Kiss My Ass Fred
Part 9
Alex woke up and rolled over, immediately putting his hand out to reach for Isabel. Finding the space next to him empty, he sat up, a rush of panic flooded through him.
“I’m making breakfast, love,” he heard in his mind.
“I knew that,” he threw back with relief.
“Then why the panic?” she questioned.
“The panic was because....I hoped you would make something I could eat, I’m starving!” he thought as he watched her walk in through the bedroom door.
She face was curled in a smirk as she walked towards him with a tray and laid it on the bed in front of him.
“I will have you know… I know how to cook,” Isabel said out loud as she sat down on the bed beside him.
“Oh really...so not burning things anymore?” he teased as he leaned over to kiss her.
“Alex I did NOT burn things! OK, maybe once or twice but I have had a lot of time to work on things,” she said, giving him a kiss to take the sting out of her words.
“Yes, you have been working on a few things. Oooh, this looks yummy,” he said, licking his lips as he glanced down at the tray of food. It was loaded up with huge pieces of French toast, eggs, bacon, sausage, and little fried potatoes garnished with cut up strawberries. Off to the side was a glass of juice and two cups of coffee.
Isabel smiled. This was the way she had always envisioned her life with Alex. She picked up the syrup and poured it over the French toast. She cut a piece off with her fork and held it up as if she was going to give it to Alex. He smiled and opened his mouth to accept it but when she leaned towards him as if to lift the fork to his mouth, she turned just before and took the bite into her own mouth.
“Hey!” Alex protested with a smile. He loved it when Isabel was playful like this.
She grinned and went to take another bite, teasing him with her eyes. Alex leaped forward and snatched the bite before she could put it in her mouth, in the process getting close enough to also plant a light kiss on her lips. Isabel smirked again and licked her lips.
“Isabel, we still have a lot to talk about,” Alex said, suddenly getting a serious look on his face.
“Yes, Mr. Serious, I know that we do, but can we enjoy breakfast first?” she said with a smile and a twinkle in her eye.
“Of course we can but if you stay dressed like that and I remain in my, er, utter lack of clothing, we both know the food will get cold before we can eat it,” he said as he eyed her with the innocent yet lustful look, trying to remain firm in his convictions.
Isabel raised an eyebrow and looked over into Alex’s loving face, and then it hit her! He was wearing no clothes under the light blue sheets. She glanced slowly down his body, her eyes following a path down his broad chest and back up to his face.
Alex watched her with a mixture of desire and humor, knowing just what she was thinking… “Isabel,” he said, trying to snap her out of her stupor. “Isabel!” he tried in her mind for extra emphasis.
“Yes… I’m here…huh?” she said trying to calm her quickening heartbeat.
“Sweetheart, we REALLY need to talk about this, I can feel all the lusty stuff coming off you in these crazy mind waves. Hey! What did Lonnie tell you about this? Iz?” He reached over to grab her hand then and was met with a sudeden shock to his system. Alex jumped and pulled his hand back. “OUCH, Isabel. Geez!” he yelled.
“Oh my god, Alex! I’m so sorry, are you OK?” She started to reach for him but he pulled back. Their eyes came together with intensity as he tried to hide the hurt in them.
“Oh, Izzie, I’m sorry…I know this is confusing for us both. It was just an involuntary reaction, I’m sure,” Alex said in a calmer voice that was laced with guilt.
Looking up finally, Isabel tried again to grab his hand and this time he didn’t pull back. There were no shocks either so she squeezed it for a minute while she tried to gather her thoughts together. Alex waited patiently through her silence.
“Lonnie did tell me that I had to learn to close the connection with you a little. See, we missed three years and my body stored up all this energy and love and so it gets a bit overwhelming. I guess that just now I forgot and so I was all wide open and it was too much for you. I’m sorry.” She held her head down as she finished speaking.
“That’s OK, sweetheart, I am very happy to make up for lost time. Just remember that I am only a lowly human and already no match for such a beautiful woman, let alone an alien princess, so go easy on me, OK?” he said as he leaned over to plant a soft kiss on her lips.
Isabel felt horribly guilty but allowed him to plant soft kisses on first her lips and then her forehead before moving down to rest their foreheads against one another.
“I love you. We WILL work this out,” he paused, “and we will have a lot of fun doing it too. Just let me know what I can do to make it easier.”
Isabel leaned in and kissed him, opening the connection so he could see everything Lonnie had told him. After kissing for a minute he pulled away and gasped for air.
“WOW, she told you it gets better! I think I might need a doctor,” he said incredulously.
Isabel laughed, pulling him into a hug and letting all the feelings of love wash over her.
“How did I get so lucky?” she thought to herself.
“I’m the lucky one, more like,” he answered.
Isabel decided that Alex was right that they needed to get dressed so she regretfully pulled back and stood up. Maria had told her to take as much time as they needed but she knew that she would feel better once all this crap with Cal was taken care of and the only way that that was going to happen was if they came up with a plan. She could feel Alex’s eyes on her as she looked in her bag to get some clothes.
“I know I said we should get dressed and go down stairs to eat but I will say I’m going to be sad to see you out of my shirt and in your own clothes,” Alex said with a sigh.
“Don’t worry, I promise to wear your shirts all the time from now on in the morning. I’m going to take a shower now, and as much as I would love to have you join me I guess it’s not a good idea. I know I can’t stand in a small room with you and contain myself, seeing as you would be naked.” Giggling to hide the desire that shot through her at that thought, she grabbed her clothes and went into the bathroom.
Alex fell back onto the pillows with a groan. This was going to be difficult! Yes, there was all the stuff with Cal, but he was also worried about just getting through the ordeal of knowing that Isabel was taking a shower right there in the next room. When he heard the water turn on he thought it was safe to get up and put on his boxer shorts but he didn’t make it across the room before he was hit with a flash of the water pouring over Isabel’s body. “Is she doing this on purpose?” he asked himself with an even louder groan.
“Doing what?” Isabel asked.
“Oh hell!” he said and walked over to the bathroom.
Isabel jumped as she stepped into the shower. “Alex, what are you doing?” she moaned as he slid up behind her to kiss her neck.
“I’m conserving water, and our sanity…go with it,” he breathed into her ear, sending a sharp shiver down her spine.
“OK, but this is on you this time,” she whispered, leaning her hands against the shower wall as his hands began to explore her body.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile…
Lonnie had not slept. She was too worried about how they were going to close off the connection and make Cal go away. The sick feeling in her stomach just wouldn’t go away. She missed New York and she missed him. She had told Isabel how to close the connection a little but apparently her double had been to busy to think about it. Lonnie knew this to be a fact as she’d just gotten a supercharged dose of Isabel’s desire through the line. She sighed and pushed the covers off in order to get up and go into the kitchen.
“Morning,” Maria mumbled from inside the pantry.
“Oh hey! I didn’t know anyone was up,” Lonnie answered as she sat down on one of the bar stools by the island.
“Pfft! Who can sleep through the Max and Liz morning sex. I swear they get worse each year. It’s amazing they never run out of steam,” Maria answered with a bemused yet somewhat disgusted expression on her face.
Lonnie laughed at Maria’s tendency to just blurt out whatever she was thinking. It was clear that even though she was disgusted with Max and Liz to some degree, she wouldn’t have it any other way.
“Yeah, the soul mate bonding and connection can sure be something to be around twenty-four hours a day. I have heard that on Antar some people would spend months never getting out of bed,” Lonnie stated.
Maria looked over at Lonnie and searched the others girl’s face for something resembling the Lonnie that they had run into years ago but she couldn’t really find it. She sat down then with two cups of tea, sliding one across to rest in front of Lonnie.
“There’s Tabasco sauce and honey right in front of you,” she said pointing. “Hey Lonnie, can I ask you a few questions?” Maria asked lightly.
“Sure. I just hope I can answer them,” Lonnie answered honestly.
“Why are you here?” Maria inquired. “And don’t just give me the answer you gave us before, give me the real one.”
Lonnie let out a deep breathe and looked up at the ceiling.
