Max got up and got dressed for the meeting with his friends
Max got up and got dressed for the meeting with his friends. He spared a glance to his laptop, but then shook his head. For the first time meeting up with AlienLuvR , he was reluctant to speak to her. He knew he shouldn't have pushed for an answer, but he couldn't figure out why she was so defensive… Just what kind of guy was she having problems with? She said he was a really good guy, but she was reluctant to say more about him.
Should he go on and apologize to her? Did he really do anything that need apologizing? He didn't think so, but lately he didn't know anything about girls. He thought he knew Liz, thought he knew what she was going through, but he was wrong. Here she was trying to save the Earth from supposed destruction by denying the very thing she wanted… He thought she was just going through a phase or was stepping back because of the whole Destiny issue.
He sighed before walking out of the room. He'd have to think it over and figure it out later on. He had more pressing things to think about right now. A big something that went by the name of Liz. He grabbed his car keys and went to see if Isabel was finished primping. He leaned against the doorjamb, watching Isabel fix her hair back into a barette, leaving some loose curls to frame her face. Her brown gaze met his in the mirror before she turned to face him.
"Ready?" She fussed a few more minutes then reached for her purse. He nodded as he preceded her out of the room and downstairs. They got into the vehicle and headed out of the driveway.
"What do you think will happen now?" Isabel turned to study her brother, wondering what his thoughts were on everything that happened since last night. He didn't say much last night, and he was very quiet this morning.
"I'm not sure… At least we aren't drifting apart, but I'm not sure how things are going to go… Especially with Liz and I."
"Can you forgive her for doing this? I know she had a good reason, but she lied and hurt you."
He thought it over and knew without a shadow of a doubt that he could. He loved her that much for all that she did for him, for all that she was, and just because he couldn't help himself. He couldn't live without her, so he couldn't not forgive her.
"Yeah. I can forgive her." That was all they said to each other as they drove the streets of Roswell in the direction of the Crashdown.
