Summary: Takes place the summer between S2 & S3. In other words, anything that happened according to S3—has not happened in this story. Somewhat of a sequel to my first story "If you want me to."
Disclaimer: Jason Katims owns everything Roswell…come on now if I owned it would I be writing fanfic??? The song is Truthfully by Lisa Loeb. I'm just borrowing this stuff and I'll put it back when I'm done I promise.
Thanks: Thanks to Elise who absolutely rocks for beta reading this for me!
Feedback: Yes! Please! This is only my second Roswell fic so please let me know any of any suggestions/comments/etc. Don't make me beg.
A/N: the italics indicate song lyrics. Sorry it took so long to get this chapter up—I am just getting smashed by classes. Also my apologies that it's short…I will try and make the next part longer.

Liz turned over in her bed, pulling the blankets over her head.

Peeking out from under the blankets, she looked at her alarm clock. "Nine A.M.?!?!?"
Tap tap tap
"What?!?!?" she almost yelled as she threw back the covers and stalked over to her window, where Max was currently standing. "Do you realize that it is nine o'clock on a Saturday morning and I don't have to work today?" she said as she opened her window to let him in.
"Yes I do own a watch, I am aware that it is nine o'clock and I also know you don't have to work today. That's why I'm here," he explained, stepping through the window and into her bedroom.
Liz walked over and plopped down on the end of her bed. "I'm afraid that I'm not awake enough to understand what you mean."
He walked over and sat down next to her. "Well…I thought since you had the day off, and I had the day off…we could do a little investigating today. You do remember that we discussed this last night don't you?"
"Yes I remember. But Max, is it really necessary to do it this early in the morning?"
"No, but I thought we might want to get some breakfast first."
"Oh, well I have to shower if we are going somewhere for breakfast. You will just have to wait here I guess."
"Hold on Liz, you don't need to go shower or get dressed…"
"Max, where could we possibly go to breakfast with me in my pajamas?"
"Come with me and I'll show you," he said, taking her hand and dragging her to the window and onto the balcony. There on the floor was a small blanket and two glasses of orange juice. "I also brought these," he said, holding up a brown paper bag containing bagels. "I thought maybe a little breakfast picnic might be fun."
"Ooh yummy!" Liz squealed, sitting down and reaching into the bag for a bagel. "So what is the plan for today?"
"Well as soon as we finish eating breakfast we can call Kyle and ask if we could go through Tess's things. If nothing turns up there, I thought we might take a look at her and Nasedo's old place, and maybe a trip out to the pod chamber."
"Sounds like a busy day to me. Are you ready for this Max?"
"Yeah, I think so…"
"Well you had better figure it out before I get out of the shower…" Liz laughed as she stood up to go back inside. "Stay here and finish eating, I'll be out soon."
"Alright," he said as he leaned back on the blanket and closed his eyes. "I'll be right here waiting for you."

This isn't what I like to call flattery,
but I know that I believe I've found what's true,

Truthfully, I can't ignore you, cause I've been waiting for you.
Truthfully, I'm not desperate, I haven't changed my mind since we first met,
but the last thing that I want to do is to tell you that I'm right for you.
