Blinded by Love (AU,M/L,TEEN) Pt 8b - 06/29/04 {WIP}

If i get a response I'll get the next part out as soon as possible, so leave feedback...any kind!!!
Title: Blind by Love
By: I love Orli
Rating: TEEN-ish
Couple: Max/Liz
Category: AU
Summary: Set in Roswell, in a private catholic school called St. Michaels (I know that St. Mikes is in Santa Fe, but I don't think there's one is Roswell). Max and Liz are best friends. Max is a hockey player and Liz is the head cheerleader. Michael and Liz are brother and sister. This starts near the end of the groups senior year.

Part One
Liz POV
“Go Max! Yeah! Woo-hoo!”
“Shut up Liz! He’s not even playing yet.” Michael, my brother, yelled at me. I stuck my tongue out at him and sat down.
“Max made me promise that I would cheer for him. So, I’m gonna take advantage of it.” I stood back up and started to chant, “Max. Max. Max. Max,” to see if maybe I could get a rhythm started, but the only thing I got was some funny looks. “Go Max!” was the last thing I screamed and then sat back down. I smiled proudly at my friends and saw their faces.
“What??”
Max POV
‘Oh, for the love of God would she stop with the cheering already?! I’m not even playing yet!’
I felt somebody smack me on the back and turned to see Sean Deluca (coughDIRTBAGcough) smirking at me.
“So, you and Parker finally hooked up? ‘Bout time, man. The whole fucking school watches you two like a damn soap opera!”
“Deluca!” coach screamed. “You cuss like that one more time and I’m gonna cut you a new asshole!”
“Sorry, coach.”
I shook my head at him, “Sean, Liz and I aren’t together. She’s my best friend, that would be wrong.”
“Evans, what are you, stupid? Look at her, man, she’s a fu- I mean a beauty queen.” Sean said as he picked a glance at coach.
I looked up into the crowd and saw Liz standing up all by herself, trying to start a wave. All the sudden Maria tugged her down into her seat and pointed down towards me. Liz looked up and, I swear, the world stopped spinning. I guess I never really realized how gorgeous she was. I mean, I know she’s the head cheerleader and REALLY popular but I guess it never really hit me. I saw her wave to me and blow me a kiss. Why was I being affected like this? Liz is my best friend, shouldn’t feelings like this be against the law or something?
“Evans? EVANS!!”
I looked up to see coach standing over me.
“You’re going in,” He looked up at Liz. “Flirt with your girlfriend on your own time. Now go win us a game!”
That was the best game I ever played.
Liz POV
“Liz, sit your pretty ass down already!”
“But, Maria, I’m trying to start a wave!” I whined.
“Listen, chica, it’s never gonna happen, just give it up already!” Maria argued and pulled me into my chair. “Besides, Max is looking up here.” And she pointed to him. I waved and blew him a kiss. I don’t know what possessed me to do that. It’s like, lately, I’ve been having these really weird feelings for him. Like something more than friends. I don’t know it’s hard to explain.
I saw him skate out into the ice and starting clapping. I love watching him skate. He’s like this beautiful angel, so graceful and so sexy. WHOA!! See what I mean?? These things come out and I don’t even realize!
He went after the puck, stealing it from the other team and scored.
“YEAH MAX!” I screamed. He looked up at me, took of him helmet and blew me a kiss.
Oh, crap!! I think I’m falling in love with my best friend!

Part Two
Liz POV
“Jeez, it’s cold out here!”
“Oh, shut up Maria! Max should be out here soon.” I stuttered to Maria. It really was cold though.
“Speaking of Max, what was with all the flirting between you two, huh?” Maria said to me, winking and nudging me. I could totally feel myself blushing. Damn it!
“Nothing. And we weren’t flirting, Maria.” Of course I was lying through my teeth.
Maria gave me a look that said she was not going to believe me. “Sure Liz, whatever.” What is up with that freaky grin she has going on?
“AHHH!!!” I suddenly felt myself being lifted up. I turned around and saw Max smiled at me. “Max!” ~SMACK! ~ “You scared the crap out of me!” He put me back on the ground and linked arms with me.
“You played a great game, Max,” I said as we started walking off.
“Yeah, and I bet I know why.” Stupid Maria, she just had to open her big fat mouth.
