Love All Over Again Chapters 8-14
“I want to see you again Jules” Michael said brushing a stray hair away from my face.
“You have a show tomorrow don’t you?” I replied.
Michael said “No! We have the day off tomorrow!”
“Well you could come over to my house and you could meet my mom, she’s really cool. That is, if you want to!” I said.
“I would do anything to be with you…” Michael just about kissed me, but then Lizzy and Joe came back. We started looking at the dessert menu, trying not to look suspicious. I looked up at Lizzy who was giving me a knowing smirk and I just started blushing.
“Jules can you come with me for a minute?” Michael asked.
“OF COURSE! I mean, yeah sure…” I said smiling
We walked out the back of the restaurant and his bus was sitting there waiting. He opened the door and said “ladies first!”
“Thank you!” I said.
We walked in and sat down on the couch. I looked around the bus and there didn’t seem to be anyone around, not even the driver. I kept thinking, “This can’t be happening…I am dreaming…” when Michael said, “What are you thinking?”
“How lucky I am to be here with you…this has been my dream forever, just to meet you, yet be alone in your bus with you!” I said.
“Well, I am very happy too. I have to ask you something though…”Michael replied.
“Go ahead!” I said.
Michael said “Well, I am leaving the day after tomorrow and I feel drawn to you or something. You are really special Jules! I really appreciate you treating me like I normal person! I just don’t want to say goodbye to you. I know this is very sudden and I know we just met today, but will you be my girlfriend?”
I just sat there in shock as one of my biggest dreams was coming true.
I started to cry and Michael said “oh Jules, don’t cry, don’t cry…” and he held out his arms and gave me a hug “what’s the matter?”
“It’s just that…it has been my absolute dream to meet you, even a chance to meet you was unbelievable, and now you asked me to be YOURS…OF COURSE I WILL!” I said.
Michael gave me a kiss and said “Well how about you finish off the tour with me and I can show you off to everyone?”
“That’d be amazing, I will just go home and get all of my stuff then…what about Lizzy???” I said.
“Oh well Joe seems to have taken a liking to her, so ask her to come along too!” Michael answered.
“Oh she will be sooo happy!” I yelled as I jumped up to run out of the bus.
Michael and me walked back into Grabba Jabba holding hands and Lizzy gave me a confused look.
“Um…Lizzy I have to go to the washroom, can you come please?” I asked.
“Okay!” Lizzy said, “please excuse us!”
We walked into the washroom and I said “Lizzy Michael asked me out!!! And he asked me to go on tour with him!!”
“That is sooo cool Jules…I hope you have fun…” Lizzy said in a half-happy, half-sad voice.
“No that’s not all! He told me to ask you to come along too because JOE LIKES YOU!!!” I screamed.
“AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!” Lizzy screamed at the top of her lungs.
We started jumping up and down and freaking out and Lizzy said, “so you are going out with Michael?”
“YES!! My dream just came true! Baby I am MICHAEL FREDO’S GIRLFRIEND!! That sounds good, don’t ya think? Mrs. Michael Fredo. Julia Fredo. I mean I have put our names together before, but now they actually fit!” I said.
We walked out of the washroom and sat down casually. Michael said, “What did she say?”
“Well, she was pretty calm. We both just started screaming and jumping up and down, but other then that, it went pretty well!” I said with a laugh.
“Well I am glad Jules.” Michael replied as he put his arm around me.
I relaxed and we finished up our drinks and walked out.
The next day he came over and I introduced him to my mom.
“Mom this is MICHAEL FREDO, you know, the singer I told you about?” I said.
“Oh, very nice to meet you finally! I have only heard about you EVERY day for the past year and a half and I can even sing most of your songs now!” mom said.
“Mom…”I said.
“Nice to meet you Mrs. Montgomery!” Michael said.
“Mom can I talk to you for a second?” I said pulling my mom into another room
“What is it Julia?” mom said.
“Well, Michael kinda asked me out yesterday and I said yes AND he asked me and Lizzy to go on tour for the rest of the dates with him!!! Can we???” I asked.
“You said yes and you JUST met him??” mom said
“Mom don’t start with that!! Can I go? PLEEEASE!!…” I asked
Mom replied “yes you can! You have to pack right? You better get started now then!”
“Thank you!! Thank you!!! I love you!!!” I said to mom as I gave her a hug
“Okay calm down!!!” Mom said.
“I can go!!!” I screamed as I gave Michael a hug and kiss
“Babe! I am so excited!” Michael replied.
Mom said “Julia, you gotta get packed now! You know how long it takes you!!”
“Thank you Mrs. M!” Michael said as he gave her a kiss on the cheek.
I walked into my room with Michael and started packing while he explored and looked around.
“Who’s this?” Michael said pointing to a picture of my ex-boyfriend and me.
“Oh, that’s Nick. My EX. We are still friends though!” I said.
“Oh…” Michael said in a sad voice,
I said “Oh don’t worry baby, you are my one and only boy!”
Michael smiled and said, “well I am glad to hear that!” as he gave me a hug.
I finished packing and called Lizzy.
“Hello?!” Lizzy said
“You Lizzy! Are ya ready??” I said excitedly
Lizzy said “Yup!!! Come and pick me up and we will be off!”
“Okay we are on my way!” I said in a happy voice.
I walked over to my mom and said “well see you in a couple months! I know it sounds like a long time, but I will call you a lot okay mom?”
“Yes! Here is some money for you and…” mom said.
“Oh no need for any money Mrs. M…I will be taking care off ALL of the needs of this girl!” Michael said as he grabbed my hand.