“Do you know I always thought Isabel was the lucky one, living in this town and having all of you. Plus there was the whole being the real princess thing. It wasn’t until I was watching Cal one day go on and on about how Vilondra was his and ‘no matter what he was going to have her’ that it hit me… See, I got the easy part of being Vilondra - Khivar, Cal, and Nicholas, they don’t want me, they want her. She is the one who has to worry about going back and she is the one who has all the burden of being ‘the princess.’ I was just a dupe.” She paused to take a drink of her tea before adding, “she’s also not the one who helped to kill her brother. She and Max would never think of doing that to each other. Sure they fight…but what siblings don’t? Zan and I never got along. I always thought he was too soft, and being with Rath didn’t help.” The tall alien girl looked over at Maria and reached out to put her hand on her arm. “Oh Maria, I’m sorry, I didn’t think about it but it must be weird for you that I was with Rath…” Her voice trailed off then as if she was running out of steam after revealing so much painful stuff.
“Lonnie, a long time ago we all decided none of them were like their dupes. Michael is not Rath, and it doesn’t bother me because I know how much Michael loves me. Plus I also know you didn’t love Rath,” Maria said patting Lonnie’s hand.
Lonnie nodded in understanding and continued with only a little hesitation, “I feel like I have so much to make up for, but also I need to help myself. I need closure and knowing Isabel is finally happy will give me that…do you understand?”
“Better then you think. All I can say is I that I do believe that you are here to help, but let me warn you, we all work together as a tight family and if someone crosses this family it’s not a pretty sight,” Maria said with warning in her flashing green eyes.
“I do believe I have seen some of that teamwork in person, so believe me, I won’t forget.” Lonnie chuckled. She admired Maria for being so willing to stand up for her family.
“Won’t forget what?” Michael asked as he walked into the kitchen, planting a kiss on Maria’s lips as he walked by to check for coffee.
“She didn’t forget how we all work together as a family. Speaking of, I better not see you giving Alex one dirty look when they decide to come and talk to us, do you hear me?” Maria said as she planted her hands on her hips.
Michael grunted and grabbed a coffee mug and poured himself a cup. “They just better not turn into Max and Liz. It’s one thing to have your brother having sex all the time, but I don’t want to KNOW about Isabel having it,” he grumbled.
Lonnie laughed at how protective Michael was. Boy, was he in for a surprise.
“Michael, I hate to burst your bubble but Isabel has three years of stored up energy, they will definitely be worse then Max and Liz for awhile,” Lonnie told him teasingly.
“Oh, fricken wonderful!” Michael exclaimed.
Maria got up and moved around to face him in the small kitchen.
“You WILL be happy for your sister. She deserves this and so does Alex. Lonnie will help them keep a lid on it in public and besides they don’t even live here so it won’t be under your nose. But let me tell you one thing, Spaceboy, you will behave, and you will do it with a smile. Got it?” Maria stated firmly as she gave him an emphatic poke in the chest.
“Yes dear,” He mumbled into his coffee.
“I’m going to call Tess and see if she and Kyle want to come over. We can at least start talking about a plan,” Maria said and grabbed the phone. She paused for a second and yelled out, “Max, get off Liz and you all come out here and have breakfast, so we can talk about helping your sister!”
Later that day…
Isabel and Alex had decided to go over to the house and see what everyone was coming up with. They were all sitting around in the living room talking.
“Isabel, are you OK? “Cuse you look kinda funny.” Liz asked.
Alex looked up at Isabel and noticed a light red coloring to her face so he leaned over and patted her hand to reassure her.
Maria saw something was up. “Come on ladies, we need to have girl talk in the kitchen. We can also decide what to order for dinner,” she said as she stood up unceremoniously.
“You too Lonnie,” Liz and Tess said at the same time.
Lonnie looked up in surprise but followed them into the kitchen. After they had decided to order Italian food and so the food thing was all settled, they all looked at Isabel with unabashed curiosity.
“Isabel, what’s wrong…are you OK?” Maria inquired gently.
“Yes, I’m fine - just embarrassed -I will be fine,” Isabel answered, hiding her eyes as she spoke.
“Alright, we said no more secrets. Is everything OK with you and Alex?” Liz asked in a concerned best friend kind of voice.
“Yes, yes, Alex is wonderful. There’s just something that happened today and I can’t seem to get over it,” Isabel managed to get out even as she had placed her hands over her face.
“Don’t you think telling us about it might make you feel better?” Maria said and rubbed Isabel’s back.
“No,” Isabel said, still mumbling through her hands.
“Come on, I’m sure it wasn’t that bad. Tell us and then maybe we can help,” Tess said as she too started to get concerned for her friend.
Isabel looked up and saw all of their concerned faces and decided what the hell, maybe she WOULD feel better if she bit the bullet and told them. She took a deep breath and started…
“Alex and I had a wonderful morning and I showed him what Lonnie had explained to me about the building up of my energy and he was great about it and everything. I went to get in the shower and he jumped in there with me. I didn’t know he was going to come in there with me. Anyways one thing led to another and we got carried away in his shower…” she trailed off.
“OK, so what? That’s great, right?” Maria said with evident confusion, trying to understand exactly what the problem was.
“Yes it was great. The only problem is…I was in the middle of a …umm, *you know* and I grabbed ahold of the soap dish - you know the one that is built into the shower wall - and I sort of ripped it out of the wall.” Her answer spilled out of her mouth quickly as she glanced around at her friends with a truly horrified expression on her face.
Everyone was silent for a few seconds and then someone started to giggle, and then Isabel heard another giggle. Pretty soon they were all laughing so hard tears were rolling down their faces. Well, everyone but Isabel was laughing.
“I do not see the humor in this, AT ALL!” she said, raising her voice.
“We…are …sorry…but…OMG!” Liz answered, as she desperately tried to get her breath back. “I thought Max and I were bad but we have never done that!”
“Thanks, Liz,” Isabel complained but even she almost cracked a smile.
Hearing all the noise the guys all came into the kitchen to see what was happening. They found all of the girls holding their stomachs, doubled over and nearly wheezing with laughter. Alex felt her embarrassment and assumed that Isabel must have told them so he walked over to take her in his arms.
“What’s so funny?” Kyle asked, never one to be left out of a joke.
“Alex and Isabel were in the shower…. HAHAHA…and she ripped the soap dish off the wall…OMG!” Tess told him in between maniacal giggles.
“How the hell did she do that and why would she….? Oh wait, duh,” Kyle said, turning to look at Alex and Isabel with eyes wide. “Way to go, Dude!”
Michael and Max were still confused. Then it hit them and they turned to look at Alex with rage as they started to move towards him.
“I don’t think so! If you’re mad then take it out on your girlfriends - they were the ones who asked what was wrong with me,” Isabel said fiercely as she moved to stand in front of Alex in order to block her brothers from getting to him.
Finally, Liz, who was feeling a little badly about the situation, straightened up and moved over to Max. “I don’t think you want me to tell them about the time you blasted a hole in the wall of the Crashdown, also in the middle of a…” she whispered but was interrupted quickly by Max.
“Nope, and besides - I fixed that!” he whispered back, kissing her sweetly.
“Well, now that we have all had a great big laugh at my and Isabel’s expense can we go back into the living room and start making a plan?” Alex said, trying to take the heat off of Isabel.
“Sure Alex,” Liz said, grabbing Max’s hand and pulling him into the living room to wait for the food.
Alex and Isabel were the last ones to walk out of the kitchen. “Are you OK? I told you it wasn’t a big deal. You even fixed it,” he thought, trying to sooth her.
“Yes, I’m OK, I think I’m more mad that we didn’t finish,” she thought back with a pout.
“Hey, wait a second. We did finish. In fact, if I’m not mistaken we started all over.”
“Yes, we did but that doesn’t count - I still want more.”
“Well, we can always go into the bathroom here and see what we can tear off the walls!”
She smacked him lightly and pulled him back to her before they could get all the way into the living room. “Don’t make promises you won’t keep,” Isabel said, kissing him thoroughly.
“I wasn’t kidding. Come on! How long till the food gets here?” Alex asked, challenging her with a lascivious grin.
“Thirty more minutes. And you’re going to regret asking,” Isabel said in a breathless hurry and proceeded to finish pulling him towards the bathroom instead of the living room.
“Oh geez! Am I going to have to start yelling at you two also?” Maria asked as she watched them duck into the bathroom.
“You can yell, Maria but they’ll just learn selective hearing like the rest of us,” said Max much to Liz’s glee.
“Yeah, you’re real funny, Max! Come on guys. We have plans to make!” Maria called out in the direction of the couple as they slunk away.
“We can make plans after we eat and we still have time before the food gets here,” came Isabel’s rushed answer as they all heard the door to the bathroom close and lock.