“Yeah, coach practically said he would castrate me if we didn’t win, so I think that had something to do with it.” Ouch, could that have hurt anymore?
Maria nodded and looked at him like she wasn’t sure she completely believed him. “Riiiiiiiight.”
“So, girls, what are we all doing tonight?”
I shrugged, “Whatever’s fine with me. I don’t have a curfew tonight, as long as I check in with my parents.”
“ Michael and I have a date, so I think we’re going to pass on doing something. But, that doesn’t mean you two can’t go have fun without us.” Maria said, pinching my side. I took a slight step to the side and crunched her toes with my boots.
“OW! Shit, Liz, what was that for?”
“Why, Maria, whatever are you talking about?” I smiled. I turned back to Max who looked like he was enjoying the arguing between Maria and I.
“So, what do you want to do, I’m up for anything.” Max said.
“Yeah, I bet you are.” Maria whispered softly.
“Maria, you can go find Michael now. Bye-bye!” I pushed her away from us before she did anything else. I looked at Max, “So any ideas to what you want to do?”
“Actually, yeah.”
Max POV
“Max, I can’t believe you are making me do this.” Such a whiner!
“C’mon Liz! I think it’s only fair since you get to watch me skate all the time. Just one routine, please???”
She rolled her eyes and gave me that beautiful smile, “Okay, but this is the last time we do this, ok? Let me go change really quick.”
While she’s changing, I walk around looking at the Gymnastics Studio, all the equipment. Liz has been doing Gymnastics since she was 4 and she’s in one of the top groups now, ranked in top 10 nationally. Because of all this, the owner of the studio thought it would be best to give Liz her own set of keys. She thought it would be easier for Liz to practice without all the other people around.
“Okay, I’m ready. What routine do you want to see?” She asked as she walked out of the changing rooms pulling her hair up into a ponytail. She looked so sexy, with that leotard on, her firm legs…STOP STARING MAXWELL!!!
“Ummm…. I guess the uneven bars. That’s definitely my favorite.”
“Okay, let me just get my guards on and set up the bars.” I sat down on one of the beams, just watching her. She’s just so…. Liz. I mean there’s nothing to describe her really. She’s beautiful, smart, athletic…and my best friend. I know that I want something more than friendship with her, but what if she didn’t want something like that? It could totally ruin our friendship and I can’t risk that.
“Max…Max…Maxie-poo.”
“Don’t call me Maxie-poo, how many times have I told you that I get nightmares of Tess.” (She’s my stalker). Of course, Liz thinks that it’s hilarious that Tess stalks me, so she started laughing.
“Yeah, yeah, all right, get on with the routine already.” She giggled one last time and walked over to the bars and started her routine. She did all sorts of things, giants, turns, and flips. She looks like such an angel. She finished off her routine with a back flip onto the mat and looked at me.
“How was that? Did I do all right?” I couldn’t even answer; I mean how could I tell her that she looked beautiful? The only I could think of to do was kiss her….so that’s what I did.
Liz POV
Max wanted to go to my dance studio and see some of my Gym stuff. I’ve had a key since I was 15, so I was able to let us both in. For some reason he really loves watching me perform my routines, I guess it’s kinda like how I love watching him skate. I changed into my leotard and walked back out.
“Okay, I’m ready. What routine do you want to see?”
The uneven bars, of course the thing that I have the most troubles with, why does that one have to be his favorite!?! “Okay, let me just get my guards on and set up the bars.” As I walked away I could feel him staring at me. Not like a usual friend stare but a hot, heated kind of look. It was really weird. Nice, but weird.
I started up with my routine and tried to blank out my mind, that helps me sometimes, but all I could think of was him. Maybe that’s why this was the first time I’ve ever been able to land my final flip.
“How was that? Did I do all right?” I was standing there, waiting for an answer, I really needed to know how it was, it’s supposed to be my routine for regionals. The next thing I know…he was kissing me, and I was kissing him back.

Part 3 04-08-04
Part 3
Liz POV
“Parker!”
Max and I jump away from each other, suddenly, when we hear my name being called. I look up at him to see him breathless, sexy and totally confused about what just happened. I look over to where the voice came from and see my gymnastics coach.
