Secrets Revealed
The next day at school I saw Max, but he avoided my stares, what had I done to be taken out of heaven like this. I wrote down a quick note and handed it to Max, he opened it and smiled and nodded. The note said:
Please meet me behind Lonny's Book Mart after school
-Liz-
The mart was always closed and so we would have some privacy, I could tell him how wrong he was.
As soon as class was over I drove behind the book Mart and Max was already there. He sat on the big air conditioning vent behind it and twirled his thumbs in his hands. He seemed nervous and scared, maybe almost as much as me.
"Hey Max, I just wanted to tell you how stupid you acted the other night..." I didn't finish. He thought I was saying something else and finished with "... I know, I'm sorry, it's just that I really like you Liz, and something came over me...I'm sorry" he finished my sentence, but wrong.
"Max, it's not that...I like you too, why do you think I became a cheerleader, I was...hoping to impress you, to get you to like me, what happened the other night only made me happier, you're all I've been thinking about since then, so Max, since you like me too would you...uh...be my boyfriend?" I asked stupidly as he stared at me, I was bracing my self for heartache.
"I would love to be with you Liz, more then life, but there's a problem, I'm ....I'm not who you think I am ok, just put it that way...I'm not from here" I was just now confused. I had no idea what to say.
"Liz, I'm from somewhere else" he repeated but I still had no idea what he was talking about. "Where are you from" I asked and his finger slowly pointed up. "Up north" I asked and he lifted his finger higher. I couldn't believe the answer so I asked again to confirm my suspicions wrong,
"You're not a...a...ail...alien I mean are you" his hand fell back by his side and his smile was now gone. "I have to go" I had to get away, but his strong arms grabbed my shoulders and he held me closer to him then ever before, I loved his touch, even though firm and strong, I wasn't scared.
"Liz, please don't tell ANYONE...including Maria, please, for our safety, I mean you see..." and he went on and on and finished the story at him coming to Earth, all he could remember anyways. He was practically crying and I walked over and sat in his lap and put my arms over his shoulder.
"Its okay, Max, I'm so sorry" I had no idea what else to say. I couldn't say nothing now, when he leaned over and kissed me. Heaven once again, I was in his arms. After a while it was not an innocent kiss, but a whole make-out session. His left hand was up my shirt, on my back, and right was on my waist. He pulled my shirt all the way off my back and over my head, I did the same. As we got to the part where his hands grabbed my pants I pulled away.
"Max I'm sorry I can't do that, but we can be together, I want to be with you more than anything else" he smiled and we pulled our clothes back on. As we walked out from behind the building, hand in hand, there was Maria arms crossed and angry. I bowed my head; there was no way I could explain.
