Liz was out in the desert where Max, Isabel, and Michael had left. She was sitting on a rock just thinking. "It's only been a month since Max left and I miss him so much. I just wish there was a way any way I could be with him." Liz thought out loud. Liz decided to go looking around. "There's got to be something around here that could help me get Max back." Liz said out loud to herself. Liz walked into a cave she thought she heard noise coming from deeper in the cave. "Hello?" Liz called out. "Come on Liz there's no one in here. You're in the middle of the desert. Who could be in here?" Liz thought to herself. Liz could still here a definite noise so she kept walking until she came to something that she thought looked kind of like a portal. She looked around to make sure no one was around then walked up to it. She looked in and what she saw surprised her. "Max!" Liz thought confused. "Maybe just maybe this is how I can be with Max again." Liz thought. With that thought she got a smile on her face. She stuck her hand in then pulled it back out and examined it to make sure everything was still there. "Well everything seems normal." Liz said to herself. Liz stepped through the portal. She looked around. "I hope I don't get into some serious trouble for doing this." Liz thought. She spotted Max again and made her way towards him trying not to be seen by anyone else.
Max saw what he thought was Liz. "No it can't be. Can it?" Max thought to himself. He walked up to her. "Liz?" Max asked. Liz smiled.
"Yeah its me." Liz said. Max took Liz by the hand and led her away from the crowd.
"How'd you get here?" Max asked.
"I'm not real sure myself. I found what seemed like a portal in a cave out in the desert." Liz replied.
"Well ok but if you're going to be here we have to be careful. If anyone finds out that your not one of us, well I don't want to think about what could happen." Max said.
"Me either." Liz said.
"Well how've you been?" Max asked.
"I've been ok. I'm missed you that's for sure." Liz said.
"I've missed you too. How are the others?" Max asked.
"They're good. How are Isabel and Michael?" Liz asked.
"They're good. I'm sure Isabel would love to see you." Max said.
"Well I wouldn't mind see her either." Liz said.
"Ok well I think she's home now. We can go see if you'd like." Max said.
"Sure we can go now." Liz said. Max and Liz walked to Isabel's place. Max knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Isabel called from the other end of the house. Max and Liz walked into the house. Isabel walked into the room. "Hi Max." Isabel said then she noticed Liz. "Max can I see you for a sec?" Isabel said taking Max by the arm and leading him into the other room.
"What's Liz doing here? I mean not that I'm not glad to see her but you know what could happen if anyone finds out she's a human." Isabel said.
"Well she kinda found a portal in a cave and well that's how she got here. Why she's here is kind of obvious." Max replied.
"Yeah I guess your right." Isabel said. Isabel then realized something. "If Liz could come here then why can't we go out?" Isabel said.
"You just might have an idea there." Max said.
Liz walked into the room. "Can I come in?" Liz asked kind of laughing.
"Yeah you can come in." Isabel said.
"What are you guys talking about?" Liz asked.
"Well I was just thinking that if you could come here then why couldn't we use the same portal to go back to Roswell." Isabel said.
Liz thought for a moment. "I guess I never thought about it. It should work. If I can get in and out then I don't see why you couldn't." Liz said.
"Ok well lets go then." Max said eagerly.
"Well shouldn't we tell Michael first?" Isabel asked.
"Why, when I told him we were leaving he was glad. Why would he want to go back?" Max said.
"Isabel's right. Even though he didn't say it to us he told Maria that he still loved her. I think we should at least give him the choice." Liz stated.
"Well ok. Let's go then." Max said.
The three of them headed over to Michael's place. Isabel knocked on the door. "I'm coming." Michael said. He opened the door. "Liz? What are you doing here?" Michael asked confused.
"To make it short, Liz found a portal and walked through it." Isabel said.
"Ok but why are you guys here then?" Michael asked.
"We're going to use the same portal Liz used to get here, to go back to Roswell and thought we should see if you wanted to come with us." Max answered.
Michael thought for a moment. "Ok I'll come with you. I hate to admit it but I do miss Maria." Michael said.
"Ok well we better go soon. I don't know if that portal will close." Liz said.
"You mean you don't know if it closes." Max said.
"Well I wasn't exactly thinking about that at the time. All I could think about was seeing you again. I did stick my hand through and nothing happened." Liz said.
"Well I guess that's a good sign." Isabel said.
"Ok let's go then." Michael said.
Max, Isabel, and Michael followed Liz to where she came out of the portal. "It should be around here somewhere." Liz said.
"I think I see something over here." Michael said. They followed Michael to where he saw the portal.
"Yeah this is it. I'll go through first and make sure there isn't anyone around." Liz said.
