AU- .Its seems that I have lost all my Dreamer readers because I did not make Tess a demon…lol. Sorry to all your dreamers out there but Tess is not a killer. I thought about it and there is a good chance that Max and Tess will end up together. Can't give you more that that.

Summary-No aliens. Everyone is human. Max and Liz are in love and everything seems pefect. But all good things eventually come to an end. Tess is new in town. She doesn't have any friends, so Max being as friendly as he is welcomes her with open arms. But when Max starts to fall for Tess. Will Max pick his former love or the mysterious new girl in town?

Disclaimer-Sadly I own nothing.

Your welcome. I never liked how Departure ended. I mean one episode Tess was a scared pregnant teen and the next she was a killer.

Tess's Pov

No one sees the pain I go through everyday. To them I just another new girl parading down the halls of Roswell High. But I am much more. I am the one who comforts Abby when she cries for our mom. I am the one who makes sure that Abby gets fed. I am the one who holds my emotions in while everyone else around me cries. I am not human…..I do not know what it feels like to feel pain….love….hate. I am just a shell created to fill empty space. So you see if I were to die no one would notice.

Max's POV

I know I put my science book in here somewhere . Maybe I should take Liz's advice and organize my locker. you tell me where chemistry is?"

Do I honestly look like a tour host? Turning around I immediately regret my mean thoughts. Standing in front of me is a petite Blonde with bright blue eyes. Her curly blonde hair is pulled back in a ponytail on top of her head except for a few strands. I am very temped to take the loose strands and put them behind her ear.

Clearing my throat I say "Sure, but I have to find my science book first"

She starts to bite her lip a sure sign she's uncomfortable. In an attempt to ease some of the tension I say "I am Max"

She looks up at me and smiles and I can't help the smile that breaks across my own face.

"Tess"

"Ok lets go"

Motioning for her to follow I walk towards chemistry. Stopping in front of Tess's class I watch her walk in. I don't leave until she is in her seat. I don't know what it is about her but I feel like I should protect her from the world.

Putting on my best smile I walk into science and take my seat beside Liz.

Liz looks over at me and says "Your Late." I can literally hear the disgust in her voice. "I had to show the new girl to her class."

She immediately goes from looking disgusted to jealous. "Liz I don't even know her…it was a one time thing."

I told the truth…it was a one time thing but that doesn't mean I can't dream. She smiles at me before directing her attention to the front of the class.

Lunch

Science was a blur. I couldn't stop thinking about Tess. The way she smiled at me. If her hair felt as soft as it looked. I couldn't help but wish I was the one biting her lip earlier. I look over at Liz who is talking to Maria and remind myself that she is the reason I can not act on my newfound feelings for Tess.

I love Liz….I do. What's not to love…she's smart, beautiful and she loves me…well the me she knows. There is so much she doesn't know about me. I love to be around kids but she resents them brats. Its not bad she doesn't like kids…not everyone does, it's the point she doesn't know that I love them that bothers me.

She doesn't take the time to talk to me. She's to busy with cheerleader, volleyball or shopping. Its just that way Tess looked at me…its like she saw me without really seeing me. I am not making any sense even to myself but my feeling for Tess don't make sense. I haven't even known her for a day but she is the only thing that I can think about….everything I see reminds me of her…even Liz.

I know I have gone crazy….I mean Liz and Tess look and act nothing alike but Liz is a constant reminder of why Tess and I could never be. The bell rings and I can practically hear my friends groaning.

Math 7th period

I have no idea what the teacher is saying because of Tess who just happens to sit in front of me. If it isn't bad enough that I can't get her out of my head but now she sits in front of me for a whole period…an hour of nothing but Tess. Which wouldn't be a bad thing if I was single.

"Mr. Evans could you please tell us the answer?"

Oh shit!

"Ummm"

"Would someone please help Mr. Evans out."

"4c squared." Tess says.

Another thing to add to the list of things I like about Tess…she's smart.

End of the day

Thank the lord…school is over. This way I can stop thinking about Tess.

"Do you need help in Math." Tess says.

Ok play it cool.

"Yes. Why?"

"Well I am willing to help you."

"You are?"

"Yes…..do you want me to help you?"

Say no…say no….

"Yes"

"Ok I will meet you at the crashdown 5:30."

Before I can respond Tess walks away. This is not good. Liz's parents own the crashdown meaning Liz will have a front row seat.

AU- I am glad you are enjoying this. Abby will be mentioned more in the later chapters.
