Cowboy Mike Preview XIV
Sabah stepped out of her car and walked around to the back to get Lacoste’s painting from the trunk of her car. It had finally been framed according to his specifications. Sabah would put money on it, artists were the most temperamental, demanding creatures on the face of the Earth! Lifting the painting gingerly from the trunk of her car, she was startled out of her skin when she lowered the trunk closed and caught sight of a disheveled man with what looked to be a perpetual five o’clock shadow on his face standing by her car, seemingly waiting for her.
Sabah, who spent a good part of her teenage years in New York, slammed the car trunk closed and quickly turned away, holding her purse as close as possible to her as she did.
The man called out from behind her. “Hey wait a sec” — he made a move to follow her and spilled some coffee on his jacket. Brushing it off he looked up to see that she was already several feet ahead of him. “God damn it!!!”
Shit! Sabah thought to herself. She quickened her pace but the man caught up to her.
“Sabah — Sabah Graham, right?” He almost had to jog to keep up with her. “Can I speak to you for a moment?”
Sabah didn’t slow her pace one iota. “About what?”
“Well, if you can just give me a minute.”
If anything, Sabah walked faster.
“It’s about Michael.”
At the name Michael, Sabah stopped abruptly and turned to face him. Her unexpected behavior jostled him and he spilled some more coffee on himself which he tried in vein to brush off. Lifting his head, he came face to face with her obstinate glare. She gave him a good once over. He was tall and lanky, with unkempt salt and pepper hair that was badly in need of a cut and a long, hooked nose underneath hooded eyes with dark circles around them. He wore dirty jeans and a tan jacket that looked like a cow had spit it out. There was a paper folded under his arm, a cigarette dangling from the corner of his mouth and an almost empty cup of cold coffee in his hands.
“Michael who?” Sabah asked snidely.
“Michael Jackson.” The reporter challenged.
“Michael WHO?” Sabah asked incredulously and then for good measure she laughed.
“You heard me,” the reporter growled.
Lol. This was a funny preview but also suspenseful. So im guessing this chapter is going to be more focused on the media and michael’s fame. I knew it was time for us to deal with this. We had to get out of love land with Sabah and Michael. Oh no this is horrible. Why is this guy back??? This is bad.
Michael who?? LOL.
Umm I don’t like this preview. No I don’t want to deal with the Media. Can’t we pretend they don’t exist? Oh Okay – I know they do and we have deal with them… but, but… oh dammit, let’s deal with them and move on – but let’s deal with it Sabah style – and rip this guy apart!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! *throws computer chair to the ground*
P.S LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
My word verification word was NOSIBLE!!!!! Who woulda thunk it?!?!
Nosible! Sounds accurate! Now you pick up that computer chair right now young lady! Or I’ll get Antoinette to deal with you! What are you screaming about? You don’t like the Lacoste painting?
Ameera, practical as ever. “I knew it was time for us to deal with this” — you’re so funny!
Ms. Martini, sooooooooo, you no likeee the preview . . . how can we accurately write a story about Michael and ignore the press who made his life hell?
But in this story let’s see how Michael handles it — forget Sabah!!!!!
The Lacoste painting I’m fine with I just want to know how it would cope being smashed into that papparazo. Not that violence is the answer ofcourse :) I was hoping we could push off reality for a little while and enjoy Michael and Sabah being happy!! I guess you can’t escape reality even in fiction :(
Hey all! I just got on the computer and just read the sneak peak of the next installment. I’m so excited! I am so in luv wit Michael and Sabah’s relationship it grows every chapter. I’m eager to see what’s gonna happen in this next chapter. PEACE!
Summertime, honey you are nicer than me, because if I was a star, I would definitely be one of those celebrities that lose it and knock the ish outta a camera all up in my face.
I always wish that Michael would lose it and knock the shit outta them. There’s a funny interview when the interviewer asks him if he was invisible what would he do, and he said, Boy who would I slap!
LOL! Then he says he like to run over to one of the paparazzi on their little scooter and knock them off of it ’cause they’re so annoying! LOL!!!! I think it was on t.v. guide.

Hey Saneesia, I’m so happy to see another comment by you. Yeah, I’m more and more inspired,the story is keeping me from sleeping at night.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! *grabs summertimes’ computer chair and throws it to the floor*
(sorry, I promise I’ll buy you another one)
I want escapism, this is our little big paradise, please don’t do this to us. Diane Sawyer with her legs up in the air is not my idea of paradise (even if it’s because she was hit by a Bill Bray’s car). Please, bring Sabah back! *pouty face*
tsk..
