Disclaimer: If I own Roswell then what am I doing here in Corn Town? Lol-
basically, I don't own Roswell- the show, the place, the people- not me!
~A/N~ I hope y'all enjoy this one- sort of different from my last Roswell story but still a Liz story. I am a dreamer at heart- I'll admit it but I like to put a twist on my Max/Liz stories and throw in another element- an element, in this story particularly, which is very hard to overcome and sometimes impossible. Again- enjoy! AND PLEASE REVIEW! I need reviews to be able to write again so if you want more you must review! Thanks!

"Come ON LIZ!" Maria screamed tugging at her hand and trying to pull her up from the bed. Liz shook her head, squeezing her eyes shut and letting out a tiny little scream. She heard Alex chuckled from the other side of the room. "ALEX! Are you just going to stand there or are you going to help me you big idiot?" Liz heard Maria's angry voice and she couldn't suppress the smile from spreading across her face.
She opened her eyes, "alright! Geez Maria, let go of me and I will go with you just please don't pull my arm out of my socket!" Liz said as she glanced over at Maria and stood up from her bed. She grabbed her brush and began to run it through her long hair as she listened to Maria's babble of excitement. She caught Alex's gaze in the mirror and laughed as he rolled his eyes.
"Alex Whitman! Don't you go rolling your eyes at me! Liz, you know it is for the best. You can't dwell over this anymore. This whole Max and Tess thing is severely messed up and when you go to the party you can meet someone NEW- someone NICE! No more Czechloslovachians (Someone tell me how to spell that? Please?) for you.
Liz smiled toward Maria trying to show a little enthusiasm and cover her unending need to be alone. "I'm sure it will be great Maria. Who's party is it again?"
"Tony Baker's. Yeah, you know he has that HUGE house on the other side of town- in the rich area? Yeah, he's in my Chem class and he told me I should bring some people and come and check it out. Sounds good right?"
Alex laughed, "it sounds fine Maria. You should listen to yourself- I swear your mouth is moving a million miles an hour." He smiled at her as he grabbed his coat off the chair by Liz's desk and they headed for the door.
"Well Alex, I am just trying to be a GOOD friend and get our best friend to feel better! Get over all that alien bull shit and just have a good time for once- sound alright to you?"
Alex laughed again nodding his head, "as much as I'll never forget Isabel Evans I guess that sounds alright to me."
*Ten Minutes later- the party*
The three of them entered the loud house and merged slowly into the mass of bodies jammed into the tight entryway. They pushed their way through and finally broke into the center of the living room where there weren't as many bodies and they could finally look around and breathe.
"SHIT!" She heard Maria's voice barely audible over the loud music blasting from the stereo system up against one of the walls. She looked over at her confused and followed her eyes to see what she was looking at.
Maria glanced over at her with regret, "I'm so sorry Liz!" She screamed apologetically over the music, "I didn't know they would be here."
Liz shook her head brushing off Maria's apology as she watched Max and Tess across the room- dancing together and so lost in each other's eyes she doubted they even noticed the party going on around her.
She grabbed Alex's hand and he looked down at her startled. "Come with me to get something to drink?" She asked and it sounded more like a statement rather than a question but Alex followed obediently with Maria right at their heels as they headed toward the drink table.
Liz reluctantly grabbed a beer and Maria looked at her shocked. "What are you doing Liz!? You NEVER drink that stuff!" Maria screamed over the movie as she watched Liz pop it open and pour some of it into her mouth.
Liz cringed and looked back down at the can. She shrugged, "sometimes I need to forget," she said quietly and shook her head as she took another sip.
*The next morning*
Liz groaned as she slowly was dragged out of sleep by the sun peaking through her window and falling directly over her eyes. She moaned again as she felt the slow and painful throbbing of her head.
She opened her eyes a slit and looked around the room, at that moment she realized it wasn't her room at all. She looked around confused and tried to remember the events from last night but realized everything was a drunken blur.
She felt the movement beside her and she felt her heart stop in her chest as she realized she wasn't alone in bed- and that she wasn't fully dressed either. She jumped out of bed hurriedly, despite the objection from her throbbing head and began to gather her clothes, not looking at the bed, not wanting to know who had been lying next to her.
She ran over the blurry scenes from last night and slowly the pieces began to come together and she began to get a clearer sense of what had happened. She stopped and slowly turned around to face the bed. She felt her heart drop at what she saw and heard the blood rushing in her ears.
"Oh my God," she muttered, "Alex."