“Ms. Parker, do you mind separating yourself from him and coming over here, please?” I look over at Max and smile.
“I’ll be right back.” I whisper. He nods, runs his hand through his hair and lets out a shaky breath, along with a small smile.
I walk over to my coach, hoping that I don’t get reamed for letting someone else in here.
“Hey coach, I know I’m not supposed to let other people in here, but Max just wanted to see my bars routine and then we were gonna leave right after that, I promise-“
Coach holds her hand up, signaling me to stop.
“Listen, Parker, I’m not gonna yell at you for letting Max in here, even though it’s not allowed. What I am going to yell at you for is finally perfecting that back flip, I haven’t seen you perform like that for a while. What made you perform like that? Or should I say who made you perform like that?” She says, nodding her head over to Max and quickly looks away as I turn around. I can see a slight blush on his face. What is going on with us?
“Liz.” I look back over at Coach. “You know I don’t exactly support ‘male interaction’ for the team because I feel that it interferes with your work, but obviously I was work about that.”
“What do you mean?” I look at her questioningly. She gives me a sly smile.
“Liz, you have never performed like that before, put your whole heart into a routine before, and suddenly this boy is here watching you and you stick everything. I suggest keeping him around for a while.” I look over at Max and smile. I’m so confused about….everything.
“Maybe you should go change and then it’s time for you two to leave.” I nod and tell her that I’ll see her at practice. I walk over to Max and he looks up startled, like he didn’t see me walking up to him.
“I’m gonna go change, and then we can leave, ok?” I say softly to him. He nods.
A few minutes later we’re walking out to his car.
“Did you get in trouble?” Max asks, being the first one to break the silence.
“For what?” I ask. I swear, I can be so dense sometimes.
“For… you know… us getting caught doing…that.” He says with a slight blush growing up his face.
“Oh…ummmm..no. I didn’t.” I say, looking wherever I can but him.
“Ok…good… that’s great.”
“Yeah.”
Max POV
“Well, here we are.” I say to her as we pull up in front of her house.
“Yep, this would be my house.”
I look over at her and wonder if she’s thinking about the same thing as me.
“Listen, Liz, about what happened over at the gym-“ I start.
“Max, don’t even worry about it. It was a mistake, you know? I’ve totally forgotten about it.” She says, smiling at me.
“Oh…well, me too.” Yeah right! Like I could forget about that.
“So, I’m gonna go, and I’ll see you tomorrow, at school.”
“Yeah, okay. What time do you want me to pick you up tomorrow morning?” I always drive her to school.
“Oh, well, I was gonna hitch a ride with Maria, but thanks anyway! See you tomorrow.” She says as she hops out of the car and walks off.
“Yeah, ok…bye!”
Liz POV
Ring, Ring
“Hello?”
“Maria?”
“Liz! What’s up chica?”
“Not much,” I reply. “Do you think I could get a ride to school tomorrow?”
“Yeah, sure, babe. But, what about going with Max? Doesn’t he always take you to school?”
“Oh…yeah, but I decided that I wanted to go in with you tomorrow. You know, girl time or whatever.” I stumble out.
“Riiiiiiiight…well, I’ll be there around 7:30, sounds good?” I can tell she doesn’t believe me and I know I’ll be in trouble tomorrow.
“Yeah, thanks ‘Ria. See you tomorrow.” I say and hang up.
God, I’m so confused about what happened tonight. I mean, I was right, right? That it was a mistake? I mean, Max is just my best friend, and, yes, I find him extremely attractive, but who wouldn’t? It was just a mistake, and I know he’s forgotten about already. I just hope that I do and soon, because I have a feeling if I don’t something big is gonna change.
Feedback please!

Part Four
Liz POV
“Morning, chica.”
“Yeah, morning, Maria.” I hate mornings. I don’t understand why school doesn’t begin at 12:00. Wouldn’t that make so much more sense? I think so.
“Okay, what’s up with you, girl?” Maria says, looking over at me. I give her a small smile.
“Nothing, Maria, what are you talking about?”
“Don’t go lying to me, Liz. You look like you didn’t get any sleep at all last night. What’s up?”
“It’s….nothing….really, Maria. Just that MaxandIkissedlastnight.” I spit out real fast.
“Oh, ok.”
