Returning To The Mansion
Katie parked the car when she got through the gates and got out with Janelle and helped get the bags from the romp, kofferbak of the car. Katie went up to the front door and opened it to see that the hallway leading to Janelle's room was not decorated, so it didn't give away that she was getting a surprise party. She led Janelle to her bedroom and once they got in, they sat the stuff down.
"Okay, Janelle...pick out what you're gonna wear." Katie said.
"Um...okay?" Janelle said, a bit confused.
She got two of the bags on the bed and took the items out and spread them out on the bed. Clothes on one side, shoes on the other. She picked out, from her clothes, a black and white striped tank top, boven and a pair of purple sequined pocket skinny jeans. (Me: Only because of Michael, he made the skinny jeans come in style as high water pants lol.) She looked through the shoes she got and picked out a pair of red sequined heels and black and red tennis shoes. Katie had an idea and told Janelle to keep the heels out and to change into the tennis shoes. Janelle went into her bathroom and changed into her tank top, skinny jeans and tennis shoes and came back out. Katie told Janelle to wait until later to put the heels on.
"Why should I wait, Katie?"
"Because u just should."
She shrugged her shoulders and soon, she was blindfolded.
"Ack! Katie! What's this for?"
"Can't tell you!" She giggled.
Katie led her carefully down the hall and down the stairs and out of the mansion, into the backyard where everything was set up.
"Katie, please, tell me what's going on!"
Katie giggled and removed the blindfold and shouted with everyone.
"Surprise!!" They all said.
Janelle jumped and almost landed on her butt. "Oh my gosh!"
Coraline giggled a little. "Happy birthday, mommy!" She said.
Katie was shocked. She was the only one that didn't know that Coraline was Janelle's daughter. (Me: Well, Michael doesn't know, either.) That was one thing that she really needed to talk to Janelle about. She knows Janelle doesn't like to get into too much detail about what happened to her, but it did actually explain a lot in her head about her cancelling their hangout sessions for a whole year. She shrugged it off for now, knowing that she can always ask about it later, and got beside her.
"Okay, everyone! Grab a bucket of water balloons and a super soaker! Let's see how many times we can hit Janelle!"
Janelle turned to Katie, a bit shocked. "And I don't get anything?"
"You can get a bucket of water balloons and a super soaker, too, Janelle."
Janelle got an evil look and went to hide. She was the fastest dodger and runner. (Me: It'll be proven if she's as fast as Michael later on.) While they were playing, Elizabeth saw a limo pull up and went over to see the window rolling down. Michael waved a little and giggled and Elizabeth went over to him.
"What are u doing here, Michael? I thought u had work." She asked.
"Well, I had a little break and decided that since I had signed a card for Janelle, I thought I'd get her something during break. So could u give this to her?" He said, handing Elizabeth the little package.
She took the package and nodded. "I'll be sure to give it to her. Don't worry."
He smiled a little. "Thank you, Liz." He looked over at them playing and sighed. "Man, I really don't like to work when there's something fun going on. I'm missing out on it."
"But u do have to get the album done, don't you?"
"Yes I do have to get it done. Oh and speaking of the album, my first song, Bad, is getting a short film done. We're holding auditions for it. I was hoping Janelle would be interested."
"She'll be over the moon, Michael. I'm sure she'd love to audition."
He giggled. "Alright. Well, tell her that the auditions are volgende week at the Motown Studios. I got permission from Berry Gordy to hold them there."
"Alright, Michael. Now u better get back to work."
"Yeah, I should probably get to work and finish this album. Thank u again, Liz."
"No problem. Have fun."
"I'll try." He giggled.
They waved goodbye and Bill (his driver, of course lol) drove him back to the studio to finish his recordings. Elizabeth went inside and placed Michael's present in the same place she hid the card and went back outside to be sure nobody got completely soaked.
After The Fight
Nobody got Janelle wet. She went through the fight...completely dry. (Me: Sound a bit familiar? Lol.) She managed to soak everyone else somehow, though. Nobody even got Coraline because she got her speed from her mother. Who else would she get it from? Not her so called 'father'. (Me: Note: Katie didn't know that it was her 25-year-old brother, Chris, that raped her. Coraline looks nothing like him, but she looks like Janelle and somehow she looks like Michael. Rather rare, if u ask me.)
Anyway, she went back inside and changed out of her tennis shoes and into her heels. She's never worn heels, so she had to take some time to get used to walking in them. She walked over to her mirror and Katie came into the room.
"Ready for your makeup?" Katie asked.
Janelle looked at Katie and nodded. "Yep, I'm ready." She said.
Katie picked up the makeup bag and spreaded it out on the bed. Janelle sat on a chair volgende to the bed and Katie kept looking through the makeup and at Janelle's eyes, being sure that the makeup would make her eyes pop and make her face glow a little. She took the foundation they got and started applying it to her face, making sure it would blend in with her skin. (Me: Side note, Katie is a makeup artist in training. Kinda like me with the whole cosmetology idea. I'm still hoping that one day, I can work with Paris while training under Karen Faye lol.) Once the foundation was fully blended, Katie took the purple and black eyeshadow and started applying it to her eyelids, making them blend as well. When she finished that, she put on the green sparkly eyeliner on the eyelid only, since it would get into the eyes if she applied it on the bottom as well and would cause irritation. After she applied it and once she finished applying the roze sparkly lip gloss on Janelle, she smiled.
