Rating: ADULT

Genre: Angsty; M/L; Alien

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Roswell characters.

Summary: Wow,"To Give Her Up" is about Liz going back in time after "Graduation" to Max, the night before Liz gets shot to get him to stop her past self from getting shot. "FBBL", deals with the pod squad returning after being a year in Antar, to find Roswell has been taken over by Skins and Liz has new friends. So that's all I can say without spilling the beans.

Authors' Notes: First of all thank you for reading. FBBL was my first sequel and that makes COTT my first Trilogy, so be gentle. Um, thanks...to Icequeen and Lizard_Queen, who stayed on hours with me to help me get COTT up on it's legs. Feedback please. I have to know what you think.

What did it mean? Did it mean Tess was coming back? Or that what ever made the Skin kill himself was coming? Or both? Max is right...it can’t be good...because if whoever’s coming back is coming back with intentions to activate the Denathon...that means....they’re coming for...ME.

Liz’s Balcony
Thursday, April 5th, 2001- 8 A.M.


Paint what you know, not what you see
Hope blinds reason, thankfully
Know how it is when something fits
There's just a question of being it


“Careful.” I warn Maria, who almost blew my cup away as she practice using her powers.

“Oops, sorry.” Maria apologizes from behind her hand that covered her mouth.

“Try to focus on where you want to send it before you actually do.” I advise as I watch her from the futon.

Today was our day off, while Ava and Isabel waited tables, I was here trying to coach Maria on her new developing powers. I came up with the theory that Maria and Kyle’s powers came sooner than mine did because Zan was ‘different’ from Max, which was brought to my attention a lot more now and days.

Max tried to restore what time in my life he’s missed, while working the full time, night shift, as a security guard at some research lab. A job that Michael got him after his boss was caught stealing samples from one of the labs. Milton had offered Max a job at the UFO Center, but minimum wage isn’t an option right now.


I'd do anything to see you smile again
And I'd go anywhere so as not to feel your pain
I wanna live and the fear is all gone
I wanna protect and I know what it's from
I wasn't made for secrets like these
Chinese whispers, memories


“Hey, Maria. I’m hungry. I’m gonna go downstairs and eat.” I suggest and climb in my window and head downstairs to the Crashdown.



The Crashdown


Nothing is done without effect
There's nothing done that won't reflect
Pull one brick from an endless wall
Would it drown us all?


‘Ding’

I hear the order bell ring and flash a smile to Kyle who’s working frantically to pull in three orders, I assume, seeing three order check clipped on the order wheel. I sit in the free booth closest to the kitchen door and watch Alex make his way to me.

“Eating?” He asked with a smile.

“Um, some Orbit Rings would be great.” I answer with a forced smile. Alex nods and pushes passes the aqua blue swinging door, to place my order personally with Kyle and makes his way back to sit across from me.

“What’s wrong?” Alex asked, reading my distantness like an open book.


'Cause I'd do anything to see you smile again
And I'd go anywhere so as not to feel your pain
'Cause I wanna live where the fear is all gone
I wanna protect, and I know what it's from
I wasn't made for secrets like these
Chinese whispers and memories


“Oh, um, it’s nothing. I think I’m getting a cold or something.” I lie and cup my face with my elbows on the table. Alex looks at me skeptically, but doesn’t push a interrogation. He slides from behind the table and plants a kiss on the top of my head before returning to play manager of the restaurant.


You just need love like you say you do
And there may never be a time when it won't get through
Yeah, you know how it is when something fits
Now there's just a question of being it


I hated lying to him, but what was I suppose to tell him? That Max had become distant, more quiet, and we only made love once since the last time? That wasn’t information I was too keen on sharing with my friends, especially to Alex, who seemed to be living the Brady Bunch life with Isabel. The two were nauseating..even for me. Uh, I think that’s jealousy talking.


And I'd do anything to see you smile again
But I'd go anywhere so as not to feel your pain
'Cause I wanna live and the fear is all gone
I wanna protect, and I know what it's from
Yeah I wasn't made for secrets like these
Chinese whispers, memories


I tried giving Max space...but space ended up being silence...and silence ended up being avoidance. I would make myself busy during the day while he slept and then pretend to be asleep while he got ready for work. I don’t know how we would’ve pulled off our routine if we were still in school. School. A place I’m missing terribly right now. I’d be able to hide underneath the burden of doing homework and Senior activities, as opposed to hanging out here even when I’m not working.

School...it was announced that the students of West Roswell High with be under "special circumstantial summmer vacation" and won't be able to return until the regular sechduled first day of school comes into affect.

What time is it? 8:10 A.M. Max and Michael should be coming in 20 minutes. I better go upstairs.


Nothing is done without effect
There's nothing done that won't reflect
If I pull one brick from an endless wall
Would it drown us all?



Michael’s Room

“Hey Maria. Had enough practice?” I asked, finding her sitting on the bed and painting her toenails neon blue, while she listened to the radio.

“Yeah, I thought I did good for today.” Maria said with a nod, but then did a double look at me and the closed up the fingernail polish. “What’s up?” She asked patting on the spot beside her. I didn’t even make it past the doorway before I broke out into tears. “Oh, Chica, what is it?” Maria asked heartbroken when she heard my painful cry. “Shh. Shh. It’s okay. It’s okay. You don’t have to tell me.” Maria whispered in a soft soothing voice as she brushed my hair back as I continued to cry on her Scooby Doo pillow.

I couldn't hold it in any more. I had to let out everything I’ve been feeling for the past month...but instead of letting it out verbally...my body only allowed it to be released in tears. It must have been from the crying or Maria’s comforting action...or both...that I ended up falling asleep.


25 minutes later....

“Hey, Space Boy.” Maria whispered when Michael came in, unclipping his black tie and tossing it on the side.

“Hey.” Michael answered, hooking his security hat on the door knob and then stopped when he noticed Liz balled up in their bed and point to her flashing Maria a ‘what’s she doing here’ look.

“I think her and Max have to have a long talk. The girl has been crying for twenty minutes straight and then she just crashed.” Maria whispered as she pulled Michael to the side so they would wake her up.

“Why?” Michael questioned bewildered and concerned.

“I don’t know why?” Maria shrugged.

“Then why do you think it has to do with Max?” Michael questioned not knowing where Maria’s theories were coming from.

“Uh, something in the sentence ‘Max doesn’t want me’, gave it away.” Maria answered sarcastically. “She’s been mumbling the same thing over and over.”

“So what the hell am I suppose to do? I can’t dream walk.” Michael whispered frustrated.

“Take her back to her room. Let Max talk to her.” Maria suggested. Michael bit back his comment and moved over to the side of the bed to scoop her up and take her to her room.



Liz’s Room

“Liz is that...” Max trailed off when he saw Michael carrying Liz in. “Is she okay?” Max asked worried as he stepped aside to let Michael lie her on the bed.

“She’s sleeping.” Michael informed him as he covered her and then looked to Max. “Maria said she was crying a lot and that she was talking in her sleep saying that you don’t want her.” Michael told him in an angry, over-protective tone.

"Of course I want her." Max debated as he sat on the bed and looked to Liz and then to Michael.

“You gotta tell her Maxwell...before you hurt her more.”

“I know...I will....tonight.”

Thanks, it's temporary, until I can master PS7. When I looked abstractly at the banner it looks like the Grim Reapper's there, which makes it even perfect cause death is a main factor in COTT.

They'll come up later on...trying hard to be Roswell Citizens.

Arianneleigh wrote:Awwww I love that Michael is getting to be sensitive.

Yeah, I love writing Michael and Maria. Maybe when I have time, I'll consider writing a Candy fic. Candy right? That's what Michael/Maria shippers are called right? Until then I'm gonna try to add as much Mi/Maria moments as I can.

Absolutely hilarious.

Lizard_Queen wrote:Great chapter. Plz make this one longer than the last 2 fics. Its depressing that they end so fast. And hurry up and update again! yay! I got mentioned in the begining! Any time you need my help, theres a really good chance i'm on here... so don't b afraid to ask. And remember, the faster this one ends, the more ppl your going to have asking you for a sequel to the sequel of the sequel !!!!

I have a few twists that might last a while. I would love for them to last like "Erase and Rewind", that was a Crashdown_51, record breaking, 50 Chapters . A fourth part? Hmmm. What are the fourth part's called? Quad-rool-logy? LOL

baby_bre wrote:OMG poor Liz! I wonder what Max's problem him, is it because he's stressed out?

NOPE.

Hmmm.


OMG, Coley452, FB's absolutely hilarious. You made me even feel like apologizing to Liz.

Author's Note: Max quote's in dark blue. Liz's in violet.


Liz’s Room
9:43 P.M.

Mmmm. I smell Max. His sweet aroma all around me...wait I smell something else...wax? Candle wax? I open me eyes slowly to find myself in Max’s arms and him looking down curiously at me. “Hi.” He whispered to me as he tucked my wild hair behind me ear. I get up cautiously, not removing our eye contact, and sat up .


A warning sign
I missed the good part then I realized
I started looking and the bubble burst
I started looking for excuses


“Hi.” I answered uneased over how I’m suppose to act and notice that he notices me pulling away from him. I smell the burning candle wax again, this time getting a whiff of strawberries, I turn to scan my room for where the smell was coming from, and find my room has been decorated with candles, rose petals and ‘I’m sorry’ balloons. A grin makes it way across my face, that’s soon joined by me teeth when I bit my lower lip completely taken back by the sight.


Come on in, I’ve gotta tell you what a state I’m in
I’ve gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign


“Do you like it?” He asked with a worried smile, trying to look at my expression when I didn’t face him.

“Um, yeah. It’s beautiful.” I answer in amazement and then look at him to see relief had hit him. “What’s going on?” I asked cautious over his sudden change.


When the truth is
I miss you


“Um, I heard you talking in your sleep.” He answered sadly.


Yeah the truth is
That I miss you so


Oh, my God! I was talking in my sleep? What did I say? I hope it was nothing over the top.

“Uh, what exactly ‘did’ I say?” I ask in a panic.

“That...that I didn’t want you.” Max answered in a stutter and then turned a little to face me completely.


A warning sign
You came back to haunt me and I realized
That you were an island and I passed you by
And you were an island to discover


“Oh.” I murmur and then lower my head from embarrassment, where I noticed that I’m wearing Max’s t-shirt, the one I wear to go to sleep. He must have changed me into it when I was sleeping.

“Liz.” Max called out as he pulled my chin up with his curled finger so I could look him in the eyes. “How can you think I don’t want want you? I do. I want you so much.” Max confessed as he ran his hand on my neck to hold it while he connected his forehead on mine.


Come on in,
I’ve gotta tell you what a state I’m in
I’ve gotta tell you in my loudest tones
That I started looking for a warning sign


“Max...you barely look at me let only touch me...so what else am I suppose to think?” I cried. I couldn’t help it. Just thinking of him sleeping right beside me and absolutely nothing happening! I thought it was any normal teenage guys dream to sleep next to their half naked girlfriend? Maybe that was my mistake. Considering Max as a “normal” teenage guy.

“I know and I’m really sorry...but it’s...it’s just...”

“Just what?” I questioned as he stammered with his words.

“Okay. I really didn’t know how to say this to you...”

“Just say it.” I order softly and then brush his cheek. I watched him bury his cheek into my hand with his eyes closed and the kissed my palm before he pulled away and paced a little before my patience broke. “Max, you’re scaring me. Please just tell me.” I beg as I sit on my bare legs.

“Liz, a little after we found out that the ship was gone...I started to get...flashes.” Max confessed and then looked at me slowly to see how I took the news.

“Flashes?” I repeat confused shaking my head lightly as my eyebrow scrunched up when I tightened my eyes.

“No not flashes.” Max quickly corrected himself and then sat beside me. “Visions.”

“What kind of visions?” I asked with a tremble in my voice already knowing where this was going...and to whom.

“Visions of Tess.” Max finally admitted, lowering his head in shame.

“Wha-what are th-they about?” I question, knowing what I’m about to hear is not going to be good.

“Liz, I don’t think...”

“No. I want to know.” I say both in a command and in a plea. I watched Max struggle to come up with the words to describe his “visions” of Tess as I wait impatiently while I pick on my fingernails, wondering if I’d regret asking to know what they were.

“There about...Tess....and me....together.” Max admits in shame and then looks to see my reaction. I bit my trembling lip and felt my eyes replenishing with fresh tears that were gathering from the ill-setting news. I lower my head to hide the few tears that escaped my eyes with my draping hair and then move away when Max reached out to move my hair away from my face.

