Hey everyone, here is the next update, and I think most of you will like it. If you're lucky, you might get an update tomorrow. I really do need to update my other Roswell fics. I am just so into this one, ha. Anyways, leave feedback and enjoy.
Previously…
After Max looked at Liz in shock and horror that she had told him about Future Max, he felt relieved that she hadn’t slept with Kyle, but he was upset that she had told Ava and Maria before him. It was like his heart had been ripped out from his chest and he really didn’t like that she couldn’t trust him.
“Liz, you should have told me. I can’t believe you told Maria and Ava before… well, ME!”
“Max, I couldn’t. I didn’t want to ruin the future,” Liz sighed, as she looked at him, and she saw how upset he looked at her. “I didn’t even want to do this.”
“How could you even do this?” Max asked, as he crossed his arms over his chest, and he inhaled a deep breath, his eyes looking in her direction.
Liz’s bottom lip trembled, as she then watched Max leave the bedroom where tears all of a sudden began to wash down her bottom lip.

Minutes had turned to days and days turned into a few weeks later. Liz felt nauseous to her stomach and she had been throwing up for the last several days. Ava had been taking really good care of her, bringing her medicine, but nothing just seemed to be working. Liz was starting to wonder that her inhuman powers were making her really sick and she was starting to worry.
“Ava, what’s wrong with me?” Liz asked, as she pulled her knees to her chest, resting her head on top of her kneecaps. “I can’t even get a decent amount of sleep without rushing to the bathroom. Am I terminal?”
Quickly shaking her head, Ava pushed Liz’s head up, and she smiled at her. “Sweetie, I don’t think that you’re that far gone. There could be one other option but you might not like it.”
Liz was confused for a second until her eyes went so wide her heart might have busted through her chest. “No fucking hell! There is no way. We… We only did it once.”
“And it only takes one time,” Ava explained, as she looked over at Liz, and she sat down on the bed in front of her with a gentle smile. “At least that’s what I hear. If you are with child, Lizzie, I’ll be here. Everyone will be – even Max will be here for you and your child together.”
“I… I can’t be pregnant,” Liz sobbed, as tears began to flood down her cheeks, and she bit down on her bottom lip, her lip quivering slightly. “Ava, I just graduated high school, and I… I’m in college.”
“I know, sweetie, but if you are, Zan and I won’t leave you. Why don’t you get some rest, while I get a pregnancy test?” Ava suggests, as she slides out of the bed, and she places a kiss at the top of Liz’s head when she snuggled under the covers. “Feel better.”

Zan looked at Ava, worry running across his face, and he grabbed her hand when the lady handed them the paper bag with several pregnancy tests. He was scared for Liz and there was only one time he had been this scared. That had been when he thought he had lost the love of his life.
“Ava, sweetheart, how are you feeling?” Zan asked softly, as he looked over at her beautiful face, offering her a small smile, knowing that she was worrying about Liz just like he was. “I know that you are thinking about Liz, aren’t you, baby?”
“I’m worried. What if Liz is pregnant, and if she is, what if Max flips out on her again? I love Max, Zan, but he took it too far last time something big happened. I honestly don’t want him getting mad causes her stress,” Ava frowned, as they approached the car, and she sighed. “S-She’s like a sister to me. I can’t help but to be worried about Liz. She deserves so much happiness, Zan. What do I do?”
“I don’t really know,” Zan said with a sigh leaving his lips, as he pulled the car door open, watching her get in, and then shut her door where he then got in on the driver’s side of the car. “All we can really do is wait to find out if Liz is pregnant or not. Liz is really lucky to have you as her friend. Did you know that?”
Ava blushed, as Zan began to drive back to their place, and she could only worry for her very best friend. All she knew was she would give Max a piece of her mind if he dare try anything.

“So, what’s the verdict?” Ava asked, as she sat on Liz’s bed, while she watched her come out of her bathroom, holding the three pregnancy tests in her hand.
“I… I don’t know. I’m too scared to even look at the tests,” Liz admitted, as she crawled under the covers, and she held the tests to Ava. “C-Can you tell me, Ava?”
“Are you sure you want me to? This is big news,” Ava told her friend, as she watched her friend nod her head, and she placed the tests in her hand.
Ava looked over at Liz under the blanket with her head out and she sighed. Liz looked so tiny and all she wanted was for her friend to feel a lot better than what she was feeling. Ava then looked down at the pregnant test and then back to Liz.