I stare at her amazed that she didn’t go crazy…that is until she slams on the brakes in the middle of an intersection.
“Maria! What are you doing? Go!”
“You and Max kissed?! What like a peck on the cheek?” She asks as she continues driving.
I shake my head.
“No? more than that?” She asks.
I bite my lip and nod.
“Well, like what, Liz? Like just lightly on the mouth or like…” Maria says as she meshes her two hands together and makes slurping noises.
She looks over at me and sees me blushing.
“What?!?! Liz, how did this happen?”
I shrug. “I don’t know! I mean we were at the gym because he wanted to see one of my routines, so I did one for him and the next thing I know…we’re kissing!”
“Well, you know all I can say is about time!”
I look over at her, surprised.
“What? Maria, this is Max…my best friend. And it wasn’t anything, I mean, it was nothing at all, just a mistake, a major mistake on both our parts. And really, it was nothing, and-“
“Liz, you keep saying that it was nothing…but if it was nothing, why do you keep obsessing about it?”
Max POV
“Izzy!! Come on, we’re gonna be late for school.” I yell at her, whenever she goes to school with me we’re always late.
“Keep your panties on! I’m coming!”
Finally, we leave around 7:40 am, 20 minutes before school starts. I really hate rushing.
“Aren’t we picking up Liz?” Isabel asks as we get into the jeep.
“Why would we pick up Liz? I mean, it’s not like I take her to school everyday or something. So she decided to go with Maria, there’s nothing wrong with that. Liz and I don’t have to do everything together, ok?”
“Alright…damn! Did something happen between you and Liz?”
“No! Nothing happened. It was just a kiss, nothing else. It didn’t even mean anything. I mean, it’s not like the kiss meant anything, it was just a kiss, a friendly kiss…yeah…that’s what it was, just a friendly-“
“Whoa, whoa, whoa! Max. I just meant did you guys get in a fight. But you two kissed?! Finally! We’ve all been waiting for you two to get together.”
“What are you talking about?” I look over at her as we pull into school.
“Like you don’t know! You two flirt like there’s no tomorrow! You could cut the sexual tension between you two with a knife!” She says, rolling her eyes.
“Isabel, you don’t know what you’re talking about. We’re just good friends, nothing else.”
“If that’s true, then why are you making such a big deal about this?” And with that she leaves me sitting in the car as she runs up to Liz and Maria. If only I knew what Liz was thinking. Was she making as big a deal as I am? Probably not. She probably doesn’t even care, I mean, she’s the one who said it was a mistake. And it was.

Part Four
Liz POV
“Morning, chica.”
“Yeah, morning, Maria.” I hate mornings. I don’t understand why school doesn’t begin at 12:00. Wouldn’t that make so much more sense? I think so.
“Okay, what’s up with you, girl?” Maria says, looking over at me. I give her a small smile.
“Nothing, Maria, what are you talking about?”
“Don’t go lying to me, Liz. You look like you didn’t get any sleep at all last night. What’s up?”
“It’s….nothing….really, Maria. Just that MaxandIkissedlastnight.” I spit out real fast.

Part Five March 14, 2004
I just want to say sorry for the delay and welcome to snoopie13. Thanks for the feedback!!
Part Five
Liz POV
So, now I’m standing here, outside the school with Maria, waiting for Isabel. And well, Max too, I guess.
“So…Liz, where’s your brother?” Maria asks as we’re waiting out front.
“Oh, I dunno. I think he got a ride with Alex this morning.” I act like it’s no big deal that she asked, even though I know Maria is secretly in love with my brother. Talk about bad taste.
“Oh really? That’s cool.” She says, shrugging it off.
“Come on, Maria, just admit that you like Michael.”
She looks at me, shocked.
“What?” I say. “Surprised that I figured out your secret?”
“Elizabeth Parker! I can’t even believe that you would think that I like your brother… I mean…he’s so dirty, and un-cultured…and dirty…and- Ooh! Look, there’s Isabel.” And she takes off towards Isabel, I just shake my head, laughing. If only Maria knew that Michael liked her as much as she likes him.
“Hey Izzy.” I say as I walk up to her and Max. I can see him looking anywhere but me, and it stings me a little. “Hey Max.”
