"Perhaps you should learn that not every girl in this world is infatuated with you, Monsieur." "Maybe strangers ought to stop making themselves so incredibly difficult to find." •°•°•°• Two identities. Two vastly different worlds. One woman- an infuriating one at that. What would happen if Michael Jackson fell in love with the cold publicst that drove him up the wall without knowing it? What would happen if the person who decided which part of his life became the next headline, was the very same anonymous Phantom of the opera he was determined to unmask? As for Valencia, of course she certainly didn't find herself looking forward to those stolen backstage moments with the superstar she once deemed her worst client. It would be absolutely ridiculous to actually like the version devoid of the cutting remarks he reserved only for her alter persona. But would Michael still play their dangerous little games if he knew the truth about his elusive soprano? As a fiery distain turns to something not one of them quite understands, maybe some truths are better kept secret. Maybe some things are best left undefined if neither are ready to admit their lives had interwined in more ways than one. ☆𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕺𝖋 𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕺𝖕𝖊𝖗𝖆☆

He fell first AND harder. Summer 1984, right after Michael Jackson won 8 Grammys Awards in February. He wanted a pause. He rented a villa in California for 2 months so he could stay away from the spotlight. Lauren Whitmore herd from neighbors that the villa next to hers will finally have a new resident.

She never expected to be noticed by him. She never stopped wondering what would happen if she had been.

"Y'know... people write songs about girls like you." "Then you better get started on that." "Oh believe me, I will." He promised, still tracing a hand over flaming skin. "Is that so, in that case how would it sound like?" I enquired whilst gently swirling the glass, watching the wine roll around its bowl. "Mmm... probably jazzy. Complicated. Enchanting in a way commanding all my attention." His touch ignited a burning flame in my stomach. Almost as if I could feel his suppressed hunger for something we both knew was inappropriate. He wasn't sober enough to even understand the consequences of his own words. So I leaned over towards him, smoothly brushed off his wandering hand and pulled him closer by the collar of his dress shirt. I whispered lowly in his ear, " No. Not like this. When you touch me, I want you to remember every second of it." •°•°• Nobody talks about the loneliness of fame. Nobody could understand how not even the brightests of spotlights could seem to erase the emptiness lingering inside once the glamour dulled. Because if you are Michael Jackson the whole world puts you on a pedestal with an image to uphold. When a night of smooth jazz at a lone bar grants Michael the opportunity to meet an elusive woman desperately wanting to be heard not only by her voice but with her saxophone as well. He finds himself desiring to meet the shadow of a girl that stole the show. Danielle Monroe survives as a background singer for her sister, never being allowed to outperform her. Between the odd gigs to boost her sister's dead end career and working at the failing Vinyl shop to make ends meet she feels her dreams slipping out of her reach. Reaching a proper stage now nothing but a hazy dream. When she meets Michael- that all changes. They soon realise that their relationship is quickly evolving into something dangerous for a superstar and a loungesinger who is only just now finding her voice again with the confidence he helped her find.

Born into a powerful crime family, Y/n has spent her entire life sheltered from the violence and secrets surrounding her. She knows enough to understand that the Jacksons are her family's greatest enemies. With an arranged marriage to the repulsive Enzo Caliente closing in, Y/n does the one thing no one expects. She runs. But freedom lasts only a few hours before she is taken by the very family she was taught to fear. Now trapped under the watch of Michael Jackson, Y/n is pulled into a world her parents spent years hiding from her. And she quickly learns that the most dangerous men are not always the ones who look cruel. #1 michaeljackson

Michael Jackson x fem!Reader, 1989. best friends. sickfic.

At twenty seven, Y/n abandons her career as an animator to pursue the dream she left behind: painting. In the quiet Scottish countryside, she finds more than inspiration. For the past year, Michael Jackson has vanished from the world, hiding from the fame that finally exhausted him. He wants nothing but solitude until an unfamiliar artist appears outside his castle and gives him something new to watch. Neither of them came to Scotland looking for the other.

"You're gonna make people think we're actually dating." "Isn't that what you wanted though?" Michael Jackson has spent years hiding his feelings for Y/n. Unfortunately for him, he's terrible at it. When he asks her to be his date for a high-profile gala, it should've been easy. Show up. Smile for the cameras. Play the part. Go home. Instead, a fake date turns into lingering touches, whispered confessions, jealous glances, and a dangerous realization. Some acts are a lot harder to walk away from than others. Or maybe they dropped the act long before either of them realized it.

[SLOW BURN] It is 2006. The trial is over, but Michael Jackson has locked himself in a prison of his own making. He is completely isolated, deeply guarded, and wholly disgusted by the press. He refuses to speak to anyone-until Maeve Carter. Maeve is Europe's most ruthless and respected journalist, and she doesn't care about tabloid garbage. She is flying to New York with one goal: get the interview, secure the massive bonus, and pay for her mother's life-saving cancer treatments. It was supposed to be a simple transaction. But when the doors to the penthouse lock, the King of Pop is nothing like the broken man the media painted. He is sharp, intimidating, and looking for a challenge. And Maeve is the first person in years who isn't afraid to give him one. #1 - mj #1 - kingofpop #1 - moonwalker #1 - mjj #1 - michaeljosephjackson #93 - fanfic
