Disclaimer: I don't own Roswell, but I do own this story and it's plot,
etc. (but not the characters, obviously).
Summary: AU Michael is still in love with his ex-girlfriend. While trying
to convince her that they should get back together he meets the new girl
who he is strangely attracted to. Who's he gonna choose?
Maria/Michael/Isabel with subplot for Liz/Max/Tess too!
Outside the school building, in the grounds...
"So Michael, what do you think?" Kyle asked his friend. Michael didn't say anything - just kept staring into the distance. "Michael!? Michael stop it!" he pulled him back round. "Michael when are you gonna forget about her?" "Never." "Look, Michael, you should have known better than to date her. I warned you but you did anyway and now she's dumped you and you're moping around the whole time. You have to forget about her and get on with your life. She certainly has." Michael looked towards where Kyle was gesturing and saw a pretty girl talking to a dark-haired boy. Michael didn't say anything - he just went back to looking at the floor. The bell rang. Kyle said, "Come on Michael, We have to get to class." "Yeah. You go, I-I'll be right there." "Okay." Kyle jogged into the school. Michael dragged himself off the ledge. With a sigh he risked one last look at the girl who broke his heart. She flirtily tossed her blonde hair over her shoulder, smiling sweetly. He stuffed his hands into his pockets. She may not know it yet, but we're meant to be together. Always were. Me and Isabel Jones.
Inside school, in the hallway...
"...And this one here," Liz pointed to the door on her left, "is the Biology lab." She flung it open and then shut. Maria wrinkled her nose. "I don't really like Biology very much." "Are you crazy? I love it! It's my favourite subject," Liz chirped before grabbing Maria by the hand and leading her down the hallway. "Okay, now, seeing as this is your first day the teachers here aren't gonna be that hard on you, but you so have to watch out for Mr. Wilkins. He's totally evil." "I thought all teachers were totally evil," Maria said. "Well, if that's true then Wilkins is like the head of all evil - maybe even Satan." "Ooh. We had a Satan in my old school - but he was Mr. Anstruther. Anyone else to watch out for?" Liz referred to Maria's timetable again before giving it back to her. "No teachers, but Isabel Jones is a definite. She's sorta the most popular girl in school and, well, if you're on her bad side your basically," Liz let go of Maria's hand and pretended to cut her neck off. "I so get you, I hate girls like those." Liz was about to say something when Maria saw a guy come and tap her on the shoulder from behind. Liz twirled around and then grinned. "Hey, Max." "Hey, Liz." He handed her some sheets. "This is what Mr. Desmond gave on Tuesday in English when you weren't here."
"Oh right," she said, taking them from him. "Thanks. So, have you met Maria?" "No." "Well then, Max this is Maria, Maria this is Max." "Hi," he said. "Hi," she shook his hand. The bell rang. "I gotta get to class. It was nice to meet you," he told Maria. "Bye." "Bye." "Bye, Max." Liz waved. Maria and Liz began to make their way to their next lesson. "He was cute. Seemed nice." "He is." "Which one?" Maria joked. "Both!" Liz giggled. "So in which way is he your boyfriend? Boy who's a friend or...?" "No!" Liz said, "He's just my friend. We're usually lab partners." "Oh, so that's why we enjoy Biology so much." "Maria! Well okay," Liz confessed. "Maybe there is this little thing..." "Maybe?" "Okay, so I definitely have this big thing for him! But he doesn't know! - and it's gonna stay that way." "Okay, okay, I won't tell. But what about him?" "I don' know," sighed Liz. "We've been friends for ages, he'll probably think of me as one forever. He's really nice but he never gets a clue!" "Well, we'll work on him. And besides he can't not be 'in the know' forever, Liz! Oops sorry, "Maria said as she had accidentally bumped in to someone. "Doesn't matter," they mumbled before running into the nearby classroom. "That's Michael," Liz told Maria as they walked further on. "He's an okay guy, but he's got this whole big deal.. remember that girl Isabel I was telling you about?" "Ya." "Well, she..." Liz continued to tell Maria the whole Michael/Isabel story on their way to class.
