****8 p.m. the day after****

Maria, Alex and Max walked into the Crashdown and was meet by a group of people.

"Hi," Maria said nervous.

"Hi Maria," Liz said. They all kept their distance, the Roswell group on one side and Maria, Alex and Max on the other.

"Ok, I'm Maria and these are my kids, Maxine and Alex," Maria said to the other kids in the room and pointed at her kids.

"Hi, my name is Liz and this is my husband Max and our two kids, Matt and Phoebe. Over there you have Isabel and her husband Kyle and you know Michael I guess". Maria said to Max and Alex.

"So...." Alexander said and sat down beside his mother and sister.

"so, I guess we should tell you about us" Max said and sat down beside Liz.

"You don't have to, my mom told us everything about you last night." Maxine said.

"Well you don't know anything about the last 16 years," Isabel snapped at her. First they show up, we help them and then they are rude back.

"Isabel....." Max warned her.

"Max, it's ok...but just so you know......I left for a reason." Maria said.

"Which was?" Michael snapped.

Then Maria took a deep breath and started telling: "it started.........."

::::FLASHBACK::::

Maria holding a pregnancy test in her hand. It read positive; she was going to have a baby at eight-teen years of age, an alien baby at that. So she took her things and left the house walking towards Michael's apartment.

::::FLASHBACK::::

Maria walked down the corridor and came to a halt at Michael's apartment. The door was slightly opened, enough for Maria to hear that Max was there and they were talking.

"Max, I have to leave." Michael said.

"Michael, you can't just go up and leave, what about Maria?" Max answered.

"What about her?" Michael asked.

"You can't leave her, it would break her." Max stated


::::END OF FLASHBACK::::

"Maria....." Michael said when he saw the painful green eyes that were looking right at him.
