Chapter 3: Talking to Max

Max and Liz, who is holding Zan, walk into the spare bedroom at the back of Isabel's apartment. Liz hands Zan over to Max, who puts Zan on the bed so he can go to sleep.

"What happened tonight Liz?" Max asked. "I was worried sick that something had happened to you and Zan."

"It's okay Max, Tess finally did something right." Liz assured Max. Max laid down on the bed next to his son and watched him sleep. Liz sat on the other side of Zan and watched them both. The man she loved most in the world and the child she was growing to love as her own.

"God, I love you Liz and if something were to have happened to you or Zan tonight, I don't know what I would have done." Max said.

"We are okay and that is all that matters." Liz told Max.

"But something could have happened." Max said. "You and Zan could have been in serious danger and it would have been all my fault. You are in this for the rest of your life, but Zan doesn't have to be. So I have decided to give him up."

"Max what are you talking about?" Liz asked. "He is your son and he needs you."

"That's just it Liz, he doesn't need me. He is completely human." Max answered. "He would be better off never knowing me. That way he will never be in danger like we are and he can have a normal life. I owe him that much."

"Max, you don't understand, Zan isn't human." Liz told Max. "Well, he is part human but not entirely. Tess told you he was human because she didn't want you to think he was a liability and get rid of him. Which we wouldn't have, but I guess she didn't trust us. The real reason she came back was to save Zan from the future Kivar was planning out for him. So Kivar will probable be looking for him. That is another reason you can't give him up. We have to protect him."

"We?" Max asked with a smile.

"Well yeah." Liz said. "You, me, and the rest of the gang. Your not alone you know."

"I know." Said Max. "I am just happy to see that you love Zan like your own child."

"Well, of course I do why wouldn't I?" Liz asked.

"I just thought you might be uncomfortable around him, because of who his mother was." Max said.

"I would never not like somebody because of who their parents are." Liz said. "Besides how can you not love somebody this cute." Liz smiled down at Zan, who had just woken up from his small nap and was now smiling up at Liz.

Max watched Liz and Zan. The two people he loved most in the world. The woman he loved and his son. Max wished that Liz was Zan's real mother. Liz looked up at Max and smiled.

"Max, you know Zan is going to need a mother and I was wondering if I could be his adoptive mother?" Liz asked.

"I was hoping you would ask." Max said. "The answered of course is yes. I would be honored if you became Zan's mother." Max kissed Liz on her forehead and smiled down at Zan. Zan looked up at them both and made happy baby noises. He was very happy with this arrangement. Liz kissed Zan and tucked him under the covers. Then Liz and Max walked out of the room to tell everyone the good news.