“It’s OK. Maria, no worries. You don’t even have a soap dish in your shower,” Kyle remarked with a chuckle.
“SHUT UP, KYLE!” yelled Max and Michael with simultaneous horror.

It wasn’t until I was watching Cal one day go on and on about how Vilondra was his and ‘no matter what he was going to have her’ that it hit me… See, I got the easy part of being Vilondra - Khivar, Cal, and Nicholas, they don’t want me, they want her. She is the one who has to worry about going back and she is the one who has all the burden of being ‘the princess.’ I was just a dupe.” She paused to take a drink of her tea before adding, “she’s also not the one who helped to kill her brother. She and Max would never think of doing that to each other. Sure they fight…but what siblings don’t? Zan and I never got along. I always thought he was too soft, and being with Rath didn’t help.” The tall alien girl looked over at Maria and reached out to put her hand on her arm. “Oh Maria, I’m sorry, I didn’t think about it but it must be weird for you that I was with Rath…” Her voice trailed off then as if she was running out of steam after revealing so much painful stuff.
“Lonnie, a long time ago we all decided none of them were like their dupes. Michael is not Rath, and it doesn’t bother me because I know how much Michael loves me. Plus I also know you didn’t love Rath,” Maria said patting Lonnie’s hand.
Lonnie nodded in understanding and continued with only a little hesitation, “I feel like I have so much to make up for, but also I need to help myself. I need closure and knowing Isabel is finally happy will give me that…do you understand?”
“Better then you think. All I can say is I that I do believe that you are here to help, but let me warn you, we all work together as a tight family and if someone crosses this family it’s not a pretty sight,” Maria said with warning in her flashing green eyes.
“I do believe I have seen some of that teamwork in person, so believe me, I won’t forget.” Lonnie chuckled. She admired Maria for being so willing to stand up for her family.
“Won’t forget what?” Michael asked as he walked into the kitchen, planting a kiss on Maria’s lips as he walked by to check for coffee.
“She didn’t forget how we all work together as a family. Speaking of, I better not see you giving Alex one dirty look when they decide to come and talk to us, do you hear me?” Maria said as she planted her hands on her hips.
Michael grunted and grabbed a coffee mug and poured himself a cup. “They just better not turn into Max and Liz. It’s one thing to have your brother having sex all the time, but I don’t want to KNOW about Isabel having it,” he grumbled.
Lonnie laughed at how protective Michael was. Boy, was he in for a surprise.
“Michael, I hate to burst your bubble but Isabel has three years of stored up energy, they will definitely be worse then Max and Liz for awhile,” Lonnie told him teasingly.
“Oh, fricken wonderful!” Michael exclaimed.
Maria got up and moved around to face him in the small kitchen.
“You WILL be happy for your sister. She deserves this and so does Alex. Lonnie will help them keep a lid on it in public and besides they don’t even live here so it won’t be under your nose. But let me tell you one thing, Spaceboy, you will behave, and you will do it with a smile. Got it?” Maria stated firmly as she gave him an emphatic poke in the chest.
“Yes dear,” He mumbled into his coffee.
“I’m going to call Tess and see if she and Kyle want to come over. We can at least start talking about a plan,” Maria said and grabbed the phone. She paused for a second and yelled out, “Max, get off Liz and you all come out here and have breakfast, so we can talk about helping your sister!”
Later that day…
Isabel and Alex had decided to go over to the house and see what everyone was coming up with. They were all sitting around in the living room talking.
“Isabel, are you OK? “Cuse you look kinda funny.” Liz asked.
Alex looked up at Isabel and noticed a light red coloring to her face so he leaned over and patted her hand to reassure her.
Maria saw something was up. “Come on ladies, we need to have girl talk in the kitchen. We can also decide what to order for dinner,” she said as she stood up unceremoniously.
“You too Lonnie,” Liz and Tess said at the same time.
Lonnie looked up in surprise but followed them into the kitchen. After they had decided to order Italian food and so the food thing was all settled, they all looked at Isabel with unabashed curiosity.
“Isabel, what’s wrong…are you OK?” Maria inquired gently.
“Yes, I’m fine - just embarrassed -I will be fine,” Isabel answered, hiding her eyes as she spoke.
“Alright, we said no more secrets. Is everything OK with you and Alex?” Liz asked in a concerned best friend kind of voice.
“Yes, yes, Alex is wonderful. There’s just something that happened today and I can’t seem to get over it,” Isabel managed to get out even as she had placed her hands over her face.
“Don’t you think telling us about it might make you feel better?” Maria said and rubbed Isabel’s back.
“No,” Isabel said, still mumbling through her hands.
“Come on, I’m sure it wasn’t that bad. Tell us and then maybe we can help,” Tess said as she too started to get concerned for her friend.
Isabel looked up and saw all of their concerned faces and decided what the hell, maybe she WOULD feel better if she bit the bullet and told them. She took a deep breath and started…
“Alex and I had a wonderful morning and I showed him what Lonnie had explained to me about the building up of my energy and he was great about it and everything. I went to get in the shower and he jumped in there with me. I didn’t know he was going to come in there with me. Anyways one thing led to another and we got carried away in his shower…” she trailed off.
“OK, so what? That’s great, right?” Maria said with evident confusion, trying to understand exactly what the problem was.
“Yes it was great. The only problem is…I was in the middle of a …umm, *you know* and I grabbed ahold of the soap dish - you know the one that is built into the shower wall - and I sort of ripped it out of the wall.” Her answer spilled out of her mouth quickly as she glanced around at her friends with a truly horrified expression on her face.
Everyone was silent for a few seconds and then someone started to giggle, and then Isabel heard another giggle. Pretty soon they were all laughing so hard tears were rolling down their faces. Well, everyone but Isabel was laughing.
“I do not see the humor in this, AT ALL!” she said, raising her voice.
“We…are …sorry…but…OMG!” Liz answered, as she desperately tried to get her breath back. “I thought Max and I were bad but we have never done that!”
“Thanks, Liz,” Isabel complained but even she almost cracked a smile.
Hearing all the noise the guys all came into the kitchen to see what was happening. They found all of the girls holding their stomachs, doubled over and nearly wheezing with laughter. Alex felt her embarrassment and assumed that Isabel must have told them so he walked over to take her in his arms.
“What’s so funny?” Kyle asked, never one to be left out of a joke.
“Alex and Isabel were in the shower…. HAHAHA…and she ripped the soap dish off the wall…OMG!” Tess told him in between maniacal giggles.
“How the hell did she do that and why would she….? Oh wait, duh,” Kyle said, turning to look at Alex and Isabel with eyes wide. “Way to go, Dude!”
Michael and Max were still confused. Then it hit them and they turned to look at Alex with rage as they started to move towards him.
“I don’t think so! If you’re mad then take it out on your girlfriends - they were the ones who asked what was wrong with me,” Isabel said fiercely as she moved to stand in front of Alex in order to block her brothers from getting to him.
Finally, Liz, who was feeling a little badly about the situation, straightened up and moved over to Max. “I don’t think you want me to tell them about the time you blasted a hole in the wall of the Crashdown, also in the middle of a…” she whispered but was interrupted quickly by Max.
“Nope, and besides - I fixed that!” he whispered back, kissing her sweetly.
“Well, now that we have all had a great big laugh at my and Isabel’s expense can we go back into the living room and start making a plan?” Alex said, trying to take the heat off of Isabel.
“Sure Alex,” Liz said, grabbing Max’s hand and pulling him into the living room to wait for the food.
Alex and Isabel were the last ones to walk out of the kitchen. “Are you OK? I told you it wasn’t a big deal. You even fixed it,” he thought, trying to sooth her.
“Yes, I’m OK, I think I’m more mad that we didn’t finish,” she thought back with a pout.
“Hey, wait a second. We did finish. In fact, if I’m not mistaken we started all over.”
“Yes, we did but that doesn’t count - I still want more.”
“Well, we can always go into the bathroom here and see what we can tear off the walls!”
She smacked him lightly and pulled him back to her before they could get all the way into the living room. “Don’t make promises you won’t keep,” Isabel said, kissing him thoroughly.
“I wasn’t kidding. Come on! How long till the food gets here?” Alex asked, challenging her with a lascivious grin.
“Thirty more minutes. And you’re going to regret asking,” Isabel said in a breathless hurry and proceeded to finish pulling him towards the bathroom instead of the living room.