“Oh how sweet Michael! Thank you!” mom replied as she gave us hugs goodbye.
Mom wouldn’t let go of me and I said “MOM! Okay I’ll see you in a couple months kay? OH, about my job, just tell them, I went on tour with MICHAEL FREDO! Okay?”
“Okay then! I’ll talk to you tonight okay?” Mom said
“Sure! Love you!” I said as I said goodbye to my pets and walked out the door with Michael’s arms placed comfortably around my waist. Mom watched out the door, smiling.
We drove over to Lizzy’s and she walked out of her house with a huge smile on her face.
“I have never seen this much happiness out of 2 people in one place in a long time!” Michael said.
“Well I am with and Michael and me and my best friend are going on tour with you and Joe, so we couldn’t be happier!” I said as I leaned over and gave him a kiss.
“Get a room!!!” Lizzy said jokingly.
“You are just jealous because JOE isn’t here!!” Michael said jokingly.
We drove to where the Tommy bus was and got on.
“Next stop, Saskatoon!” Michael said. We settled down to watch a movie and I fell asleep on Michael’s shoulder while Lizzy played cards with Joey.
“I woke up to a kiss and Michael saying “Jules baby, we are here!”
“Already? Sorry I slept the whole time!” I said as I yawned tiredly.
We got out of the bus to discover fans everywhere! Michael grabbed my hand so we didn’t get separated in the crowd of girls. As we walked by a few, someone came running up to me and said “can I have your autograph?”
“Me? Okay!” I said as I signed a piece of paper.
“You are Michael’s girlfriend right?” the girl asked I replied “Yeah…” as I started to blush
“This is my beautiful Jules everyone! Try to be nice okay?” Michael yelled as he signed some autographs for some fans.
Almost everyone was nice, except for a group of girls off in the crowd who kept on giving me and Lizzy evil looks. I would just smile and give Michael a hug or a kiss and it would be all better!
“Sorry everyone! I should be getting up to my hotel room to get ready!” Michael said.
“OoooooHhhhh…” the crowd said as we walked into the hotel holding hands.
“Here is your suite my lady…” Michael said as he opened the door to a beautiful hotel room.
“WoW! I have never seen anything like it Michael! This is my room? I am not worth this much! It is too expensive!” I said
We got settled into our hotel rooms and went down to the hotel restaurant to eat dinner. Afterwards, we went out to the bus and fans were everywhere again. Lizzy and me glanced around and saw the same group of glaring girls again!
“There they are again Jules! Just look at how jealous they are at you!” Lizzy said
“I know…uh-oh…what’s that?!?” I screamed as a bright red object came flying towards me.
“JULES!!!” Michael said as he blocked me from the object.
It hit Michael and splattered everywhere! It turned out to be a tomato and it was thrown by the glaring girls DIRECTLY at me!
“Thank you soo much!” I said as I gave Michael a hug and I started to laugh.
“Oh no problem Jules…no problem…” Michael said as he tried to wipe off the tomato.
Me and Lizzy glanced over at the girls who looked very guilty and saw them walk away slowly. We got onto the bus and sat down. It was a very short bus ride over to the concert venue so we didn’t settle down too much!
We went into the venue and went backstage. Joe came up to us and said, “sorry I am late guys! I met up with an old gal pal of mine and had we had lunch!”
Lizzy looked really upset and said “Oh, that’s nice!” with a fake smile.
Joe didn’t really seem to notice so he walked away.
“It’s okay Lizzy! He just said “pal” he didn’t say an ex or first love so don’t worry about it!
I went to Michael’s dressing room and helped him choose what jersey to wear out of the variety he had! We chose a red and blue one and then he started to change into his outfit. I started to leave and he said, “where are you going?”
“Well you are changing so I thought I would just step out!” I replied kinda forgetting I was his girlfriend now.
“It’s okay Jules! You are my girl now! Remember??” Michael said.
“Yeah I know Nick…MICHAEL!” I replied
Michael said, “what did you call me?”
I said “I am sorry Mikey!! We were just talking about him and it just came out!”
“What do you mean just came out? An ex-boyfriends name doesn’t “just come out”! Unless you still love him…?” Michael said in an angry voice
“Michael! I already told you! You are my one and only okay?!? Nick and me are friends, ONLY friends and that is it okay?!? I lover you! And don’t worry I won’t expect you to say it back because you just met me, but I loved you before we met and love you even more! You are such a sweety! Okay? Are you still mad?” I replied in a worried voice.
“Welll…just don’t call me Nick again okay?” Michael said.
“I PROMISE!! N…MICHAEL!! Just kidding”! I know your name!” I said as I gave him a hug. “I love you Michael Fredo…”
“And…I love you…” Michael whispered.
“WHAT?!?” I said in a surprised voice.
“I said I love you. From what I have seen out of you so far, this is going to be the best relationship I have ever been in!” Michael said and with that he kissed me.
He did the show as me and Lizzy sat in the front row. During “Love All Over Again”, he chose someone else out of the audience to sing to and I was VERY mad!
I guess Lizzy could see my anger because she leaned over and said “don’t worry, he loves YOU and only you! Okay?”
“Okay.” I said not really believing her. “I LOVE YOU MICHAEL!!!” I screamed, seeing as I was still a crazed fan, not just his girlfriend.
Michael glanced over at me in a break in the singing and mouthed “and I love you…”
I just about died right there!
After the concert we went to a restaurant called “Red Lobster” and had a nice romantic late dinner while Joe and Lizzy went back to the hotel to hang out.
