Title: Taking Care of Business Author: Vix Email: Vix_Chic@h... Rating: PG Summary: What should have happened after End Of The World Spoilers: All up till and including Wipe Out Disclaimers: If I owned Roswell I wouldn’t have to write fan fiction to correct their mistakes. Category: M/L-M/M-T/K-A/I Liz looked over at Max and then back at Kyle. She had no idea how she was going to do this. “I’m going to start at the beginning.” She said to the two boys sitting in her room for a supposed ‘study group.’ “Max, I didn’t sleep with Kyle, ever.” Liz said looking Max straight in the eye. “Why was he in your bed Liz?” Max asked looking back over at Kyle who sat on Liz’s bed. “I don’t even know that one.” Kyle said looking up at Liz expectantly. “Tess would have left if you and I were together. I had to find a way to get you to fall out of love with me.” Liz said walking around her room clasping and unclasping her hands. “You did this so me and Tess would be together?” Max asked shocked. “Max, you have a unit. There are four of you and with out all of your strengths you’re as good as dead.” Liz said trying to explain what the future Max had told her. “I knew it wasn’t true, but couldn’t you have talked to me?” Max asked standing up and walking towards Liz. “I told you he’d know, he’s Max. He always knows.” Kyle said standing up and walking towards both of them. “I’m going to let my self out.” He said looking at Liz and she smiled. He turned to Max, he knew Max still trusted him at least a little. He had let him take Liz and Maria, which proved he trusted him a lot more than he let on. Max looked him in the eye and nodded. Kyle knew he didn’t completely trust him, yet, but eventually he would. Kyle smiled and walked out of the room and down to the Crashdown below. “Max…” Liz, said but that was all she said cause as soon as Kyle was gone Max started to kiss her. He put everything he felt into that kiss. He put his passion, his love; he put everything he had ever felt towards her into it. Knowing they both needed it. “I’m sorry.” Liz said as they pulled away. “I should have talked to you about it, but I really had no choice. I’m sorry I hurt you.” Liz said softly looking up into Max’s eyes. “Well considering you had to go to that big of an extreme I’m guessing it was necessary.” Max said holding her close; letting her heart beat against his. God he loved that feeling of…oneness. “Liz, would you ever marry me?” Max asked looking back down at her. “Yes, but never let me convince you to marry me at 19, OK?” Liz asked with a straight face. “19, is just way to young.” “19? You know Romeo and Juliet were even younger than that.” Max said suddenly remembering the ‘speech’ she had given him right before he had found her and Kyle together. “I didn’t mean it Max. I didn’t mean a word of it. I would die for you without a second thought. I would be by your side no matter what. You mean everything to me.” Liz said kissing him again not giving him a chance to respond. * Maria knocked cautiously. Not knowing what to expect. She had told Liz and Kyle that when it was all over that she planned to talk to her mother more, and write to her grandmother more, but what she hadn’t told them is what she planned to tell Michael. It was over and they were still standing. That’s why she was there. She had a lot of things to tend to, and this was one very high up on the list. Michael stuck his head out of the door. He looked down at her; she had changed out of her crashdown outfit. She was wearing hip huggers and a very small top. “Come in.” Michael choked out refocusing his eyes on her face. It didn’t help his concentration any. “Michael, let me get to the point, and no interrupting. Can you handle that?” She asked sarcastically like all ways. She didn’t even know why she was being sarcastic any more. She had almost disappeared and from what Isabel had told them, he too had almost died. “I’m sorry.” She said and walked over to the couch where he had repositioned himself. She straddled his lap making sure he couldn’t go anywhere. “Michael, if anything would have happened to you I…I don’t know what I would have done.” Maria said her eyes filling up with tears. “Nothing happened.” Michael said wiping a few tears from her cheeks. “I told you I’d see you later.” “Michael,” Maria said gaining her composure. “I love you.” She said staring right into his eyes making sure he understood her. His eyes were fixed on hers, not knowing what to do. He was never good at this stuff. She deserved someone who could tell her that he loved her all the time, not just when their lives were in danger. “It’s OK, you don’t have to tell me. I know.” She said softly with a smile. He looked into her eyes not believing her, but he was surprised to find that she had no trace of disappointment in her emerald cat eyes. “I love you, Maria.” He said loud enough for her to hear. He knew she didn’t mind that he didn’t say it as long as he felt