“Hey Zan, where’s Liz?” Max asked, as he entered the kitchen where Zan had just sat down to eat his sandwich. “I haven’t seen her in a few days.”
“And I wonder why,” Zan mumbled under his breath, as he saw the glare that Max gave him, and he raised an eyebrow. “I think that you need to give Liz some privacy, Max.”
“What’s it to you?”
“Ava, that’s what. I don’t know what your problem is but Ava has been there for Liz when you basically shattered her heart,” Zan said seriously, as he ran his fingers through his hair, and he sighed. “I’m not trying to be mean, Max, but it’s the truth. Liz just… isn’t herself.”
“What do you mean by that? Is there something wrong with Liz that I should know?” Max asked, as he leaned against the door that led into the kitchen, and he crossed his arms over his chest. “And don’t you even dare try lying to me, Zan.”
Zan sighed, as he looked over at Max, and he rubbed across the nape of his neck. “She’ll be fine. Ever since you broke Liz’s heart, you lost that privilege of wondering what was going on.”
But it was too late! Max turned on his heel and headed for Liz’s door. When he opened the door, it was what not what he was expecting.
“Liz, you’re pregnant.”
Liz and Ava turned their attention to the door when they saw Max’s surprised look.

What Could Be (CC,M/L,MATURE) Part 1 - 8/29/09
I know I promised an update yesterday but I got a little busy. I am going to be updating my other Roswell hopefully tonight since I have two other Roswellian stories here. Anyways, I hope you all will read this chapter soon.

