Ch. 4
Building Friendships
Liz's POV
"Do you think Michael's missed me?" Maria asked, curled in a ball against her seat.
"Maria," I paused, "You know he has, but you also know that he'd rather die then let you know he has." I sighed, "I hope you and Alex get what you want."
*Smile*
*Okay now look at the road and drive.* I told myself.
"Liz." Maria put her hand on my shoulder.
"What Maria." I muttered, dreading the words that would come flying out of her mouth any second.
*Please don't do it Maria* I prayed inside.
"Max still loves you, you know." Maria blurted out without thinking, "I really think that he regrets what happened between him and Tess and he's come back to be with you."
"Yea? Well I sure as hell don't regret what I did with Kyle." I lied.
"Really? Is that why he left you this morning?" Maria shot.
Ouch. Shit. Could this chick be anymore hurtful?
I ignored her last comment and kept my eyes on the road ahead.
"Liz. I'm sorry, but… I just have to know if you still love Max."
I rolled my eyes dramatically and turned to face her, "Maria. I don't need to hear this right now."
"Okay… But, think about it Liz. And uh, can you please keep your eyes on the road? Cuz I'd like to live till I'm at least 30. Cuz you know after you hit 30 it's all over anyways." She babbled.
"Maria," I turned my attention back to the road, "You're babbling."
"Y-es I am." She crossed her arms defensively.
"Well stop." I snapped.
"Why are you like seriously acting like a major bitch today?" Maria spat.
"I said shut up Maria!" I yelled.
"Why? Because I am saying things that you don't want to hear? Too bad Liz Parker!"
"Shut it Maria!"
"Why are you still so mad about Max and Tess fucking? It's not like he deliberately did it just to piss you off… Well actually he did." Maria shrugged.
"MARIA! SHUT THE FUCK UP!" I screamed at her.
"Watch the road!" Maria yelped.
"You are not making my driving any more safe for you Maria." I replied slamming my foot to the accelerator. And this is the reason I wanted to drive all the way by myself. There is no way I was going to make it to Roswell with a nagging Maria at this moment. "You know what Maria." I yelled over her voice, screeching to a halt, "Get out, you're riding with Alex." I stretched my head out the window to Alex, who had stopped behind us.
"What happened?" He asked worried.
"Maria happened. Alex, I can't tolerate her at this exact moment and time of crisis that I am SO excruciatingly going through. So therefore I have deduced that YOU are taking Maria with you to Roswell." I glanced over to a steaming Maria Deluca, "Sorry Maria but I can't handle this. Not right now." I shook my head and looked at the steering wheel.
"Fine." She replied so breezy I thought she was telling ME what to do.
"O-okay then. It's settled, no hard feeling right?" I asked a bit worried at her behavior.
"Oh. No. Liz Parker. I'm fine and dandy." Her grin was wide and fake, "I mean I only devoted all my life to helping you with YOU'RE problems that not only did you never like to listen to MY problems but when I try to help you with YOUR problems, when I KNOW you want to talk about it, you blow up at me and kick me out?! HELL NO Liz, I'm not leaving this seat." She sat crossed armed and determined.
"Fine! Have it your way! But I'm not slowing down and I'm not turning down the music!" I peeled out of the side road and blasted Linkon Park's 'One Step Closer' as loud as my ears could handle it. I stole a fast glance to my right at Maria. She was sitting in her seat, knee's tucked in and covering her ears. That's what she gets… So what if I'm a bitch… I have every damn right to be! Right?
Hey!
You say I'm a bitch like it's a bad thing…
***
Isabel's POV
Look at them. Just sitting they're waiting for Liz, Maria and Alex. Not one of them thinking about the 2 years that Tess Harding stole from them. Stole from US. Stole from ME. She stole 2 wonderful years of Alex Whitman's kisses, hugs and smart-ass remarks. From me. Would things between Alex and me ever be the same? Or were they permanently screwed up for the rest of our lives?
I curse Tess Harding for everything she's done. Just because Max set her free did not mean that I wasn't going to get my revenge. Not in this lifetime will I let Tess get another chance.
That bitch was going down.
Even if I had to go through with it alone she would pay.
"Isabel." Michael shook me.
"Huh?" I had spaced out again.
