Coldplay
'Yellow'
Look at the stars; look how they shine for you And everything you do Yeah, they were all yellow
I came along; I wrote a song for you And all the things you do And it was called yellow
So then I took my turn Oh what a thing to have done And it was all yellow
Your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful D'you know? You know I love you so You know I love you so
I swam across; I jumped across for you Oh what a thing to do 'Cos you were all yellow
I drew a line; I drew a line for you Oh what a thing to do And it was all yellow
And your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones Turn into something beautiful D'you know? For you I bleed myself dry For you I bleed myself dry
It's true Look how they shine for you Look how they shine for you Look how they shine for... Look how they shine for you Look how they shine for you Look how they shine
Look at the stars Look how they shine for you And all the things that you do
---------------- Now, back to the story!!!
Chapter Eight- Max's POV
Max awoke again at eleven o'clock. The night's events came back to him instantly and he closed his eyes, wincing as he went.
' How the hell did all that happen in fifteen years (!!!) and I didn't even realize it! Hey, fifteen years! That would make it, 2016! Nothing seems to be changed much. Liz looks different. She has red hair! And green eyes! I wonder why that is?'
He decided to get up, and finding some of his old clothes in the cupboards, decided to get dressed. 'I must look really weird' he thought to himself as he pulled on a Coldplay T-shirt, and Levi jeans.
The first person he was when he walked downstairs was Kyle. He was sitting in the sitting room, eating a bowl of corn flakes, watching the Lakers play the Chicago bulls. (a/n: I have absolutely no idea about American sports apart that you call rugby, football, and football, soccer. Is that right?)
When he went through to the kitchen, there was another man at the table, eating toast with Isabel. It seemed that they were in deep conversation about something. Neither of them noticed him behind them, so Max wasn't surprised when Isabel jumped when he said 'Hi'.
" Hey, Max. How much did you hear?" she asked suspiciously.
" Not much, you were whispering. Why is Kyle here, and who's he?" he asked his sister.
" Did Liz tell you much?" asked the man at the table.
" You know Liz?"
" Well, duh! I am her brother!" he said.
" Her brother?" Max stammered. " I didn't know she had a brother?"
" Yeah, well, she does. I'm her big half-bro. Leo. Pleased to meet you, finally." Leo shook Max's hand. "So what did she tell you?"
" A lot of horrible stuff."
" Well, you better put on a strong disguise if you want to go outside at anytime. Did she tell you how abusive you were?"
" Bits and pieces. Really, I don't want to talk about it right now. Uh, where's Liz?"
" She's with Isabel." Said Kyle coming up behind him. "Glad to have the real you back." He also shook his hand.
" Uh, Kyle, I don't mean to be rude, but what are you doing here, in your pajamas?"
" Liz didn't tell you that much did she? She told you about you, but not the real world?" he asked.
" Yeah, that's about it. What happened?"
" Sit down mate, I don't want you to punch me."
" Okay." Max sat.
" Well, about 5 years after that evil guy took you, me and Isabel had a joint wedding with Michael and Maria."
" What about Alex?"
" He stayed in Sweden with his girlfriend, Carla. They finally got married about 7 years ago now?" she asked Kyle.
" You don't really have a exactly brilliant memory do you Iz?" He asked Isabel, but when she frowned and glared at his, he stopped laughing. " Uh, it was 9 years ago." He said quietly.
" Oh. What about Liz?"
" She went to New York about 12 years to look for her real mum, finding she died, Liz stayed with friends of her mums', found her brother when he got married to one of these girls. She came back just last week."
" Uh, Liz, don't you think you're missing out something important?" Asked Kyle.
" Liz can tell him." She said. The door slammed.
" Hey, morning sleepyhead!" she said cheerfully, dragging Isabel in tow. " Tell him what?"
" About Isabel." Said Kyle.
" Hey I should know about my own sister, okay?"
" Wrong Isabel." Said Leo.
" Huh?" asked Max, looking confused.
" I said, 'wrong Isabel'."
" I heard what you said Leo, I just don't know what you meant."
" I meant, not your sister."
" Okay, I get that." The TV blared on, a 'sorry' was yelled through to the kitchen.
" Who was that?" asked Max, looking even more confused.
Everyone looked at Liz. She raised an eyebrow. " Go look for yourself."
Max trudged through to the sitting room, spotted young Isabel, and asked, "who are you?"
" Isabel. Who are you?" the small girl answered sharply.
" Max." The girl gasped. " What's wrong?" he asked.
" Mum?!" yelled the little girl.
Liz came through, and Isabel ran to her. Liz hugged her tightly and held her close.