“Together. You mean sexually?” I asked as my voice started to crack and my hands began to shake. And then Max nods ‘yes’. My heart sunk into my stomach and suddenly my bottle of Haiku shattered along with the flickering lights...good thing he had the candles lit. Max looks at the broken perfume bottle that engulfed the sensual fumes and then looked back at me.


‘That’s what you smell like...rose water, Haiku, and strawberries.’


I shake the thought and continue looking at him in bewilderment.

“Liz, it’s not me. She’s making me have them. I’ve tried blocking them, but I can’t...” Max anxiously tried to explain himself while I stood quietly and watch his sincere explanation. “That’s why I pulled away. I didn’t want you to get a flash and....and...”

“See what you see?” I finish of for him in puzzlement, just seeing him nod and then lower his head again. “Why wouldn’t you?” I asked as I moved slowly to sit by him. He just looked at me mystified, not knowing why I would want to get the flashes in the first place. “Max, if I would have gotten the flashes...I would have felt what you felt...not wanting to be with her...unless...”

“No. There’s no “unless”. I don’t want to be with her. How can I want to be with anyone...when you’re the only one I want?” Max asked, assuring me and clearing me of my previous doubt.

“Show me.” I command softly as I take his hands and place them on the sides of my face.


And the truth is
I miss you
Yeah the truth is
I miss you so
And I’m tired
I should not have let you go


“You want me to give you the flashes?” Max questioned cautiously.

“No.” I answer and gave him a soft kiss. “I want you to show me that you want me.” I say in a husky voice as I skim the bottom of his top lip with the tip of my tongue and then kiss him again.

“But the flashes?” Max said pulling away, covering his face with his hands and resting his elbows on his knees. “I can’t stop them.”

“Yes. Yes you can.” I assure him and shift his shoulders so he could look at me. “Just think of me.” I whisper jazzy and lift my shirt over my head, leaving myself kneeling on the bed in my cotton underwear with little green aliens holding up the peace sign, and see him smile because of it before I stripped him of his shirt. He stands up, and I pull him by the waist of his jeans and pull his head down for a kiss while I snaked my hands to the sides of his sweat pants and pull them down with his boxers, leaving him completely bare, reminding me of one of the stone giants, David. I crawl up to the pillows and turn seductively to my side and motion for him to join me with the bewitching curl of my finger.


So I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms
And I crawl back into your open arms
Yes I crawl back into your open arms.


Max smiles, taking in a breath of the sweet smelling airborne Haiku and the flames of the strawberry scented candles and then crawled on the bed and veiled my body with his 6’1’ frame, covering our bodies with the linen sheets, and then continues to breathe in my similar scent, drinking my thirst for him in a spellbinding kiss.

‘Max.’

Max quickly pulled away when a flash of Tess calling out to him in the desert, where the ground was covered in alien writing.

“I can’t.” Max struggled as he shook his head.

“Shhh. Trust me.” I whisper and then see his painful expression disappear by my words. I turn and lie him on his back and then climb on top of him, sitting on top his re-energizing arousal. I lean down and plant a soft kiss on his lips and brush the sides of his face. “Max. You have to look at me, Max.” I whisper using his words, that made me feel enchanting and then nicked his lips before I coaxed his lips with mine, giving him flashes of moments we shared.


'Liz…Liz, you have to look at me.'


'I’m sorry, Liz…I thought about telling you a thousand times…'
'You have…me?'

'So, when you healed me…you risked your secret getting out? ....Why?'
'It was you.'


'I have to go Liz.'
'Why?'
'Cuz if I don't go right now...I'm gonna have to touch your hair...cuz it's so soft...and I'd have to tell you that...no matter what we go through, it's all worthwhile for me because we're together.'
'And then?'
'And then...I'd have to do this...'


I broke our growing kiss for moment while I stripped myself of what little cloth that separated from feeling Max inside me. I watched as Max gazed at me in fascination as I revealed my nude self to him and then leaned back down to kiss him, providing him with another rush of flashes of us, while I positioned myself to covet Max inside of me.


'I just…how is it possible that I could be...I could be the happiest that I've ever been in my entire life...you know, and now the saddest all at...all at one time?'
'I guess that’s what being in love is.'
'Yea, I think so too.'


'You would do that to hurt me? Have him on you like this? Touch you like this?'
'No. Never.'
'Tell me, only me, Liz. That you’re mine just like I’m yours.'
'Only you, Max. I only want you.'
'Show me, Liz.'


Yes.
Yes, what?
Yes, I want you...I need you...
Liz, are you sure?
I’ve always been sure...I only want you.
You have to look at me, Liz.


God, did I miss him like this...and I could feel that he did too. I could feel my feminine muscles adjust, from he long absence of him, and then bestowed him with another series of flashes.


'So you’re okay with what happened?”
'Why? Are you?”
'Yes. Yes. I am.' '.....It was incredible...to actually feel myself inside you...amazing.' '....Thank you, Liz Parker.'
'For what?'
'For letting me have you...for sharing yourself with me.'
'Max, this whole year. Tess. They all don’t matter....because...because I finally got to have you, Max.'


I could fell an erotic tingle forming in our connection that instinctively caused me to place the heel of hand below his belly button and the other flat on the side of us, to govern my hips bettered as I swayed back and forth, commencing the start of our supernatural friction that transmitted another gleam of us.


'You, Liz Parker, are and always will be the woman in my life. You are what kept me going in Antar. The thought of seeing you again, the thought of touching you...your soft hair...kissing you...just thinking that I’d be able to do that again gave me hope and kept me going. I love you Liz. And please don’t ever forget that.'


My hips gave of a wave-like motion, feeling Max’s manhood following rhythmically along with my rhythm as he too guided my hips to add a stronger force to our sexual confrontation.

“Uh.” I panted, feeling Max’s hand slide deeply up my hips to squeeze and claps my breasts. I purr from the feeling and lift my hand from the bed to cloak one of his and make him repeat his seducing action by squeezing his hand and brushing it with the heel of my thumb as a bit my lip in enjoyment when he complied with my demand.

“Liz.” Max hissed as he strengthened his grip. I leaned down, pressed my freed breast against his hard chest and kissed him, teasing his lips with my tongue before finally accepting his thirsty crave and tasting the caverns of his mouth with it. “Mmm.” He moaned as he ran his hands up and down my back before they finally settled on my butt, where he gave it the same attention and treatment that he provided my breasts with.


Pride can stand a thousand trials
The strong will never fall


“Uuh.” I sing as I feel our friction becoming more demanding. I wrap one arm around my waist while I run my fingers through my long hair and keep my arm on my head to hold my hair back from falling over my face, but then felt Max pulled my arm down and released my hair in a waterfall effect. Reminding me that he loved touching my hair.


'I'm gonna have to touch your hair...cuz it's so soft...


“God, you’re so beautiful.” Max whispered as he ran his hands up and down my folded legs and then stretched his hand out to cup my face, making me lean in a bit, feeling his thumb trace my lips before he inserted it into me mouth and hissed when I sucked on it.


But watching stars without you....
My soul cried.


With one strong swoop, Max had me on my back without breaking our private connection under the sheets and then took control of our unearthly situation, losing track of time in our electric cloud of alien/human magical bliss.

“I love you. I love you.” Max repeated over as he rocked in and out of me, rubbing and increasing my over-charged organismic gloss. “Tell me you love me, Liz.”


Heaving heart is full of pain,
Oh...
Oh....
The aching


“I love you Max.” I say, obeying his request, and then connected our lips together again to cover our moans that were becoming louder and louder.


'Cos I'm....
kissing you
oh….


“I love you.” Max repeated again, and then hook my leg up to deepen his access inside of me. “Are you okay?” Max questioned when I yelped in the first thrust. I bit my lip and nodded before answering.


I'm kissing you, oh...


“Keep going Max.” I plead as I wrap my arms around his waist to pull him down on me. Max hesitated at first to continue with his previous speed but then finally gave in when I squeezed his butt with both hands, causing him to moan in ecstasy in the crook of my neck as he planted tiny kisses. “Mmm.” I hum as I stretch my neck to allow him better access, access that he took and began traveling up my neck and behind my ear with his lips and tongue.


Touch me deep...


“You taste...you smell....so good.” Max whispered in my ear before sucking on my earlobe.


Pure and true...


“You feel...God, this feels so good.” I moan, enjoying the addictive feeling of having him inside me.


Gift to me forever.


“You make it feel good.” Max replies as he continues to rock in me.

“Mmm...I think it also has to do with you not being of this Earth.” I respond in a alluring giggle, remembering that was the term he described himself as, “not of this Earth”.

“That helps, but it’s more you than anything.” Max answers with a nod and a smile before he kisses me again. “Mmm.” He hummed and then rested on one elbow to thrust harder in me.


Cos I'm kissing you
Oh...
I'm...
Kissing you...


“Mmm...God, Max.”

“Uh, Liz.”


'Cos I'm...
Oh...
I'm kissing you.
I'm….
Kissing you
Oh...
Ohhhh....!


We moan as I feel my erotic gloss start to release and blend with his, before emitting a passionate shiver, finally giving into to orgasmic enchantment. Max’s sweaty body collapse on top of mine, where I hear him panting and breathing as he tried to regain control of his shivering body, but then a faint noise in the background grabs my attention.

“Shh.” I shush Max with a kiss.

“Umm...mmm.” Max hummed, arching his eyebrow.

“Listen.” I say, covering his mouth with my hand to let him to be quiet so he could try and hear what I hear.


Medallion noose, I hang myself
Saint Anger 'round my neck

I feel my world shake
Like an earth quake
It's hard to see clear
Is it me? Is it fear?
I'm madly in anger with you
I'm madly in anger with you
I'm madly in anger with you
I'm madly in anger with you


We look at each other and then start laughing, when we both hear Metallica’s “St.Anger” blasting next door.

“Do you think they…you know?” I ask pointing to me and him, insinuating that maybe they heard us…um… “making up”.

“I think it was to cover your moaning.” Max smirked and kissed the crook of my neck.

“Mine only, huh?” I asked with an arched eyebrow, making him blush. He’s too cute for words. Then I hear something other than James Hetfield…

‘Uhh…Maria’

I look over to Max who heard Michael’s moan as well.

‘Maria. Maria. Maria.’

We hear Michael repeating Maria’s name over and over with the squeaking of the bed.

‘Maria, say my name. I want to hear you scream it…call me Space Boy.’

Michael pleaded. Max mouthing the words Space Boy in a confused expression.

‘Michael! Shut up and stop jumping on the bed!’

We hear Maria yell back and Michael laughing hysterically turning down the volume of his stereo.

“Uh, kill me now.” I declare in embarrassment as I place Max’s hand to cover my blushing face.

“It’s not that bad.” Max replied, with intentions to see the upside of the situation…but there wasn’t. This is utterly, utterly embarrassing.

“Not that bad? Max. My best friend, ‘your’ best friend, that I consider as a brother, just heard us making love Max. How is it not that bad?”

“Well when you put it that way…” Max answers and then covers me in kisses and then hear a knock on the wall.

‘Put it on ice, Maxwell. We got to get ready to work, so no time for round two.’

Michael announces, putting our pillow talk on hold.

“We still got time.” Max murmured as he pulled me closer to him. I look over to my clock radio and see it’s 11:12 P.M.

“Max, you have to be at work by midnight.” I warn, knowing there wasn’t enough time.

“Yeah, that’s why I plan to take you in the shower with me.” Max said mischievously as he swooped me up in his arms and carried me in to the bathroom.

First of all I would like to thank r0swell_dreamer for nominating me for "Best New Comer"...that # 2 for me. I think it was Angel Eyes that nominated me for [/color]"Best All Around Fic". Thanks guys. I really means a lot to me. I was smiling the whole day when I saw my name there.

Author's Note: Max's quotes in Cyan and Liz's in Violet.

Chapter 3


Liz’s Shower
Thursday, April 5 th , 2001- 11:19 P.M.


“Mmm, Max. We shouldn’t…uh…you’re going to be late.” I moan as Max has me pressed between him and the pink, tiled, shower wall, kissing me as much as he could, while the warm water rained on our bodies from the shower head.

“I don’t care.” Max moaned, pressing his arousal harder against my leg. I attempt to wrap my leg around his so I could relieve some of the tension he was definitely causing me to have, but Max kept lowering my leg down.

“Max.” I whine and try again, but feel him lower my leg again.

“Things are gonna go further if you keep doing that.” Max hissed.