"Ok but be careful." Max said.
"I will." Liz said before she walked through the portal. Liz looked around and didn't see anyone then stuck her head back through the portal and said, "The coast is clear." Liz pulled her head back through the portal and stepped aside so the others could come through.
"You go next, Max." Michael said.
"Ok." Max said before he stepped through the portal meeting Liz at the other end.
"You next, Izzy." Michael said.
Isabel stepped through the portal meeting Max and Liz at the other end. Then Michael stepped through the portal meeting the others. "Hey look at that." Isabel said as the portal closed.
"Well I guess we were supposed to come back." Max said.
"Yeah I guess your right." Michael said.
"Well let's go home." Isabel said. The four of them walked out of the desert and back to Roswell. As soon as they arrived back in Roswell Isabel said, "I don't know about the rest of you but I'm going to go see Jesse." With that Isabel left and headed towards her and Jesse's place.
"Well I'm gonna go see Maria." Michael said.
"I think she's at the Crashdown. I think she had to work today." Liz said.
"Thanks." Michael said walking towards the Crashdown.
"Well what should we do then?" Liz asked.
"Well first I need to pick something up then we can do something." Max said.
"Well I'm coming with you then." Liz said.
"Well I want it to be a surprise. Maybe you can go see Kyle or something for a while." Max said.
"Well ok. I'll be at the Crashdown when you're ready." Liz said. Max leaned in and kissed Liz then Liz headed for the Crashdown.
Isabel looked in the window to see if Jesse was inside. She could see him sitting on the couch. Isabel walked around to the back door and quietly opened the door. She tiptoed into the living room. She snuck up behind Jesse and covered his eyes. "Guess who?" Isabel said.
"Oh my god, Isabel?" Jesse said.
"Yeah it's me Jesse. I'm home." Isabel said with a smile.
"But...but how?" Jesse asked.
"It's a long story. I'll tell you all about it over a cup of coffee. Ok?" Isabel said.
"Sounds good to me." Jesse said. He stood up and followed Isabel into the kitchen. Isabel put a pot of coffee on and sat down at the kitchen table and began to tell Jesse the whole story.
Liz walked into the Crashdown. "Hey Liz. Where've you been all day?" Maria asked walking over to her.
"Well it's kind of a long story." Liz replied.
"Well I have time." Maria said.
Michael walked in just after. "Michael?" Maria said confused. "I...I thought you were gone." Maria said.
"Well I was but I'm back now." Michael said as he walked over to Liz and Maria. "Where's Max? I thought he'd be with you." Michael asked.
"Wait. Max is here too?" Maria asked even more confused then before.
"Yeah Max and Isabel are both here." Liz said to Maria. "Max had to pick up something and he was going to meet me here later." Liz added.
"Oh I see." Michael said.
"Why did you come back anyways Michael?" Maria asked.
"Well the truth is I missed you." Michael replied.
"Really?" Maria asked."Yes really." Michael said.
"I'll be outside if you need me." Liz said getting up and walking outside.
Max walked into the jewelry store. "Can I help you?" the old man behind the counter asked.
"Yeah I'm looking for an engagement ring." Max said.
"Oh well we have several nice ones over here." the old man said taking out a tray of rings.
Max looked at the rings for a while then decided on a 24k gold ring with a fair sized diamond in it. Max paid for the ring and walked out of the jewelers. He headed over to the Crashdown. Max spotted Liz sitting on the bench outside of the Crashdown. He walked up to her. "Hi Liz." Max said smiling.
"Oh hi." Liz said smiling back.
Max got down on one knee and said, "I love you more then anything on this earth. Will you marry me Liz?" Liz was speechless.
"Well?" Max asked.
"Yes, yes I'll marry you Max." Liz said. Max slipped the ring on her finger. They kissed and then walked into the Crashdown. "Maria guess what?" Liz said excitedly.
"I don't know. What?" Maria asked.
"Max asked me to marry him." Liz said showing Maria the ring.
"Congratulations." Maria said hugging Liz.
"So that's what you had to pick up." Michael said. Max nodded.
"So when's the wedding?" Maria asked.
"We haven't figured that out yet but when we do you'll be the first to know." Liz said.
Later that night, Michael and Maria were at Michael's place. "Maria I know I don't always act like it but I do love you." Michael said.
"I know you do." Maria said.
"I guess what I'm trying to say is, Maria will you marry?" Michael asked.
"This isn't one of you jokes is it?" Maria asked.
"No I'm serious. Will you marry me?" Michael asked again.
"Yes. I'll marry you Michael." Maria said.
A/N: i'm just gonna leave it unless someone wants to do a final wedding chapter.
