Chapter 11: Tears of the night

Is that the old man walking in the dark

It was a clear night, despite the light rain. Moonlight cast its glow around her. Tears rolled down her face. Her feelings and thoughts were overloading. Her heart ached. It hurt so much. She leaned her head on the glass of the window and listened to the rain. Right now she needed him to hold her. But he was still gone. It had been hours and she had this horrible feeling in her gut that those hours would turn into days. She let her hand touch the window, the green light still shooting through her body, and just stared at it. Liz lost track of time, completely unaware of how long she sat there. She didn't even notice the careful knock at the door. Nor did she notice as the person knocking, slowly pushed the door open and made his way toward her.

Take me home where them broken brights
Are shining down... make me feel alright

A [long] few hours ago...

After Michael ran out of his apartment, he got on his bike and just drove for hours. He did it! He ran! Out of his own apartment. Out on her. Out on them. His head was spinning. Not knowing what would happen next. Just the thought that he might lose Liz terrified him so much that he couldn't think straight. His mind was completely blank. He just drove until, suddenly, for no reason, he stopped in the middle of nowhere. He took off his motorcycle helmet and looked up to the clear dark-blue sky, and let the soft raindrops fall on his face. He breathed slowly, and let his eyes close. Tears mixed with the rain on his cheeks, but he didin't care.

His grip on his helmet tighened as his thoughts of Liz began to overload. The more helpless he he felt, the more angry he got. He just didn't know what to do or how to help her. Liz had powers because Max changed her when he saved her life. Right now,Michael was so thankful to Max for saving her and so angry at him for changing her. Somewhere, in the logical, soldier portion of his mind, he knew it wasn't Max's fault but right now he needed someone he could blame. Feelings of guilt threatened to overwhelm him as he thought of how he had run out on Liz. Michael thought about losing her; how they weren't sure if she could die from this. Michael thought back to what happened after she found out and locked herself in the bathroom. Realizing he made the same mistake she did, he put his helmet back on and turned around. He hoped it wasn't too late.

Shake them bones let me lost tonight
We'll grow young make me feel alright

After a very long drive Michael was finally back at his place. Still raining lightly, he took of his motorcycle helmet and got of the bike. He was about to rush in when he notice Liz, head against the window, tears in her eyes staring at the light running through her hand. He stopped dead in his tracks and just stood there and watched her for a long time.

Michael carefully knocked on the door, hoping not to startle her. He opened the door and made his way towards her. Michael stood behind her so she could see his reflection in the window. They stayed that way for a while before her eyes moved and saw his reflection. Not sure if he was really there she looked her gaze at him. Noticing her eyes on him he slow put his hand on her shoulder, making sure to her he was really here. Liz turned around and wrapped her arms around him.

"I thought ..." she let out in a low husky voice.

"Shhhh it's ok Liz ... I'm so sorry I just left like that."

"You where scared" looking up at him "like I am, I get that, but don't ever do that again."

"I won't I promise." he whispered wiping her tears away and kissing her slowly.

When we were young when we were young
make me feel ... make me feel alright

Michael noticed that Liz was shivering. "You're cold." She nodded her head. Without a word Michael picked her up and carried her into the bathroom. He carefully sat her down, then went over to the shower and turned the hot water on. Just as he turned around, Liz crushed her lips to his, and kissed him deeply. He got the message. Slowly they undressed each other until there was no more. Liz was still cold, shivering and starting to get goosebumps as Michael took her hand, led her into the shower and under the warm water. As the heat of the water started to warm her body, she crushed her lips back to his and Liz finally started to feel warm and safe again.

Michael's hands started to move all over her body eliciting soft cries of passion from her soft lips. He brought a hand up, softly caressing her breast as he begun to kiss along her neck. Her hand tangled in his hair and pressed him closer. He ran his other hand down her side, down to her thighs and then back up to tease her.
"Liz." Michael hissed as her small hand wrapped around his hard cock. She started to stroke him with a long, slow rhythm. Michael deepened the kiss to the point Liz felt he was literally trying to devour her. Afraid he would come to soon if she continued to stroke him like that, he picked her up and pressed her against the cold shower tiles. The hot water poured down over them. Liz slowly began to rock her hips, driving him crazy. Michael grunted and she felt his muscles contract against her. She knew he was losing control. Michael gripped her hips, stopped her movements, and firmly pressed her against the wall leaving no space between them.
"Michael!" Liz groaned in frustration. "Please." Michael didn't have to be told twice. As he slowly slid into her warm damp folds, their gazes locked. They started to move in a slow steady rhythm, not taking their eyes of each other. Liz met him thrust for thrust. She demanded more pressure and cupped his ass, urging him deeper. Michael gripped her hips and thrust roughly, into her.
"Fuck", he hissed in pleasure as she began to move roughly against him and let her nails dig into his back.
"Harder Michael ... ugh ... oh god fuck me Michael... faster, I need you. I need to feel all of you." Her whispered pleas turned him on, and he thrust harder and faster into her even as his sex swelled more within her. Michael let out a groan and crushed his lips to hers. He plunged in and out of her fast as her muscles clenched his cock. She was so close. He felt her release as she came hard. His hips pounded against hers as his own climax over took him.

make me feel ... make me feel alright

In the mean time ...

After they left Max drove Maria home. But before he dropped her off, he had to talk with her.

"Maria, listen to me before you say anything, please?" He pleaded and she nodded her head.

"I know what Liz did was wrong but it wasn't her fault. I'm the one that saved her life and changed her in the process. The fact that she has powers now is my fault. But what happened to you at school is your's."

"How dare you!" she yelled in outrage.

"MARIA! Shut up. I said let me talk. We both were hurt by Michael and Liz but they never lied to us. I get that now. We the once who made this mess we are in now. And now our group is falling apart. Your best friend might be dying. I know you hurt, but right now that is not important, so get over it. Right now we need to find a way to help Liz."

"Whatever! Thanks for the ride." With that she got out of the car and slammed the door behind her. Maria knew that Max was right but she was still hurt and angry and she did not know if she could get past it.

As she walked away, Max suddenly had an idea. He may have thought of way to help Liz after all. He needed to talk to Izzy.

I hope you all liked it. If been trying to write this chapter for a while now. I had one done about 2 or 3 years ago but it didn't feel right. If you force yourself to write the story would have changed and I didn't liked what I wrote at all.
So I had no beta-reader since this isn't my first language. SORRY for the grammar's. Anyway please let me know what you think.
