*****************Part 2**********************

Michael finally reached the Crashdown. Roswell still looked the same as he remembered. The two years Michael was away, not a day went by he didn't dream about the day he would return to his Maria. The only person he could and would ever love. When they returned to his planet everyone there expected him and Isabel to marry again but it was never even an option. Tess and Max tried to live together but in the end it would never work because in his heart he would always love Liz and everyone knew that. They were made for each other just like he was made for Maria. No one could convince him otherwise.

Michael walked through the doors to the Crashdown.

Once Maria heard the ring on the doors she had a chill that ran through her spine. She knew it was Michael before she even turned around. The only sound heard in the room was that of the broken dishes that fell out Maria's hands as she got her first glimpse of Michael in two years. She never dreamed this day would happen. She had so many emotions running through her.

Liz heard the sound of the broken dishes and rushed through the doors from the back room. She saw Michael and went up to Maria.

"Maria I'll clean this up go talk to Michael."

Maria just stood there in shock until Michael finally walked up to her.

"Let's go in the back."

Maria led Michael in the back room.

"Michael I can't believe your back. I never thought I'd see you again Michael." A single tear fell from her eyes.

Michael wiped the tear away with his thumb. "Shhh.... It's alright Maria." Michael reached out and held Maria in his arms.

"Maria, I want you to know that it was a mistake leaving. I love you so much and I want to be with you now."

"Michael there's something I need to tell you."

"What is it Maria?"

"I have a child."