Previously…
Zan sighed, as he looked over at Max, and he rubbed across the nape of his neck. “She’ll be fine. Ever since you broke Liz’s heart, you lost that privilege of wondering what was going on.”
But it was too late! Max turned on his heel and headed for Liz’s door. When he opened the door, it was what not what he was expecting.
“Liz, you’re pregnant.”
Liz and Ava turned their attention to the door when they saw Max’s surprised look.
12
Max’s eyes were wide as flying saucers, as the three words kept on ringing in his head. Liz was pregnant and they were going to become parents. Was that why he hadn’t seen Liz in the last few days or something? Max wasn’t even sure what to do anymore. He had been frozen in his spot by Liz’s door for a full minute, not saying anything. Finally, he turned his attention to Ava and Liz.
“Ava, do you think you can give Liz and me a minute?”
Ava frowned but she watched Liz nod her head. “All right, fine, but if I hear any fighting, you better get out when I come in here.”
“I can do that, Ava,” Max answered, as he had to admit that Liz was thankful to have Ava, and he sighed when he watched Ava stand up.
Ava turned to Liz and she smiled, as she handed her the pregnancy sticks with the positive answers on them to show that she wasn’t lying. “Congratulations Lizzie! You’re going to be a Mommy.”
When Ava walked out of the room, she shut the door, while dragging Zan away from Liz’s bedroom door. Max looked over at Liz and he moved to sit at the edge of bed. He didn’t even know where to begin now that Ava was out of their sight. Never did he think that their one time of actually have sex would result to Liz being pregnant with his child, especially since they weren’t even a couple.
“Liz, I…”
“Max, I’m really sorry,” Liz began, as tears filled her eyes, and she wrapped her arms around herself as if she were to protect herself from harm’s way. “I’m sorry about the Future Max stuff and that I’m pregnant. You must think I’m the most horrible person ever, don’t you?”
“No Liz, that’s not it at all, and I don’t think you’re the most horrible person! I’ve been such a jerk to you,” Max sighed, as he looked over at Liz, and he moved a little closer, so that he was sitting next to her on the bed where he then grabbed her hand in his. “I shouldn’t have stormed out of here when I did. I just hope that you can forgive me, Liz. I just hope you’ll let me be there for you throughout your pregnancy.”
Just hearing him say those words made her heart skip a beat, as that’s all she wanted, and she nodded her head. “I would never be able to do this on my own even if Ava and Zan are willing to help me out. I need you, Max. I… I really need you to help me through this, please.”
Max pulled Liz close to him and he sighed, as he felt her fragile, small body against him, and he ran his hand over her back very gently. He needed to be strong but he felt like there was something else.
“Liz, there’s nothing else, is there?” Max asked, as he pulled back to look at her, and he ran a hand over the nape of his neck, while looking over at her.
“There’s one thing…”
Max raised an eyebrow, wondering what this one thing was, and he knew he needed to not be so judgmental. “What is it, Liz?”
Liz then pulled her hands from under the blanket, revealing her fingers, which were creating green sparks, and she inhaled a deep breath. She needed to be open about everything when it came to Max, especially this since she knew he would definitely want to know.
“W-What is that?” Max asked, as he gasped at the sight of her fingers creating green sparks emerging from the fingertips. “Does it hurt?”
Liz shook her head, as she looked at him, and she bit down on her bottom lip. “I’ve pretty much gotten used to it.”
“It doesn’t hurt, does it?” Max asked, as he let his fingers touch the green electric spark, a sigh leaving his lips when he looked up at her. “How long has this been going on?”
Liz bit her lip, as she rubbed the back of her neck, and she slid her tongue across her bottom lip. “I think it’s been happening for about seven months, actually. Ava has been really comforting, helping me control it.”
Max was really happy that she hadn’t been going through this by herself because if she had, he really didn’t know what he would have done. “Oh Liz, I’m sorry. I feel like this is all my fault. If we hadn’t gotten involved, maybe you would be normal.”
Liz frowned at his words, as she grabbed his hand, and she squeezed it gently. “I wouldn’t have been happy without you in my life, Max.”
“I just wish I could do something to take away the pain I caused you,” Max sighed, as he looked over at her beautiful face, and he then looked down to her stomach where a small smile formed against his lips. “So, we’re going to have a baby together.”
When she saw that smile on his face, Liz felt butterflies in the pit of her stomach, and she looked over to his face, loving that he was here. It still amazed her that after one time together that she was pregnant with the love of her life’s child.
“I didn’t plan on getting pregnant,” Liz admitted softly, as she then placed a hand on her flat stomach when she pushed her shirt up, her sparks radiating against her skin right there. “I guess it was inevitable or something but I am kind of glad that this baby is yours, Max.”
Liz was kind of hoping that maybe this baby would pull the two of them back together, as she had always loved Max, and ever since he left her in tears, it was pretty positive that she would never love anyone but him.
“I was going to make a doctor’s appointment for you when I heard how sick you were,” Max confided in her, as he looked over to her face, moving a few strands of hair from her face. “I can still do it if you want?”
“Would you?”
››
Ava looked in the direction of Liz’s bedroom, frowning to the quietness, but a part of her was happy at the same time too. The last thing she needed was Max yelling at her and she knew that she was just making herself going crazy. If she knew Max well, she knew that he wouldn’t do anything wrong, especially with both Zan and her here.
“Babe, c’mon now – you know that Lizzie’s all right. I know that they’re going to be fine,” Zan said, as he caressed her cheek with the back of his hand, sliding his other hand around her waist.
“I know, Zan, but I am just so worried about her,” Ava said with a slight smile on her face, as she placed a hand on her stomach, and she bit down on her bottom lip.
“Ava, when do you want to tell everyone the news?”
Ava simply shrugged her shoulders. “I… I don’t know, Zan. I don’t want to take away Lizzie’s happiness, especially with her so in love with Max. I need her to be able to be happy before we tell anyone that we’re expecting.”
“Well, it can’t be long because you’re almost four months, Ava,” Zan grinned, as he placed his hand upon her stomach, and he licked his lips. “You’re going to look so hot.”
Ava rolled her eyes, as she pressed herself in his lap, and she looked into his eyes. “Kiss me, Zan.”
“With pleasure,” Zan grinned, as he leaned forward, fusing his lips right against her lips.