“Oh geez! Am I going to have to start yelling at you two also?” Maria asked as she watched them duck into the bathroom.
“You can yell, Maria but they’ll just learn selective hearing like the rest of us,” said Max much to Liz’s glee.
“Yeah, you’re real funny, Max! Come on guys. We have plans to make!” Maria called out in the direction of the couple as they slunk away.
“We can make plans after we eat and we still have time before the food gets here,” came Isabel’s rushed answer as they all heard the door to the bathroom close and lock.
“It’s OK. Maria, no worries. You don’t even have a soap dish in your shower,” Kyle remarked with a chuckle.
“SHUT UP, KYLE!” yelled Max and Michael with simultaneous horror.

Disclaimer: Roswell and the characters in this story are not mine. Just Borrowing them.
Summary: Alex and Isabel never broke up in Season 1 and this story follows through to season 2. All the stuff happens, with the exception of Grant. I can’t really go into much more but as you read you will catch on…I hope!
A/N: This is only part of the next part, I'm still working on it and it's kinda long (well for me) I will try to get it posted within the next few days
Thanks to my wonderful and talented Beta Tracie, you rock as always! And KISS MY ASS FRED! (it's been awhile since I did that)
Part 10a
The food came and everyone settles in to eat. Maria cast many dirty looks at Isabel and Alex, finding that they were only smirking at her. She was in all honesty very happy for her friends but she still did not understand the “sex thing.” She and Michael had never been that way, yes they loved to be with each other and maybe when they first started making love they were a bit of what you could call “horn dogs” but never to the extreme like Max and Liz and now Isabel and Alex. Tess and Kyle weren’t like them either; maybe it was an Evans thing? Or a royal thing, whatever the case my be, it was a thing she was glad not to have to deal with.
“So where are we going to start with this?” Maria asks.
“Well since Cal is a famous director I thought we could look online and see what we can dig up.” Alex answers, getting up to grab his laptop.
“Do you really think anything online is true?” Kyle inquires.
“You’d be surprised at what is true and what isn’t,” said Alex.
Everyone crowds around as Alex begins a search. After typing in several different keywords and not coming up with anything, he sits back for a moment.
“Max, what sort of movies is Cal involved in?” he asks.
“Mostly Sci-Fi I think, big surprise there” Max adds.
After some time and some clicking Alex sits back on the couch and chuckles.
“What’s so funny Alex?” Tess questions.
“Yeah I’m not sure anything is funny here,” Michael states.
“No you’re right, this thing with Cal isn’t funny but THIS is.” Alex trails off, turning the laptop slightly so Michael could look at it.
Michael looks at the laptop for a minute then giggles in a very unMichael like way, bringing everyone to gather around the table. Isabel was the first to gasp, followed closely by Maria.
“What the hell is that?” asks Kyle.
“That my dear friend would be what you call fan fiction, written by the fans for the fans,” Alex finishes with a wink
“ Okay why would anyone want to spend all that time writing something that looks a lot like porn…at least to me,” Kyle asks, bewildered. “(And believe me when I say I know my porn."
“Yes, he’s telling you the truth….but that’s not porn it just looks like fun,” Tess replies.
“Tess, that is SO porn, I mean listen to this,” Isabel begins starting to read out loud
She took his aching cock in her mouth, running her tongue from the base, up to the cherub head, pulling it into her mouth.
“AAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! That feels so good, HARDER!” he said putting his hands in her hair
“Do you like that?” She asked sucking him like a Popsicle.
“OH MY GOD YES!” he screamed allowing his seed to explode all over her face
“Ok…Ok...no more please!” groans Max.
Smirking, Isabel stops reading; thoroughly enjoying the fact it was grossing her brother out.
“I can’t believe what some people do with their spare time, why write about it when you could be acting it out,” Kyle states, with a huge grin
Tess leans over smacking him lightly and smiling. Max sits with his hands over his face trying to get the image out of his head and his sister’s voice out of his brain.
“That’s nothing, there’s this one site that has all these really great stories about every TV show person you can think of. It’s called Majik’s World of…” Liz said, her voice trailing off after realizing everyone was staring at her “What?”
Hiding a giggle behind her hand Isabel smirks at Liz “Spend a lot of time reading, hey Liz?”
“What? Umm…No, I just happened to run across it…” Liz stumbles.
Everyone held in laughter watching Liz stumble over her words. Looking down at Max who was trying not to laugh, she leans down to whisper in his ear “ Hey where do you think I get some of my ideas?”
Max’s eyes light up and he let allows the laugh escape, reaching up to kiss her.
“Okay you two, don’t start, we have work to do.” Maria frowns looking at them.
Lonnie sits back watching them all in awe, this was not the group she had seen before and she couldn’t get over how great they all seemed to get along together. Looking over at Isabel and Alex, she watches them stare into each other’s eyes communicating silently to each other. Isabel breaks her heated stare with Alex and looks over at Lonnie. She smiles at her, knowing what she was thinking.
“Well all this sex talk had made me hungry, how about take-out from the Crash?” Michael said
“Michael we just ate an hour ago” Maria exclaims.
“So I’m hungry again, I’ll just run and get some hamburgers and fries. I think Cherie and Michelle are there right now, they won’t mind.” Michael answers matter of factly.
“Come on midget, you and your woman come with me to help get all the stuff together,” he said to Kyle and Tess
“Ok giant, we are here to serve you,” Kyle answers sarcastically, pulling a laughing Tess with him
“Fine! We’re never going to get anything done….HEY! Where do you two think you’re going?” Maria screams as Max and Liz snuck off to the bedroom.
“We have to go look at something we’ll be out when the food gets here…” Liz’s voice trails off as she’s pulled by Max into their bedroom.
“You know you’re going to pay for this!” Maria yells back, stomping her foot while everyone else laughs.
“Yes Maria, we will” Max yells out before shutting the door and pulling Liz close to him. “You feel like doing anything we read about?” Max whispers in the base of her neck, Liz giggles and closes her eyes enjoying the feeling. “Hmm…maybe something I read about the other day…” she trails off pulling his shirt over his head. “Who knew reading could be so much fun….” Liz starts to say as she is pulled into an intense kiss.
Maria sits fuming as she watches Alex, Lonnie and Isabel still searching the Internet on Alex’s laptop. Watching them, she reflects how odd it looks to see Lonnie sitting between Alex and Isabel, when Lonnie interrupts her thoughts.
“HEY! Guys give me a break will you please!!” Lonnie exclaims.
Alex has the forethought to at least blush while Isabel looks very pleased with herself.
“Sorry Lonnie,” Alex mumbles.
“Why don’t you too go find a room? My thoughts are getting crowded, and the images are getting a little hard to handle,” Lonnie said.
Maria looks on with interest, “What do you mean Lonnie? They just look like they’re sitting there.”
“Yeah, they are, but Isabel is sending Alex…interesting thoughts, Alex must be used to it by now but pretty soon I’m going to need a cold shower.” Lonnie states.
Isabel laughs, stands up grabs Alex and starts to pull him down the hall.
“Hey where do you think you’re going? We have work to do….you already got some in the bathroom!” Maria yells.
“You heard Lonnie we have to help her out. If I have my way it won’t take long!” Isabel says as she pulls Alex into Maria and Michael’s room.
“MY ROOM!! Is there no place safe from you people?” Maria yells out down the hall as the door closes “UGH!” she exclaims sitting down on the couch by Lonnie.
“I don’t understand why these Evans people are so damn horny!” Maria exclaims.
Lonnie laughs at the frustrated Maria. “ It’s not that they are horny, it’s a royal thing….the bonding is so intense between royals that they can feel each other constantly. Think about it, you and Michael are bonded, but if you could feel every single thought going through his mind all the time would you all ever leave the bedroom?”
“Well I would hope he didn’t think about sex every minute of the day…ok wait, this is Michael we are talking about and he’s a man, I see what your saying…but, why only the royals?” Maria asks.
Lonnie was about to answer when they both hear a loud moan coming from the back of the house.
“Ok guys! Give us a break PLEASE!” Maria yells.
Lonnie giggles. “The royals received the gift of the intense bond way back in our history. It’s one reason everyone wants to be with them.”
“So is it like that for you?” Maria asks.