YES that is me sucking my teeth!
NO! I don’t want to deal with the press! Am I too old to have tantrum? I just might be.
Hmm, but, I also didn’t want to deal with Sabah’s mother either and look at the great photo op that got us! *sigh*
Okay – I am trusting you oh great one – I hope I won’t need more than one martini to make it through this. Or my dirty martini glasses with be in your hands for washing!
@ Anniesnotokay:
LMFAOOOO I think we’re gona need to buy a new one just to break it again after we’re through with the next chapter lol.
@Sabine
Lol I remember that interview. I see the papparazi as the unswattable fly…no scratch that flies just annoy you theyr;re the unswattable mosquito since they’re like parasites they drink your blood they feed off of you and then keep coming for more and there’s like a million of them just being professionally annoying.Also if I went through what Michael went through I don’t think I’d be so nice anymore I’m surprised he didn’t just snap. He was always so poised
P.S I love the big pic of OTW MJ that greets me everytime I come here. NEVER CHANGE IT lol its so beautiful!
I HATE THE DAMN PAPARAZZI !!!!
Ugghhh. Why Sabine Why?????????
This paparazzo/stalker needs his camera shoved down his throat. Please don’t let him or evil Antoinette sabotage their relationship. I have faith that the next chapter will be amazing as always.
oh my goodnes Sabine, I can not wait :D WOOOHOOO!! Sabah better kick his ass hahaha <3!
love uuuu
OOH NOOOO! Just the thought of the media and sabah’s mother coming into the picture is making me very scared for her and michael. Until now it was such a smooth ride seeing their relationship blossoming. OH God what is going to happen. Please Please sabine don’t let michael and sabah’s love crumble. Until now you have woven fact with fiction beautifully but as I’ve been reading the chapters I always kind of knew at some point this was going to happen but can’t help thinking what would it have been like if michael was not THE michael jackson the singer and just a regular guy next door, but not with the media coming we have to come back to reality. Sabine I’ve loved the way you have shown a side of michael to us that we never saw. Oh God what will happen now, I hope everything works out okay in the end.
Oh by the way Sabine I’m the one had called myself “the real life sabah” sometime ago if you remember, but you can call me sonia.
Hi Sonia!!!!! hi everyone!!!!!
Oh my goodness, I feel like I have a fever! Chapter XV is burning up inside me, raging to get out. Well I wrote it all down, let’s see, on the back of two paper bags when I was having lunch, on the back of a flyer when I was in a dept store and on two napkins! Little bits and pieces and now I have to put it together! AHHHHHHH!!! This story is driving me crazy!!!!! And you know what, All of what I just described – that’s only the LOVE SCENE!!!! O-O So girls, hold on for the next chapter.
It’s going to SIZZLE!!!!!!
we are trying to be patient honey… we are just so excited. I know I am!
I dunno who else will find this hilarious… but today I was leading my local Rapid Cardio Class through the warm up… and I had “Ain’t Nobody” by Rufus/Chaka Khan playing and I am like… work it girls, work it like Mike.. I caught myself before I said.. works Sabah!
Opsis.. I may be band from classes!
I think we may need an intervention!
What!!! That is just the love scene! Oh boy I can’t wait. That means love is still going strong, I just hope Michael and Sabah really give the media a piece of their mind, and I hope sabah’s mother gets what she deserves. I bet she too has a hand in tipping off some of these reporters since she wants to cash in on her daughter’s famous boyfriend, what an attention seeker, aaagghhh!
LOL! Work it like Mike works Sabah! OMG– that is PRICELESS!!!! lmao!!!! Martini Girl! Well ne way, that don’t know WHAT you were talking about!
Cardio class? You GO girl!!!!!
Well if I have any lurkers, I’d say in about a half an hour Ima put the new chapter up! Just in time for Valentine’s Day NIGHT, if you know what I mean! ; )
I am not lurking… *looking around*
hey how did I get here?? : )
You’re so funny! I had to switch to another lap top to get the pic for the next story.
LOL “Michael who” ? this is going to be a good one. I feel so behind I get confused by Roman Numerals and I didn’t notice the new chapters were up LOL, I going to read this one now!