“So.” I answer and suck in his lower lip as I cause enough friction for him to give into my demands. Max smile slyly when I released his lip, turned us so my back was against the cold, glass, shower door, making me poke out my chest, causing Max to hiss before he explored me with his mouth. He ran his hand down my side, squeezed my butt, making me pant in enjoyment before he hooked my leg up in an angle. I lift my arms up and twist my hands to grab on to the top of the shower door, letting out a gasp when Max thrusted himself inside me and started the riveting metaphysical passion that I was quickly becoming addicted to.


'You’re doing that on purpose.'

'Mmm hmm.'

'You win.'


The flashes were coming freely, but from me only. Max was focusing on one vision and one vision only, in order to prevent Tess from transmitting any unwanted flashes, cause the hussy had a gift for when to give off the flashes...whenever Max and me were getting intimate. Again I see the same flash from Max, but I can’t remember it ever happening. In his vision, I’m sleeping and he’s singing to me. I don’t remember that? When did that happen? He sings to me at night? Why didn’t I ever hear him? I’m a light sleeper…I think. Maybe I didn’t wake up because the sound of his mild voice was so soothing.

“Ahh.” I moan, forgetting my thoughts when Max starts pumping inside of me harder, causing my butt to bounce on the shower door and making a loud ‘dung’ sound when I would collide with it.

“Mmm.” Max hums. Just as the sensation was becoming more erotic, a loud bang is heard on the door, causing Max to stop his rhythm completely. “What?” Max yelled as I tried to pick up where he left off, but Max quickly stop when Michael opened his big mouth.

“What the hell are both of you doing in there?”

“Making a cake.” Max answered sarcastically. “What the hell do you think we’re doing? We’re taking a shower.” Max announce as I planted butterfly kisses on his neck and chest.

“Max it’s 11:30! I told you to put it on ice!” Michael yelled angry from the other side of the locked bathroom door. “You know what? Screw this. Maria! Get me the phone. I’m calling Isabel on you.” Michael announced.

“Michael!” Max called out. “Liz I’m so sorry.” Max apologize as he set me down and began soaping up.

“It’s okay.” I force myself to say, very desolated that I couldn’t re-experience Max a little bit longer.

“I promise I’ll make this up to you.” Max guaranteed me when he saw my pout of disappointment. Max steps out of the shower, wraps the towel around his wet body and exited the bathroom. “Michael!” Max yelled and then I faintly hear Maria laughing telling Michael to run.

“Run! Run! Throw it! Throw it!”

I could only assume that Maria and Michael are playing “Keep Away” from Max with the phone. I shake my head amused and finish my shower.


11:45P.M.

When I get out of the shower, Max is already dressed in his security uniform, and I can’t help and feel like pulling him down on the bed and making love to him…hmmm, it must be the uniform. I shake the urge and walk up behind him while I towel dry my hair. “Are you going to make it in time?” I ask and then stuff my hand in his back pocket, step on my tippy toes and give him a peck on the cheek.

“Yeah. We’ll make it if Michael drives.” Max answered with a smile as he wrapped his arms around me.

“Did he call Isabel?” I ask curiously.

“Yeah.” Max answered rolling his eyes, ticked that Michael actually did. “She’s coming over later to kill me later.” He informs me with a small chuckle and then looks down to see my thin robe, and then looked back up at me with a impish smile and a ‘yeah baby’ expression.

“What?” I ask innocently and tossed my towel on the bed so I can stroke his broad muscular arms, that did wonders for the uniform. I look down when I feel Max untying my robe and then exhales when he sees me naked underneath it. He pulls me closer by my waist and pulls me into a heated kiss while his hands explored my body.

“Max!” Michael called out.

“Ugh.” I whine in frustration as I drop my head back and then re-tied my robe.

“I’m gonna kill him.” Max declared and pulled me out to the living room by my hand.

“Max, wait. I have to dry my hair.” I inform him and stop when he does. He gives me a kiss and then runs his hands on top of my hair, drying it with his powers. “Well, aren’t you handy.” I say flirtatiously.

“That’s not all I can do.” Max flirts back and then pulls me into a kiss as he walks backwards to the door.


Living Room

“Mmm…I don’t want to go to work.” Max whined in between our kiss, wrapping his arms around my waist while I wrapped mine around his neck. “Can’t you come with me?” Max asked before covering my lips with his again.

“No, she can’t and break it up already.” Michael ordered, when he entered the living room and looked for his house keys in between the sofa cushions. I giggled at the sight of Max’s puppy pout when Michael declared I couldn’t go, and then gave him a soft peck on the lips. “Liz. I’m serious. Knock it off.” Michael threatened as he placed the sofa pillows back in the designated spots.

“Shut up, Michael!” I yell with an annoyed giggle and then leaned on the arm sofa while Max went into the kitchen to get a glass of water.

“Well, I would if you two stop sucking face.” Michael snapped back and knelt down to look under the coffee table. “Where the hell are my keys?”

“Here. I found them.” Maria announced dangling his house keys as she walked over to him.

“Thanks.” Michael said, kissing Maria quickly in gratitude, making the ‘mmm…mwa’ sound.

“Mmm. Your welcome.” Maria replied, wrapping her arms around Michael’s waist, turning side to side as a pair.

“Awww.” Both Max and me teased.

“Bite me.” Michael answered and then kissed Maria gain to say good-bye. “See ya.”

“Bye.” Maria answered as he headed towards the door.

“Let’s go Maxwell.” Michael commanded to Max and the pointed to Max. “You and me are gonna have a long talk.” Michael threatened in his big brother tone.

“Alright.” I answer him in frustration and then looked back at Max with a smile and wave good-bye to him.

“I’ll see you later, okay?” He tells me. I smile and nod, feeling my cheeks get warmer from blushing, and then tilt my head a little to the side when he kisses me on my cheek and then follows Michael out mouthing the words ‘I love you’ before leaving. I go lock the door and then turn around to see Maria with her eyebrow arched, her arms crossed and her foot tapping.

“Tomorrow.” I tell her, already knowing what she was expecting and then bee-line my way to my room.


Crashdown
Friday, April 6 th , 2001 – 8: 21 A.M.

“In the shower, huh?” Ava asks with an arched eyebrow of curiousity, when she comes in the back, where I’m grabbing a box of straws to refill the empty container.

“Maria!” I call out in a ‘you told’ tone.

“Nah, Maria didn’t squeal. It was Isabel. But just hearing that confirms it.” Ava says with a sly smile, when she tricked me into giving myself away.

“I don’t deny it. I just think it’s private.” I quickly defend myself. “How’s Zan?” I quickly change the subject, asking specifically for Zan since I could give two shits where Rath was.

“He’s cool. Looks different though and is really quiet.” Ava says sadly.

“Is something wrong?” I ask curiously.

“Nah, he’s just…different. More alert. He checks up on me every night, it’s sweet and everything, but a little freaky at the same time because it’s not Zan.”

“What do you mean?”

“Zan never had to worry about anything before. He made everything happen.” Ava recalled letting out a sigh. “He may have not been the real King, but he was to us. Now, I don’t know who he is.”

“I’m sorry. I-I…”

“It’s cool.” Tess shrugged and started to change into her waitress uniform. “You know bustin’ tables ain’t a dream job but it beats stealing to eat and livin’ in a sewer for 18 years.”

Poor, Ava. That girls been through hell. When I first met her, she never spoke unless she was spoken to. So quiet, it was kind of annoying. Now she talks freely, proving she is nothing like Tess at all. Hah, when she first walked in, I quickly thought of Tess. Especially with her mastered Tess make over, that she was forced to take to live as Tess in the public eye.

When I first saw her look, I nearly blasted her to kingdom come, but now, I wait until she starts talking with her New York accent and know it’s her. Thinking of Tess… “Hey Ava. Can I ask you some questions about your powers?”

“Uh Oh, what did Tess do now?” Ava asked as she adjusted her alien antennas.

“She’s been mind warping him again…sending him flashes.” I tell her, trying to hold back my anger.

“Still?” Ava asked surprised.

“Why? What’s wrong?” I asked frightened by her reaction to the news.

“I ain’t no doctor or anything but she’s been mind warping him for a minute now and that’s killin’ his brain.” Ava told me in a warning tone.

“How do you know?” I asked softly, feeling my heart sink to my stomach at the thought of Max dying.

“Our protector gave us all warnings about our powers. He told Zan to never play doctor wit’ his powers. And told Lonnie that if she wasn’t careful into who’s dreams she went into, that she could get trapped in someone’s head.” Ava explained. “Rath’s was that if he could kill faster than us and me…just told you.”

“But she’s been mind warping him more than a year.” I tell her, becoming even more confused.

“Tess…she ain’t stupid. If Max’s still alive after that…she’s gotta have a plan for him.” Ava speculated…and she was right. Tess has a reason for everything she does. So I wonder what her plans are with Max? “Chill. Max’s strong and he can heal himself if he starts to get the headaches.” Ava said with a shrug and tied on her alien apron and headed out to the restaurant to help Kyle turn the chairs over before the restaurant opened.

“So can they be blocked?” I ask her, standing in front her with an arm-full of straws and napkins.

“Yeah, but he got’s to be like freakin’ Mr. Muyogi for it. You know. In control of himself.”

"Good at the beginning, good in the middle, good at the end." Kyle said out loud to no one in particular.

“What?” Both me and Ava asked confused, wondering what the hell Kyle was talking about and to who.

“Oh, it’s a saying. Buddha teaches us…”

“What the hell is it with you humans and the fat dude?” Ava questioned irritated and walked away. Kyle noticed a chair was blocking her way and moved it over with his powers.

“Hey, I’m all half breed, baby.” Kyle yelled, seeing Ava wave off his comment. “Chics.” Kyle shrugged and then looked over to me, where I was giving him a feminist stare for his last comment. “I meant alien chics…that still includes you so stop your staring.”

“Okay.” I shrug off the thought of going into an hour long debate of feminist rights and unacceptable stereotypes, and then returned to the first comment he made. “Now what were you saying before?”

“Oh that. It’s a saying of spiritual practice, meditation, tantra…I mean mantra, mantra.” Kyle quickly corrected himself with his hands frantically out.

“It’s okay.” I say with a laugh. “So do you think you can teach Max?” I ask. If Max can successfully practice meditation, he can clear himself of Tess’s psycho obsession.

“Tantra?” Kyle asked unclear.

“Meditating, Horn Dog.”

“Oh.” Kyle said embarrassed, rubbing the back of his neck and then shoving his hands in his pockets. “Yeah. Sure.”

“Thanks Kyle.” I said, heading back to the kitchen to get more napkins.


Back Room

“Hey, Liz.” Ava called out.

“Yeah?”

“Um, our protector taught Zan some stuff about my powers. Maybe I’ll can tell him to talk to Max.” Ava suggested cautiously.

“You know what. He can tell me cause I don’t think Zan and Max are such a good idea.”

“Okay.” Ava answered and headed back up front’t . What time is it? 8:30 A.M. Max should be here any second. I leave the napkins on the side and bolt up the stairs to wait for him in ‘our’ room.

Sorry it took so long for the update. Writer's block. Lizard_Queen and Icequeen have been helping me break my block...THANKS GUYS. So, I'll be going into my normal updating routine now so don't worry.

News for you Candy fans. When I was suffering from my writer's block. I was making a sig banner for LovinGuerin2Much, my first by the way . Anyways, back to my point, I was washing dishes and then BAM! I thought of this idea for a Michael and Maria fic. I can't get it out of my head, so I've been brainstorming and writing a huge outline on it. So I'm thinking about writing it. But not sure. Maybe.

Hey check out my new banner. I re-did it.

SarahWhitman wrote:I'm still curious as to the how's of things: how did they get permission to live the way they do, how are they allowed to run the restaurant, etc. If you could fill in some of those blanks for me, I'd really appreciate it! But it's no problem, really, if you don't have time or whatever.

Always have time to answer feedback. Okay, everyone in my fic is 18 except Liz, Maria, and Ava. Michael and Liz got emancipated. Ava works for Liz, so she doesn't have to worry about showing her ID. Liz inherited the Crash.

You know what i just thought of when i was reding the bit about Max in his security uniform?

lizard_queen wrote:Will Meris Wheeler and those crazy ppl at the the company try that bit again where they want Max to heal Clayton so he wont die? I mean, one would assume that they may have heard about all this alien noncense going on, even if they never actually did hear about Max healing Liz... so his crazy wife would still want to heal Clayton, and it would explain why both Max and Michael are working there... and perhaps they could see one of them using their powers at worr, or something, which would strengthen their case against them? Or, they may have seen Zan using his powers...