Max put his cell phone in the pocket of his shirt, as he looked at Liz, who had fallen asleep with her hand on her belly. She looked beat and all he knew was he was going to be there for her. As he began to crawl out of the bed, he felt Liz grab his hand, and he looked down into her eyes, since he was right over her with his legs on either side of her. This was how it all started except they had been drunk and horny.
“You’re leaving?” Liz asked in a soft voice, as she looked over at Max, and she continued to stroke her stomach.
“I wasn’t sure if you wanted me to stay in here with you, Liz. I mean, I’ll stay here with you if you want me to?”
Liz simply nodded her head, as she looked over at him, and she watched him lay back down right beside her where his fingers intertwined with hers that were on her stomach. Liz felt so much better that she didn’t have anymore secrets from Max anymore.
“Liz, I don’t know how I can ever make it up to you for being such a jerk to you,” Max sighed, as he looked down at her, his hand moving over her stomach when she removed it. “I just hope that you know that I didn’t mean to lash out at you. I was just shocked that you told everyone before me.”
“Trust me – I wanted to tell you so badly,” Liz sighed, as she leaned back against the headboard of the bed, and she took a deep breath. “I just couldn’t risk anything being changed, Max. The whole point was keeping Tess here as long as possible. Now, she’s no good to us.”
“And unfortunately, she just won’t go away, either.”
“At least Ava is good,” Liz smiled, as she looked at Max, and she rubbed her stomach, sighing softly. “Max, do you think you can go ahead and get me a few things from the store like some butter pecan ice cream and maybe some ginger tea?”
Max sat up, already sliding out of the bed, and he bit down on his bottom lip. “Yeah, I can do that. Anything else you need or want?”
Liz quickly shook her head, as she looked over at Max, and she slid out of the bed. “No, I think that I am going to get cleaned up by washing up.”
Max leaned down and he pressed a kiss against her temple before he walked out. He knew they still had a lot to talk about, especially about his future self coming to see her. That was what he needed to know most about what had happened and why they had to be apart because of that. Why did Tess have to stay?

Previously…
Zan sighed, as he looked over at Max, and he rubbed across the nape of his neck. “She’ll be fine. Ever since you broke Liz’s heart, you lost that privilege of wondering what was going on.”
But it was too late! Max turned on his heel and headed for Liz’s door. When he opened the door, it was what not what he was expecting.

What Could Be (CC,M/L,MATURE) Part 13 - 9/25/09
Hey everyone, sorry for the lateness of this update, and I really hope that you all will like what I've done. Anyways, enjoy the chapter, and don't forget to leave feedback, either!
Previously…
Max sat up, already sliding out of the bed, and he bit down on his bottom lip. “Yeah, I can do that. Anything else you need or want?”
Liz quickly shook her head, as she looked over at Max, and she slid out of the bed. “No, I think that I am going to get cleaned up by washing up.”

That was what he needed to know most about what had happened and why they had to be apart because of that. Why did Tess have to stay?

