To the folks who reveiwed: I'm revealing WHY Tess and Alex are back in this chapter, I knew someone was gonna bring that up! :)
"I don't like this idea." Alex muttered as they walked up to the Ramirez doorstep.
"Of course you don't." Tess almost laughed. Alex glared at her, and Tess bowed her head down apologetically. Will he ever just forgive me? I know it's alot to ask, but the Alex I knew was forgiving. Especially to Isabel. Guess I'm not the blonde alien he wanted. Tess ran her hand over her hair and face, turning her back to bombshell blonde and all. She rang the doorbell, it was only a few seconds later that Jesse Ramirez opened the door.
"T-tess?" Jesse almost jumped. "I thought you...you know...FBI facility...BOOM?" Jesse whispered.
"Ya, it's confusing. We really need your help." Tess said.
"Um, okay, come in." Jesse said. "I'm kinda packing, ready to leave for Boston." Jesse said, walking into his and Isabel's apartment.
"It has her touch to it." Alex said, looking around.
"Hey, uh, who are you? Another...you know, 'foreigner'?" Jesse asked.
"No. I'm Alex Whitman." Alex said, practically glaring at Jesse.
"Oh. Nice to meet you." Jesse said, extending his hand.
"What? Never heard of me, at all?" Alex asked. Jesse shook his head and Alex glared.
"Okay," Tess said, cutting inbetween them. "Jesse we need a vechicle. We also need to know where the others went."
"Um, the vechicle I can get you- I myself do not know where they went. But I'd head toward the Arizona Border, that much I know from Valenti, and that's all I know." Jesse replied, he furrowed his brow. "But you still haven't told me why you're here."
"Okay, Jesse, make the call, I'll explain everything." Tess said, sitting down on the couch. Alex sat next to her, his mood did not change.
"Hey, Frank, ya, I need a car. Just a l;ittle thing, nothing fancy, fit for two? Thanks." Jesse said. That was easy. Jesse walked into the living room. "Okay now, explain."
"Well. Let's just say all Hell broke loose." Tess said. Jesse arched a brow. "No, listen, ok, I killed Alex." Tess said with a big sigh. Alex glanced at her. Wow. "And I do regret it." Tess said, looking directly at Alex. "And then I sacrificed myself for Zan when I blew up the FBI facility. Obviously, that earned me some kudos points. So, ya, I'm up there. Heaven. Actually there, I even met this girl from Sunnydale named Tara, but anyway. It was like what, less than an hour after I got there, when all of sudden it's like this huge earthquake or something and- I find Alex at the entrance to Roswell, New Mexico. So... what I'm saying is, what I think I'm saying is-"
"Even angels fall." Alex cut in. "Apparently, everyone up there did, like...come back to Earth, when I came down, I think I even saw Grandma Claudia. Uh, that's Liz's Grandma." Alex said. "Hey, wouldn't that Nasedo guy be around? And Pierce?" Alex asked Tess.
"Like you think they would be in Heaven? Try the other side." Tess laughed. They both looked at Jesse whose mouth was hanging open. There was a honk from outside. "Thanks, Jesse. Thanks so much." Tess said, getting up and walking to the door. Alex glared at Jesse for one last moment before following Tess.
"If you see Isabel...tell her I love her." Jesse added. Tess nodded and Alex cringed. The two got outside, there was an old, old mercedes in the driveway.
"So, you jealous?" Tess asked, hopping into the driver's seat. Alex glared at her.
"Do I need to remind you about how you ruined my life?" Alex asked. "We're still going to find her. I don't care about Jesse. I love Isabel." Alex's voice turned weak and he glanced out the window as Tess pulled out and drove along the exit of Roswell.
A few hours of silence later they pulled up at a fast food restuarant.
"Do you even have any money?" Alex asked Tess.
"Uh...no. You didn't happen to have cash in your wallet and have your wallet with you when I killed you?"
"No." Alex said, slightly glaring accusingly.
"Then, we'll just have to rob someone or someplace." Tess laughed.
"Easy for you to say." Alex muttered.
"Alex, what have you got to lose, you're dead!"
"Stop reminding me." Alex groaned. He looked down and twidled his thumbs for a few moments. "Okay, what's the plan?"
"I don't like this idea." Alex muttered as they walked up to the Ramirez doorstep.
"Of course you don't." Tess almost laughed. Alex glared at her, and Tess bowed her head down apologetically. Will he ever just forgive me? I know it's alot to ask, but the Alex I knew was forgiving.
