Remember Me Part 3

Thank you all for writing the reviews! I appreciate it!

"Wow! It feels so great to be back in my own room, Maria. You have no idea how much I missed Roswell. I mean, sure the beach and the warm air and stuff down in Florida is great and all, but nothing is better than the town you're born and raised in," Liz said as she unpacked all of her things.

"Well, babe, we're all so glad that you've come home! I missed you so much! I mean, sure Izzy and I have gotten a lot closer since we were the only girls, but still, you've been there for me since childhood!" Maria replied, her eyes getting slightly misty as she said her small speech.

"Now, Maria. Please tell me the absolute truth about this, even if you think I'll be hurt. Are Tess and Max, still together?" Liz asked, dreading the answer.

"Sorry, chica, but they are. I wish I could tell you something different, but I can't lie," Maria quietly stated.

"Well, I guess there's not much I can do about it then, is there. Come on," she said, changing the subject, "let's go down and celebrate my lovely return!" They went downstairs and closed the Crashdown for the day. The aliens made sure no one was around and then waves their hands. Instantly, the room was decorated and beautiful, with candles everywhere and music playing softly in the background. Tears came to Liz's eyes as she looked around, realizing how much she had missed her home.

"My lady, could I please have this dance?" Alex whispered softly in Isabel's ear.

"Do you even need to ask? Of course, I would love to dance with you, kind sir!" she said. Alex grabbed her hand and led them out onto the dance floor (which was the room, just with the tables and booths pushed to the edge. Soon all the couples were following Alex's and Isabel's example and slow dancing to the soft music. Liz and Kyle were the only ones on the sidelines. Finally, Kyle approached Liz said since they were the only people not dancing, they might as well dance together. Liz agreed and Kyle led her around the room. He began to do these wacky dance moves that made Liz start to crack up. *Wow!* she thought, *I haven't had this much fun since Max and I first started dating.*

Liz's laughing attracted everyone's attention and they all watched as Kyle swooped around the room, dancing with every girl there in his funny fashion. Pretty soon, they were all collapsed in chairs laughing so hard that they could barely breathe. Liz, Maria, and Isabel all had tears of laughter in their eyes. They all got up and started dancing again, this time all dancing what they had dubbed the "Kyle Waltz." They were laughing and dancing crazily when in walked Tess and Max.

Kyle was the only one who noticed their entrance; the others were too busy laughing and dancing. At that moment Liz was the one dancing with Kyle and he thought hard for a second. He "waltzed" them over to where Tess and Max were watching them all, looking at them like they were crazy. He spun Liz away and let go of her hand, swooping over and grabbing Tess. He started to dance with her and pretty soon she, too was laughing. No one seemed to notice Liz and Max in the doorway, staring at each other.

Max was staring at Liz, trying to place her. He knew that her parents owned the Crashdown and that she went to school with him, but other than that, he couldn't quite remember where she was from. Liz, meanwhile, was staring back at Max. *God, he's gorgeous,* she thought, *I wonder why he's looking at me like that though. Like he can't quite figure out how he knows me away from school and work. Maybe I'm just imagining it; maybe he knows exactly who I am and is just shocked to see me back. After all, I doubt that Isabel told him I was coming.*

Tess finally noticed that Max and Liz were staring and at first she didn't care. She was having way too much fun with Kyle to worry about how her mind warp was holding up on Max. But then she heard Nesado's voice echoing in her head, even though he was dust and long gone. *What are you doing?!?* she heard his voice shrieking at her, *you're supposed to be with the king, your precious Max. Not standing here laughing at a human.* *But I like him,* she told the voice. *I think I might even love him. AND I've realized I don't care for Max in a "wifely" kind of way.* *WHAT?! YOU'VE FALLEN FOR A HUMAN!!! HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU THAT YOU CAN NEVER EVER FALL IN LOVE WITH THESE LOWLY EARTH CREATURES. YOU MUST BE WITH MAX! I DON'T CARE WHETHER YOU LOVE HIM OR NOT! YOU HAVE TO BE WITH HIM OR OUR PLANET WILL DIE!* *Wow!* Tess thought, away from Nesado so he couldn't hear her thoughts. *Why is it so important that I be with Max? I know that our planet will suffer, but I don't know if I really want to help our planet. I mean, so what if I can remember things from there. Right now, Earth is home to me. * She actually spoke to the Nesado voice, *Why is it so important that our planet survive? I know that if our planet blows up or something it will affect the whole universe, but what about just being taken over? I really don't want to be with Max. I want to be with Kyle.* *I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU WANT!!!!! YOU DON'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT. I'M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW, IF YOU ARE NOT WITH MAX BY THE NEXT TIME I CHECK IN, I AM GOING TO REINCARNATE MYSELF AND COME DOWN THERE AND WHOOP YOUR ASS!! GET IT?* *Alright, alright, I get it! Fine I'll be with Max!* But the voice was gone.

"Sorry, Kyle, gotta go. Max and I don't want to miss our movie." *No matter how much I want to.* She danced over to Max, who was still just standing there, staring at Liz. "Come on, sweetheart! We have to go catch our movie!!"

"Umm, okay, hon. Let's go!"

Liz watched as they walked away, tears pooling in her eyes. Kyle came over to her and comfortingly put his arm around her shoulder.

"Now that was weird!!"
