The Power Of Love! [Michael J. Fox]

1984 It was now in 1984. On some movie set in California. What was I doing? Who was I? Let me begin this adventure. Back when I was a young girl my father had worked for the United States government. He had been trying to create a time traveling machine. Way before the Back To The Future movies ever came out. Weird thing was around that same time my father went missing. The government knew nothing. Or so they said. My mother thought he ran out on her. She now wanted to find him to get a divorce or know if he was dead or alive. We wanted answers that the government was not providing us with. I had finally managed to get in my father's old shed behind out home. I found some crazy things in there. Plans for the time machine. And a half of one built. The time frame my father had planned on traveling back to. All his notes. Then I managed to create a time machine. And now here I was. Chasing after a man who I had not saw in a long time. I only had a photo of him and myself to go by. I managed to hide the machine behind a sign there in the movie lot. No one yet had noticed me. This was going to be hard. How was I going to get the machine back home? How was I going to get back in the Hollywood movie set once they caught me? I was sure to get my ass kicked out if I was caught. That was for sure. I had to think fast and keep on my toes. So, I could find my father and return back home. I stuff the plans and the photos in a notebook. I had on an eighties type of outfit so that I would fit in when I arrived here. That way I did not stick out like a sore thumb. •♡•♡•♡• I feel someone tap me lightly on the shoulder. Startling me. "Oh hey, may I help you?" I go to ask as I turn around quickly. Our eyes lock on one another. I knew who this man was. He had no clue who I was. I was a huge fan. In my time he was about in his fifties. He was ten times older than me. His face breaks out in the most handsome smile I ever laid eyes on. "I should ask how I can help you" he says. "I have not seen you around here before. Are you new to the crew? Are you looking for Vikki?" he questions. I had to think fast. "Oh yes Mr. Fox I am new to the set here. And this is my first day on the job. I was wondering where Vikki was" I lie and nod yes. I did not work here. They would soon find that out. He was all decked out in the blue jeans and that orange puffy jacket over his shirt. He was making BTTF one. God, he looked perfect. I had to keep from drooling all over him. Who the hell was this Vikki he mentioned? Maybe if they thought I worked here then I would gain access to this place and I would not have to worry about the hidden time machine! That would be perfect! "Please call me Michael. After all we are going to be working together. This is my first movie. I am a little nervous. I mean Family Ties is nothing to sneeze at, but this is the big screen you know?" he says shyly to me. "This is the first day we are shooting the movie. And it is going to be a great one" he says to me. I nod in agreement. "Where is Vikki?" I ask him. "Follow me. What is your name? I did not catch it" he causally asks me as I follow him around like a lost little puppy dog in the studio. "My name is Nika Foss" I tell him. Should I have made up a name? Hell, I gave the man my real name? Oh well it was not like I was ever going to see Michael again after this anyway. He turns his head back to look at me. "You have a beautiful name Nika. Never heard that before. It fits you perfectly" he adds. I feel my cheeks blush at his kind words. "Thanks Michael. My mother named me when she was reading romance novels" I giggle. "Vikki! Hey, Vikki, a new girl is here to work for you" Michael suddenly calls out to someone as he waves. •♡•♡•♡• A woman around our age, she looked to be in her twenties turns to look down at us. She was standing on top of a latter. She had long curly black hair. Really a pretty lady. She was going to know she did not hire me. Here it goes. I was going to get kicked out of here. In front of Michael to. I wince. She climbs off the latter. Then shakes hands with me. "What have we here Michael?" she asks me. "This is Nika Foss. You hired her to work on the movie" he tells her. She raises her eyebrow at me. "I did huh? I do not recall hiring anyone named by that name" she mentions thoughtfully. I was about to sweat bullets here. "Are you sure? We can use one more hand. Maybe Tory hired her over your head? He does s**t like that all the time. I can go ask him" offers Michael. "No worries. She can stay. We just fired that jerk Jeffery that could not do his job right. So, we can use another hand. Do you want this job?" asks Vikki. She crosses her arms and is studying me. I nod. "Oh yes, please can I? I came out today hoping to work here" I slip up. "You said that you worked here?" Michael sighs as he runs his fingers in that fine feathery brown hair of his. He looks hurt by my lies. "I am sorry I lied. I really need the money. I am on the streets right now" I admit softly. I glance down at the ground. That part was true. I was not sure where I was going to stay tonight. Vikki slaps me on the arm. "Welcome to the team kid. I will go draw up paper work for you to fill out. And you can get started today" she says before she wanders away. I did not know what to say now. Michael caught me in a lie. I felt bad for lying to him. "So how did you get in here? Why are you here?" he demands to know. I glance away from his steady gaze. "I am who I said I was Michael. I do need a job. I am on the streets. I will get a motel for the night. I am from out of town. I came here to look for my dad who disappeared. This was the last location we knew were he was. And I have to find him for my mom" I explain. At least I could tell him that much. •♡•♡•♡• "You should have just told me. I would have understood and tried to help" he mutters. "I hate being lied to" he bitterly remarks. My heart sinks. "I never meant to hurt you. Really!" I say softly. "Welcome to the team" he says before walking away looking disappointed in me. Not to say that I blamed him. I sigh. I was not good at making friends. I never had been. "Here you need to fill all this out then you can begin to work for us. My name is Vikki Berlin. What was your name again?" Vikki asks me as she hands me a butt load of papers to fill out. "The name is Nika Foss" I tell her. "Pretty name. Michael knows how to pick em" she laughs. I blush at that as I take the papers from her. "Michael seems like a great guy" I tell her. I wished I had not hurt him. Not like we were ever going to be grand friends or anything. But I do not like how I left things between us. "He is a wonderful talented man. You should get to know him while you are here. We all love him. He is really something" she brags on him. "he is a rising star around here" "I am sure he will be a tremendous success" I tell her. I knew he would be. I feel a curious pair of eyes on me from across the room. Michael was watching me as he holds a script in his hands. My eyes meet his. I smile his way. He glares at me before looking away. My heart sinks. I needed to make amends with him while I was working here. Or I might get kicked out for that later on. I had to make Michael understand why I lied. I never meant to hurt anyone. •♡•♡•♡•♡•♡•♡•♡•♡•♡•