“Liz.” He says curtly. Why is he being like this? I can feel tears pricking my eyes at his sharpness.
I point towards the school, “I’m just gonna go to my locker, I’ll see you guys later.” As I start walking towards the school, picking up my pace as I get closer.
Max POV
God! I’m an ass! I don’t understand why I was being such a jerk to her. I mean, it’s not like it’s her fault that I basically attacked her last night at the Gym.
As soon as Liz is out of sight I feel someone smack me on the head, hard.
“Damn Isabel!! What was that for?” I yell, even though I know exactly why she hit me.
“What the hell is the matter with you? There was no need for you to be a complete ass to her.” Isabel yells back.
“Look, Isabel, back off, ok? I need to figure some things out, without you smacking me around.”
“Max…” Maria starts. “What is going on with you and Liz? She told about what happened last night and she says it was nothing, but it wasn’t…was it?” I just stare at her. I can’t believe she’s already figured me out. “I need to go.” I mutter as I walk away.
Liz POV
I’m practically running through the hallway now with tears running down my face. I’m trying to make my way into the bathroom when I run into someone.
“I’m really sorry, I didn’t mean to run into you.”
“Hey, sis, it’s no prob at all.” I hear Michael say.
“Hey Mike, sorry, I wasn’t looking where I was going.” I say as I look up at him. I see him tense as he sees my face.
“What’s wrong?” He says.
“Nothing, I’m just not having a good day.”
“Liz. Don’t lie to me, I know something’s wrong and I want to know what it is.” He says, briskly.
“Maybe it’s none of your business, Michael. Have you ever thought of that?” I say at him, pushing him away.
“Fine, than I’ll go get Max and you can talk to him.”
“No!” I say quickly, and then wince as I realize my mistake.
“Why?” Michael says, looking at me suspiciously. “Did Max do something to you?”
I shake my head, even though I can feel the tears coming down faster.
“Where is he?” He exclaims, looking through the crowd of students.
“Michael…don’t.”
“Oh…don’t worry, I won’t do anything he doesn’t deserve.” And with that he takes off down the hallway, with a look of determination on his face.
“Michael! Michael, no!” It’s no use, he’s not gonna let go until he finds out what’s going on.
Max POV
I’m standing in the bathroom with my forehead against the wall, thinking about what I need to do. Should I just continue with the friendship that Liz and I have? Should I try to pursue more? Should I-
All the sudden I feel myself thrown against the wall, hard.
“What the hell did you do to my sister?!”

Here's part 6, it's not very long, i'm sorry. But I also have parts 7 and 8a written so if you all leave feedback I might just post another part tomorrow. So please please please leave feedback!!
Part 6
Max POV
“Michael! What the hell?!” I scream at him, as my face is smashed into the wall. He pushes me a little harder.
“I want to know hat you did to Liz? She’s all crying and won’t tell me what’s wrong, so I suggested to get you and she went crazy, didn’t want to talk to you. So…I wanna know what’s going on!”
Shit…I made Liz cry! I’m such an ass!
I rake my hand through my hair, “Look, Mike, I understand that you wanna help, but I think Liz and I should just work it out ourselves.”
“Does this have anything to do with the fact that you’re in love with my sister?” Michael asks.
I just stare at him, shocked. He smirks at me. “I’m not blind, dude, I see the way you look at her, we all do. Everybody knows.”
“Even Liz?” He shakes his head. “No, Liz doesn’t know. But, if it’s any consolation…she looks at you the same way.” He slaps me on the back and turns to leave. “Oh, and dude…if you hurt my sister…I’ll kill you.”
Liz POV
I’m standing outside my biology room, trying to calm myself down enough to actually walk into the room.
Breath in…Breath out…Breath in…Breath-
“Are you going in, or are you going to stand out here for the whole period?” someones says in my ear.
“Max!” I say as I turn around. “I didn’t hear you walk up.” I try to catch the breath he scared out of me. I stand there, looking anywhere but him.
“Well…” He scratches his eyebrow and clears his throat. “Class?” He points to the room.
“Oh…uh, yeah…right, class.” God, I sound like such an idiot.
We go through the lab for biology class. The bell rings, signifying the end of the period. I try to shove everything into my backpack and leave before anything else ackward happens between Max and I. I’m almost free of the class when I feel a hand grab me and pull me back. I look up at the face holding me back. And who would it be…other than Max?
