AU- Thanks for all the reviews! I am so glad you are enjoying the story.
Summary- you know
Disclaimer- do not own.
And on with the story.
………………………………
Maria and Liz stood in the middle of the airport…today was the day they would have to confront them….break their hearts. While Liz felt guilt for betraying her husband, Maria felt relief…..relief that maybe everything would be ok, that her and Michael could be happy. Hearing Liz's deep intake of air Maria knew she had saw Andrew and Nate. Maria looked up and sure enough Nate and Andrew were making their way towards them.
Maria was happy for Liz, but the look of joy on Nate's face when he saw Liz for the first time in two weeks was heartwarming. She could tell by just looking at his face how much he loved Liz. Glancing over at Liz, Maria could tell Liz felt guilty, but this was something she had to do….it wouldn't be fair to Nate, Max, or Liz if she stayed with him.
Taking a deep breath Liz greeted her husband with a quick kiss and a few comments like "I love you" and "I missed you".
All four or them piled into Liz's car and made their way to Liz's house where they would meet Michael and Max. Nervous and guilt ridden Liz kept stealing glances of Nate.
When they pulled into Liz's driveway just as planned a cop car was there waiting for them along with Michael and Max.
Maria quickly got out of the car and ran to Michael's side for fear of Andrew hurting her.
While Nate was confused Andrew was mad…he couldn't believe Maria would call the cops on him…she didn't have the courage. Then he looked at the man standing beside her and realized that it was him who had convinced her…told her she deserved better.
UN sure of what to do Nate just stood there waiting for someone to say something. He shot a confused look at Liz silently asking her to explain.
Liz- Nate, while you were gone a lot of things happened.
Nate- what things?
Liz- Well…
Before Liz could continue she was interrupted by Maria.
Maria- This is my story to tell.
Liz nodded and put her hand on Maria's shoulder as a sign of comfort.
Maria- Andrew hit me.
Nate- What are you getting at?
Maria- Do you remember when I had that car accident and ended up in the hospital and the time I fell down the stairs. That was all Andrew's doing.
Looking everyone over he saw that the cop had Andrew cuffed, Michael was holding Maria's hand, and Max and Liz were standing too close for his liking.
Nate- Liz is there something you want to tell me?
Swallowing the lump in her throat Liz explained what happened over the past few weeks. How Max and her had gotten back together and how Michael and Maria had also gotten back together.
This could not be happening…his wife loving another……his best friend being abusive….Nate's whole world was crumbling at his feet. Everything he once loved and called his was gone. Then she spoke the words he never thought he would hear coming from her "I want a divorce".
Nate was devastated but then he saw how Max looked at Liz and how Liz looked at Max and knew in order for her to be happy he had to let her go. Max and Liz were soul mates. Just because Liz wasn't his soul mate didn't mean he didn't have one…some where out there there was someone perfect for him and one day he would find her…until then he would try his best to go through life without Liz.
Looking around at all her friends Maria could not help but smile..everything was going to be okay…she was sure of it.
AU- A couple more chapters and The Letter will be finished. Thanks to all who reviewed and supported me through writing my first fic that was more than one chapter..lol After this story is complete I am going to focus all my attention on Where is My Home. Read and Review.
