Chapter 3
"Angel", sighed Zan putting his head down.
She had been whining for Liz for the past four hours.
"Liz can't be with you every minute of the day Angel", said Zan sighing.
Over the past two months, Angel has been attached to Liz.
"My Lizzie", whined Angel pouting her lips at Zan.
"Fine", said Zan reaching over and dialing the familiar number.
Liz was lounging on her coach. She had a tough day. Her talking to the police seemed to not help. She knew that they knew something. It seemed that no one knew where her father was. She sighed once more and heard the phone ring. She checked the caller id and tried to make her heart stop pounding. It seemed to do that whenever Zan was around or when she was thinking about Zan and when he called.
"God I'm so in love", said Liz sighing.
The last two months have been the greatest. Zan had kept his promise and let her see Angel. It was wonderful. It was like having her little brother back all over again. Liz had also met Zan's friends as well. At first they were not comfortable around her but she won them over. Maria and Serena talked her on the phone now and it felt good to have girlfriends something she never had before. Maria was funny and Serena was sweet and they welcomed her into their little group. She also loved being around Kyle that was always cracking jokes. Little Rath was just like his father, especially with the spiked hair. He would run around the room and Maria would yell but Michael would just smile at this little boy making a comment about how he was so proud. Then there was Zan and Angel. They were the highlight of her life. It was hard not going one day with them.
"Hey", said Liz picking up the phone.
Zan smiled at hearing her voice.
"Hey, hey Liz, umm I hate to bother you, ummm", said Zan trying to get the words out.
"No you aren't bothering me", said Liz smiling at his nervousness.
"Yeah umm I was wondering if you could come over, I mean it's just that Angel is been asking for you and well I have to study and she is well missing you and I god I'm so sorry to be asking you this it's just that", said Zan rambling.
It wasn't really in him to ramble. Liz made him nervous. There was something about her that made him nervous.
"Zan Zan, yeah I'll come over", said Liz giggling.
"Oh okay, umm see you in a little while then", said Zan hanging up the phone.
He sighed. He lifted up his head when he heard his little girl giggling at him.
"Daddy sounded funny", said Angel smiling.
Zan grabbed her then and tickled her.
"You think that is funny don't you, little Angel", said Zan kissing her neck and blowing raspberries into her stomach making her squeal out in delight.
"Daddy", yelled Angel with her face turning red from all the laughter.
"Can I join this party", said Maria carrying in a squirming child.
Rath was one of those children that acted like he was on a sugar rush all the time.
"Uccy Zan", yelled Rath.
He was only one years old and was the most energetic child that Zan had ever been around. Sure Angel had her moments but Rath was handful.
"Hey buddy", said Zan hugging him as he ran towards him.
The force he ran towards him almost made Zan fall backwards. Rath just smiled his big smile though. His teeth was not completely in and his smile was adorable. Maria lifted up her head when she heard the bell ring.
"Expecting company?", asked Maria.
"Umm yous knows Liz is comin over and wat not, umm Angel's wanted to see her", said Zan slipping a little into his New York accent.
Maria just gave him a knowing look. He tried not to blush at her look but Maria saw his rather large ear turning a light shade of pink. He was also scratching the back of his neck like he always did when he was nervous about something.
"Liz huh?", asked Maria picking up Rath that was now trying to get into something.
"Yeah, Maria shut up", said Zan glaring at her.
"Hey Michael", said Liz stepping into the cozy three bedroom house.
Michael and Maria was a nice family. Maria was a music teacher while Michael taught Art History at the local community college. Their one year old son Rath was a handful but he was so adorable.
"Hey Liz, I didn't know you were coming over", said Michael letting her in.
"Umm Zan called he said that Angel wanted me over and because he had to study umm he needed me to like baby sit", said Liz nervously smiling.
Michael smirked.
"Baby Sit, umm is that what they are calling it now a days", mumbled Michael but loud enough for Liz to hear and blush.
"You know where it is", said Michael smirking at her blush.
Liz nodded her head trying not to blush anymore than she was. She walked towards the staircase. She took the steps down to Zan's apartment. They talked about why he was living in Maria's basement. He was in law school. She smiled because they had so much in common she was in law school as well. However while he was at NYU she was at Columbia. It was amazing really.
"Hey", said Zan as he saw Liz walking towards him.
He stood up wiping his fingers on his pants. He looked down on the floor shifting from on foot to another. She stood in front him blushing. Maria looked at them with barely contained amusement. They were so adorable together. Like junior high school crush. But Maria knew that what they would have if they ever took the chance would be this awesome thing.
"Well me and my baby will be going to convince my husband to take out to some place nice, have fun", said Maria kissing both their cheeks.
"Lizzie", yelled Angel running towards her.
Liz picked up her quickly and kissed her all over the place. Angel giggled while she wrapped her small arms around Liz's neck.
"Umm thanks a lot Liz for coming, Angel been missin yous", said Zan.
Liz smiled at him and he almost lost it. She was so beautiful. She wasn't classically beautiful, no Liz Parker had more of a innocent beauty. She was the girl next door.
"So Angel let's go play in your room so your daddy can study", said Liz walking Angel towards the princess bedroom.
It was so girly so unlike Zan. Zan had that rough bad boy thing going on. He had the tattoos and the nipple piercing that Liz had got to see when she not purposefully walked in on him as he was getting out of the shower. She just wanted to get something to drink so she could go back to playing with Angel but Zan came walking out and she almost dropped the cup on the floor. He stood before her in all of his glory. He was amazing looking. His chest was wet and his hair was wet and spiked up. All she saw was his amazing abs because the towel was wrapped low on his waist. She blushed when she saw him looking at her. His nipple rings shown brightly. She almost gaped when she him almost drop his towel. She quickly ran out of the room then. It took her nearly a whole week to look him the eye. Every time even now she would blush bright red.