“No, to some degree yes…but more like it is for you and Michael. The bad thing is I can feel the connection with Isabel and Alex, although I think that’s mostly because I interfered with their bond. I’m hoping when this is all over I won’t be able to anymore,” Lonnie answers sadly
Maria leans over and puts her hand on Lonnie’s, patting it lightly “ We will fix this. You made a mistake, the important thing is now you’re trying to fix it.”
Meanwhile in the back of the house
“Max…we have to keep it down” Liz says in between kisses and trying not to moan
Kissing his way down her neck and onto her stomach, Max works his hands along with his mouth, pulling her panties down her legs. He glances up watching Liz try to maintain some semblance of control.
“I want you to lose control,” he says with a grin, moving down the length of her body to show her exactly what he had in mind.
Alex stops what he is doing after he hears Liz moan. He’d been caught up in what was happening between Isabel and him, but Liz’s moan brought reality crashing down around him.
“Oh no you don’t. Forget them,” Isabel say, leaning over to whisper in his ear “ All you need to worry about is me!” she adds sitting up.
Alex looks up at the beautiful and naked Isabel, “thinking about who?” he says, sitting up to capture her lips with his, running his hands over her back as they glide together.
“I love you,” she says.
“ I love you too,” he answers.
Same time at the crash down
“Hello anyone here?” Tess asks as she walks into the CrashDown with Michael and Kyle.
“ I’m here,” a timid voice says from the behind the counter
They watches as Tracie stands up, her gaze holding on Kyle. Tess smiles knowingly.
“Hi Tracie, I didn’t know you where working today?” Kyle says, smiling at her.
“Hi Tess, Michael and….Kyle” the latter coming out in a whisper
“Yea whatever, we need to pick up some food…is anyone else here?” Michael asked
Standing up straighter, Tracie takes notice of how stressed Michael is. He was usually pretty nice, well, as nice as it was possible for Michael to be. “ I’m sure I can whip up something, what did you need?” Tracie answers in a tone of voice that shocked Michael, making Kyle and Tess laugh.
“Well umm if you don’t mind, we would just like some burgers and fries to go…if it’s no trouble?” Michael says clearly not wanting to piss Tracie off anymore then he already has.
Tracie smiled at the small group, letting her smile linger on Kyle the longest and heads to the back.

Ok I will TRY to post the rest of this part tomorrow, but since I was asked so nicely I had to post some of it….

“Hello anyone here?” Tess asks as she walks into the CrashDown with Michael and Kyle.
“ I’m here,” a timid voice says from the behind the counter
They watches as Tracie stands up, her gaze holding on Kyle. Tess smiles knowingly.
“Hi Tracie, I didn’t know you where working today?” Kyle says, smiling at her.
“Hi Tess, Michael and….Kyle” the latter coming out in a whisper
“Yea whatever, we need to pick up some food…is anyone else here?” Michael asked
Standing up straighter, Tracie takes notice of how stressed Michael is. He was usually pretty nice, well, as nice as it was possible for Michael to be. “ I’m sure I can whip up something, what did you need?” Tracie answers in a tone of voice that shocked Michael, making Kyle and Tess laugh.
“Well umm if you don’t mind, we would just like some burgers and fries to go…if it’s no trouble?” Michael says clearly not wanting to piss Tracie off anymore then he already has.
Tracie smiled at the small group, letting her smile linger on Kyle the longest and heads to the back.
TBC...

Part 2 as promised
thanks for ALL the awesome FB! Here’s the next part and I’m working on part 11 already so hopefully the wait won’t be long
Part 10-B
Both bedroom doors open at the same time letting out two very happy girls. Isabel and Liz find themselves staring at one another with a smile of understanding.
“We haven’t had a lot of time to talk since this whole thing happened but I want you to know, I’m very happy for you and Alex,” Liz expresses “And I’m sorry for letting it go as long as it did…I wish…”
Walking up to Liz, Isabel puts her hand on her shoulder “Liz you didn’t know, none of us did…I don’t want to regret anything when it comes to Alex, but I feel that I should have known, this is because of me…but instead of regret I plan to spend the rest of my life making it up to him.” She finishes by pulling a shocked Liz into a strong hug. “Thank you for making my brother so happy and bringing Alex into my life.” She said kindly in a whisper
Liz is at a lose for words, yes she knows Isabel isn’t the ‘Ice Queen’ everyone labeled her but, she and Isabel have never really been that close, Liz always assumed it was because when she came into the picture Isabel and Max weren’t as close anymore, also in part Liz felt she and Isabel were so different. Standing there hugging her, she realizes they are a lot alike, and the fact that they both loved these two men so strongly makes them even more so.
“Come on, lets go deal with Maria,” Liz says, finally gaining her voice “and you’re welcome.”
Walking out into the living room Liz and Isabel see Lonnie and Maria sitting on the couch. Looking up Maria smiles at the girls as they enter.
“Hey girls, where are your better halves, too tired to move?” she asks snickering.
“Nope, Alex is still trying to fix the bed, I think we broke it.” Isabel replies.
“WHAT?!?!” Maria exclaims. “MY BED! UGH! I can’t believe you people, how could you do that? Isabel shouldn’t you be helping him with your powers…I mean…Do you have to go and break everything…GEEZ!” She trails off as the three girls began to laugh “WHAT?”
“Maria, I’m kidding, he fell asleep, I thought I’d let him sleep until Michael gets back with the food, I think everything is catching up with him. We didn’t break anything, I promise.” Isabel says walking over to sit down next to Maria pulling her into a hug.
“Thank you for everything, I don’t know what I would have done if you hadn’t gotten him to come back, I owe you so much” Isabel said with tears in her eyes
Maria, Liz and Lonnie all looked on a little shocked, Isabel was not one to really show her affections to anyone but Alex. What had come over her?
“I’m just happy that my friends are happy, that being said you don’t owe me anything…now where the heck is Space Boy?” Maria asks.
Crash Down
Michael, Tess and Kyle sit patiently waiting for their food to finish. The bell signaling someone entering rings and in walks Michelle and Cherie.
“Hey guys! How’s everyone today?” Michelle asks, looking around for a certain amber-eyed hunk of man meat
“We are fine and he’s not here, he stayed at home with the little woman, we’re on a food run. Maybe now that you’re here it will finally get done…” Michael answers. He hears a throat clear behind him and flinches before turning around slowly, knowing when he does, he’ll find Tracie standing there.
“Your food’s done,” Tracie says walking past Michael and handing it to Kyle, “I’ll put it on your tab,” she says softly
“Ok, Tracie thanks so much!” Kyle says, grabbing the food and giving Tracie a smile and a wink.
A sigh escapes her lips and Tess has to hold back a giggle. “Thanks Tracie we appreciate it.” Tess says.
“Aww you’re leaving so soon, can’t you stay for a little while? I almost miss customers. It will be nice when the Crash opens back up for good.” Michelle says.
“We’ve got business to take care of, but thanks for the food and you all lock the door behind us.” Michael says,
“Michael I never knew you cared, you sweetie!” Cherie says pulling him into a hug,
Michael blushes and tries to return the uncomfortable hug. “ Of course I care. Maria would be very upset if anything happened to you guys and it’s getting dark and well just because…” he stuttered.
Cherie laughs at Michael’s discomfort, “Tell Max ‘Hi’ from us and to come see us more often.”
Michael grumbles and starts to head out the door. Stopping just short of the door, he turns around, “ Sorry about being rude before, and thanks for the food” he states
Tracie smiles at him and nods, a new understanding has passed between them and she is quite pleased with it.
“Ok girls, we will see ya later, bye!” Kyle says walking out the door with Tess saying bye as well.
“Bye Kyle!” Tracie yells a little to loudly, turning around to head back in the kitchen she is met with the knowing stares of Michelle and Cherie.
“WHAT?” Tracie asks.
They smile at her and start to gather things to get started on work.
“Where’s Lucia? She better not be watching Buffy reruns again, I’m telling you we seem to have lost her to another world.” Michelle said chuckling.
“Pfft, that’s nothing my friends Lindsay and Angel are all into this show about this teenage detective, I mean it’s good but you can’t beat what happens in real life right here in Roswell” Tracie says
“I totally agree.” Cherie answers.