it, but he wanted to say it. He wanted to be the guy that she deserved. He wanted her to not lack anything that he could give her. He wanted her to be happy and if saying it made her happy then he would say it. No matter what he would be there for her, forever whether she wanted him there or not. Yeah, maybe he was an alien and maybe they weren’t supposed to be together, but if they were going to be together he was going to try and be the best alien he could be—for her. “Come here space boy.” Maria smiled grabbing his collar and bringing his mouth to hers. She had missed the taste and feel of him. If he was going to try so was she. If he would change for her then she would definitely change for him because no matter what went on in Michael Guerrin’s head she would always love him, no matter what. Michael twisted his body around and laid back on the couch. Smothering her with soft sweet kisses. The kind of kiss they had shared sometimes. Those tended to be few and far a part. She loved how his lips felt gently pressing against hers. She could never give him up even if he wanted her to. * Kyle walked into his room and fell face first onto his bed. Letting out a low groan. Tess walked down the hall to find what she had already expected to be there. “Nice to see you’re still alive.” Tess said walking over to the bed and shoving him over so she too could sit on the bed. “Yeah, you too. So did you four do that or did Maria?” Kyle asked turning around to find Tess clothed in one of his old jerseys, and had a distraught look on her face. “Are you OK?” He asked her sitting up beside her. “I killed them. I killed them all.” She said her voice wavering. He instinctually grabbed her for a hug. He didn’t know what to say, what to do, Buddha never really covered this. “I’m sorry.” He said holding her a little tighter. “You did what you had to do.” “I didn’t mean to though. I just meant to send them a mind warp.” She said weakly. He looked down at her still form, “You’re alive, we all are. That’s all that matters. If you wouldn’t have killed them then they would have killed you, and to tell you the truth, I’m really glad you killed them first.” He said stroking her hair. Tess looked up at him with sparkling eyes, and he smiled down at her tucking a piece of loose hair behind her ear. “Besides, I even got to kick some ass.” Kyle said. “How does Buddha feel about that?” Tess asked sitting up and leaning against the wall. “I asked for forgiveness.” Kyle said with a smirk. Tess gave him the strangest look she could muster before bursting into laughter. “What?” He asked innocently. “Only you Kyle, only you.” Tess said straightening back up. An awkward silence filled the room and neither knew what to say so Kyle let the first thought that popped into his head come out of his mouth, “So did you hear Liz and Max are back together again?” “Figures! He’d take her back after anything. I mean come on, she slept with you and he still forgave her. She caused him so much pain and everything’s fine. It’s just typical!” She said loudly. “Well actually she explained everything to us, and he did forgive her because we didn’t sleep together.” He said looking over at her. “Oh.” Tess said. “You look very good when you’re upset.” He said still staring at her. “In order to trim the lamp of knowledge…” Kyle began. “Yeah, yeah Buddha boy.” Tess said as she leaned in and met his lips in a kiss. * Isabel stood nervously shaking on Alex’s porch. She had already rang the doorbell twice. What could be taking him so long? Suddenly the door opened and Alex Whitman stuck his head out tentatively. He was quite surprised to find Isabel Evans on his doorstep. “Isabel!” He called happily. She immediately wrapped her arms around his neck startling him. She squeezed him tightly and he finally hugged her back after he regained his composure, which, for him was a very hard thing to do around Isabel. She released her death grip she had on him and leaned back to look at him. She couldn’t stop herself from what she did next. Alex didn’t know what to think. First she was hugging him then she was kissing him. What was he supposed to do? It didn’t take him very long to start kissing her back. Eventually they had to pull back, to breathe. They untangled themselves from each other. “So…” Alex said not sure what to do next. “So…” Isabel had planned to hug him and beg for forgiveness for how she had been treating him, but he obviously hadn’t noticed. “We burned a new CD…” Alex said in an attempt to make conversation. “I know.” Isabel said remembering what had finally made her see how important Alex actually as to her. “You want to come in and listen to it?” He asked looking at her tenderly. She loved how he looked at her. His eyes were so loving, so compassionate. She leaned into him and kissed him softly, “Yeah, I’d love to.” He smiled his goofy grin of his and wrapped one arm around her and started to walk back into his house. The End |
