Max, Michael, Isabel, and I stand there as Liz runs off. As Liz runs down the hill I wish for her to trip and fall to her death but lucky her she doesn't. Someone asks what do we do now, I wasn't listening I was looking at Max, the love of my life.
"Will I don't know? I don't know what you have to do but I'm running after Liz. I love her." As Max spoke those 3 words my heart was ripped in half and throw to the ground and spitted on.
"Max," I said, "you can't."
"Why not"
"Because we need to plan what to do about the evil aliens and …"
"Tess you are the only evil alien here." Screamed Max, "If it wasn't for you Liz and I would be together and happy. We would be …"
"If you were meant to be together then why did the hell she run from you and leave you with your destiny. Huh?" I stated as I began to cry.
"Max she is right." Isabel butted in.
"Shut up Isabel. You don't have to worry about your soul mate running and never coming back because you have never let anyone get close to you. You can't handle the fact that someone may just love you for who and what you are." Max fired back to Isabel.
Isabel was so enraged by what Max just said to her. In that moment she slapped Max across the face. I wasn't happy to see Max be slapped because I love him so much. No one spoke to Max. Isabel and Michael asked if they could get a ride home with me. Letting Max take the jeep home.
After we headed back I was the first to speak. "Do you think that I'm evil?"
"Tess I know I don't think that of you. You are the reason why we now know so much about who we are. If it wasn't for you we be died or being kidnapped by the FBI. Don't listen to Max he doesn't want to face that he is alien not human." Michael said trying to calm me.
"Yeah Tess, Michael is right. I have never thought you meant harm on us. Your destiny is the only thing you know of. Plus Max is being a jerk. He has been like this since he healed Liz. See he thinks he is only human not alien." Isabel said reassuring me.
"Thanks Michael and Isabel." We continued driving in silence. When I reached Michael's, Isabel was the first to speak, "Tess I'm going get out here. I can't go home so I need you to cover for me if my mom calls your house cause I'll tell her I'm at your house. I don't want to see Max tonight cause I'll tell him off and regret it tomorrow. Can you please do that for me?" pleaded Isabel.
"Yes I will. You don't have to worry about it." Finally I drove home to where I live by myself since Nasdeo became Agent Pierce. I walked into the big empty house head to the refrigerator where I grabbed comfort food and Grape Juice. Then headed to my room and turned on the light and looked around. "Why did I have to be reborn into this stupid world where no one loves me? Why me?" I said out loud. I turned on my cd player on to my favorite song. Crash and Burn! Something I wished happened to Max for making all of us feel like shit! I sat on my bed eating and hugging a favorite pillow that was shaped as a heart. I began to daydream about Liz and I fighting over max at the Crashdown. I pull on her hair and it comes flying off. A Wig! Under the wig was strawberry blond hair that hasn't been washed in weeks or months. Max takes a hold of my and tells me he loves me because Liz is really an ugly loser human. Then the dream turns into me opening my bedroom door and seeing Max there. I ask what does he want and he says that he is sorry and he made a mistake by running after Liz today. He should have stayed with me.
"Tess you there?"
I woke up for falling asleep. Someone was knocking on my door. I open it and there stands Max. Wow dejuve.
"Tess before you say for me to leave I want to say that I'm sorry for freaking out at you and Isabel today. After I left you guys I caught up to Liz. She said that if I loved her like she thought I did I should have never run after her. She told me that she doesn't love me anymore because she only loves the human me. I realized that when I was with her I never felt at all alien like when I kiss you. Like this." Max takes a hold of me and kisses me with everything he has in him. I felt like I was human in some way. I had never felt human before. I bought the alien out of him and he bought the human out of me. As we parted it felt like a magnet pulled us together again cause we didn't stop kissing for a few more minutes. It took all of our will power to stop kissing each other.
"Max is this a dream? Cuz if so I don't want to wake up. " I wished.
"No Tess it isn't. I have to go now cause if I don't I'll never go home again. I have to go now. Just one more kiss okay Tess." Max said sadly until he said one more kiss with a smile to light up the world.
"Please don't go. If you have to go two more kiss. Okay?" I asked.
"Okay!"
With that we kissed more than two more times. Finally we broke apart and he left smiling. And I lay in bed not wanting to sleep. I knew the next day everything was going to be okay.
I went to bed last night happy and very positive about today. I was wrong like I always have been in my life.
I got this morning refresh and ready to live my life.
Kyle and Jim had left without me cuz they had stuff to do. So I was just finishing eating breakfast when there was a knock at the door. I went to answer it. When I answered the door all there was, was a single rose with a note attached to it was a note.
'Meet me at my locker before 1st period'
love Max
I grabbed my school stuff and left the house. I entered the school; it was busy since it was the last day of school. As I was walking I could feel someone's eyes on me.
I turned around and there was Maria.
"You slut! How darn you become between Max and Liz like that." Maria was all in my face and everyone in hall stopped and was looking at us.
"It was Liz's choice to walk away. And if you would like to live a long life, never call me a slut again." I fired back at her and turned to walk away from her when she screamed, " I'm not afraid of you, slut."
I snapped around and was gathering energy to throw at her when I heard a voice telling Maria to leave or else. Max was standing behind me. With him were Michael and Isabel. At that moment I knew I had really found my family.