Back at the house
Isabel knew Alex was tired but couldn’t resist going and giving him a wake-up call. Walking slowly into the room she stops to watch him sleep, her heart swelling at the sight of him so peaceful. Taking the opportunity she walks over to the bed and sits down. She begins to study him, starting at his face and moving slowly down his body. He really was a handsome man, beautifully shaped eyes, long eye lashes, strong chin, wonderfully shaped nose, broad shoulders, nice filled out chest, flat stomach and nice butt (ok so she can’t see his butt but she KNOWS this.) Isabel is so lost in thought she doesn’t realize Alex had woken up and is watching her study him.
“Do I get to check out all your lovely assets?” he asks.
Jumping at the sound of his voice Isabel blushes, “I was just coming into wake you up but you looked so good laying there I thought I would just let it all soak in…your really here.” She said while a loan tear makes its way down her face.
Sitting up, Alex pulls her into a tight hug; he can feel all her emotions coming thru and is trying to decide if she is happy or upset.
“I’m ok Alex, just feeling a bit emotional today for some reason, I think it’s all hit me at once.” Isabel says into the side of Alex’s neck.
Rubbing her back slowly he comforts her, “Maybe your tired?” He questions.
“No, I’m ok just a woman thing, I think, “ She responds pulling him closer “Michaels not back with the food yet so there’s no rush to go out there…could you hold me for awhile?”
“I’d be happy to,” he says pulling them down on the bed to cuddle. “Lay on me a little and I’ll scratch your back.”
Isabel relaxes as soon as Alex hands begin to lightly scratch over her back. She lies there enjoying it for a minute. Suddenly, she sits up and pulls her shirt and bra off before lying back down on top of him. “You can reach more this way,” she states.
Of course Alex can reach more but having a topless Isabel laying on him is getting to be difficult. He fell asleep without his shirt and can feel her body began to respond to the touches and knows this was leading to more then cuddling.
“Isabel, if we don’t get up now, we won’t be out there when Michael comes back with the food,” Alex tries to reason.
“Hmmm, so…” Isabel answers moving up so she is at his eye level.
Leaning in she moves her lips over his lightly causing him to shiver, she pulls away to look in his eyes and feels the love radiant thru them. Alex takes his hand and puts it behind her head to pull her into another kiss, this one harder. He nips at her bottom lip then the top making her moan lightly as he suddenly flips them over so he is on top of her. He begins to kiss his way around her neck, shoulder and then down to her breasts, Isabel bucks up slightly, closing her eyes enjoying the sensations Alex is causing her. As Alex begins his assault on her breasts with his tongue his hands begin to unbutton her jeans and move them down her hips, pulling her panties with them. (Realizing now he wishes he had not put his jeans back on before he fell asleep) Pulling away much to the protest of Isabel, Alex quickly sheds the rest of his clothes, stopping for a moment to look at her he hovers over her for a moment then quickly enters her, both of them stopping to enjoy the feeling of being joined. Slowly he begins to move creating the feelings only they can give to one another. After sometime Alex senses Isabel is beginning to come to an end and speeds up his movements, capturing her mouth with his they finish together
“ I honestly didn’t come in here to do more then wake you up,” Isabel says, still trying to get her breath back
“Well I say you wake me up like that all the time.” Alex says leaning into to kiss her flushed forehead “We should get up and go out there now, Maria is going to kill us!” he says laughing and starting to get up
“No she won’t, she’s happy for us, but I better clean up her bed or she might really get mad,” Isabel says sitting up and looking around for her clothes.
Michael walks in just as Alex and Isabel come down the hallway holding hands. He smiles at them and sets the food down on the table. “ Ok peeps we need to eat and then really get down to business here, did any of you find anything while we were gone?” Michael asks
“Lonnie and I found a few things worth looking into after we eat, “ Maria states looking at the group. Liz had gone in to wake up Max who had apparently fallen asleep, Isabel had gone to get Alex along time before Liz went to get Max but she suspected they were up to their usual thing and decided not to harp on it, she was happy…they all were, now all they had to do was fix Cal.
Isabel looks at the group all getting their food and once again has to fight tears from coming down her face.
Lonnie sat back watching Isabel, something was wrong.
Isabel felt Lonnie’s concern; looking over at her she smiles at her dupe with reassurance. “I’m ok Lonnie, just letting everything sink in and feeling happy for the first time in a long time.”
Lonnie was not convinced but smiles back. In the back of her mind she knew it was something more but decides to let it rest…for now.

Part 11
“Whitman! Get your cute ass up here!” Isabel yells in anger
‘Uh oh’ Alex thinks.
“Uh oh is right MISTER!” she yells as Alex comes up the hallway with a drink in his hand
“Iz… I was trying to hurry, here’s your drink,” he says trying to figure out what had happened since they got home for their friends house. They had barely made it in the door before Isabel was literally ripping his clothes from his body. Not that he was complaining, it was two hours later and she had seemed satisfied but then she had asked the question every man dreads.
“Well maybe if I wasn’t so FAT, I could have gotten the drink myself, ” she says while looking at him with disdain.
“Honey, I never said you were fat…remember I said the other day you were looking skinny?” Alex says as gently as possible
“Yes, you did but then when I asked you if my legs were looking a little heavy, you said it was good for me to put on weight” she replies, still angry
“I didn’t mean it that way and you know it. You look amazing and it doesn’t matter if you did put on weight or not, you’ll always be beautiful to me:” Alex says, trying to dig himself out of this hole he seems to have gotten in
“So you do think I’m fat!” she yells in horror.
Alex stands in the middle of the room looking her in shock. Not wanting to say any more, he moves over to get in the bed to comfort her.
“OH no you don’t!” she yells throwing a pillow at him “Go sleep on the couch, and don’t try to talk to me, I’m closing our connection until you learn you can’t call me fat!” she cries. Pulling the covers up and waving her hand she turns off the lights.
Alex stands in the room by the bed staring down at her, “Isabel,” he says softly, When he gets no answer, he tried to call her name thru his connection only to find that she had closed it.. He grabs the pillow and walks slowly downstairs. After he settles on the couch he lays awake trying to think what in the hell could be wrong with her…maybe this was an alien thing. After sometime, he drifts off to a light slumber still thinking about Isabel.
Hearing a sound Alex opens his eyes and looks around. He glances over at the clock on the wall, only to find that he had only been asleep for about 30 mins.
“Maybe I should check on her,” he says out loud. Deciding this was a good idea he gets up to walk quietly up the stairs.
‘Ok, that’s weird. The door is closed’ he thinks. He puts his hand on the doorknob and is hit with an intense flash, making him stumble back ‘what the hell!’ Rushing into the room Alex is horrified at what he sees, it looks as if a battle has taken place…and Isabel is nowhere in sight.
“Isabel!” Alex yells hoping he’s in some bad dream and she will come and fix this
Getting no answer he rushes to the window in just enough time to see a Limo and someone pushing a very upset Isabel into it. He forces himself not to jump out the window after her, he stops for a moment… to gather his thoughts. Grabbing the cell phone off the dresser he throws on pants, a shirt and shoes as he runs down the stairs and out the door. Dialing the cell phone he hears Michael pick up “Isabel…Cal…HURRY!!” He screams and then hangs up throwing the phone down he runs out the door.
“Isabel!” he yells as the limo starts to pull away.
‘ALEX!!!’ he hears in his mind
“ISABEL!! ISABEL!!!” Alex yells running with all his might to catch up to the speeding vehicle, as he runs out of breath and it turns the corner Alex trips in his haste, jumping back up he tries to run after it again, looking up he can’t see it anymore.
‘I LOVE YOU!’ he hears from Isabel in anguish and fear as he feels their connection open and close abruptly.
“NO!!! NO!! ISABEL!!” he screams as he falls again
Alex faintly hears the sound of a car pull up behind him and footsteps as he lays on his hands and knees on the ground, tears are streaming down his face. The anger building up in him is like nothing Alex has ever felt before, his hands begin to glow and the ground begins to shake. He hears Maria and Tess gasp as the windows in all the cars on the street burst sending glass flying all around him.
“Alex” he hears Liz say softly
“She’s so scared Liz, I only felt her for a second but she’s so sacred…” he trails off putting his head down. Liz fights tears as she looks back at Max and Michael, both of them still shocked at what Alex had done. Michael breaking out of his shock first, walks up to Alex and scoops down to pick him up. Realizing Alex is not a gangly little boy anymore he decides rather then setting him on his own two feet he would carry him.
“We’ll get her back, I promise you….” trying not to choke up Michael whispers to Alex as he breaks down in Michael’s arms. Everyone was quiet as they walked back to the house, Michael carrying Alex the whole way.
