Disclaimer: I don’t own Roswell or The Vampire Diaries.
Couples: Liz/Elijah, Jesse/Isabel, Kyle/Rebecca
Author’s Note: So I’m going to change a few things. I always thought that Jesse and Liz were a lot alike. Both super smart, both weren’t appreciated enough, both were taken for granted by the aliens. So in this fic I’m going to make them cousins.
*Set after ep ‘Who Died And Made You King’ in season 3 of Roswell. Set after season 4 of TVD. Klaus did leave, but not for a baby. He never slept with Haley.
Parker Family Tree
Jeff Parker had a older brother named Josh Parker. Who is Jesse’s dad. (You’ll find out later how he really died.)
Jeff Parker married Nancy Gilbert (Yes from that family. She is Elena and Jeremy’s aunt)
Part 1
Both Maria and Liz sat on the grass in the park. “What are you going to do about Max?” Maria asked her. Liz looked at the ducks in the pond. “I don’t know. I love him. My life for the past three years have been nothing, but about him. I think I just need some space. I need to put myself first for once.”
Maria smiled at her best friend “I think it’s about time that you did. You gave up a lot for him. Then for him to sleep with that tramp. You forgave him. He still acted like a jerk!” Liz looked at her. “See you get it!” “What are we going to do about Kyle?” Maria asked. “I think we need to start bringing him more into our group. I don’t think we were as nice to him as we could be. He is one of the few fellow humans in our group that knows about the aliens.” Liz told her. “Now your cousin knows.” Maria reminded her.
Jesse still wasn’t handling it very well. There was a lot of nights he would come over and crash on the sofa down stairs. He told her that he was having nightmares about the aliens. She told him that both Maria and Kyle still have them. She just has the ones where she blasts Tess. She remembered that her grandma used to say that dreams try to work out what we can’t do in real life.
Which would explain her’s. She couldn’t blast Tess. She was on another planet. She wanted to so badly! She never told anyone before. Not even Maria.
“How about tonight?” Liz asked Maria. “We could have it over at my house. My mom is still at that work thing.” Maria told her.
-----------------------------------------------------
Maria was still mad at Michael for pushing her out of the car. She had hoped that he would call her to tell her that he was sorry, but he hadn’t. Which was starting to piss her off even more.
Like Liz she was starting to get fed up with the aliens. She didn’t know how much she could handle anymore. Which is why she needed this alien free night. Just the humans.
She started getting out the cups and snacks. Liz told her that she was going to go pick up Kyle and head here. She wanted to make sure she had everything before they got here. It was nice to get to do this again. Her and Liz hadn’t done this in years. They stopped once Max, Michael and Isabel came into their lives. Their lives then revolved around them. They stopped doing the normal things. She missed that. She missed not having to worry so much.
Maria looked up when she heard them come in. She gave Liz a key last summer. She was scared if something happened no one could get in. “Thanks for in the invite. I don’t think I ever had a night like hanging out with friends like this before.” Kyle said when he saw her. “Really?” Both girls asked him. “The guys only wanted to play video games. We never really talked. “ Kyle told them. “Can’t say I’m shocked.” Liz said as she put down two things of soda. “I brought some orange soda for remembering Alex…” Liz said to Maria with a sad smile. Maria pulled her into a hug.
That was another thing they never really talked about. They stopped talking about Alex. Maria thought maybe they stopped talking about Alex, because they blamed the aliens. They didn’t want to admit it. She knew that Liz did. Liz told her on Alex’s birthday. That she blames them for not trusting her more. That she felt she did enough for the aliens to trust her. When instead they took Tess’s side. A traitor who came into town and mindwarped them from the start.
“Let’s sit down on the sofa.” Liz said to them. They followed her in there. “I ordered two large pizzas.” Maria said as she sat on the sofa and pulled out a throw blanket. Kyle looked at her shocked. “Liz and I can eat! If you want to be part of our club you have to understand that.” Maria told him. Kyle smiled “Good! Now I know that I won’t be eating just ‘salads’ in this club.” Liz laughed.
“So what are we watching?” Kyle asked. “We do tv marathons. So we’re going to watch Arrow first.” Maria told him and then looked around. “You did bring stuff to sleep in right?” “I did. When I told my dad what I was doing he seemed happy. I guess he is happy that I get to get away from the alien drama. He knows that you two used to do this with Alex.” He said. “You should have seen his face when I went to go pick him up. He was smiling. “ Liz said as she took out another throw blanket.
They all looked up when they heard the doorbell ring. Maria got up. She opened the door and gave the guy a tip in cash. She already paid for it online. She took the pizzas and told him thank you. She closed the door. She put the two pizzas out on the coffee table. Which now had three cups and some candy on it. Liz got up and went to go in the kitchen. She came back with paper towels, some cheese, hot sauce and a bottle of ranch. “You two do this a lot don’t you?” Kyle asked them in aww.
Both girls laughed. “We used to do this every Friday and all weekend. It used to help us relax after dealing with school all week.” Maria said as she went to go back to sitting down, They all took a piece of pizza and started eating.
