Chapter 3

The Next Day

Max was on a plane to Vermont. All he could think about was Liz and seeing her. When the plane landed in Vermont his mind was set on one thing, getting to Liz. Max had asked Maria for Liz's aunt's address right before he left. So, he rented a car. He reached the two story Victorian house about twothatafternoon. When he got there he hoped that she was there. Max rang the doorbell.

Liz hadn't been feeling well off and on. But today had been the worst then it had been. Liz was trying to relax because if she moved around too much she would start to feel nauseas again. She was upstairs in her room when she heard the doorbell ring. At first she thought it was a delivery person. But something just told her to just go and answer the door. So, she put on her robe and walked downstairs. And opened the door.

"Max."

"Liz."

"Come in…Max, what are you doing here?"

"I need to ask you something?"

Liz sits down on the couch and Max gets down on one knee.

"Liz, I was going to wait until after high school to give this to you, but I think that I better do this now."

Max pulls out a velvet box and opens it.

"Liz, will you marry me?"

Liz was shocked, but how could not say yes. She has been on love with this man since before that September day at the Crashdown. "Yes"