To tell you the truth I've never seen that episode. Yep, folks. They're are some episodes I still haven't seen. It's an interesting angle.

foreverdreamer15 wrote:And is Alex staying with Isabel and Kyle in Isabel's house?

Yes he is.

roswellian504 wrote:Is Zan and Rath bad? Also is Kivar really gone? I asked because no one was in the room with him and Rath and everything is so damn hoaky about whose working with who/whom?

Zan and Rath are behaving, that's all I can say without spilling the beans. Is Khuvar gone? Yes. Although Rath was the only one in the room, he wasn't the only one to bury him. All the guys went except for Kyle cause he wasn't there.

Chapter 4

Liz's Room

I wait anxiously for Max, looking at my clock radio 8:32 A.M. Damn, he’s late. Where the hell is he? I pace back and forth in front of the door and then look back at my clock, 8:33A.M. Where the hell is he?!? I sit on the edge of the bed and shake my leg nervously up and down.

“Liz?” Maria called out opening my door and looking in.

“Yeah?” I answer, disappointed that it was her and not Max.

“Just letting you know that I’m gonna be downstairs. Isabel called in saying she’s going to be late.” Maria informed me.

“Late?” I ask surprised. It wasn’t like her. “Isabel’s the most anal person in this world and I think it’s safe to say in her world too.“

“That’s what I said. But she said it was work related so demanded we keep her on the clock.” Maria said rolling her eyes.

“We’ll see when she get’s here.” I tell Maria, trying to get her to move it along already.

“Moon Doggie's on his way, isn’t he?” Maria asked, picking up on me trying to end the conversation. I couldn’t help but smile and nod. “Dude, you’re so hooked.” Maria laughed. “Look at you. You’re a hype.”

“Am not.” I say and roll my eyes.

“You’re not, huh?” Maria said unconvinced crossing her arms. “Then why when I saw you this morning, you had like 15 layers of clothes on and now you’re just in a Cami and jeans.”

“I got hot.” I say but almost in a form of a question.

“Yeah, I’ll bet.” Maria said with an ‘yeah right’ smirk. Damn Maria and her clever antics. What a time to play Sherlocke Holmes. Speaking of time…8:36 A.M.! Where the hell is Max? “It’s that good huh? I feel ya.”

“Maria!”

“Hey, you promised. But since I see you going through Max withdrawls, I’ll wait til’ you get your fix.” Maria said with an arched eyebrow and then exited the room.

I bolt to my vanity dresser and then run my fingers through my hair, then take rub my wrist on the spot where the Haiku perfume broke and then rubbed it on the crook of my neck and then above my cleavage. Then take one more glance in the mirror, looking front and back, thinking that Max is going to go absolutely ballistic when he sees me in this Cami. I took the liberty of going bra-less and since the Cami’s sheer…wait, I think I hear keys. I turn around and watch the door anxiously while I ring my wrist, with my hand, from the butterflies that were not only fluttering, but making a complete air show in my stomach, and take in a breath when I hear foot steps approaching and the door knob turning.

The door opens half way and I hold my breath. Max comes in, looking just as anxious as I was. I rush over to him, wrap my arms around his neck while he wrapped his around my waist, and exchanged the most anxious kiss I have felt yet.

“I missed you.” Max whispers before kissing me again, this time picking me up a little off my tippy toes and walked backwards towards the bed, still with out lips and tongues entwined.

“Uh, I missed you too.” I breath out before his lips cover mine again as the back of my knees hit the edge of the bed, and feel Max struggling to unbutton my jeans. “How was work?” I ask as I take off his clip on tie and begin unbuttoning his shirt.

“Long.” Max answered finally done with my jeans and dropping them down along with my underwear and crotched down to the side of me and kissed his way back up and stopped when he noticed my Cami. “Were you wearing that all day?” He asked a little worried, since he could see my breast perfectly through it.

“Yeah, but I had a jacket on.” I answer taking off his shirt and then tackling his pants, that had one more obstacle than mine, a belt. “If you don’t like it, then you can take it off.” I say with mischief.

“In that case, I hate it.” Max answered impishly and grabbed the ends of my Cami and swooped it off me in one try. I drop his pants down with his boxer briefs and sit underneath the covers, with Max following my lead and laying on top of me. “I really missed you.”

“I can tell.” I giggled when I feel his arousal poking into me.

“That’s not what I meant. I meant I’ve missed you…this whole month…not talking you, not telling you I love you.” Max said lowering his head in the crook of my neck and taking in a breath.

“Max, I had to wait 8hrs for you…8hrs and 6 minutes actually. I love you, but can we please save the pillow talk for later? Right now all I want to do is feel this.” I say, pulling Max completely inside me and tilting my head back from pleasure. “Mmm.” I moan and feel Max’s lips trail along my neck as he rocks back and forth slowly, trying to get the friction to build up. “Mmm, Max I need you to do it harder.” I pleaded.

“Okay.” Max whispered in a growl and began to thrust in me as hard as possible.

“Uh.” I moan throwing my head back and feeling him kiss on me, bouncing when our privacy met up in a powerful thrust and collision. Again I get the flash of Max singing, but can’t hear what it is. But the flash clears my mind when I can’t help but think that the missionary position has become my favorite position. To see Max cat stretched on top of me…in me… pumping inside me. It was a vision for the luckiest woman in the the world…his woman…and in his eyes, that woman was me.

I gasp when I feel him go into a cobra position so he could rest on his elbows, kissing me as frequent as he could. “Mmm.” He panted as he drank from my lips. “Liz.” Max whispered and hooked my leg to get better concealment inside me.

The rhythm was flawless. Just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, Max surprises me with a turn or a wave that sends my mesmerizing ache off the walls, making me rake my nails down his back as suck on his lower lip to her him hiss in arousal.

This man has spell binded me with his miraculous voodoo of unearthly love and passion. Everything about him is seducing. His smell. His body. His smile. His laugh. Even his alien side. Nothing about him failed to amount to that. This erotic feeling, feeling better by the minute.

“Ah.” I gasp when I feel him thrust too hard.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry.” Max apologized out of breath.

“It’s okay.” I say pressing my lips against his and moved to the side, guiding him to lay on his back. I climb on top of him and reconnect our love. My hands are at our sides and I begin a belly dancers wave, causing Max to hiss but continue to watch our connection curiously. I’m assuming I’m the first girl he sees completely naked or Tess flashed herself to him in the visions…I really hope she didn’t. I kind of enjoy being Max’s firsts. His first kiss, his first girlfriend. His first ex-girlfriend. First one to find out about them. The first to make love to him and the first to be healed by him. And I plan to add a lot of firsts to that list.

I could actually feel Max get more aroused when he watched us, but his curious gaze stopped when he proceeded to be more attentive to me. “You can watch.” I say with a smile and get one in exchange.

“I’m suppose to be looking at you and you’re suppose to be looking at me.” Max answers with an alluring smirk.

“You were looking at me.” I answer with a pine and bit my lower lip connecting my chin with my shoulder feeling an erotic tingle forming inside of me.

“Believe me when I say I’ll have time to look at ‘all’ of you, cause I plan to be doing this for a while, okay?” He asked me as he held my breast and squeezing them in a yearning sensation.

“Mmm hmm.” I hum and place my hands on his knees to speed up my rhythm, tilting my head back and feel my chest poke out in the air, feeling Max roam all over me. I took one of his hands, made it skim my breast, and then took one of his finger and stuck it in my mouth and sliding it out as slowly and as sexy as possible, hearing Max hiss in craving. The sensation between us was becoming too enjoyable to hold back. And I didn’t plan to hold back either. I moan loud causing one of my side lamps to break, and then without notice the door swings open and we both snap our heads to the doors direction and see Zan standing in the door way, stunned to see me naked and most of all stunned to see doing it with Max. “Zan!” I yell and cover myself quickly.

“What the hell are you doing here?” Max question in aggravation sitting up and wrapping his arms around me, while I rested my head on his shoulder and looked away from Zan.

“I’m sorry.” Zan apologized.

“What’s going…what the hell?” Michael questioned when he heard noises. “Again?”

“Get out!” Max ordered.

“Sorry.” Zan apologized again and then turned at his heel, high-tailing out of the room. Leaving Max and me only to stare at Michael.

“You too.” Max ordered.

“Liz, get dressed. And get to my room now. We’re gonna have a little talk.”

“What’s going on?” Maria questioned but then saw Max and me on the bed, assuming on her own what was going on. “Hello Pamela and Tommy.”

“Liz talk.” Michael reminded and then wrapped his arm around Maria.

“Okay.” I answer and see him look at me skeptically before he leaves with Maria.

“So, are you gonna go now?” Max questioned still holding me tight.

“Are we finished?” Liz asked with an arched eyebrow.

“Not even close.” Max answered with a sly smile.

“Then I’m not going anywhere.” I purr and push Max lightly to lay down.

Sorry guys. I was going to post last night but it was raining and the power went out.

Have so many people to thank:

Icequeen. LovinGuerin2Much. Sarah Whitman.

And of course Lizard_Queen who made my week when she nominated me for "Most Improved Writer", "Best Author of a CC Fic", "Best Series" and "Most Underpraised Writer".

Thanks so much guys.

r0swell_dreamer wrote:So what's up with Zan? He most likely heard them from outside their door, so why did he walk in?

He heard Liz scream and then the lamp shatter, so he assumed she was in trouble. He was there to talk to her about the mind warps so he assumed the worst.

Thanks. Usually my nookie scenes are limited to one and that's it. But this is my first trilogy, so what better way to celebrate than w/ some hot alien nookie scenes?

Chapter 5


Liz’s Room
9:45 A.M.

“Max!” I moan when I feel my walls of erotic sanity about to cave in. I continued my sway on top of him, feeling the shivering passion spread all over me and travel to my tightening toes. Max held on to my sides and continued guiding me so both our bodies could erupt in our superhuman gloss simultaneously.

“Uh.” I gasp, feeling the quake take over my legs and finally surrender to the sensation when I could no longer maintain my rhythm. Max sat up to hold on to me before I collapsed. I rest my head on his shoulder and he rested his back against the pillows and head board.

“Mmm.” I hum as I try control my rapid breathing.

“Yeah.” Max answered, heaving just as I was as he stroked my back gently.

“Mmm.” I repeat weakly.

“You said that already.” Max enlightened me sounding just as powerless as I did.

“Oh.” I answer and plant a small kiss on his shoulder.

“Are you falling asleep?” Max questioned when I didn’t say anything else.

“Mmm hmm.” I answer. “Are you?”

“Yeah. Have to regain my energy so I can go kick Zan and Michael’s asses for barging in here.”

“It was an accident.” I sigh with a light giggle.

“I’m sure it was on Michael’s part.” Max answered unconvinced that Zan’s interruption was purely accidental. “What was Zan doing here anyways?” Max questioned.

“He probably came because Ava asked him to.” I answer with a mental shrug, too tired to be embarrassed at the moment.

“Why?” Max asked confused.

“Oh, because I was talking to her and Kyle about the mind warps…”

“They know?” Max asked with a look of worry and shame.

“Not what they’re about. Just that you’re still getting mind warped.” I assure him and then continue to explain the thing that worries me the most. ”Max, Tess could kill you…if she keeps mind warping you.” I inform him as I lower my head.

“Yeah, I know.” Max answered sadly as he brushed my cheek with the back of his fingers.

“Maybe you should talk to Zan and…”

“Uh, I don’t think there’s going to be much talking if I see him again, unless you count my fist ramming into his face talking?” Max threatened with amusement.

“Max.” I say in a warning tone and then look up at him. “The suggestion of the day, for blocking mind warps, seems to be meditation. So I want you to practice meditation with Kyle.”

“What? Do I have to?” Max whined.

“Do you have any other alternatives? Oh, that’s right. You do.” I ask with my eyebrow arched, recognizing his only options were to talk to Zan or practice meditation with Kyle.

“I guess not.”



Michael’s Room

“Michael?” I call knocking on his door that was half covered by a “High Voltage” sign. “Michael? Are you in here?” I ask as I poke my head in and scan the room that looks like it harbors Siamese twins. Two complete styles. Heavy metal meets Sara McLachlan. Two-face, from Batman, could live here. I close the door and assume that Michael left, unable to keep waiting for me while I finished my, uh, business with Max.



The Crashdown

I walk downstairs with the biggest smile plastered on my face. I finally got to release some of the stored up sexual frustration I had building up for a month, “some” being the hinting term. But I guess we’ll have to keep trying to release the rest of my tension…a job that I think is undoable, in a matter of speaking.

