Could you please write the Jackson 5 x girl group where they both collab on a show and Michael starts to get a crush on reader could you pls give her a name
I love this idea because it’s so him — having an innocent little crush on the pretty lead singer,
Brittany Ives was the kind of girl that demanded attention every time she was on stage, even off. You were the ringleader of the girl group "Pretty Committee". 5 beautiful petite girls with voices just as hypnotising as their looks.
They were dominating the charts in the mid-70's with their glitter & glam, their albums selling like hot cakes. Though without Brittany, they wouldn't be where they were; producers adored you, even experienced performers found themselves drawn into your orbit, you were a money magnet.
At the time, the Jackson's were also sitting on the same level of fame as the Pretty Committee, you could say they were quite literally the boy version of them. Same charisma, stage presence, & looks. The Jackson brothers were deliciously handsome, & that sells. The moment they appeared on stage, young girls went absolutely crazy. Throwing scrambled papers with their numbers, blowing kisses etc. People wanted a piece of the magic they gave out.
At the centre of all that was Michael Jackson. Too young & innocent to understand the effect he had on his audience, but so damn magnetic. Producers knew the collaboration would work before either groups had even met, no time was wasted in making it happen. They'd be television gold.
As soon as rehearsals commenced, Michael's eyes immediately stayed on Brittany like glue. He was no better than any other guy, you were pure sultry class & Michael was easy. The way you'd look during those dance rehearsals — he couldn't get anything done. You'd be wearing a baby pink cropped ripped tee paired with white capris, your luscious chestnut curls thrown into a messy pony, clammy n' wet.
He'd panic a little more when he had to dance with you face to face, holding your waist briefly as the director said, even though he protected against it. You'd notice pink starting to creep up his cheeks as he'd hold his gaze on you for the purpose of the performance.
"You okay there Michael? you're red," you'd chuckle, the two of you still moving your feet in the rhythm go the music, his trembling hands on your waist.
"It's just hot in here, the heating — I think it's getting to me."
"The heating isn't on, you sure you're okay?"
"Yeah I'm okay, just gonna go to the restroom real quick."
"Mike! where you goin?" The director would call out.
& he'd rush off. You knew he had a crush on you, it wasn't a surprise being who you are, you found it cute. His brother's would always tease you with,
"Mike has a lil thing for ya, did y'know?"
"You see the way he gets all giddy around you?"
When the time would finally come to perform on stage in front of a live audience, Michael couldn't tell whether he was nervous from screwing up, or the way the team had dolled you up. Your hair dramatically high, your legs slender & smooth beneath your plain white midi dress paired perfectly with some kitten heels. You could see glitter everywhere on you, everywhere. He never noticed the other girls.
You'd give him a little hug before performing,
"You ready? you excited?" In your candy sweet voice, hands rested on his shoulders.
He'd nod, a chester cat smile plastered on his face as his hands remained on your waist a little too long after the hug.
"Im excited, you'll do great out there, you're great." He'd laugh nervously.
He found it so hard to focus on choreography when you were singing & dancing next to him, all the lyrics threatening to leave his brain anytime he's singing face to face with you. He knew that every performance after this one would be a challenge. The audience was already rooting for you two noticing the chemistry on stage, interviewers constantly asking,
"So what, are you two a thing? are you dating? cause' your chemistry is just amazing,"
Just for you & Michael to brush it off, giggling from silly little nerves.
"No we're just friends." He'd say.
Whether you two were sharing a stage, standing shoulder to shoulder during MTV shows, or sharing laughter backstage, he'd could never manage to take his eyes of you, he had his nose wide open for you.
