- Inside my Mind Part 4 –



-Liz Parker residence, Las Cruces, New Mexico, 2:30AM-

Liz sat up straight in her bed, as her mind wrapped around everything that she just saw.

Max invading her dreams, but finding out that they were his as well-

Hiding in her closet with a complete stranger-

Sean being drunk and going to shoot her-



As she slowly comprehended everything that had happened. She couldn't handle it it was just to unreal. So she did the first thing that came to her flooded mind, she screamed.

1 "AAAHHHHHHH"

"What the hell. Liz honey are you all right." Maria said as she came running into her dearest and best friends room.

"Huh, Maria?"

"Yah, hun Maria. Who else would I be." Maria stated as she sat on Liz's bed and seeing her friends state took her into a hug.

"Liz, it's ok. It was just a bad dream. We all have them sometimes." Maria said soothingly as she stroked Liz's back trying to calm her down.

"No Maria. This was different this was real. I I ... annd." Liz tried to get it out gesturing to the window and to her closet. But it just wasn't working. How could she explain this to Maria? Sure Maria was a little weird herself, but this isn't just something that happened all the time. But if she had any hopes of making it to Roswell she was going to need Maria there the whole way.

"Look, Maria there's something I have to tell you." Liz said as she pulled away from her friends embrace and settled back onto the bed. "You have to promise me you aren't going to flip out."

"Flip out? Hey, its me."

"Ok then here goes ...." Liz continued to explain onto Maria about her encounter in her dream with Max.

"Wait, wait what do you mean. He said Sean was going to do what to you?" Maria asked in total disbelief.

"He said that Sean was going to shoot me right here in this room. And that I had to do something to change that. I know Maria this is really strange. But I believed him. I think with the way things have been going with Sean that it could be possible. I mean he has all ready hit me. I should have gotten out then." Liz said starting to cry.

"Maria, he's going to save me. He's my angel. And we need to find him." Liz said through strangled tears.

"Do you even know where he is? Wait what am I saying! Liz honey I love you, you know that. But this is crazy. I mean you said it was in your dream. So how do you know that this Max guy coming in and telling you all of this wasn't part of your dream as well. I mean face it Chica you do have a very vivid imagination." Maria said with a smile trying to get Liz to cheer up.

"Maria I do, I know what you are saying but I've been over this. He's real. And he lives in Roswell, New Mexico. I'm going there and its up to you whether you want to come or not." Liz said getting off of the bed and pulling her suitcase out from underneath it.

"Liz woah. Hold up girl. You want to leave now!? What about our classes, what about our jobs?"

"Who cares. I'm getting out of here and now. The way I see it is that Roswell is about an hour and a half away from here. We go there now. Find a cheap hotel check in, stay the night. Get up bright and early the next morning and find my Ang-Max."

"Fine. But let me make one thing perfectly clear to you. There will be no such thing as 'bright and early'." Maria said with a laugh as she walked out of Liz's room and down the hall to hers to start packing for what was sure to be one of the most interesting trips she would ever have.