2 hours later……………
"Goodnight sweetheart", whispered Liz kissing Angel's forehead.
Angel had worn herself out. Liz reached and ran her fingers through Angel's curly mane. She was such a beautiful child. Her mother must of have been beautiful. Or did she get her looks from her father. Liz smiled no she was all Zan. She was the exact replica of her father. Liz found herself falling in love with the small tyke. It meant so much for her that Zan allowed Angel to be such a large part of her life. Liz found her falling for the father also. She didn't know how to handle these feelings. It was so hard to be around him and not want to be kissed. Liz often times craved his touch. Even if it was just to get something from his hands or just to hand him something. Even though it is a brief touch it meant the world to her. Liz sighed and got up walking towards the living room where Zan was studying. He looked at her and gave her a smile.
"Thanks for comin ova, she wanted you tonight, I know I shouldn't be buggin yous like this but Angel I'm a softy when it comes to her", said Zan smiling at her.
Liz gave him a big smile as well.
"Come sit", said Zan pointing to the seat next to him.
Liz sat down and looked at him. She hated how she acted around him, like she was a freshmen in high school in love with the senior jock. Zan was everything she wanted. He was smart and sexy and kind and that was only some of his good qualities.
"Liz, thank you, I have a test tomorrow and I really needed to study, you know", said Zan looking at her.
"I don't want you to think that I only think of you as a babysitter or something because I don't. You are so much more to me than that, umm I mean more to Angel, shit", said Zan covering his eyes.
He didn't mean to say that out loud. Liz smiled at what he said.
"Look Liz, umm I know really I was wonderin", said Zan looking at her.
"What?", asked Liz tucking a stray hair behind her ear.
"I was wonderin if you wanted to go out, I mean like dinnah", said Zan.
"With you and Angel?", asked Liz.
"NO I mean I mean with me only, me and you", said Zan looking at her.
He was trying to be cool but with her he just acted like a fool.
"Sure, I would love to", said Liz.
"Good that's great", said Zan smiling and went to hug her but she moved forward and their heads bumped together.
"Oww", giggled Liz.
Zan rubbed his forehead and smiled at her before reaching out to rub her forehead at the same time as she did. Liz smiled at him once more. Zan looked at her and couldn't help but reach over and tuck the stray hair that always seemed to be getting loose. Liz's smile somewhat faded as she felt his fingers in her hair. She closed her eyes at the sensation.
"Liz", whispered Zan.
She tilted her head up and that's when she felt it. His lips brushed her lips gently. He pulled back a bit to see her reaction but what he saw made him smile. He leaned more and kissed her more. It was gently at first and when she sighed he took this opportunity and gently slipped his tongue into her mouth. Liz gasped and ran her fingers in his hair making him move more into her body. It was amazing to her. She closed her eyes but her eyes flashed up when she started seeing pictures forming in her mind. They were confusing. She saw four little people coming out of these large egg sacks. She looked at Zan but he didn't seem to getting these visions. Liz closed her eyes and fell more into the kiss. She was still weirded out by the visions but she wasn't going to dwell on that seeing that Zan was kissing her in the way she had been craving. She felt him pick her up and place her on his lap. It was perfect. She would worry about that later.
"God Liz", whispered Zan.
Liz smiled against his mouth as he hugged her closer.
"I wanted you to kiss me like that for so long", whispered Liz looking into his amber eyes.
"I wanted to kiss you like that for a long time", said Zan.
Liz smiled. They stayed like that in each other's arms for the next few hours.
"Zan I have I hate this, they won't tell me anything", said Liz telling Zan about her issue with the police department handling the case of her mother and brother's murder.
"I have an idea, I know a guy a computer guy he lives out of the state but he can probably get into some files. I never met him but I know he would help", said Zan running his hands through her hair.
"What's his name?", asked Liz laying her head on his shoulders while sitting on his lap.
"Alex, he knows a few things. He is from Roswell but he said he had wanted to come out her with his girlfriend", said Zan smiling.
"But enough talk, more kissin", said Zan smiling at her.
Liz leaned in placing small kisses against his mouth. He smiled at her.
"Alex", said Isabel waking up shooting up.
"Izzy, is he alright?", asked Alex looking concerned.
"Yeah he doesn't know that he is different. He doesn't know that our dad that man that was supposed to be our dad saved his daughter. Alex he is in love", said Isabel smiling.
"What are we going to do?", asked Alex.
"tell him the truth, he has to know that he is the king of Antar and that that bitch Tess is going to try to talk him into that destiny thing", said Isabel sneering.
Tess had come into their town and almost killed Alex trying to decode her destiny book. Alex kissed her forehead.
"He has to know, he has to know that his daughter is the next heir", said Isabel.
Alex nodded his head.
"I guess we are going to New York", said Alex kissing her forehead.
"I should have killed her, she is not getting close to my brother, he deserves to be happy and she is not going to find him", said Isabel determined.
Alex nodded his head.
Liz giggled and looked at Zan. He was the one, she knew.
"Zan?", said Liz still sitting on his lap.
"Yeah", asked Zan kissing her forehead.
"I like having you in my life", said Liz.
"I like you being in my life too", said Zan.
He leaned over and kissed her once more.
"Daddy", said a little girl rubbing sleep from her eyes.
"Lizzie", said Angel running and jumping into Liz's lap.
Liz smiled and kissed her forehead. Zan smiled at these two girls. They were his girls. He kissed his daughters forehead and watched in awe as Liz sang to his little girl. That image would forever be burned in his mind. He was happy. However he never knew what awaited him.