After Alex had cleaned up some they all sat in quiet letting it sink in, no one knowing what to say.
“I have a plan that may work but it’s going to take all of us… Cal can’t see me, not yet” Lonnie said hopeful, what she had witnessed between Alex having powers and what Michael had done for Alex she knew she had to help them no matter what…even if it meant her life.
Alex looks her in the eyes, trying not to be hurt looking at her, knowingly he nods his head “I’ll do anything to have her back safe and sound…anything.” Alex says looking over at Max, the meaning in his words very clear …he didn’t care if the entire world found out about them, he would get her back.
Max looks over at Michael, a quiet understanding passes between them. “Whatever it takes… we’ll do whatever it takes,” Max says. “ What’s your plan Lonnie?”
As they start to form a plan Michael gets up to get a drink, as he’s walking by he feels a hand rest on his arm, “ Thanks,” Alex says looking up at him.
“Welcome.” Michael answers back as he walks into the kitchen, stopping at the sink to gain control of his emotions Michael feels small arms wrap around him as he breaks down.
“We will get your sister back space boy” Maria says softly
Wiping his face he turns to take her in his arms, hugging her tightly. “We have to. When I pasted by Alex he touched me, he sent me what she was feeling Maria…I’ve never felt fear like that…we have to bring her back to us…” he said trailing off putting his face in her neck and holding back a sob. Maria caressed his back as he broke down; she had never seen them like this. Kyle wasn’t even cracking jokes, and he hadn’t let Tess move more then a foot away from him.
After a few minutes Michael and Maria walked out into the living room where everyone was finishing up.
“Ok so it’s settled.” Lonnie said
“Yep at first light…we go after Cal…and get Isabel back.” Alex stated
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cal stepped out from behind the bluff where he had hidden Isabel and stood there, defiant, facing the small group of would-be rescuers assembled against him fifty yards away. He looked at each one for a moment, taking stock of his situation, then scowled… “Be smart and go home… all of you! This isn’t your fight anymore. It’s out of your hands. This ill-advised vendetta will only get you killed if you persist in it.”
“You’re wrong,” Alex yells back, “It is our fight. It’s my fight! Isabel and I are bonded! You must know that by now, Cal.”
At the mention of the bond Alex and Isabel shared, Cal shuddered uncontrollably, but only for a moment…
“I warned you! I’m not responsible for what happens to you now. You have chosen your fate. Your deaths… are on your heads.”
Cal had no sooner uttered the last word of his threat than he drew his hand back behind his head like a major league baseball player preparing to throw the winning no-hitter; only this was no game… and in Cal’s mind, it was no contest either. He had given them a chance. They had rejected it, ignored his warning. It was not so much that he cared what happened to them really; it was just… well, it would have been tidier his way… if they had just gone home. Now it would be messy.
Cal brought his hand forward with an unimaginable force, heaving a massive ball of energy through the air. Max dove for the ground, taking Liz with him, as Michael dove the other way with Maria. Tess and Alex, thinking the same thing at the same time, shoved each other, and the crackling ball of energy passed between them, striking a rocky outcrop behind them and vaporizing it.
Max and Michael did not hesitate to return Cal the favor. Even before they had risen from the ground, both fired off a blast of energy from the palms of their hands. Either of these blasts would have incinerated an average man easily, but Cal was not an average man. Technically, he wasn’t a man at all… even in Antarian terms. He was a shapeshifter. Using the backs of his hands, he deflected the blasts with almost no effort at all, sending them flying in different directions.
Hoping Cal would not be expecting alien powers from her, Liz stepped forward and threw three quick blasts; and Maria, who was standing beside her, threw another, in rapid succession; but these suffered the same fate that Max and Michael’s had.
Although, on some level, Cal was actually enjoying this display of his superiority and dominance over the group opposing him, he did not intend to merely stand there all day and parry with those less powerful than himself, much less with the pathetic and insufferable “lesser” beings they had chosen to align themselves with. They had managed to dodge a simple blast, but he doubted they would be able to cope with a scattered blast. It was one of his specialties… or, it once had been. The truth is, in recent years, Cal had had little reason to use these particular powers; but this fact did not seem to have diminished his abilities. Cal moved his right hand to the left side of his face then immediately slung the hand out; and as he did, a stream of energy emitted from his palm and broke up into about twenty smaller masses. These flew at his pursuers like a fiery hailstorm that could not be avoided. Reacting at the same time, Max and Michael threw out a force field; and as Cal’s blasts hit the shield, they broke into even smaller masses, some of which were deflected. However, not all of them were… and Maria and Kyle were hit. A quick check, fortunately, told Max that the damage to both was slight, and he would be able to heal it later.
Angered and horrified at seeing Kyle and Maria hit, Tess closed her eyes and concentrated, and a nearly invisible sheet of energy from her mind leapt across the gulf between them, plunging Cal into the core of an energy holocaust. Any human, in Cal’s position, would have been killed. Every blood vessel in their body would have burst. But Cal was not human. He had seen it coming and had hastily shielded himself. After the wave of energy had passed, he dropped the shield. But what happened next even Cal did not foresee…
A blast caught him squarely in the middle of the chest, causing him to stagger backwards momentarily. As energy blasts go, this one was not that powerful, but it had caught Cal totally unprepared. It had come from Alex.
Cal quickly regathered his wits about him…
“So! The little scorpion has a stinger!”
“And he’s not afraid to use it,” Alex postured threateningly.
Cal grinned, his confidence unwavering even if his feet momentarily had. “Your feeble blasts are impressive, I suppose… for a human. But they’re nothing to me. I should have guessed that the bond you…” Cal stumbled over the words for a moment, and he seemed to be having a hard time saying it, “Your… relationship with Isabel… would give you some kind of ability. But I’m embarrassed for you, frankly. It’s almost sad to see how pathetic your meager powers are. You’re truly no threat to me. On Antar, you would barely be amusing to a three-year-old. Still, you must know that you have sealed your fate.”
“I’m shaking,” Alex said defiantly. Actually… he was. But he was not about to let that fact be seen. In any case, he wasn’t sure that it was from any fear of Cal; he accepted whatever might happen to him now. It was the anger and indignation that he was feeling because of what Cal had done to Isabel that caused him to shake.
Cal seemed to wind up his arm, preparing for the throw. Alex wondered if there was any advantage to this or if Cal was just being overly dramatic. There was no question that the shapeshifter and one-time royal protector was powerful, but he did have a flair for the drama. It had to be a result of his time spent as a movie director on earth. Even so, a good director knew when to call for action. Cal brought his hand forward powerfully and threw another mass of energy, this time directly at Alex. Alex dodged to one side, avoiding it, but Cal brought his other hand up unseen. It was already glowing with a mass of crackling energy that he had been hiding, and Alex was not prepared for it. Off balance from dodging the first blast, there was no way he could avoid this one… Alex put his hands in front of his face, as the powerful mass of energy slammed into him.
Cal waited… and watched… for Alex to fall apart and disintegrate… or burn up… or something! After several very long moments, Alex slowly lowered his hands and looked at them. It was hard to say who was more surprised… Alex… Cal… or Max, Michael, and the others…
“How did you do that,” Tess asked breathlessly.
Alex shook his head and looked at his hands again. “I don’t know. I felt it coming, and then I felt the heat against my arms and hands… then it was over. It just… disappeared.”
Shaken to the core, Cal stared, disbelieving. What he had just seen was patently impossible; yet, it had happened. By all appearances, Alex had just neutralized his most powerful blast. No one had ever done that. Cal didn’t even know that it could be done. He had never heard of it ever being done before.
Alex turned and looked at Cal, then without a word or a moment’s hesitation, he threw a blast back at him. Cal put his hands up to deflect it, as he had done so easily before. But this blast was something different. It lifted Cal off the ground and threw him backwards twenty feet. He landed hard.
Liz looked at Alex, her eyes wide… “Alex?”
Alex looked at his hands again. “I don’t think it disappeared, Liz… I think I absorbed it somehow. It energized me.”
Liz smiled and looked at Max, and Max nodded then looked at Michael. Michael grinned back and looked at Tess and Kyle. They all had a sense that this was a turning point. Their chances against Cal, which had always been a long shot, had just gotten dramatically better.
