Sk8er Boi
He was a boy,
She was a girl,
Can I make it anymore obvious?
He was a punk,
She did ballet,
What more can I say?
He wanted her,
She'd never tell,
Secretly she wanted him as well.
But all of her friends stuck up their nose,
They had a problem with his baggy clothes.
He was a skater boy,
She said 'See ya later boy,'
He wasn't good enough for her.
She had a pretty face,
But her head was up in space,
She needed to come back down to Earth.
Five years from now,
She sits at home,
Feeding the baby,
She's all alone.
She turns on TV,
Guess who she sees?
Skater boy rockin' up MTV.
She calls up her friends,
They already know,
And they've all got tickets to see his show,
She tags along,
And stands in the crowd,
Looks up at the man that she turned down.
He was a skater boy,
She said 'See ya later boy,'
He wasn't good enough for her.
Now he's a super star,
Still livin' on his guitar,
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?
He was a skater boy,
She said 'See ya later boy,'
He wasn't good enough for her.
Now he's a super star,
Still livin' on his guitar,
Does your pretty face see what he's worth?
Sorry girl but you missed out,
Well tough luck that boys mine now,
We are more than just good friends,
This is how the story ends.
Too bad that you couldn't see,
See that man that boy could be,
There is more that meets the eye,
I see the soul that is inside.
He's just a boy,
And I'm just a girl,
Can I make it anymore obvious?
We are in love,
Haven't you heard,
How we rock each other's world.
I'm with the skater boy,
I said 'See ya later boy,'
I'll be back stage after the show.
I'll be at a studio,
Singing the song we wrote,
About a girl you used to know.
I'm with the skater boy,
I said 'See ya later boy,'
I'll be back stage after the show.
I'll be at a studio,
Singing the song we wrote,
About a girl you used to know.
Author's Note: I'm planning it so that fic will not follow the song exactly, but the main idea stems from it. Also, since it is AU, Max and Isabel are NOT brother and sister. And one more thing, I am a very big Isabel fan, so I'm not trying to hate her or anything. I really do like her. So keep in mind this fic is very AU, yeah, lol.
Part One: The Beginning
Max wasn't the most popular guy in school. He had plenty of friends, but they didn't fit into the in crowd. Normally that wouldn't have been a big problem for him, but ever since Liz Parker had moved to Roswell...
Well, he couldn't help trying to get those people to like him. His friends had ridiculed him, and the 'in crowd' wasn't taking to him very well either. However, Liz had seemed to notice him, so he persevered.
Monday morning, West Roswell High
Liz was sitting on the bleachers with Tess, Isabel and Lauryn. They were all discussing the big game on Friday, being cheerleaders they had to plan for the event. Liz had never really been interested in cheerleading, but she did love to dance, ballet was her passion. So when Lauryn had told her that the squad was looking for a new member, she decided to check it out. The squad had become very dance oriented since she had joined, and she found that she liked it a lot. Having friends and being popular, especially with guys, was very appealing as well.
"So I think we should have a pep rally since it's the first game of the season." Isabel said. She was more or less the leader of their group, and that was exactly the way she liked it. She practically controlled the others, their every move had to be approved by her. After all there was no way she would risk her reputation by letting one of the squad members do something stupid.
"That sounds like a good idea." Tess agreed. She always agreed with everything Isabel said, she was like the mirror image of the girl.
"Yeah, maybe we could do post game party too, we always used to do that at my old school. Of course, I only went to a few of them, but they were always a lot of fun." Liz suggested.
"Iz, that would be so much fun! Especially since we're seniors. It could be an invite only thing too, you know so only select people could come..." Lauryn went on.
"Well, I don't know. Wouldn't it be expensive? And it is kind of last minute. Where would it be held?" Isabel ridiculed the idea. She didn't like it mostly because it wasn't hers, but her points were valid.
"Umm, I know it's kind of last minute, but my parents are gonna be out of town this weekend. So maybe we could do it at my house." Liz said.
"Great, so it's settled. We'll buy the food and stuff with some money from the uniform fund. Everyone's uniforms are still so well taken care of..." Lauryn went on.
"I don't know, what do you think Isabel?" Tess asked.
"I guess that would be okay. But we'll have to do two extra car washes to make up the money. And before the weather gets bad." Isabel sighed.
"Oh, this is gonna be so much fun, Iz!" Liz giggled. "Oh crap. I've gotta go." She said looking at her watch. "I'm gonna be late for bio."
"Well meet us here after school so we can plan for the pep rally and the party, kay?" Isabel smiled.
"Got it." Liz agreed. She walked off towards the science wing, wondering how on Earth Lauryn, Isabel, and Tess got away with being twenty minutes late to every one of their fifty-minute classes. Suddenly she noticed Max walk up next to her.
"Hey. Heading to bio?" He asked.
"Yep. You?" Liz asked.
"Yep. I hear we have to pick lab partners today." Max informed her.
"Oh God I don't know anyone in that class. Well, except for Michael and those other guys on the football team. But the last thing I need is pair up with a dumb jock in science." She laughed. "Not that I have anything against jocks but, well, you get it."
"Yeah." He agreed. "It's surprising, but I'm actually pretty good at science."
"Really?" She asked.
"Yeah. I've actually managed A's and B's in all my science classes throughout the years. Unlike some of my other grades." He told her. She smiled at him.
"So do you wanna be my lab partner?" Liz asked.
"Sure. Yeah, that'd be good." He agreed.
"Great." Liz said. The two of them walked into biology together and sat down in their previously assigned seats.
"Good morning class, today we will be choosing lab partners. Please be quick about it, and I will write down who you are with. You will be keeping your partners all year, so choose wisely." Mr. Burnley told them. Everyone got up and began to pair off. Michael Guerin, quarterback of the football team, made his way over to Liz before Max could get to her.
"Hey, you wanna be partners?" He asked. Liz forced a smile while mentally rolling her eyes.
"Umm, actually, Max already asked me so, I'm sorry." She said.
"Listen." Michael whispered as he leaned down and was level with her. "You don't want to hang out with people like him. He's bad for your image, believe me. Did Isabel ever tell you about Jenny?"
"No." Liz replied simply. She tried to ignore him, but it wasn't working very well. "Why?" She asked finally.
"Well, Jenny used to be a cheerleader, she used to have your spot. But went she started going out with Carter Phillips, Max's best friend, Isabel destroyed her. She spread rumors like wildfire, and Jenny moved at the end of last year."
"Oh give me a break. First of all, that sounds like one of those creepy campfire stories that people use to try to freak other people out. And second of all, I'm not going out with Max, he's just my lab partner. So get over it." Liz said. "Oh, and I think you're stuck with Roger Inglewood. Talk about an image wrecker..."
"Hey, we're still partners right?" Max asked as he got over to Liz's desk.
"Yeah, right." Liz said smiling. She looked pointedly at Michael and he walked away.