A hour into the movie and Liz’s phone started ringing. It was Max. She didn’t want to deal with him. So she turned it off. Then Maria’s and Kyle’s. So they turned theirs off too. “You know we need a place where they can’t find us….” Maria said out loud. “I do know a place. My grandma Claudia has a house about a hour away. Jesse and I went there a few times as kids. My parents kept it. It’s in my name.” Liz told her. Maria smiled. She turned to Liz. “Can we go?!” She asked. “I don’t see why not. We can go in the morning.” Liz told her.
The rest of the night was spent with the three of them watching the show and laughing. Something they had forgotten how to do in years. The next day both Kyle and Liz went home to go pack. They had a few weeks off from school. Liz’s parents were happy to see her smiling again. They always liked Maria. They knew that Kyle looked out for her so they were ok with her going.
Kyle’s dad thought it was a good idea that he got to be a kid and not have to worry so much. So he told Kyle to go have fun. He was happy to see both Maria and Liz take him in. He saw what the girl went through when Alex was killed. They were happy they were trying to heal.
The three of them drove out of town. Liz took a back road. The house was hidden. It wasn’t on a highway. They drove past a lot of woods. A hour later they drove up to a gate. It had a box to the left. So Liz took out her key and unlocked it. The gate opened up and she drove in. It closed behind her. There was bushes along the gate so you couldn’t see in. Liz drove down the road. Both Maria and Kyle were in aww. There was a house to the left. Then another one down the road to the right.
She kept driving till she got to the mansion. “Is there something you want to tell me?” Maria asked her best friend. “What?” Liz asked. “How did I not know about this?!” Maria asked her. “ I sorta forgot.” Liz said as she got out of the car. Maria followed her out. “You forgot that you owned this?!” Maria yelled at her. “It’s been in the family for years. So I forgot.” Liz went for her bag. Kyle picked up his and a few of Maria’s. Maria picked up one of her’s and told Kyle thanks.
They walked up to the door and Liz opened it up. They walked into a foyer. They had dark wood floors. The walls were a cream color. “The living room is to the left and the other side of that is the kitchen. The stairs which leads to the bedrooms are to the right. There is a library, dining room, craft room and game room on the first floor. The pool is out the kitchen door. Which also has a hot tub. There is a tennis court out there too. There is also a pound with some ducks.” Liz said all of this like it was nothing. “How did you get this place?” Kyle asked. Liz looked at him.
“My dad told me that my great-great-great-great-great grandma invented something. Then got a lot of money. Since all of my family members are tight with their money. We still have the place.” She told him. “Why don’t we all go put our stuff up stairs.” Liz told them. They followed her up the wooden stairs. “Pick anyroom.” Liz told them as she picked the one to the right. It had always been her’s.
There was a queen size bed with white bedding on it. It had orange and yellow pillows on it. There were two white nightstands on either sides of it. There was two large windows to the left. A tv on one wall. Little touches of yellow and orange everywhere. There was a door to the bathroom. That had a tub and shower on one wall. A sink that was a clear blue. That had candles around it. There was a door that lead to the walk in closet. She put her bag inside of it. She walked into the bathroom. Which had a door that lead to a balcony.
She took a deep breath. She could smell the flowers that her grandma Claudia planted for her years ago. It made her feel close to her again.
------------------------------------------
Maria took the room to the left. It was like Liz’s, but it had more purple to it. The bathroom was even the same. In this one the sink was a pink color. She put her bags in the walk in closet. She took her phone and put in the nightstand. Her mother knew where she was and the number to the place thanks to Liz’s parents. She really didn’t want to hear from Michael. She didn’t want him to ruin her time here. She layed down on the bed. “I have to give it to them. This is one comfy bed!”
-------------------------------------------
Kyle took a room towards the back. He had a feeling that this was more a guy’s room. It had dark wood floors and the walls were a dark color. The room was set up like the girl’s. The sink was a red color. He looked around the room and noticed the name ‘Jeff’ written on the nightstand. So this must have been Liz’s dad room.
---------------------------------------------
Liz ran downstairs when she heard someone come in. She looked shocked when she saw it was Jesse. Who also looked shocked at her. “What are you doing here?!” They both asked. “I had to get away. I kept having nightmares about aliens.” He told her. “I’ve been having those for about three years.” She told him.
He put his bags by the door and went to go sit down in the living room. Which had a large fireplace that had a picture of a wolf. The floors were dark wood. There was a coffee table that was made out of wood that had claw marks on it. There was bear in the corner. That her dad had told her that her grandma Claudia had killed. Which she always thought was a joke.
Liz put her arms around him. He put his head on top of her’s.
---------------------------------------------
Later on that night they all heard Jesse screaming. They all jumped up and got out of their rooms. “What the hell is going on?” Maria asked. Liz went to open Jesse’s door and saw that his bones were breaking. They all looked scared. Liz went to try to help her cousin. “No.” he yelled at her. His eyes started to change to a red color. “Run” he yelled at them. He started to change into a wolf. The three of them ran down the stairs and into woods by the mansion. Jesse in wolf form ran after them. Liz went straight to a old door in the ground that her father always told her to stay out of. Kyle and Maria followed her. They noticed the chains on the brick walls. They ran into a room that had a gate. Liz locked it with the key that was hanging on the wall.
A few hours later Jesse found them. His wolf eyes were looking at them . His fangs were out. He started to run for the gate door. He hit himself on it and knocked himself out. When the sun came up he turned back into a human.
“I guess our lives will never be normal.” Maria said.