"What were you thinking about?"
"Nothing." I muttered.
"Why have you been shutting me out since we got here?" He grumbled.
"I just, I just-."
"I just, I just- You just what Isabel? You just what?" Michael barked.
"You know you don't have to be such an asshole all the time Michael." I snapped back.
"Well you know what Isabel? I am an asshole. So deal with it."
"I have been Michael! For two whole YEARS! I have been putting up with your shit! Well you know what!? I'm tired of it! I'm tired of everything! Tess has ruined my life and You and Max just… God you just let her go! You just let her leave with a slap on the wrist!" I screamed outraged.
"Isabel- I-I." Michael stuttered, giving me a chance to get back at him for a moment.
"I-I-I you what Michael! You what?!" I yelled.
"You know you don't have to be such a bitch all the time." He said.
"Well you know what Michael?" I paused, feeling the déjà vu hit me like a bullet, "I am a bitch. So deal with it." I walked away casually, running into my brother.
"Iz." Max looked at me hurt.
"What?" I snapped.
"Did you really mean what you just said?" His eyes burned holes into my soul from the sadness radiating from them.
"God Max, your aura is a wreck." I whispered –another advancement to our power's, we can see people's aura's.
"Yea, well yours isn't so great either." He rubbed the back of his neck and looked all around me.
"Well you shouldn't have let her go like that Max. You just- I don't even think I can talk to you or Michael right now." I stepped around him and stride over to Midea, who was huddled in a tiny ball on the floor. "Want me to make that softer?" I offered to her.
"I can do it." She lied.
"Here," I put my hand to the ground beneath her and felt the molecules soften and spread apart into mush, "Better?"
"Yes. Thank you." She whispered.
"So how did you find my brother?" I asked lying on my back beside her, looking up to the stars. Just hours ago I was up there…
"Huh?" Midea broke my spacious thoughts.
Note to self: STOP SPACING OUT!
"How did you find your way to us?" I repeated differently.
"Oh, uh. Actually I was supposed to find you, but Max found me, he saved me." Hers eyes looked away and a small smile touched her full lips.
"How?" I asked.
"I was about to… To be executed by Khivar for not agreeing to be his… His…" Midea started to breathe loud and deep kinda hyperventilating.
"Queen?" I finished. "Yea, been there, done that. Not gonna happen in this lifetime. So after I left him he tried to weasel his way into your pants huh?" I was blunt and could tell she wasn't used to behavior such as mine, so I softened my tone, "Sorry, but am I right?" I scanned her aura for signs of discomfort. None, her Fuchsia aura sparkled with lime green curiousness, probably because she had never been to earth.
"Yea, I guess you could say that." Midea looked shameful, forest green streaks racing around in her aura like massive thunder bolts.
"He's hard to refuse, I'll tell ya that," I admitted to my attraction to Khivar, a first to anyone's ears.
"You mean you were attracted to him too?" Midea's eye's opened wide.
"Uh, yea." I laughed. DUH! The guy was a male sex god for goodness sakes!
She smiled shy, "You're very beautiful you know Isabel, I don't know why he ever gave up on you to pursue me." Her smile faded.
I glanced at her profile, tilting my head a bit. Midea was a beautiful girl, around our own age but just a slight bit younger. Her hair was so curly it spiraled down her back; it had golden highlights that I'd kill for.
And her eyes, her eyes were an emerald green that was so green they sparkled. Every time I looked at her I find myself staring for so long that I start to feel as if she is somehow familiar to someone I know.
Her face held high cheekbones and perfectly aligned wither eyes and nose. Her nose was small and petite a little like Maria Deluca's I noticed. Her lips were perfection, they were full and soft I could tell. She was gorgeous!
Midea's body was elegant and somehow supermodel perfect. She had a bounce to her walk as if she knew things would always work out for her. As if she knew luck was on her side, and when she met me, the bounce had disappeared somehow. Why, I could never fully understand but now, when I see her look from Max to me I begin to somehow understand a little bit.
I intimidate her because of the way I speak to others. She is frightened of me because of the way I am. She feels like nothing next to me, but she doesn't even know that I, Isabel Amanda Evans actually feel like nothing next to HER!
"I don't know why he gave up on you at all." I smiled, touching her cheek gently.