Ava knew that she was starting to show since she was four months along in her pregnancy but she didn’t want to take everyone’s excitement about Max’s and her baby when they would find out she was carrying Zan’s baby. She knew she really wanted to tell Liz since she was like her best friend. Liz was already going through a rough time and it might boost her up when she’d find out she was carrying Zan’s child. At least that was what she was hoping.
As she walked out of her bedroom in one of Zan’s baggy shirts and a pair of boxers, she moved to Liz’s door, and she knocked on it with a light smile on her face. She was so nervous that Liz would hate her guts of finding out what she had been hiding from her.
“Come in.”
Ava poked her head in and she smiled at the sight of Max sitting next to Liz, reading her a few things from a book, which she guessed was a pregnancy book by the pregnant woman on the cover. It was like they had never even broken up in the first place and she knew that Max was going to take care of her.
“Hey Ava,” Max said with a grin, as he placed the book in his lap, and he saw the look on her face. “All right, all right, I will leave you two be.”
As Liz got a kiss on her forehead by Max, she watched Ava sit down on the bed beside her, and she gave the girl a small smile on her face.
“So, how are you feeling, Liz?” Ava asked softly, as she looked at her with a small smile, and she ran her fingers through her hair. “You’ve been cooped up in here for quite some time.”
“Yeah… because Max won’t let me leave his sight,” Liz said with a tiny laugh, as a blush cascaded across her cheeks, and she placed her hand on her stomach. “I think he’s more worried about this baby than I am.”
“Well, it is your first trimester. That is the hardest part of your pregnancy,” Ava said with a grin on her face, as she subconsciously placed a hand on her belly, and she looked at her. “There’s something that I need to tell you.”
“Ooooh! I love surprises!” Liz said with a bright grin on her face, as she looked over at Ava, and she leaned back against the pillow she was leaning against.
“Well, I know I should have told you, but the thing is… Lizzie, I’m four months pregnant,” Ava said softly, as she avoided looking at her, and she looked down at her stomach. “I didn’t want to take away the joy from you or this baby, Liz.”
“Ava, I know you’re pregnant,” Liz said with a laugh, as she saw the surprised look on her friend’s face, and she shook her head. “When you start eating weird things around me and start throwing up constantly, it’s kind of hard to miss. I do want to say congratulations, though. You’ve already got a cute bump, though.”
Ava blushed softly, as she looked at her, and she then took a deep breath. “I just wanted you to be happy.”
“And I’d be even happier with us going through this together, Ava. What better person to help me through this?” Liz asked softly, as she looked at her, and she flashed her a small smile. “You’re so lucky that you don’t have to go through the morning sickness anymore.”
“Not so much but I am still going through it every now and then, Lizzie.”
When Liz watched her friend lift up her shirt slightly, Liz was beaming when she saw her friend’s belly bump, and she grinned at the sight of Ava’s stomach. She was going to have a little pouch and it excited her that Ava and her would be going through their pregnancy together.
“You are going to be even more beautiful when you’re six… seven months, Ava,” Liz said with a grin, as she looked over at her friend in her eyes, and she looked down at her stomach with a shrug. “I just hope I’ll look decent.”
“Oh Lizzie, of course you will be. You’re going to be so beautiful and Max won’t be able to take his hands off of you. I like to think that this baby is only going to push you together,” Ava admitted, as she scooted off the bed, and she pushed Zan’s shirt down that she was wearing. “Maybe it’ll even make Tess leave town.”
“Ah, how easy that would be, babe,” Zan grinned, as he walked in the room, sliding his arms from behind her, placing his hand on the bump where Max scooted back on the bed with a smirk next to Liz. “We’re going to protect you girls from her.”
Zan then led Ava out of the room before he shut the bedroom door shut. He wanted some alone time with the mother of his child.
When Liz felt Max’s arms around her, she snuggled into him, enjoying the way his hand crept under her shirt to the feel of his hand touching her skin upon her belly. Her fingers stirred up the electricity, blushing slightly when she lifted her shirt up, looking at her belly where her stomach was glowing. They knew that their baby was going to be pretty powerful but she was still scared of giving birth. After Valenti rented an ultrasound machine, they realized that their baby was human after they took a look.
“Our baby is going to be quite special,” Max whispered against her ear, placing a kiss behind her ear, and he continued to stroke her stomach, and he pulled his face away to look down at her.
“Just like his or her father.”
“And mother,” Max said with a cheesy grin, as he looked over at her beautiful smile, and he looked down at her, moving some hair from her face. “I was thinking that after Ava’s doctor’s appointment, we could actually start looking for some baby clothes. It’s always good to shop early to get more clothes.”
“We’re going to her doctor’s appointment, why?”
Max chuckled, as he kissed her temple, and he looked down at her. “I thought she mentioned it. I think Zan and I came a little earlier than expected. Basically, Ava really wants you there. She’s wanted you from the start since you are like a sister to her.”
“Well, I’d be delighted to go there, and where would you like to go shopping for baby clothes?”
As they started to catch up on what they were going to do for tomorrow, little did they know that a blonde was watching them from the cracked door.
“Max, you will be mine.”
Previously…
Max sat up, already sliding out of the bed, and he bit down on his bottom lip. “Yeah, I can do that. Anything else you need or want?”
Liz quickly shook her head, as she looked over at Max, and she slid out of the bed. “No, I think that I am going to get cleaned up by washing up.”
Max leaned down and he pressed a kiss against her temple before he walked out. He knew they still had a lot to talk about, especially about his future self coming to see her. That was what he needed to know most about what had happened and why they had to be apart because of that. Why did Tess have to stay?