I push past the aqua door, after waving ‘hello’ to Kyle, who was slaving away over a hot grill and stopped dead on my tracks when I saw Michael sitting in the first booth. My smile flips upside down, I bite my lower lip in worry and embarrassment and move slowly to sit in the booth across from him.

“Um, hi, Michael.” I greet, feeling a nervous tickle in the pit of my stomach, as I sit down.

“Don’t ‘hi Michael’ me.” Michael huffs. “Where’s Max?”

“Upstairs.” I answer with my head lowered. There was an awkward silence for a few seconds. Seconds that seemed like hours and then Michael finally spoke.

“Look Liz. I’m just gonna say this, so shut up for a minute.” He exceeds. I just nod and watch him twist the silver band around his thumb and begin to talk, looking at me as little as he could. “I know I’m not blood…I never really had that luxury, you know. But I do have responsibilities. Isabel…Max…they’re my responsibility. And Max…I was made to protect him…and I knew…even before you did…that you would be a part of him...a part that I’d protect too.” Michael confessed as tears collected in my eyes. “I do it because I have to…instead of giving me another job, I feel like you gave me a whole new family…blood…you’re like the little sister I never had, so I hope you understand what I mean when I say….“NO SEX!”

“Michael!” I gasp in shock.

“Liz.” He calls me sarcastically.

“Michael.”

“Liz. I didn’t want to do this. But you forced me to.” Michael told me in a threatening tone as he searched his pants pocket and pulled out a wrinkled pamphlet.

“Oh, no. Michael. No.” I say embarrassed as I notice the pamphlet is a guide to help parents talk about teens having sex. Please tell me this isn’t happening. Please tell me I’m not having “the talk” with Michael Guerin. The James Dean of rebellious guys is trying to talk to me about having sex with his best friend! I could die right now. Where’s the alien invasion when you need it?

“Shut it.” Michael ordered and then opened up the pamphlet in front of him, trying to smooth out the wrinkles with his jittering fingers. ”Uh, first thing, ‘do you feel rushed with engaging in sexual activities with your partner?’” He read with a shaky voice. I feel so embarrassed. I just drop my head down on the booths’ table and bang my forehead lightly on the table top, dreading this conversation even exists. “Liz?”

“No. I don’t.” I answer irritated, looking up at him. Come to think about it, I think I do most of the pressuring.

“Is your partner attentive to your needs?” Michael mumbled as he read on.

“Yes.” I answer in a dreamy tone as I bite my lip and lightly sway as I do, but then notice Michael staring at me with big brother eyes and then cough out my dream. “Uh, I mean yes. Yes, he does.” I quickly say trying to appear serious.

“What’s going on?” Maria asked curiously as she kissed Michael on the cheek and then sat next to him when he scooted over.

“Just the most embarrassing moment in my life.” I answer sarcastically and then cover my face with my hands.

“Really? I thought that was upstairs when everyone walked in on you and Max, knocking Pam and Tommy’s sex tape into the number two spot.” Maria chuckled by her self getting an unamused stare from both me and Michael. “Uh, right. Uh, ask her number 8…’does your partner hurt you sexually when you are engaged in sexual intercourse?’”

“Maria!” I shriek and quickly hug my legs to cover myself, feeling very naked at the moment and very red.

“Yeah, don’t answer that. It’s a trick question. Maybe you like when Moon Doggie hurts you.” Maria smirked.

“Maria!” Both me and Michael yell.

“Hey, that’s what happens when I don’t get much needed info when I ask for it.” Maria shrugs and looks onto the pamphlet again with intrigue.

“I can not believe this is happening.” I declare as I cover my face, trying to hide my scarlet face.

“Back to what I was saying.” Michael spoke. “Are you practicing a method of safe sex?” Michael asked. It was like every word he said was in slow motion and in the loudest volume. Safe sex. No! We haven’t!

“Michael, can we please not have this conversation?” I plead trying to avoid his question so he wouldn’t pick up on how nervous I got when he asked for it.

“Are you going to stop having sex?”

“Uh…no.” I answer in a sheepish whisper. Hey, I’m nervous. Not insane.

“So, are we talkin' Trojans or pills?” Michael asked continuing with the interrogation.

“Michael.” I whine as I join my hands and plead.

“Or flavors?” Maria added with a wink and a gun.

“Maria!”

“Hey, Liz?” Ava called out as she walked over to use with a coffee pot in her hand. Saved by the look alike.

“Yeah?” I answer, almost unable to hide the relief of seeing her.

“What happen wit’ Zan? He broke without sayin’ nothin’.”

“Oh, um, he kind of walked in on me and Max…so you know.” I try to hint off with my eyes what happened and see that she catches my drift.

“Ouch.” She says with a smirk. “ When I get home later I’ll talk to him.” Ava assured me and then returned to one of her tables to refill a truckers coffee cup.

“You know Max is gonna kill him right?” Michael informed me with a entertained smirk. I just give Michael an unamused look and see Isabel walking in with shopping bags.

“Hey.” She greets with an outstretched smile. “Did you get my message?” She asks me with her ponytail swinging as she talked.

“Uh, yeah and I don’t think shopping counts as work related.” I tell her with a quizzical expression, not use to playing boss yet.

“Uh, trust me sweetie..it does.” Isabel answered with a cool tone and then pointed with her head for us to follow her to the back. I give Michael and Maria a skeptical look and then slide out the booth and follow Isabel to the back.



Back Room

“So, is Max here?” Isabel asks as she places the bags the bags neatly on the couch that was by the wooden stairs.

“Yeah, he’s upstairs. Probably out of his shower.” I answer shyly.

“Great, so when I’m done here I can go upstairs and kill him.” Isabel announced indifferently and began digging in the biggest bag. I just shake my head.

“That seems to be the theme of the day.” I answer softly.

“So, anyways.” Isabel continues, not listening to a word I said. “ A week ago, when I was putting on this hideous uniform, it dawned on me. Why? Why am I punishing myself by actually wearing this?”

“They’re not that bad.” I answer. I’ve gotten used to them, years before they ever had to.

“Yeah, maybe in bizarro world, but in Isabel’s world we do not look like Mary Ann.” Isabel said humoring me.

“This is some chic thing isn’t it?” Michael questioned and a smile from Isabel. “Right, well, I’m outta here. Got some Z’s to catch up on. Liz. We’ll continue this later.” Michael reminds me and then jogs up the wooden stairs. I definitely need to talk to Maria about this.

“Okay, back to me.” Isabel said snapping her fingers in front of my face to get me out of my trans. “So, I went to the mall, talked to a friend of mine, and then Viola!” She said pulling out the Crashdown’s uniform meets Linkin Parks re-animation project.

“Frmp.” I make a fart noise when I laugh. “Isabel. You expect us to wear this?” I ask looking over the new uniform. “We can’t wear this.”

“Why not?” Maria asked.

“Because…guys if we wear this, it’s going to be pick up line after pick up line.” I warn. Just imagining it now. Some trucker ho-joe being a pig, calls me sugar, sucks on his teeth, and smacks me on the butt as I leave. And Max? I can just imagine his reaction. If I thought he was over protective now…

“No offense, Liz, but that’s kind of the point. You get guys hot. The order everything on the menu just to get you to serve them and business is sky rocketing.” Isabel tried to convince me unable to hold back her enthusiastic smile.

“I don’t know.”

“Oh, come on Liz.” Maria said, wrapping her arm around my shoulder. “This is our Coyote Ugly. You can’t stand there and tell me you don’t like them. So stop being so cautious and start being more limitless.” Maria cheered nodding to Isabel, who returned the nod.

“Ugh, fine, okay.” I finally give in and get sandwiched by Maria and Isabel.

“Hey, as much as I hate to break up the girl on girl on girl action that’s going on here, we do have customers.” Kyle announced waving the spatula as he spoke and then returned to flipping burgers.

“Okay so when do we get to wear them?” Maria questioned giddy as she rubbed her hands in mischief.

“Tomorrow.” I answer.

“Great. I can survive one more day.” Isabel thanked and then climbed the first two steps that lead upstairs. “Too bad Max won’t.” She declared and ran up the stairs.

“Poor Moon Doggie.” Maria says in a giggle as she shakes her head.

“Maria?”

“Yeah?”

“Um, listen. I was hoping we could talk when Isabel gets back .” I say, as I fidget with my trembling fingers. I guess Maria noticed my fear and than nodded with concern.

“Yeah. Sure.”

“Thanks.”



The DeLuca House


’SLAM’

“Whoa. Some one’s pissed.” Rath acknowledged when Zan stormed in and slammed the door behind him.

“I ain’t in the mood.” Zan warned cracking his knuckles.

“Yeah. No shit Sherlocke.” Rath snorted and took in another drink from his cup. “So what happened?” Rath asked but got a cold stare from Zan instead. “It’s cool. I mean you can tell your boys, the Duke and his pimp, since you’re part of the family right.” Rath shrugged and then buddy-smacked Zan in the back, triggering a flash and getting an eye-full of Liz naked, having sex with Max. “Yo! You saw the Duke and his bitch banging?” Rath questioned in an entertained surprised.

Zan just cold stared Rath, releasing the intensity of the moment triggered him to transmit a flash of what he witnessed to Rath unintentionally and then bolted to their room.

Leaving Rath with an aroused interest.

Chapter 6

Back Room

“Alright, I’ll take it from here.” Isabel told Maria when she came down the wooden steps in uniform. “Oh, and Michael told me to give you this.” Isabel informed her as she handed her a slip of paper.

“What is it?” Maria question when she took the paper and scanned through it.

“I don’t know. I’m not your secretary.” Isabel shrugged and move to her employee locker to get her antennas and apron and then turn to look at Maria. “But apparently Michael is.” She laughed and pushed through the aqua doors and began taking orders.

“What is it?” I question curiously as I look over her shoulder, making out a phone number and an address, but unable to make out the rest from Michael’s crappy writing.

“It’s a message from the court house. I have to go tomorrow at 10 A.M. for my emancipation hearing.” Maria said in a cheer. “You’re coming right?”

“Of course.” I answer erasing all doubt in her mind.

“Oh, so what did you want to talk to me about?” Maria asked, remembering how earlier I told her I needed to talk to her.

“Oh, uh. I really don’t know how to say this.” I reply as I move to sit on the couch.

“Come on. This is me. Just say it.” Maria cheered as she sat beside me and tried to see my hidden expression from my lowered head.

“Maria, I might be pregnant.” I answer quickly and see it leaves her with her eyes wide and her mouth open.

“What?” Maria finally chokes out.

“I mean...I don’t know. Maybe.” I say as I stand up and begin pacing in front of her.

“Liz, did you forget to use protection once?” Maria asks with hope. I turn around and look at her and with just that look she determines my answer. “Uh uh.”

“It all happened so fast...we never had a chance to...” I tried to explain but it all sounded like your stereotypical excuses you hear in Sex Ed.

“Did you tell Max?” Maria asks, still not dropping her shocked expression.

Max. I can’t even begin to imagine how’d I’d explain to him the possibility that I might be pregnant with his baby. His baby? Is it going to be human or alien? God, the questions never stop.

“Liz?” Maria repeats. I just shake my head ‘no’ and look at her, waiting for something else...some words of comfort. “Can’t you just touch your stomach and like get a premonition of Junior?” Maria asked instead. I forget. I’m the one that’s clairvoyant, so I shouldn’t expect Maria to read my mind.

“No. I’ve thought about this too much, so it’ll probably affect my vision.” I answered. Which was true. The thought of me being pregnant circled my head, I doubt if I could tell if I was thinking or getting a premonition.

“So we have to find out if you are or if you’re not before we panic.” Maria advised as she went to her locker to get her purse. “Come on.” Maria said wrapping her arm around me as we walk out the door.


Front

“Is everything okay?” Isabel questioned when she saw my pale expression and Maria guiding me through the restaurant.

“Yeah. It’s fine.” Maria answered and opened the front door.


Convenient Store

“There are so many.” I say all wide-eyed when I look at all the pregnancy test.

“Here. Take this one.” Maria suggested handing me a “E.P.T. Certainty” test. “It seems to be a hit in the girls bathroom back in school.” Maria commented with a very dry since of humor.

I can’t help but feel offended. I’m one of those girls now too. What if I don’t finish school? I’ll be a waitress all my life...and what’s Max going to say? Ugh, I guess that’s the least of my worries right now. My main concern should be if the baby’s human or like his father. Wow, that sounds too weird. Max. Father.

“Liz? Are you okay?” Maria asked, snapping me out of my quizzical trans.

“Um, yeah. I guess.” I answer and look down at the box again to read the instructions.

“I’m sorry Liz. I didn’t mean to imply...”

