May 17, 2002 Roswell, New Mexico... The Evan's House

Yesterday I found out that my girlfriend had been cheating on me. In a case like that most guys would be pissed off as hell. But surprisingly or not, I wasn't. I didn't give fuck.

It didn't take me long, after our break up, to come to the realization that I really wasn't into Liz from the start. The only reason I started dating her was because of that stupid letter that she delivered to my locker. Oh yeah and the fact that the girl that I really wanted was already with someone else. So, why mope after the best when second best was readily available? Well not even second best. More like fourth, fifth, wait… one hundred and ninety ninth best.

Okay, wait I shouldn't put Liz down like that but it was pretty obvious from the start that she and I just did not suit. I don't even know why I wasted my time. Oh yeah, now I know. I was desperate at the time. Sigh. Desperation is a downfall I must never surrender to again.

I would have came out better dating Liz's best friend Tess. At least she wouldn't have cheated on me with a guy who's bathing habits were questionable. Jordan Poe, ugh, could he possible get any more bummish?

Anyway, enough about my break up with that skank ho who would willingly sleep with anything in pants. Hmm…? 'Okay Max strike that image. lol'

My day started out like any other boring day in Roswell. I rolled out of bed at the crack of dawn. I immediately dropped to the floor and treated my self to one hundred push-ups; then I headed off to the shower to get ready for school.

The first part of the day passed pretty quickly. I easily slipped into my persona as perfect Max Evans, smartest guy in West Roswell High. Liz approached me after my second period class.


"Max? Can we talk?" She asked quietly.

Distaste filled my every pore. Must I have this talk with the ho of Jordan Poe?



"I think I said all that I had to say to you yesterday." I slammed my locker door shut and started to walk off.

She followed persistently. "Max, let me explain. What you saw was nothing."

I turned sharply to face her. "Nothing? I caught you having sex with Jordan Poe and you call that nothing?"

"Max it was an accident." She pleaded.

I laughed sharply. "Some fucking accident." I tried to keep my voice from rising. I didn't want to bring attention to my problems. "Liz you're a slut as well as a liar. And I really don't want to be associated with you any longer. So could you please forget that I was so stupid as to ever date you?"

Before she could speak any further Maria Deluca and my sister Isabel chose to walk up at that moment. "Hey babe what's going on?"

"Just getting rid of some trash." I said ignoring the flash of hurt that passed across Liz's face. I didn't care. She deserved it.

I noticed a sly grin pass across Maria's face as she looked at Liz. 'What does that mean?' I wondered.

"Hey Liz." Maria grinned. "Anyway, you two I've already asked everyone else so now you're the last. My mom is going out of town today and she said that I could have some friends over. So do y'all wanna come?"

"Yeah sounds like fun." I answered.

"Okay then it's settled. Everyone is meeting at my house after school." She smiled at me.

Damn she's so sexy; I couldn't help thinking to myself. "See ya then." I turned and walked off before Liz could say anything else to me.

A few minutes' later thoughts of Liz completely fled my mind as I thought about the girl that I really wanted to be with. Damn if I was bold and able to shed the mask of Max Evans, I would have had her by now. I could still have her all I had to do was kill her boyfriend. Lol, you got scared there didn't ya?

I might want to kill him but I'm too much of a man to do so. Damn this perfect complex.