“I’ll walk you to class.”
I nod at him. We start walking with an ackward silence lingering in the air.
“Listen, Liz, about last night-“
“Don’t worry about it Max…really.” He grabs hold of my hand and pulls me closer, so close my body is flushed up against his. He looks down into my eyes.
“But I am worrying about it. And you won’t let me explain.” He reaches into his back pocket and pulls out a folded piece of paper. “Here, you won’t let me talk so please just read this…please?”
I take it from him and nod. Having his body this close to me is wrecking havoc on my communication skills.
“Yeah, ok Max. I’ll read it.”
“Ok.” He throws me a weak smile. “Laters.” He waves as he walks off to his class.
“Yeah…later.”

Part 7
Liz POV
I really don’t know if I should read the not. I mean I know I should, but do I really want to? I look around my classroom, nobody’s paying any attention to me and Michael isn’t here yet (it’s the only class we share). I open the note, slowly. My hands are shaking so bad I couldn’t read anything. I take a deep breath and concentrate.
Dear Liz it started out, in Max’s neat cursive.
I meant to talk to you, this morning, about last night, but I
chickened out.
I look up from the letter, looking around for Michael. Where the hell is he? I look back to the letter.
Last night was-
“Hey sis, whatca reading?”
“God!” I breathe in deeply. “What is up with everybody sneaking up on me today? Where were you? Did you just suddenly realize that we have class?”
“No, no.” He says, shaking his head and he takes his seat in front of me. “I was…talking to Maria.” I roll my eyes at him. He points to the letter. “What’s that?”
“Oh…it’s just a letter.”
“Oh yeah? From who?”
“Oh…um, well, Max.” I see a smile break out on his face.
“Max, huh? I heard about last night.” I groan, loudly. “So, is he like, declaring his undying love for you?” He says as he pretends to swoon. I look at him with complete shock in my eyes.
“Michael, Max is sooooo not in love with me.”
“Lizzie, Lizzie, Lizzie…Max has been in love with since you guys met, even if he’s only realizing it now. Believe your big brother, I know.”
“Michael, you are insane, Max is not in love with me, he’s my best friend and you’re not my big brother, we’re twins and if I’m not mistaken…I came out first.”
“Liz, sweetie, have you ever noticed how Max hasn’t dated anyone? And he’s probably the most sought after guy in this school, after me of course.” I laugh at that. Who does he think he is, Don Juan?
“Whatever Mikey, you keep telling yourself that.” I say as I ruffle up his hair.
“Dude, Liz…don’t mess with the hair.”
Max POV
I’m sitting here, and I don’t think I’ve ever been this nervous. What if she doesn’t read it?
“Hey Max, are you okay?” I look up and see Maria. “You look a little jumpy and you’re all sweaty.”
“No, I’m fine.” Except that my whole body is shaking. I wipe my face and try to calm down a little.
“Okay…sure…so I heard about last night.” She smiles as my eyes widen.
“I don’t have any idea what you’re talk about Maria.”
“Sure, so you don’t know anything about you and Liz making out, in the gym last night…while she was half-nekkid!” Maria screeches. I groan as everybody in class turns to stare at us.
“Evans! You finally took my advice and took Liz for yourself. So tell me, how was it?” Sean says, patting me on the back.
“Shut up DeLuca!” I say as I push his hand off of me. What a jerk-hole.
“Sorry Max, I didn’t mean to yell it out like that.”
“Yeah, whatever Maria.” I say as I try to hide from all the prying eyes.
“But seriously Max, what were you thinking, groping a half-naked Liz in the middle of the gym?!”
“Geez Maria! I didn’t grope Liz, it was just a kiss-“
“Yeah, uh-huh, a kiss.”
I kept talking as if I didn’t hear a thing she said. “-and she was half-naked…she was wearing a leotard.” I say, whispering the last part.
“Whatever you say, Maxie. Oh! Listen, can you take Liz home today? Michael and I are supposed to get together. Great, thanks!” Maria says before sitting in her seat and turning towards the teacher.
Crap.
Liz POV
Class is almost over and all I’ve been able to think about is the letter. Next period is my study hall, so I’ll read it then. I pack up my bag as the bell rings and head for class. Michael catches me before I can leave though.
