She closed her eyes tightly blocking out the painful blinding lights above, not wanting to believe what he had said- not wanting it to be true.
"Y-you have to go?" She asked opening her sullen eyes and looking over at him.
"You know I don't want to Liz but I have to. I can't stay here anymore. For one, it is too dangerous in Roswell and second, they need me up there. I am their king- I have to go. We all have to go." He shook his head as he looked down at his hands tearing away from her tear-stained face. He swallowed the lump in his throat before going on. "It won't be long. I just- "
"And how long is not long Max? How long do you expect me to live while you are off on some other planet. I mean, do you understand how severely messed up this is? I can't believe I am dealing with this. Most girls get mad when their boyfriend goes off on a one week vacation and you are going to another planet!" Liz heard her voice raising and she closed her mouth trying to suppress the need to lie on the floor and cry.
He looked at her with regret, "probably a few years." He sighed as she shook her head and looked away. "Nothing will change Liz. I still love you- nothing can change that."
"Don't you get it Max? You're going to be in another galaxy! How can you say nothing will be different? How can you believe that?" She felt the tears clogging her voice preventing her from going on and she looked back over at Max and saw the tears gleam in his eyes.
"I love you so much Liz. Things are going to change- but I will always love you. That will never change." She looked at him and she saw the honesty in his eyes and she nodded slowly. "You know I'll always love you Max. I always have- and I will forever."

It had been weeks since they had left- one day of goodbyes and they were gone for who knows how long. Liz half listened as her English teacher droned on as she remembered the way he had looked at her when he said goodbye.
*Flashback*
You know we'll be back don't you?" Max said looking briefly over at Isabel, Michael, Maria, and Kyle before glancing back at Liz.
"Yeah I know." She said softly not meeting his eyes. He reached over and put his index finger under her chin lifting it up so she was looking at him.
"I'll always love you Liz. I always have loved you and I always will. You're my life- you're my existence."
"Just be careful alright?" She asked her voice cracking as she held his gaze.
"I'll be so careful for you Liz. And I'll be back- believe me I'll be back," he took a step closing the distance between them and brushed his lips up against hers. Reluctantly he pulled away and looked at her once before taking a step back and leaving the room.
*End of Flashback*
Liz sighed as she heard the bell ring and her memory of the day not long ago ended. She stuffed her books back into her back and swung it over her shoulders heading out into the hall. She dreaded going to Science- science where she had always been Max's lab partner- Science where she knew she would face the inevitable empty chair to go along with her empty heart.
