Summary: Okay this is a rewrite of the show polar style. Which means the main love triangle instead of being Max/Liz/Tess will be Michael/Liz/Max.

A/N: This starts out a week after Michael returned Liz's journal. Maria and Michael are not together so this is a Maria friendly story which is a first for me.

Michael Guerin watched her from across the street for what seemed like minutes but was really hours. He did not understand these new feelings that he was having for this girl but he knew no matter how hard he tried he could not make these feelings go away; he had tried really he had. He had left Max and Isabel saying he had somewhere to be knowing that Max would be too busy doing "perfect family" things to come by the Crashdown. Max couldn't know about this little visit or the only thing he could count on would go down the drain. Even though Michael knew he should not be there he could not seem to stay away since last week when he had read her journal.

Sitting in the cold that only the New Mexico desert can bring at night he watched her smile as the last customers finally left the crashdown waving at them as they left. She turned around and headed to the back of the crash for what I assume was cleaning supplies. Michael knew she was in the crashdown alone which is why he had chosen that night to come to her again; with a much different agenda than he had the week before.

Realizing it was his chance he made break for the doors almost jogging to the door. He placed his hand on the handle taking a deep breath before entering the restaurant. As if on cue Liz walked from the backroom with a broom in her hands.

"Michael, what are you doing here?" She asked him studying his face looking for answers.

"Um, I'm not really sure I just ended up here." Michael told her while bringing his hand up to scratch his eyebrow in frustration.

Liz shifted from foot to foot as she looked at him with confused eyes, "Michael, is this about my journal again? I promise I hid it so no one would ever find it." She tells him the fear evident in her voice as she bit nervously on her lower lip.

"I just wish you had hid it better before I found it Liz." He tells her taking a step towards her his voice remaining calm but he was anything but calm.

Fear clouded Liz's prefect features as she took a step back wishing there was someone she could call out to for help but their wasn't a single person in the building not even her parents who where away for the weekend.

"Michael, you're scaring me." She finally said as he walked her into the wall behind her. Liz's whole body started to shake as the fear of what this powerful man could do to her before she could plead for her life.

"And you should be scared Liz." He reached up and pulled the antenna headband from her head gently.

"What…"

"Shhh," He pulled her hair loose from her high pony tail running his hand through her long silky hair. "I've tried to get what you wrote about us in your journal out of my head but the more I try to forget the more I think about it; about you."

Liz looked up at him more confused than ever about what he was talking about but before she could think about it more he ran his hand down her neck causing unexplained pleasure to rake through her body.

"I've never really ever gave you much of a second thought until you were forced upon my life." He told her as he stepped back giving him much needed space from her.

"I'm sorry Michael I never meant to change your life so much." She took a step towards him wanting to reassure him that she was never out to hurt him or would she ever hurt him.

"But that's the thing Liz you have changed my life and there's no going back." He walked past her to the break room wanting to be as far away from her as possible in case he snapped doing something he would regret.

Liz followed after him into the back watching him pace the room. "Max wants to step back from us so I may not be in your life much longer anyways." She told him in a barely audible voice.

"I don't want that." He told her sitting down on the old couch in the break room, "That's why I came here to tell you I can't get you out of my head. I listen to music and you're in every song. I try to draw your every picture. I try to sleep and you're in every dream."

He stands up again moving towards her in lightening speed pushing her up against the wall once more.

"I need to know Liz how do I get you out of my head?" He pleads with her before running his hand through her hair one last time. "That's why I came here tonight because since I've seen inside your soul it's become like a drug and I just want to be near you."

He looks up at her again realizing he breathing has picked up he pulls away from her turning his back to her with a sigh. Where have all these emotional feelings come from, Michael have wonders to himself.

"Do you really think about me?" The same voice small voice comes from behind him.

Turning around to see her flushed against the wall, "Every day it's like a curse."

She takes a step towards him causing Michael to take a step back from her. "I've been thinking about you too."

Liz takes another step towards him but Michael doesn't retract back this time as she comes to stand too close for his comfort.

"What about Max?" Michael asks her while inhaling her sweet vanilla scent.

Liz looked up at him not understanding the emotions running through her body but not really wanting to understand them either. "I don't know what about him?"

Michael not being able to control his feelings anymore grabbed her pulling her up to him.

"To tell you the truth I'm not sure if I care anymore."

Liz pulled his face down to hers capturing his lips. What started out as a sweet kiss quickly turned into a hot passionate kiss. His hot breathe mixed with hers as he pulled away.

"I'll see you around Parker," with that he walked through the book again leaving Liz standing there confused.

"Things just keep getting more and more confusing." Liz said to the empty room wondering why she put herself in this situation things are about to get really confusing.