“It’s okay, Maria. I know you didn’t mean it towards me.” I say with a sad shrug and then move towards the counter and see Agnes working the register, and can’t help but feel bad we fired her.

“Uh, oh. Bitch alert.” Maria whispered when she saw Agnes too. “Here give it to me. I’ll buy it.”

“No, Maria, it’s okay. If I really am pregnant, I can’t hide the baby because of what she might say.” I boldly state and place my test on the counter.

“Well, well, well.” Agnes spoke with a raised eyebrow.

“Hi, Agnes.” I say forcefully trying to hold back every insult I wanted to say to her since she worked in the Crashdown and place the rectangular box on the counter.

“Can’t say I didn’t see this day coming.” Agnes sneered when she picked up the box. “Gonna need a price check.” Agnes said mischievously and adjusted the mic to begin to speak. “Price check on....” Just as she started talking, the mic sparkled and caused both me and Agnes to flinch.

When I turn to see Maria, she had a guilty face as she scratched the back of her ear and rocked a little in amusement. I give her a warning look and she holds out her hand in a ‘what’ position.

“It’s $16. 49.” Maria announced. “If you want I can get the sku number for you.” Maria asked sarcastically, while I bit my lip in amusement. Agnes gave her an irritated smirk and then scanned the bar code, seeing the price and description light up in green on the registers monitor.

“$18.48.” Agnes charged when she added the tax.

“Here’s a twenty.” Maria announced, handing Agnes a twenty dollar bill. “Keep the change and maybe you can buy a new attitude with it.” Maria snorted.

I drop my jaw in shock of the comment and watch Maria snatch the bag Agnes put the test in and then pull me out the store giggling.


The Crashdown

“Oh, my God Maria that was amazing.” I compliment as we walk in the store.

“I know. It was like so exhilarating.” Maria looked up trying to figure out a word to describe how she felt.

“Good to see you guys are in a better mood.” Isabel points out as she circled around us with two plates of hamburgers with baskets of Orbit Rings on the side.


Crashdown’s Bathroom

“Okay done. You can turn around now.” I tell Maria who was facing the corner humming to the music the restaurant had on so she wouldn’t hear me pee. I put the tests on the side of the sink and proceed to wash my hands and the outer part of the white stick.

“Now all we got to do is wait.” Maria said as she looked at the face of her wrist watch.


Front of the Restaurant

“Rath?” Isabel questioned from behind the register when she saw Rath come in for the first time in a month and scan the room, as if he were looking for someone.

“Yo.” He greeted without looking at her.

“Uh, are you going to sit down?” Isabel questioned, preparing on to a menu, when he didn’t move to a table.

“Who else is workin’ today?” He asked straight to the point still without looking at her. “Is Liz workin’ today?”

“Uh, no. Just me and Ava.” Isabel answered rudely, now being annoyingly interested in why he would ask. “Why?” Rath just looked Isabel up and down and then turned on his heel and exited the restaurant.

“Hm?” Isabel huffed, standing with her hand on her hip, left wondering why he would ask for Liz. She dug in her apron and pulled out her cell and hitting # 1 and then send, seeing the cell screen dialing Max’s cell.

‘Hello?’

“Max. Come down here.” Isabel ordered and then hung up her phone without giving Max a chance to debate.


Crashdown Bathroom

“This bathroom so small.” Maria cursed in a panic, after waiting impatiently the first 7 minutes of the test, and opened the door to get air and end her claustrophobia, but ended up opening it precisely when Max was coming down the stairs and spotted me sitting on the edge of the cover toilet top with my heel of my hands holding my chin and my elbows on my knees as I waited panic.

“Max?” I say surprised, standing up straight when I see him walking to us and I worriedly look to the sink where everything was placed.

“What are you...” Max trails off when he peeks in the bathroom and sees the opened “E.P.T.” box and the used stick on the sink. “What’s going on?” He asked when I lowered my head and bit my lip.

Chapter 7

Song: Smack My Bitch Up by The Prodigy
Song: Blue Monday by Flunk


Maria’s House


“Fuck!” Zan yells as he punches his punching bag and maneuvers around it in a hop.

Change my pitch up
Smack my bitch up

He takes a couple of jabs and gets a flash of Liz and Max’s hands all over her.

Change my pitch up
Smack my bitch up

His jabs become more powerful and ends up kicking the bag.

Change my pitch up
Smack my bitch up

“Someone’s angry.”

“Ava? What the hell are you doin’ here? Thought you worked?” Zan questioned as he continued to spar with the punching bag.

“Uh, I’m on lunch. What’s wrong?” She asked as she sat down on his bed and looked at him invitingly.

“Thought the rat pack would be trickin’ already.” Zan huffed taken another jab at the bag then moving to the corner to remove the Velcro wraps he had wrapped around his knuckles.

“Uh uh.”

“Walked in on the Duke doin’ his lady.” Zan confessed, taken a sip of his Gatorade, trying to calm down his rapid breathing from the adrenaline that was still pumping.

“Liz and Max were...”

“Banging.” Zan yelled a little annoyed and then felt her hand on his shoulder, making him turn to look at him.

“I know what you must be feeling right now. To love someone and can’t be with them.”

“Ava...I...” Zan didn’t know where to begin with explaining. Ava had proved such loyalty to him and he never even acknowledged her as a woman. The hell he feels must be what she must’ve endured all those years in New York. “I...” and just as he was about to explain another flash of Liz popped in his head. Her moan from pleasure...from being intimate with Max instead of him.


How does it feel
To treat me like you do
When you’ve laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are

I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how do I feel

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They will turn away no more

And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I’m quite sure that you’ll tell me
Just how I should feel today


“What is it?”

“Can’t get it out of my head.” Zan agonized as he placed the heel of his hand between his eyes and winced.

“Well, maybe...what you need is someone to help you forget.” She said as she took down his hand and place two small kisses on his lap.

“Maybe.” Zan answered and followed her down on his bed.


I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn’t for your misfortunes
I’d be a heavenly person today

And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how should I feel

Now I stand here waiting

I thought I told you to leave me
While I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold
(grows cold, grows cold, grows cold)



The Crashdown
Back Room

“Liz?” Max called out to me after picking up the E.P.T. box and then placing it back down.

“Uh, maybe I should...” Maria began to say, backing up little by little, but then stopped when she saw my look of despair.

“Just give us a minute Maria. But you can come back.” Max answered.

“Uh, okay.” Maria answered and moved into the kitchen with Kyle.

“Liz?” Max called out to me again.

“I wanted to make sure before I worried you.” I finally answered.

“Worry me?” Max repeated confused. “Liz, what happens to you is my business. I want to know, especially if it’s something as amazing as this.” My head shots up when I hear his words. ‘Amazing?’

“So you’re not mad?” I ask playing with my fingers.

“Mad?” Max repeated surprised. “How can I be mad? I love you. Every part of you. Every part that I discover and every part that we create.” He said brushing my stomach. “I’m here for you no matter what happens.” Max assures me as he wraps his arms around my waist and rocks me softly for comfort.

“Oh, my God. That was so frickin’ sweet.” Maria gasped in tears.

“Shut up.” I warn to her with a smile and then look up at Max, who surprises me with sweet kisses.

“Trying to make this test positive, huh?” Maria comments with playful sarcasm.

Both me and Max smile and then he graces me with another kiss.

“So when do I find out if I’m gonna be a father?” Max whispered in my ear.

“In two minutes, Romeo.” Maria answered.

Damn Maria and her bionic hearing. The three of us huddle over the stick and watch the tab anxiously awaiting the results.


Michael’s Room

‘Ring. Ring.’

“Phone.” Michael whined with the side of his face pressed up against his pillow and a little drool on the corner of his mouth, when he heard Liz’s phone ringing.

‘Ring. Ring.’

“Phone.” Michael whined louder.

‘Ring. Ring.’

“Somebody get the phone!” Michael yelled, turning on his back, fighting not to open his eyes so he could get back to sleep.

‘Ring. Ring.’

“That’s it!” Michael yelled, shaking the covers off and storming to Liz’s room.


Liz’s Room

‘Ring. Ring.’

“What?!?” Michael yelled when he answered the phone.

‘Maxwell Evans.’

“No, what do you want?” Michael questioned rudely to the raspy voice.

‘Ahh, so this must be his second.’

The word ‘second’ made Michael’s heart beat to the maximum volume and the sleep he felt disappear. “Who the hell is this?” Michael questioned.

‘Rath. Rath. Rath. Oh, it’s Michael now. Michael Guerin.’

“Look, either tell me who it is or hear the dial tone man. It’s up to you.” Michael threatened.

‘Spoken like a true soldier. But you got my letter.’

“What letter?” Michael questioned.

‘Soon. Very soon.’

‘Click...booooooooooooooooooooooo’

Michael stood bewildered for a moment, listening to the dial tone. Soon? The only place that came to mind was their ship, a month ago.

“Max.” Michael called out softly, hanging up the phone and then headed downstairs in search of him.


Back Room

“There you are!” Isabel exclaimed when she saw Max in the bathroom holding me with Maria beside us. “Max something’s going on here.”

“What?” Max questioned when he finally heard Isabel’s voice.

“Max! Haven’t you heard a word I said?” Isabel questioned aggravated by his distraction.

“What is it Isabel?” Max asked with a sigh.

“Oh, nothing. Just thought I’d give you the heads up that Rath was just looking for Liz.” Isabel informed him. Max jerked his head to look at Isabel when he heard my name being mentioned in the same sentence with Rath’s.

“What?” I question.

“Did he say what he wanted?” Max questioned, trying to hide how riled up he was.

“No, but from the way he was looking, it can’t be good.” Isabel answered.

“Isabel? Ava? This food isn’t gonna serve itself.” Kyle yelled out the order window. Isabel rolled her eyes and pushed passed the aqua door.

“What do you...”

“Maxwell!” Michael yelled, interrupting Maria’s question. “Maxwell we got a problem.”

“That’s not all we got.” Maria added. Max, Michael and me turned to look at her and see her holding up the test. “You’re pregnant!” Maria announced with a smile.

"You're what?" Michael questioned in disbelief.

Lizard_Queen wrote:What is it with Liz Parker?

Why is it that basically every alien male has a thing for her, pardoning Michael who is like her brother. Why do these testosterone filled boys feel the need to get jealous whenever some other guy so much as looks at her?

I was talking to Icequeen about this earlier. Rath doesn't want Liz in the way Max does or not even the way Zan wants her. He's just doing it to fuck with Max. Challenging the boss man. Especially after what happened at the pod chambers in FBBL. Now Zan. He's complicated. And his intentions won't be explained until later.

As for the jealousy part, Michael and Max never really had a girl friend, actually the never had one. Or friends other than themselves ( Mx / Is / Mi ). Now, they have girlfriends that go heavy on the nookie and can blast you to kingdom come. That sounds reasonable enough to get protective over. LOL.

Was that with the E.P.T? I don't have any experience with that. I try to make things as realistic as I can, from what I know. And all I got from the Walgreens website was that it was "Error Proof", so I'd figure it'll take longer than normal test if it's concrete.

Nothing good.

As much as she can, but you had a YAHTZEE when we talked.

I think "Boy" or "Girl" is not as big as the dilemma:

"Human" or "Alien"

Hmmm? Maybe.

Arianneleigh wrote:Ok so Ava was on her lunch Break, and now she is coming on to Zan? But Kyle was in the Crashdown and he said “Isabel? Ava?

“I know what you must be feeling right now. To love someone and can’t be with them.”

"another flash of Liz popped in his head. Her moan from pleasure...from being intimate with Max instead of him. "

“Can’t get it out of my head.” Zan agonized as he placed the heel of his hand between his eyes and winced.

“Well, maybe...what you need is someone to help you forget.” She said as she took down his hand and place two small kisses on his lips.

This seems more like the work of an Evil twin . . . Flashes that Zan can't get rid of . . . an offer to help through sex, hmmm not the Ava we know and love more the Tess we love to hate.

But thats just my theory. Am I right?

Um, can you say: YAHTZEE!!!!

Lizard_Queen wrote:Now, we never really knew if Nesado is dead or not. Sure, Rath said he killed him, but can we really trust some freaky Michael look alike?? It coudl be the handy work of Nesado and Tess... or even Khivar and Tess. Just because they killed him and everything, doesn't mean someone doesn't have ways to bring him back... they did it to the royal four after all.

Crappy theory, i'm aware of this.

Hmm, wouldn't that be a twist?