Cal knew it, too, and he was not about to let them take advantage of it. Without hesitation, he threw four masses of energy at Alex in rapid succession. They struck their target forcefully, but each seemed to be absorbed as soon as it touched his body. This time Alex knew that the energy Cal had released against him was not gone. He felt it surging in his body, and he knew what to do…
“Cal! I think you lost something!” Alex spread his hands apart rapidly, and as he did, an immense mass of energy grew between his hands. Cal knew it was coming and prepared for it as best he could…
Alex swung his hand down and back and then brought his arm forward, heaving the surging mass. It rolled and tumbled erratically along the ground, distorting and expanding as it went, incinerating sticks, tufts of grass… even rocks, which superheated and exploded in its path. Cal turned to run, but the mass of energy tumbling in his direction was bouncing back and forth erratically… and on top of that, it was still growing; already, it was too large to outrun with any certainty, and Cal knew that his shield was not going to stop this. He made a split-second calculation and lunged to the left, hoping that the erratic ball of energy would bounce the other way… It didn’t.
“Strike!” a very exuberant Alex yelled, as the odd crackling and popping phenomenon bounced directly into and rolled over the fleeing kidnapper, sending him crashing face down into the dirt with the power of half a dozen bolts of lightning. Everyone was cheering… even Kyle.
Michael wondered out loud if they had witnessed the end of Cal. He certainly looked dead enough. Max stared at the smoking carcass sprawled on the ground fifty yards away and started to nod. But as they watched, Cal rolled over, smoking and addled but still alive. He took one quick look at the friends gathered against him and did the one thing none of them expected; though in retrospect, they all knew that they should have. He concentrated for a very brief moment, and his body began to shift and change shape. Almost at the same time, the ground began to shake. As the friends struggled to stay on their feet, some clinging to each other for support, a chasm opened up between them and Cal, and thick black smoke began to pour out, obscuring everything on the side that Cal was on. When the smoke had cleared enough to see again, Cal was gone… and so was Isabel.

Disclaimer: Roswell and the characters in this story are not mine. Just Borrowing them.
Summary: Alex and Isabel never broke up in Season 1 and this story follows through to season 2. All the stuff happens, with the exception of Grant. I can’t really go into much more but as you read you will catch on…I hope!
A/N: I dedicate this to my friend and beta, without whom I couldn’t get thru each day, and Ella...you know why! Also I had a very special treat added to this part, Gerry wrote mostly all of the wonderful Sci-Fi, thanks Gerry I owe you big time! Kiss my ass Fred
Part 11
“Whitman! Get your cute ass up here!” Isabel yells in anger
‘Uh oh’ Alex thinks.
“Uh oh is right MISTER!” she yells as Alex comes up the hallway with a drink in his hand
“Iz… I was trying to hurry, here’s your drink,” he says trying to figure out what had happened since they got home for their friends house. They had barely made it in the door before Isabel was literally ripping his clothes from his body. Not that he was complaining, it was two hours later and she had seemed satisfied but then she had asked the question every man dreads.
“Well maybe if I wasn’t so FAT, I could have gotten the drink myself, ” she says while looking at him with disdain.
“Honey, I never said you were fat…remember I said the other day you were looking skinny?” Alex says as gently as possible
“Yes, you did but then when I asked you if my legs were looking a little heavy, you said it was good for me to put on weight” she replies, still angry
“I didn’t mean it that way and you know it. You look amazing and it doesn’t matter if you did put on weight or not, you’ll always be beautiful to me:” Alex says, trying to dig himself out of this hole he seems to have gotten in
“So you do think I’m fat!” she yells in horror.
Alex stands in the middle of the room looking her in shock. Not wanting to say any more, he moves over to get in the bed to comfort her.
“OH no you don’t!” she yells throwing a pillow at him “Go sleep on the couch, and don’t try to talk to me, I’m closing our connection until you learn you can’t call me fat!” she cries. Pulling the covers up and waving her hand she turns off the lights.
Alex stands in the room by the bed staring down at her, “Isabel,” he says softly, When he gets no answer, he tried to call her name thru his connection only to find that she had closed it.. He grabs the pillow and walks slowly downstairs. After he settles on the couch he lays awake trying to think what in the hell could be wrong with her…maybe this was an alien thing. After sometime, he drifts off to a light slumber still thinking about Isabel.
Hearing a sound Alex opens his eyes and looks around. He glances over at the clock on the wall, only to find that he had only been asleep for about 30 mins.
“Maybe I should check on her,” he says out loud. Deciding this was a good idea he gets up to walk quietly up the stairs.
‘Ok, that’s weird. The door is closed’ he thinks. He puts his hand on the doorknob and is hit with an intense flash, making him stumble back ‘what the hell!’ Rushing into the room Alex is horrified at what he sees, it looks as if a battle has taken place…and Isabel is nowhere in sight.
“Isabel!” Alex yells hoping he’s in some bad dream and she will come and fix this
Getting no answer he rushes to the window in just enough time to see a Limo and someone pushing a very upset Isabel into it. He forces himself not to jump out the window after her, he stops for a moment… to gather his thoughts. Grabbing the cell phone off the dresser he throws on pants, a shirt and shoes as he runs down the stairs and out the door. Dialing the cell phone he hears Michael pick up “Isabel…Cal…HURRY!!” He screams and then hangs up throwing the phone down he runs out the door.
“Isabel!” he yells as the limo starts to pull away.
‘ALEX!!!’ he hears in his mind
“ISABEL!! ISABEL!!!” Alex yells running with all his might to catch up to the speeding vehicle, as he runs out of breath and it turns the corner Alex trips in his haste, jumping back up he tries to run after it again, looking up he can’t see it anymore.
‘I LOVE YOU!’ he hears from Isabel in anguish and fear as he feels their connection open and close abruptly.
“NO!!! NO!! ISABEL!!” he screams as he falls again
Alex faintly hears the sound of a car pull up behind him and footsteps as he lays on his hands and knees on the ground, tears are streaming down his face. The anger building up in him is like nothing Alex has ever felt before, his hands begin to glow and the ground begins to shake. He hears Maria and Tess gasp as the windows in all the cars on the street burst sending glass flying all around him.
“Alex” he hears Liz say softly
“She’s so scared Liz, I only felt her for a second but she’s so sacred…” he trails off putting his head down. Liz fights tears as she looks back at Max and Michael, both of them still shocked at what Alex had done. Michael breaking out of his shock first, walks up to Alex and scoops down to pick him up. Realizing Alex is not a gangly little boy anymore he decides rather then setting him on his own two feet he would carry him.
“We’ll get her back, I promise you….” trying not to choke up Michael whispers to Alex as he breaks down in Michael’s arms. Everyone was quiet as they walked back to the house, Michael carrying Alex the whole way.
After Alex had cleaned up some they all sat in quiet letting it sink in, no one knowing what to say.
“I have a plan that may work but it’s going to take all of us… Cal can’t see me, not yet” Lonnie said hopeful, what she had witnessed between Alex having powers and what Michael had done for Alex she knew she had to help them no matter what…even if it meant her life.
Alex looks her in the eyes, trying not to be hurt looking at her, knowingly he nods his head “I’ll do anything to have her back safe and sound…anything.” Alex says looking over at Max, the meaning in his words very clear …he didn’t care if the entire world found out about them, he would get her back.
Max looks over at Michael, a quiet understanding passes between them. “Whatever it takes… we’ll do whatever it takes,” Max says. “ What’s your plan Lonnie?”
As they start to form a plan Michael gets up to get a drink, as he’s walking by he feels a hand rest on his arm, “ Thanks,” Alex says looking up at him.
“Welcome.” Michael answers back as he walks into the kitchen, stopping at the sink to gain control of his emotions Michael feels small arms wrap around him as he breaks down.
“We will get your sister back space boy” Maria says softly
Wiping his face he turns to take her in his arms, hugging her tightly. “We have to. When I pasted by Alex he touched me, he sent me what she was feeling Maria…I’ve never felt fear like that…we have to bring her back to us…” he said trailing off putting his face in her neck and holding back a sob. Maria caressed his back as he broke down; she had never seen them like this. Kyle wasn’t even cracking jokes, and he hadn’t let Tess move more then a foot away from him.

Can I just say that I detest Cal? Nasty little bastard. I was really surprised that Alex absorbed the blasts and they energized him, that was great. So he is going to be a formidable force to deal with once they find Isabel. Great part, sweetie, so nice to see you back.