"Take a look at yourself, Janelle."
Janelle turned to the mirror and her jaw dropped. "Oh my God, Katie...you made me look amazing."
"So...I did well?"
"Yes!"
She giggled and then led her back down the hall and down the stairs and into the dining room, where everyone, once Katie and Janelle walked in, started singing 'Happy Birthday' to her. After they finished singing to her, she blew out her candles and they all got their slices of cake to eat. Once they finished eating, they handed Janelle her presents, one door one, for her to open. She always loved presents, but since she was half of a Catholic (thanks to Elizabeth) and half of a Jehovah's Witness (unknown as to why), she always felt a little guilty on the inside. Once she finished opening up all of the presents (or the ones so far), she thanked everyone as they started to leave the mansion. (It was roughly maybe 6 of 7pm.)
She had received 2 necklaces, 2 sets of earrings, 2 bracelets, $1000 (she was happy about that), new clothes, just about everything she thought she'd never be able to get. That money came from Bryan since he wasn't able to make it. She texted him and told him 'thank you. Sorry u couldn't be here for the party.' One thing was missing, though...and it was something special...from a special person. Well, from 2 special people.
Later That Night
Janelle was in her room, reorganizing her makeup and her clothes and, from the corner of her eye, she saw her aunt come in with her hands behind her back. She turned to her and Elizabeth handed the first present and the card to Janelle. She took it and read the card out loud.
"Janelle, as your younger brother, I wish u the best in life. I love you, sis. Happy Birthday. Love, Ryan." She read.
She looked at the present and opened it to see a locket key-chain attachment with a picture of her and him in the hospital. She immediately put it on her key-chain set because that was one thing she didn't want to lose if it was the last thing she'd get from her brother...and it could possibly be the only memory she had left of him. She looked at Elizabeth and saw that she had a smile on her face, making Janelle confused.
"What's with that look, Aunt Liz?" She asked.
Elizabeth handed her the present first and kept the card behind her. She raised her eyebrow a little and opened it to see a halsketting, ketting and bracelet set with her name on it. She looked at her aunt.
"Who are these from?"
Her aunt's smile just got bigger and she handed Janelle the card. She got a suspicious look and opened the envelope and pulled out the card. She opened the card and saw a note on the blank side. She read this one to herself. It said:
Janelle,
u must be rather excited to be turning 21. Well, I'm rather as excited as u are. I remember turning 21...kinda haha. Janelle, your aunt is the sweetest woman I had ever met and ever became the best of vrienden with. You're lucky she's your aunt. She told me that u sing and dance like I do. I hope we can meet sometime in the future if we don't get the chance this year. I would really love to get to know meer about u and I'm sure you'd like to know meer about me if and when we do get to meet. Anyway, Happy Birthday, Janelle!
Love,
Michael Jackson
Janelle looked at the signature at the end to be sure she was hallucinating...and she wasn't at all. It was Michael Jackson's autograph that she just got. Her jaw dropped a little and she looked at her aunt in shock.
"These are from Michael Jackson?!"
Elizabeth nodded. "Yes, they are from him. He had come door while u were having the water balloon/super soaker fight and dropped it off. He wanted to come and play, but because of work, he couldn't. He just had to be sure I was really gonna give it to you. I have to call him and tell him that u got it. So, do u like them?" She said.
"I love them! Instead of u calling him, I'll write him a 'thank you' note. Could u possibly give it to him volgende time u go over to his house?"
"I will, no worries. Now u better get some sleep."
"Why?"
"Oh yeah. He told me to tell u this. There is an audition coming up for the Bad short film."
Her eyes went wide a little. "Really??"
"Yep. u up for it? The audition is volgende week at the Motown Studios."
"I'm totally up for it!"
She giggled. "Good. Then get some sleep. u have to rehearse until then, got it?"
"Got it, Aunt Liz. Thank u so much!"
"You're welcome, Janelle. Goodnight."
"Goodnight."
Then she left and Janelle got ready for bed. She checked in Coraline's room and saw that she was asleep. She went up to her bed and kissed her head and left the room and went back to her bedroom. She went up to her bed, crawled in and almost immediately went to sleep.
Katie parked the car when she got through the gates and got out with Janelle and helped get the bags from the romp, kofferbak of the car.

As everyone should know, Michael Jackson had a disease called Vitilgo. Duh. Well we need someway to get that through the minds of people who think he changed it.
~Did Michael change it?: No, but he did use some bleach to help it stop, and slow down. Michael would never change his skin, he once said: "I am a Black American, and proud of it"
~Did it change itself?: Somewhat. Vitilgo has been in Michaels family for years.It has come from his mother`s side of the family, and it was just 'his turn'/'his genoration' to get it.
Thank u and I hope I answered some people`s vragen on "Did it change itself" because alot of people here wanted antwoorden on that in the picks.