Lizard_Queen wrote:How is Michael gonna handle the reaction to the pregnancy. I'm pretty sure Max may be getting a death threat from him saying that if he doesn't look after both Liz and the baby, Max is a dead man. It would be kinda funny, and extreemly Michael if he's opening line was "Can you fix it? So your not pregnant?"

Have you been peeking in my brain?

Chapter 8

Quote from "Baby, It's You"


Back Room

“She’s pregnant.” Maria repeated.

“Yeah I heard you.” Michael snapped and then looked over to Max in disappointment. I know he was probably thinking Max is their King, the one they follow, their leader. He’s not suppose to be careless. He’s not suppose to make mistakes. But Max is human too.

“Wow, Michael. Try to contain your happiness for me.” Max commented sarcastically. Poor Max. I have the support of my best friend and his just stares at him like he had just insulted him or something.

I shifted my weight nervously. For some odd reason, now I feel like I disappointed Michael, which is weird, he’d be the last person I’d want to impress. Okay, maybe not the last, but definitely not the first.

“We can’t have a baby here Max.” Michael advised sternly.

“Why not?” Max quickly asked vexed by Michael’s reaction.

“Maxwell, if this thing comes out green, with four fingers and three eyes, that puts a major cramp in our hide-in-plain-sight strategy.” Michael answered roughly.

“This thing?” I question hurt, feeling my throat sore from the urge of wanting to cry. Michael closed his eyes, realizing what he just said and passed his hand over his face in frustration.

“Liz. That’s not what I meant.” Michael answered holding out his hand by his face while the other was at his side.

“No, what you meant was I can’t have this baby because it would put you guys at risk. Well, news flash Michael, I’m not exactly my self lately. None of us are. So it puts us all at risk.” I point out bitterly, biting down my trembling lip, and feeling Max’s hand stroking my back for comfort. “Something normal finally happens to me. Something amazing. A baby! My baby. Max’s baby!” I soon find my self yelling and rambling, seriously aggravated by Michael’s thoughtless comment. I look to my side, take a breath and compose myself before I look back to Michael. “A life is growing inside me and I have no idea if it’s a human life or an alien life. And you know what? I don’t care. This is my baby. And I don’t care if I have to stay locked in my room for an eternity...I’m having this baby.” I finalize calmly but firmly, just hoping Michael challenges me so I can send him flying.

“It’s not what I meant.” Michael repeated in a sigh.

“What did you mean then?” Max asked, sounding just as pissed off as I was.

“Maxwell, Liz walking around with the heir to the throne is like she’s walking around with a target on her back. It’s dangerous. Not just for us, but for her as well and the baby.”

“And you think I don’t know this?” Max questioned. “It’s my family, Michael.” Max proclaims in the most fragile pleading tone that made my heart plummet. I have supplied Max with another reason for him to feel guilty and worry…our baby would be in danger because of who he is, yet again. “We’re having the baby Michael.” Max finalizes.

“Well…then I’m here for you.” Michael assured him, realizing there’s no changing our minds.

“Thanks. That means a lot.” Max admits and slaps Michael’s hand in a manly hand shake and hug that ended with a loud pat in the back and a squeeze of the shoulder for support.

“Sorry Liz.” Michael apologized to me and leaned down to hug me. “I’m happy for you.” He whispered in my ear and then pulled away.

“Thank you.” I answer and then wrap my arms around Max’s waist, feeling his arm wrap around mine as his other hand was tucked away in his pocket.

“So what’s the plan?” Michael asked, holding his arm up so Maria could wrap her arms around him as well, which she did.

“Um, I guess watch her. If we see anything abnormal happening…”

“Like her walking around with a baby tomorrow?” Maria added. I just looked at her pensively. That statement alone triggered like a million questions in my head. I knew the basics, from what Max jotted down when he collected all the alien artifacts. If I was pregnant with an alien baby, my pregnancy would last a month, and if it’s not, I’m to endure the ups and downs of a nine month pregnancy.

“Speaking of abnormal.” Michael vocalized. “Just got a mysterious phone call that had death written all over it. Swear-a-God, man. It felt like I was talking to the frickin’ Grim Reaper.”

“From who? Do you know?” Max asked in persistent concern.

“No. But I can tell you is the same guy that threw the rock through your window.” Michael warned.

Suddenly, all the worries I had a month ago came flooding back in my head with a vengeance. I felt a sudden pressure between my eyes, my head clouded and my eyes squinted from the lights getting extremely bright all of a sudden. Before I knew it, I hear Maria gasp and feel Max trying to hold me up.

‘Liz?'

'Liz?’

I faintly hear, but can’t make out if it’s Max or Michael. I feel the cold floor on the small of my back and light taps on my cheek. What’s happening to me? Is it because I’m pregnant? Why can’t I see Max? My confusion was soon erased by the feeling of my body floating. My blurry vision comes back in time to see Max lying me on the couch that’s by the staircase.

“Liz?” Max calls out.

“Wha-what happened?” I ask as I hold my pounding head.

“You fai….aaahhh.” Max yelled as he held his head and buried his face on my stomach.

“Max! Max!” I yell in a panic as I sit up and place my arm across his back.

“Maxwell?” Michael called out as he knelt on one knee trying to get Max to tell him what was happening to him. Max slipped out of underneath my arm and curled up on the floor, holding his head in pain. I slide off the couch as well and place my hand over his, getting a electrifying flash of Tess, that caused me to jerk my hand away.

“What? What is it?” Michael questioned my action.

“It’s…it’s Tess.” I answer.

“What’s she doing to him?” Maria asked frightened as she bent down over Michael.

“I don’t know.” I answer as I run my fingers through my hair in a panic. But then remembered when she gave him the flashes before…how me emitting flashes to him of us, helped him out of Tess’s mental hold. “Michael. I can help him.”

“How?” Michael questioned looking just as frightened as I was.

“I can give him flashes…”

“Noooooo. Nooooo.” Max yelled, scaring the hell out of all three of us and caused Kyle to come running from the kitchen with his hand out, ready to fire.

“What the hell?” Kyle stated when he saw the state Max was in. Maria rushed to the aqua doors to peek out the little window to see if any of the customers outside were hearing Max scream.

“Max, I’m gonna help you.” I notify him as I reach out my hand to touch him but he crawls frantically away from me.

“No! Liz. Don’t touch me. She’ll see the baby!” Max warned. “Michael, don’t let her touch me.” He commanded grabbing onto Michael’s shirt.

“Okay. Okay.” Michael agreed and looked to me. I bite my lip, dejected, and move further away from him.

“He can’t keep yelling like that.”Maria warned as she looked out the small window and watched the customers closest to the back were looking around, trying to figure out where the noise was coming from.

“Kyle close the restaurant.” I order and look back to Max.

“How the hell am I suppose to do that? It’s noon.” Kyle pointed out.

“I have an idea.” Maria proclaimed, grabbing the dish rag from Kyle’s shoulder and moved over to Michael.

“Make this blood red.” She ordered. Michael looked at her confused but then obeyed, turning the rag into the shade of blood.

“How the hell is that gonna help?” Kyle asked skeptically as Maria walked towards him.

“Like this.” Maria spoke and stomped on Kyle’s foot.

“Ahh!” Kyle yelled in pain as Maria covered one of his hands with the rag.

“Okay, yell or I gonna have to go for the family jewels.” Maria threatened and pushed him through the aqua door.



Front

“Oh, my God. Oh my God. Isabel we have to close early. I think Kyle just cut his finger off.” Maria announced, making sure everyone heard her.

“What the hell happened?” Isabel asked checking on Kyle.

“Follow along.” Maria winked and started yelling as she left Kyle shouting in pain with Isabel. “I’m sorry Ladies and Gentleman, but we have to close. Our cook just chopped his finger off.”

“But I just placed my order.” A customer whined.

“Didn’t I just say our cook cut his finger off? How do you expect to eat if our cook doesn’t have any fingers? Up. Out.” Maria ordered as she shooed the ignorant customer out the door. “Please, don’t worry about the check. Lunch is on us.”

“Okay so what’s really up?” Isabel asked Kyle in a sly whisper.

“It’s Max.” Kyle answered.

“Max?” Isabel repeated and ran to the back.


Back Room

“Max!” Isabel exclaimed when she saw him curled up on the floor, drenched in sweat. “Oh, my God! What’s happening to him?” She asked as she knelt down beside him and Michael.

“It’s Tess.” Michael answered before I could.

“Tess?!” Isabel repeated in shock. “You can help him right? Max told me you did before.” Isabel asked me in fear of her brothers state.

“I-I can’t.” I answer, shaking my head, stunned over what was happening to him.

Even though he stopped screaming in pain he still continued to hold his head and refusing me when I tried getting closer to him.

“What? Why?” Isabel asked in angry disbelief.

“She’s pregnant.” Michael informed her.

“What?” Isabel coughed, almost swallowing her tongue from the news.

“Max doesn’t want Tess to see the baby.” He continued to explain, as it seems that I swallowed my own tongue, for how speechless I was.

“Maybe you can help him?” I suggest.

“Dream walk him?” Isabel asked, assuming that was what I meant. I nod to her and she looks to her brother, frightened , and then scoots closer to him and cups his face. “Let me in Max.” She whispered and then closed her eyes.



Maria’s House

“What are you doing here?” Rath asked as he saw Ava coming in earlier than what she was suppose to.

“Somethin’ happened at the Crash. Got to come home early.” Ava answered as she opened the refrigerator door and looked inside, unsure of what she wanted to eat.

“Word? What happened?”

“Don’t know.” She shrugged and then closed the refrigerator door.

"Man, that’s some bull. I’m gonna go see what’s up.” Rath notified her and took off. Ava shook her head in reluctance to believe the Rath was so rebellious, but shook the thought and made her way to Zan’s room.

I want to thank: LovinGuerin2Much, Icequeen, Jason's Lover, and Lizard_Queen for helping me with my writer's block.

Jason's Lover: "No sleep til Brooklyn."

LovinGuerin2Much: "Scottie don't"

Lizard_Queen: Okay I updated. I want to hear my yahoo scare the hell out of me with the loud noise that tells me you've updated.

Icequeen: YAHTZEE!

r0swell_dreamer wrote:So Ava, wasn't she just at the Crashdown working and then the next minute she's over at Maria's with Zan. If she was there she would've known about what was happening to Max and she wouldn't have gone home, she would've tried to help him instead. So what's going on with her?

Good question. What is going on with her?

Tha made me crack the hell up. Don't know why but i'm still laughing. LOL

Glad I can make you laugh. It's a term I use a lot. I have a little nephew, so I had to find a way to swear w/o teaching him the actual bad words.

Lizard_Queen wrote:Is Ava going to go into Zan's room and see that Tess is still there? Or has she feld so she could warp Max? Because the images of them together that shes trying to send him may have actually been her and Zan...

You'll find out in this chapter.

Lizard_Queen wrote:Anyway... Please help Max. Dont let Tess know about that baby, which i have now named Fred if its a boy, and Fredina if its a girl (don't ask)

No dice. LOL J / K. Fred? Why do I get a sense you watch Angel? I don't but I know that's a characters name on the show.

Lizard_Queen wrote:Either Nesado or Khivar are still alive, and they're helping Tess, or its some other new evil guy whos also working with Tess... and it was one of them on the phone. Now, because of Fred/Fredina, things are going to get worse because there is now and heir to the throne.

And Rath isn't as innocent as we suspect, possibly working for Tess, and if he isn't already, Tess will undoubtly approach him with a business deal sometime in the future...

Man, another YAHTZEE! You're on a YAHTZEE roll on all three of my fics. You're like the Metallica of YAHTZEE's.

Chapter 9

Quotes from "Tess, Lies, and Videotape"

The Crashdown

Back Room

“Let me in Max.” Isabel whispered as she closed her eyes and extended her hands to cup his face.

Just when Isabel’s fingertips touch Max’s face, Max sat up like a zombie, startling everyone and making them jump.

“Jesus!” Isabel shouted clutching her heart after falling back.

“Max?” I called out frightened, when he began to cough hysterically. I ran to his side, making sure not to touch him and watched him gasp. “Max, what’s happening?”

“She’s-she’s gone.” Max coughed as he held his head. I held out my hand nervously, wanting to touch his face in support, but my hand trembled in fear, not knowing if it was safe. But Max erased all doubt when he turned to me and pulled me closer to him. “She’s gone.” He assured me and kissed my forehead.

I immediately wrapped my arms around his neck and covered him in worried kisses.

“I was so scared.” I confessed in his ear and then kissed his cheek.

“Maxwell. What the hell was she doing to you?” Michael questioned, waiting a bit before interrupting me and Max.

