"Their so lucky." Phoebe pouted looking at the happy couple that was Michael and Maria. They were both sitting in one of the booths quietly talking to each other, Michael had his arms around Maria as she was perfectly placed part way on his lap.

"Phoebe. . .Cole will come around. His just afraid." Prue reassured her sister even though she hated Cole.

"Yeah, sure he will some day when I'm old and gray!" Phoebe said looking back at Michael and Maria. She sighed as she watched Michael nibble Maria's neck as she giggled at something he had just said.

"Their quiet, it's sort of unnerving." Tess said walking up to the witches.

"Why is it unnerving?" Piper asked

"Before they were always at each others throats. . .and now. . .I don't know. I mean their not like Max and Liz mushy or anything. Their just quiet like that, I guess it's cute for people who never knew them before. . .before we had a chance to go home." Tess said walking back to her others friends.

"A chance to get back home?" Prue asked curious.

"Yeah, a couple of months ago we had a chance to go home and we were going to go. But something happened, the last thing that we thought would." Isabel said biting into one if her boyfriends fries.

"What?" Phoebe asked

"Oh, right before we were going to leave Michael said he didn't want to go and he left the chamber. After that we all decided to leave too not really wanting to go either. It was weird, I mean I could feel that Michael was still deciding on what he wanted to do. . .I don't know what changed his mind." Isabel said thoughtfully looking at her half brother.

~~~

"So how long are they going to be here?" Michael asked Maria leaning back farther into the booth.

"Till tonight when they have to get back to California. . .Michael can we talk?" Maria asked him. Michael nodded and the two left the cafe. A few minutes later they were at the park sitting on the swings.

"Are you okay?" Michael asked getting worried for his little pixie.

"Oh! Yeah, I'm fine it's nothing bad." Maria said looking at Michael upset that she gave him the wrong idea.

"Good." Michael said breathing again.

"When I went to see the council they told me that I needed to move in with my sisters. I don't want to leave you, especially now that you've given up home for me. . .but I need to go with them or they'll take my powers away. They said something big is coming and I need to be with my sisters when it happens. I. . .uh." Maria stopped not knowing what to say.

"I'm going with you." Michael said firmly. Maria looked up in surprise.

"Really?" She asked hopefully, she was going to ask him to come with her.

"Of course. We can have a future now and I'm not about to give that up." Michael said looking ahead thinking of the things that they would to together. Before he knew what was going on Maria was in his arms crying.

"What? What's wrong?" Michael asked worried again. Maria sat on him lap and smiled.

"Nothing, I'm just really glad that you want to come." She said kissing him again.

"What about the council people?" He asked her

"It was their idea, they watch over me all the time. They saw that I wouldn't leave you so they told me that when I leave with my sisters that it was okay for you to come. Leo can get us into the high school, and he already talked to a friend of his that's a. . .actually I don't know what he is but he has an apartment and said that you could stay with him for free! We wouldn't need jobs, we could do things at Pipers club P3 fir extra cash and stuff! Do you really want to come? I mean what about Max, Isabel and Tess? And the alien stuff?" Maria asked her smile fading

"I really want to come. IF something goes wrongs than they can call us and we'll come back. There nothings else really to do with the alien stuff, we found a way home and we turned it down. The skins have left us alone. . .everything's fine. What about your mom, Liz and Alex?" Michael asked

"My mom will stay here, she already knows about it Leo contacted her last night. Liz and Alex? I guess I just have to tell them, I'll miss them more than anything but this has to be done." Maria said sadly, but she looked at Michael and smiled again giving him a kiss.

"But your coming so everything's going to be okay!" Maria said, Michael smiled and gave her another kiss.

"Everyone's wondering what happened to us, why we're so quiet now and everything." Michael said

"I know. . .they never did guess about the 'big step in human-alien relations' did they?" Maria asked smiling remembering their 'last' night together, let's just say that clothes were off pretty quick. Mihcael smiled again too also remembering.

"Nope and they probably never will." He said

"Well I guess we better get going, we have a lot of fast packing to do!" Maria said jumping up from Michael's lap.

"Okay where to?" He asked her

"My house, so I can pack. Then we can pack your things and then say goodbye to everyone." Maria said as she stopped walking and turned to Michael making sure that he really wanted to go, she looked into his eyes and saw everything that she needed to. They kissed again before they started off to pack their things up for their long trip.

~~~

Hours later they were done with their packing and saying goodbye to Maria's mom, all they had to do was say goodbye to their friends. They walked into the Crashdown knowing that they only had one hour before they had to head off to the airport. Their friends were all sitting around talking.

"Hey guys." Maria said sadly

"What's wrong Maria?" Liz asked standing up quickly along with everyone else.

"Um I need to tell you guys something." Maria said sitting down in the chair next to Michael, she told her friends what she told Michael earlier.

"And I wanted Michael to come with me." Maria finished

"And I'm going." Was all that Michael said to their shocked friends.

"What?" Liz asked

"Oh Lizzie you know I love you all but I have to go, we'll write and call and even come visit when we can!" Maria said crying, Liz got up and took her friend into her arms and hugged her.

"It's okay, we'll all miss you so much!" Liz said now crying with Maria, within seconds the other two girls were hugging Liz and Maria in one big girl group hug crying also.

"We're just glad that your not going home!" Isabel said wiping away her tears.

"We'll come and visit you guys soon!" Tess said backing up giving the three boys room to hug Maria, everyone gave Michael and Maria a hug before they all sat down and talked for the rest of the hour. When their time was up Leo came into the cafe and the two teens left their best friends for a new life. Tess leaned back into Kyle's waiting arms, Isabel sat back down next to Alex and put her head on his shoulder. Liz sat on Max's lap as all three girls started to cry again. The boyfriends all sighed as they tried to comfort their girlfriends the best they could.

Michael kissed his girlfriends head, Maria started to cry again. Michael looked out the window as he watched Roswell go by for the last time in a long while, he didn't notice Maria stop crying. Michael looked down at her when he felt her staring at him.

"Thank you for coming with me." Maria said

"I wouldn't have it any other way." Michael said, they two kissed each other hungrily, but stopped when Piper 'cleared' her voice. They both smiled with Leo at her over protectiveness of Maria, Michael gave her one last kiss before they both settled into the seats of the car and stared out the window wondering what was in store for them.