After the conflict with Maria in the hall. We all went to our classes. My first class was with Maria and Liz. They were looking at me and giving me dirty looks. I could feel the hate pouring out of them. So I did what any alien did. I got even. I mind warped Maria into seeing Michael and Isabel as a big happy family with their son and how Michael was so much more happier with Isabel. To Liz I made her see Max as king and next to him was his queen (me of course), they were standing outside in a courtyard. There was a crowd of people chanting 'kill her'. They were talking about the person with the rope around her neck. It was Liz. She was pleading with Max and telling him that I was evil and that he really loved her. He tells her that he never loved her, the only reason he saved her that day was that he knew that she would do anything to help him. All he wanted was to find Tess. He pulls a lever and Liz is hung.
I end the wrap and could see the tears falling down their faces. Everyone in the class was looking at them. They're both embarrassed. People are laughing at them.
"That bitch, Tess made us cry." Maria screamed at the teacher.
"Maria please sit down and never use that kind of language in this classroom again, Tess has been sitting in front of me the whole class listening not once has she spoken to you. Please sit down or I will have to remove from class."
Maria sits down. Everyone is laughing and pointing at them.
I was even more happy! But I never thought that one little wrap would cause what was to happen next!
After class, Maria and Liz left before. I heard them say that they needed to find Max. But Once I walked into the hall, I could tell that everyone had heard about class. I went to my locker and got my stuff for the next class. In my locker was a note. 'Tess meet me in the eraser room after 1st period Love Max'
When I read it I threw my books back into my locker. I got to the room and before entering I looked around to see if anyone was watching.
The room was dark and before I could say anything I had his lips on my lips. I thought, what a nice hello! He should do this more often! I was sad when we broke apart. The room was that light so Max must have heard me thought because he used his powers to make the room more bright.
"Max I have to tell you something." I told him.
"Is it about this morning with Maria and Liz and how you mind warp them? If so, who cares? They told me about it and I was like 'I'll talk to Tess about it' but really I was thinking that they needed a boost of reality." Max said and didn't give me a chance to speak cuz he grabbed a hold of me and starting kissing me.
I loved his lips and hands on me. But things were going to fast. I wanted Max in that way but I also wanted Max to want me for who I am not just cuz we're destiny. I let things go I little farther but while we were kissing I got a flash of something, it was too fast to really see it but I felt it. I felt my and Max's future together wasn't ever going to happen. I don't think Max saw it. After a few more moments there was a bright light that entered the room, like the door had just been open.
"OH MY GOD!" Was what stopped us kissing. We both turned and looked toward the light and voice was coming from. The Light was kinda blinding, so it took our eyes time to adjust. And when they did adjust we saw the end of our lives. It was our chem. teacher. He had been the one to open the door. Max and me rushed to rearrange our clothes.
"Mr. Evans and Ms. Harding you are coming with me. NOW!" He yelled at us. So Max follow and he had taken my hand. Everyone in the hall was watching us. As we walked down the hall, I saw Liz standing and watching. She didn't look all that hurt by it. Cuz she was smiling and it was an evil smile. Just like she had done something and she was taking that moment to live it up. Once by her I saw Michael and Isabel in shock. I had forgotten to tell her about what had happen the night before. Oops!
We reached the office. He went in to talk to Mr. Green, the principal, and then he left. But before he left, he told us to go into the office.
We sat in the two chairs in front of Mr. Green.
"Mr. Evans and Ms. Harding I was told of what happened in the eraser room. I'm shocked by it. You are both great students. I hate to have to do this but making out or whatever you call it, is frowned upon in this school. And I will have to expel you for a few days. I'll have to call your parents, Mr. Evans and The Sheriff, Ms. Harding and tell them what happened. Any questions?" Mr. Green was upset and mad.
I looked at Max. He looked at me.
"No"
"No"
"Good now I want you to wait in the office out there for your parents to arrive. I don't want you two to leave that room or else." Mr. Green was very true to those words and everyone knew it.
So Max and I went and sat in the office for the next part of our lives to come crashing down. Like it always does.
This part is Max pov instead of Tess'.
---------------------------------------
After Tess and I were sent home from school for making out with Tess, which I think we got a pretty harsh punishment for. We were to go directly to our homes but we didn't. We went to the pod chambers to talk.
I sit here looking at who sits in front of me. If someone had told me a year or more ago that I would fall in love with this girl, I would have told them to screw off and it was Liz Parker that I love. I think my love for Liz was just a part of me wanting to feel loved by someone. I never truly loved Liz and never will. Even when I was with Liz I never give her the whole me or my whole heart. I was always holding back from her. Plus how can you fall in love with someone you never once looked twice at. Liz only thinks she loves me.
But with Tess I didn't hold back from her, I hid from her. From the first time I saw her I remembered everything about our lives together in the past and how much I still love her. I was scared that she was only in love with the alien side. But the little things she did told me that she loved the whole me both Human and Alien.
"Max I think we should go back to Roswell now. School's done and I really don't want you to get in more trouble then you are now. Plus Jim is going to be mad." Tess said to me. Her eyes were filled with concern for me.
"Okay but don't worry about me. Then won't be that mad at me." I told her and then we left.
---------------------
"What kind of girl goes into a room like that? I'll tell you, a girl who is a tramp, slut, and a home wrecker." Mom yelled at me.