“She was looking for something.” Max answered, tucking his under the collar of my shirt and pulling out the whirlwind pendant from the black string. “For this.”

“So she’s back?” Isabel asked worried as she clutched on to Michael’s arm as he helped her up. Max turned to look at her and nodded ‘yes’.

“Isabel, get Alex. We have to have a meeting. Now.” Max ordered.

“Okay.” Isabel nodded and ran out the back room to the front.


Front

“What’s up? Is he okay?” Maria asked as she stood up from the stool when she saw Isabel.

“Yeah. He’s fine.”

“Thank God.” Maria gasped with her hand over her heart.

“Where are you going?” Kyle asked.

“To get Alex. Max called a meeting.”


Maria’s House

“Zan?” Ava called out knocking on his door and turning the knob to come in.

“Yeah, come in.” Zan answered. Ava opened the door and found him in his boxers, looking out the window and his bed a scrambled mess. “Hey.” He greeted, flashing her a weak smile.

“Uh, just wanted to tell you Rath broke. He went to the Crash.” Ava notified him, implying that Rath was going to cause trouble.

“Fuck!” Zan cursed, grabbing his jeans, hopping inside them while he shoved his feet in his shoes and then grabbed a T-shirt.

“Isabel said he went earlier to look for Liz.” Ava informed him as she watched him dress, stepping closer and closer to the door as he did so.

When he was done dressing he walked the last two steps to the door, leaned over and kissed Ava on the lips, before taking off, leaving Ava stunned and with deep guilt.


The Crashdown

Back Room

“You sure you’re okay?” I ask Max as I kiss his hands and he kisses my forehead.

“I’m fine.” Max assures me and cupped my cheeks so I could look him in the eyes. “You’re carrying my baby.” Max whispered in an amazed tone and flashed me one of his half smirks. I twist my lower lip when I bite down on it, blushing uncontrollable by the way Max was gazing at me. “I can’t believe it.”

“Yeah, me either.” I answer feeling my smile stretch.

“Max. Alex is here.” Michael announced, poking half his body in the back room and then leaving when he saw he interrupted our moment.

Damn it and this groups bad timing. I vow that when this is over...or cooled down...to celebrate the way I really want to with Max. But until then....

“Come on.” I say, taking his hand and started to walk to the door, but felt Max pull me back into his arms and his lips capture mine. “Mmmm.” I hum in surprise and then arch my eyebrow when I started to enjoy the spontaneous kiss.

“Sorry. I just really needed to do that.” Max exhaled, pressing his forehead against mine.

“Okay.” I answer with a smile and stand on my tippy toes to kiss him again. “Come on.”


Front

“What’s going on?” Alex asked when he spotted Max and Liz coming from the back. Alex was in a gray t-shirt and jogging pants, which could only mean that he was sleeping. He had been up all night doing the inventory for the restaurant and still looked like he didn’t sleep a wink.

“Tess is back.” Max answered, seating in one of the booths and pulling me lightly on my waist to sit on his lap.

“You saw her? Here?” Alex gulped.

“In a flash.” Max answered. “I would’ve just taken it as a her mind warping me from where ever she was hiding, but this flash was different.”

“Different?” Kyle questioned.

“She was looking for something. For the pendant Liz has. That can only mean one thing.”

“Yeah, like we’re screwed.” Michael snorted, as he pounded his fist quietly on the table top of the small table he was sitting at beside our booth.

“She knows that the pendant is the Andromena is the key she needs to work the Denathon.” Max added.

I just tugged on the Andromena nervously, while Max tucked his hands underneath my shirt and caressed my stomach. Unable to hold my instinct, I kissed Max on the cheek and then looked down at the tiles of the restaurant.

“Why would she take this long?” Maria asked, standing up from the stool and taking a step forward, declaring it was her turn to plot. “You would think that her being who she is back in Max-land that she would have found out sooner.”

“I think that has to do with our anonymous caller.” Max answered, looking to Michael, making us all do the same.

“What, like she got back up or something?” Michael theorized from Max’s thoughts.

Great, that’s all we needed. Tess and an army of Tess followers.

Something in the pit of my stomach tells me Tess isn’t the one we should be worrying about.

If the Skin from the cave would result to suicide in order not to face this new enemy....God, I feel chills just thinking about it...chills and Max’s hands still rubbing my stomach.

Why couldn’t the other Antarian aliens be like Max? E.T. wasn’t evil. Aliens.

If I wasn’t in love with one and having he’s baby...and both my best friend dating one....and my ex, me, and my best friend turning into one....uh, I’m pretty sure there was a point somewhere in that summary.

Stupid evil aliens. Wait a minute....

“You guys.” I call out looking straight at the floor without blinking. “What are the chances that the back up aliens know about 'star sixty- seven'?” I ask and look to everyone who are exchanging looks themselves.

And with some internal whistle, we all rush upstairs to see if my thought was right.


Liz’s Room

“Please, let these Czechoslovakians be morons.” Maria prayed with her fingers crossed. Max walked over and pushed the “Back” button on my ID Caller and smiled.

“Shut up!” Maria and Isabel yelled in disbelief at the same time.

But then Max’s smile instantly dropped.

This can’t be good.

“What is it?” I ask, walking up behind him and placing my hand on his shoulder.

“555-4831.” Max spoke.

That number. I know that phone number. But from where?

“The UFO Center.” Max announced.

“What?!” Isabel exclaimed in a panic.

“They’re across the street from us.” Max answered, storming out the room and headed back down to the restaurant with all of us following.


The Crashdown

“Well. Well. Well. Look who final came down to join us.”

Got another fic out guys: "Chemicals Between Us"

Chapter 10


The Crashdown


“Well. Well. Well. Look who finally came down to join us.” Rath announced with his arms wide open.

“Rath, how did you get in here?” I asked surprised to see him, feeling Max’s hand squeezing mine from annoyance.

“Just thought I catch a piece of you before you stopped the free show.” Rath answered with a cocky smile.

“Oh, yeah.” Max questioned boldly as he released my hand and headed straight towards Rath, who was displaying how un-intimidated he was of Max when he watched him charge towards him. I guess he expected Max to do what we all did, stand tall in front of Rath and threaten him, but to much of our surprise, Raging Bull appeared out of no where, Max pulled his fist back and punched Rath with his left and the hard with his right, making Rath fall to the floor.

“Max!” I yell in shock as I watch Max huddle over him and continue to punch Rath on the floor. “Michael. Do something.” I plead to Michael who was had his arms crossed as he watched in amusement Max empiring over Rath.

“Why?” Michael questioned, looking at me with the same expression the four of them had when they returned from Antar. A dark glare that wasn’t from Michael Guerin, the man she knew and grown to love as a brother, but of Michael A.K.A Rath, the second-in-command, watching his King taking matters into his own hands.

“Michael?” Maria called out as she shoved him, surprised that he wouldn’t stoop what was going on.

“Maria, if I go over there, I’m gonna kick his ass...then who’s gonna stop me? Buddha boy?” Michael snorted pointing to Kyle and then shook his head.

I could not believe that Michael refused to stop the fight. He was actually watching what was happening with admiration...and so was Isabel. “Screw this.” I declared, throwing my hands up and then taking a step forward in Max’s direction with attempt to stop Max, but felt Isabel grab onto my wrist, preventing me from going any further.

“Liz, are you crazy? The baby. You could get hurt.” Isabel warned. Then just as I was about to answer her, the chimes on the door jingle and then see Michael bolt forward. Isabel released her tight grip on my wrist when her attention was brought to the commotion at the door, which grabbed mine as well, and when I finally turn to see what was happening, I see Max and Zan going at it while Michael took on Rath.

“They’re gonna kill each other.” Maria whispered with worry in my ear. Aggravated by the situation, I lean over to look out the long window, to make sure no one was around before I moved forward, raising my hand, and send the four of them to the side wall.

“Stop it!” I order, still holding my hand up as the four of them get back to their feet. I know Max was defending my honor, and that was fine by me, it wasn’t everyday I saw Max duking it out with someone...but it was his eyes that creeped me out...his dark eyes...his Antarian eyes.

“Okay, can I get a clue in on what’s going on?” Kyle questioned, only clued into half the details.

“I second that.” Alex added, holding a finger up.

“Hey, you guys are the one’s with the hush meetings.” Rath pointed out as he cleaned his busted lip with a hand full of Crashdown napkins.

“What?” Michael spoke.

“Ava. Said something was up.” Rath explained in clear terms.

“I came because she told me he broke.” Zan added. Not noticing Max tightening his fist at the sound of Zan’s voice.

“Where is she now?” Kyle questioned.

“That’s not important right now.” Max declared and then walked out the restaurant and headed towards the UFO Center. Michael looked at Zan and Rath coldly and then ran behind Max.

“Sorry.” Zan apologized, unable to look completely at me.

“What?” Rath questioned, appalled to hear Zan apologize. “Because of the boxing or because of the peep show?”

“Hey!” Both Kyle and Alex warned as they stood in front of me.

“You flexin’?” Rath asked as he cracked his neck.

“Don’t have to. Max already did for us.” Kyle replied cooly.

“Oh, someone grew a pair.” Rath snorted, but then flew back against the wall when Kyle sent him flying.

“Got a little more too.” Kyle threatened. Rath stood right up like he was about to charge, but then realized he was clearly out numbered, and from a fit of rage he grabbed the top of the chairs and sent the sliding behind him as he stormed out the restaurant.

“I better go too.” Zan spoke softly and exited the restaurant, but headed in the opposite direction from where Rath went.

“I’m gonna keep an eye out for Michael and Max.” Isabel announced as she moved to the seats outside the restaurant and eyed the front door of the UFO Center for signs of Max and Michael.

“Okay, so like exactly how much did I miss?” Alex questioned to no one in particular as he sat on one of the stools to take in what just had happened.

“Cliff notes version.” Maria answered as she draped her arm over his shoulder. “Tess is back, she gots new friends, oh yeah, and Liz...she’s pregnant.”

“You’re what?” Alex and Kyle exclaimed in surprise.

“Pregnant.” I answer in assurance, but then look at Kyle confused, thinking that Kyle must of heard the news about the baby when he was in the back when Max didn’t want me to touch him during Tess’s mind warp.

“I thought Max was calling you “baby”. I didn’t know he was calling the baby “baby”.” Kyle explained in shock. I could only nod with a giggle as I hugged my stomach, ecstatic of the fact that I was pregnant and then looked over to Maria who was watching with a huge smile plastered on her face, noticing my happiness.

“Wow. Congratulations Liz. I’m really uh really happy for you.” Alex stuttered with a smile before hugging me tightly.

“Yeah, congratulations.” Kyle added and joined in on the hug.

“Aww. Group hug. Tear.” Maria laughed, hopping off the stool and joining in on the hug, but then her smile dropped when she focused outside of the door. “Uh oh. Hyde and Jenkle are back.” Maria pointed out with her chin Michael and Max talking to Isabel and them coming inside.

“No one’s there.” Michael announced as he locked the door behind him.

“And with Tess’s powers I doubt anyone saw them.” Isabel added as she crossed her arms.

“Who?” Alex asked.

“Long story.” Maria answered and then looked back to Michael. “So what’s the plan, assuming you have one besides going commando and ‘beating them to a bloody pulp’?” She asked, taking the words right out of my mouth.

“What? That jerk deserved it.” Michael defended his and Max’s actions.

“It wasn’t just the fight...”

“It was your eyes.” I finished off Maria’s statement, lowering my head in disappointment. “You haven’t looked like that...I just thought I’d never see it again.” I mumble sadly as Max moved in front of me and cupped my cheeks.

“It’s who we had to become...in order to survive.” Max whispered, wiping my stray tear. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you.” He added when he kissed my forehead and then pulled me into a rocking hug to sooth me.

“ Where did Rath and Zan go?” Michael questioned, when he realized they were gone.


Maria’s House

‘Knock. Knock’

“What the hell do you want?” Rath questioned, letting the loud music echo out when he opened the door from his basement room to see Ava standing there with two open bottles of Corona beers in her hands.

“Wanna talk?” She asked softly with a sly smirk.

Rath looked at her for a moment and then pulled his door open more to let her in.


Park

“Let me get a hawt dawg awe da way.” Zan ordered to the hot dog vendor and then watched impressed as the vendor drained the long hot dog, placed it in a bun, and covered it with chili, onions and mustard.

“So-Ho, baby.” The vendor represented and caused Zan to smile and nod.

“It’s where we be at.” Zan replied and then turned away almost running into the person next to him. “Ava?”

“Gotta talk.” She answered with a slick smile and then guided Zan to one of the park benches.
