonna believe this" He grinned and put his Gameboy down to look at me. I raised my eyebrows

"We are going to visit Michael Jackson" He smiled widely and looked at me with anticipation, my mom smirking widely. I didn't smile. "Ok Tay, don't fool with me, tell me where we are going." I shook my head. I couldn't believe this, it was insane!

My brother looked at me and furrowed his brows. "It's true" He just said and went back to playing on his gadget.

I swallowed. "Seriously mom?" Michael Jackson! Geez! I looked out the window of the car, the desert area, the mountains and the tiny curvy roads, it all did look so similar to the pictures taken of Neverland, but could it be true?

Then I remembered. About a year ago, my brother had participated in a contest. The grand price was to get to live one month at Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch. The whole thing was only possible for us to join, because Taylor was handicapped, he sat in a wheelchair. When he was 3 years old, my dad and him got into a terrible car crash, that took my fathers life and left Taylor confined to the wheelchair.

"So, guys, you are saying Taylor won that contest from last year?" I covered my mouth with my hands.

My mother smiled and nodded her head yes. "Surprise honey. I thought we wouldn't tell you beforehand because you'd go nuts, just, stay calm and be your sweet charming self."

I couldn't believe it, this had to be a dream come true! I was in LOVE with Michael Jackson, really deeply in love. Some would call that a crazy fan girl, which I sometimes agreed with. And now, I was about to meet this man! Just a month earlier he had released his music video for the song In The Closet and I was all over that, he looked so sexy.

"Mom, I can't...I mean...how can you do this to me, I won't be able to say a word when I meet him!" I frantically stared out the window and my mother just shook her head giggling.

I had a problem, a real problem. My hands were shaking, my mouth was dry. Then the car stopped, right in front of the first gates to Neverland. These minutes were just like a dream; after the guard had opened the metal gates, we were driving along the street, the grass became greener and I could make out a lake and houses on the property. I started to recognize the place; I had seen it in photographs. My mother parked the car and waited until a guard came up to her. I stay put on my seat, looking out the window, taking in the mesmerizing view.

"Susan, can you come here please" She suddenly called me. I looked through the other window and saw that there was Michael, talking to my mother and Taylor, surrounded by a couple of security guards.

For a second I forgot how to breathe, but then I pulled myself together and opened the door of the car, stepping out and walking to them.

They all looked at me, probably because I had stayed in the car for so long. I smirked shyly and the bodyguard shook my hand.

"Hi, I'm Wayne, I hope you had a nice journey." This man was huge! He wore a black suit and his grip was really strong. I smiled and muttered something, then glanced at Michael.

My gaze met his we both smirked. He was standing there, his arms behind his back, wearing a white shirt with a black button up over it. His curls were in a pony tail. He looked incredibly handsome.

"You are Susan?" He asked, and I couldn't help but grin. He actually said my name. Gosh, I had to stop with these thoughts, I would be here for a month! This couldn't go on like this.

"Yes, nice to meet you" I walked towards him and shook his hand.

"It's good to see you too" He smiled and looked me right in the eyes. I was mesmerized by his stare right then and there. He appeared to me smiling with his eyes.

"So, you're gonna be staying at the guest house, I'm sure we'll see each other tomorrow. I hope you enjoy your time here, you are very welcome here" He said and nervously stepped on his toes. He was adorable and charming, I couldn't help but smile. He made us immediately feel comfortable.

"Thank you so much" My mother said and watched as Michael messed his Taylors hair. My brother was totally chill, I couldn't even believe it.

"We will let you settle down now, see you tomorrow" Wayne, the bodyguard, said and Michael waved goodbye as he walked to the main house. I started at my mother in disbelief.

We went to the guest house, which was really like a miniature house. I had my own room with view of the lake and Taylor had a room with a sign that said "Kids Kingdom" over it. I loved the house so much, it was beautiful and charismatic, but most importantly it was Michael's creating and everything was even more beautiful than I could've ever imagined.

That night, I was awake for a long time, just thinking about Michael. I couldn't wait until the next day, and I couldn't know how quickly Michael would become so important to me.