Ava knew that she was starting to show since she was four months along in her pregnancy but she didn’t want to take everyone’s excitement about Max’s and her baby when they would find out she was carrying Zan’s baby. She knew she really wanted to tell Liz since she was like her best friend. Liz was already going through a rough time and it might boost her up when she’d find out she was carrying Zan’s child. At least that was what she was hoping.
As she walked out of her bedroom in one of Zan’s baggy shirts and a pair of boxers, she moved to Liz’s door, and she knocked on it with a light smile on her face. She was so nervous that Liz would hate her guts of finding out what she had been hiding from her.
“Come in.”
Ava poked her head in and she smiled at the sight of Max sitting next to Liz, reading her a few things from a book, which she guessed was a pregnancy book by the pregnant woman on the cover. It was like they had never even broken up in the first place and she knew that Max was going to take care of her.
“Hey Ava,” Max said with a grin, as he placed the book in his lap, and he saw the look on her face. “All right, all right, I will leave you two be.”
As Liz got a kiss on her forehead by Max, she watched Ava sit down on the bed beside her, and she gave the girl a small smile on her face.
“So, how are you feeling, Liz?” Ava asked softly, as she looked at her with a small smile, and she ran her fingers through her hair. “You’ve been cooped up in here for quite some time.”
“Yeah… because Max won’t let me leave his sight,” Liz said with a tiny laugh, as a blush cascaded across her cheeks, and she placed her hand on her stomach. “I think he’s more worried about this baby than I am.”
“Well, it is your first trimester. That is the hardest part of your pregnancy,” Ava said with a grin on her face, as she subconsciously placed a hand on her belly, and she looked at her. “There’s something that I need to tell you.”
“Ooooh! I love surprises!” Liz said with a bright grin on her face, as she looked over at Ava, and she leaned back against the pillow she was leaning against.
“Well, I know I should have told you, but the thing is… Lizzie, I’m four months pregnant,” Ava said softly, as she avoided looking at her, and she looked down at her stomach. “I didn’t want to take away the joy from you or this baby, Liz.”
“Ava, I know you’re pregnant,” Liz said with a laugh, as she saw the surprised look on her friend’s face, and she shook her head. “When you start eating weird things around me and start throwing up constantly, it’s kind of hard to miss. I do want to say congratulations, though. You’ve already got a cute bump, though.”
Ava blushed softly, as she looked at her, and she then took a deep breath. “I just wanted you to be happy.”
“And I’d be even happier with us going through this together, Ava. What better person to help me through this?” Liz asked softly, as she looked at her, and she flashed her a small smile. “You’re so lucky that you don’t have to go through the morning sickness anymore.”
“Not so much but I am still going through it every now and then, Lizzie.”
When Liz watched her friend lift up her shirt slightly, Liz was beaming when she saw her friend’s belly bump, and she grinned at the sight of Ava’s stomach. She was going to have a little pouch and it excited her that Ava and her would be going through their pregnancy together.
“You are going to be even more beautiful when you’re six… seven months, Ava,” Liz said with a grin, as she looked over at her friend in her eyes, and she looked down at her stomach with a shrug. “I just hope I’ll look decent.”
“Oh Lizzie, of course you will be. You’re going to be so beautiful and Max won’t be able to take his hands off of you. I like to think that this baby is only going to push you together,” Ava admitted, as she scooted off the bed, and she pushed Zan’s shirt down that she was wearing. “Maybe it’ll even make Tess leave town.”
“Ah, how easy that would be, babe,” Zan grinned, as he walked in the room, sliding his arms from behind her, placing his hand on the bump where Max scooted back on the bed with a smirk next to Liz. “We’re going to protect you girls from her.”
Zan then led Ava out of the room before he shut the bedroom door shut. He wanted some alone time with the mother of his child.
When Liz felt Max’s arms around her, she snuggled into him, enjoying the way his hand crept under her shirt to the feel of his hand touching her skin upon her belly.