“Lizzie, can you catch a ride with Max after school today? I’m going with Maria and-“
“Yeah, yeah, please don’t describe, we all know what you guys do together.” Total eww-ness.
“Thanks sis. Anyway, I have a feeling you and lover boy need to talk. I shove him as he winks at me. Jerk. I wave bye at him and walk into my study hall room. I decide to sit in the back and open the note.

“But seriously Max, what were you thinking, groping a half-naked Liz in the middle of the gym?!”
“Geez Maria! I didn’t grope Liz, it was just a kiss-“
“Yeah, uh-huh, a kiss.”
I kept talking as if I didn’t hear a thing she said. “-and she was half-naked…she was wearing a leotard.” I say, whispering the last part.
“Whatever you say, Maxie. Oh! Listen, can you take Liz home today? Michael and I are supposed to get together. Great, thanks!” Maria says before sitting in her seat and turning towards the teacher.
Crap.
Liz POV
Class is almost over and all I’ve been able to think about is the letter. Next period is my study hall, so I’ll read it then. I pack up my bag as the bell rings and head for class. Michael catches me before I can leave though.
“Lizzie, can you catch a ride with Max after school today? I’m going with Maria and-“
“Yeah, yeah, please don’t describe, we all know what you guys do together.” Total eww-ness.
“Thanks sis. Anyway, I have a feeling you and lover boy need to talk. I shove him as he winks at me. Jerk. I wave bye at him and walk into my study hall room. I decide to sit in the back and open the note.
Dear Liz,

I really appreciate all the feedback and decided to post the next part today. It's only part 8a, so hopefully I should have 8b up soon! It's short, I'm sorry, but I will get the next part to you soon!! I promise. Oh, and there's a line in the letter that's from "Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!", I saw the movie last night and just couldn't help myself, the line was too cute!
Part 8a
Liz POV
Dear Liz,
I meant to talk to you, this morning, about last night but I chickened out. Last night was our first kiss, and personally, I don’t want it to be our last. I really hope that what I say doesn’t scare you off, but do you think it is possible to love someone your entire life and never realize it? I’ve been in love with you for as long as I can remember, but I’ve only just figured it out. That sounds dumb, I know, and, of course, it was your brother and the kiss from last night that helped me realize. I’ve been so dumb, I can’t believe I didn’t realize it. I mean, I always wanted to be with you, I only feel comfortable and complete around you. And now that I think about it I think everybody’s been rooting for us to get together! I really want to two of us to be together, and I have a feeling that you might feel the same.
Please Liz, give us a chance, I know we would be good together, I feel it in my heart.
Yours, always and forever,
Max Evans

Part 8b
Thanks for the bumps guys!!!! Sorry it took me so long.
Part 8b
Liz POV
Oh.
My.
God.
"Liz?"
OH MY GOD!
"Lizzie?"
I look up to see Michael, standing impatiently by my desk. "Liz, class is already over and I don't wanna be late for lunch."
"Wait, wait. What do you mean class is over?" How did that happen???
"Well, you've just been sitting there for 20 minutes. You were reading your note and then you just kinda spaced out for the last 20 minutes of class. I even threw things at you to see if you would notice." Michael said as he shoved me towards the door.
"Wait, Mike...I have to...go to my locker."
"What? Liz, you never have to go to you locker after study hall."
"Well, there's some things I need to get, or put...away or something like that." I really just don't want to go to lunch and have to face Max. I really need to think things over.
"Well forget it, I'm hungry and we're going to lunch. Hey. Look there's Max!"
I look up into his amber eyes and everything fades away. And the next thing I know I'm being thrown towards him.
"Here buddy. Take Lizzie to her locker. I'm gonna go find Maria."
Bastard Michael. And now here I am, avoiding having to look at Max.
"Hey Max, how's it going?"
"Alright, you?"
"Ohhh...you know. I'm great, just wonderful actually, everything's great, school's great, cheerleading's great, work's great, I'm just-"
"Great?" Max finished for me.
"Yeah." Now I feel like an idiot. Great.
"Listen, can we go talk somewhere?" I look up at him and nod. "Yeah, I think that would be a good idea."
