| A Future Together for an Unlikely Pair Chapter 1 {Maria’s POV} Well, I can officially say my life sucks. First I find my boyfriend, Michael Guerin, sleeping with the tramp waitress Courtney. Second I sleep with one of my best friends. Last I up and leave, never telling anyone where I’m was going. Not even my mother. Well, let me explain how all this came about, why I’m living in LA with no contact with anyone from my hometown of Roswell New Mexico. At the end of sophomore year, I was dating Michael but all that changed when he killed Agent Pierce of the Special Unit and then found about his destiny. Michael told me he loved me but he couldn’t be with me because he was to dangerous and he needed to be a stonewall he use to be. So, I tried to go along with it but I couldn’t. I would call him every night; of course he never answered. Also at the same time my best friend at the time, Liz Parker, decided she couldn’t handle all the stuff with Max and the aliens and left for the summer to Florida. That left me with out anyone to talk to but that all changed. I became close to Max Evans; we were both down because we both had our hearts broken. We became best friends, always together. I knew that summer my feelings for Max hand changed but nothing ever happened. I also became really good friends with Max’s sister Isabel, Kyle Valenti, and Tess Harding. The summer ended and Liz returned and got back together with Max. I also got back together with Michael. We were together all junior year. Michael had changed and treated me great. He didn’t like the fact that Max and I were still really close. Liz and mine friendship had changed. She also didn’t like the fact about mine and Max’s friendship but I refused to lose Max as my friend. Plus I still had feeling for him, so we started growing apart. When junior year ended, Michael and I were doing great. [At least that is what I thought.] On June 10th after work, I went over to Courtney’s, a new waitress who is always flirting with Michael. I was going over there to tell her to leave him alone. So, I knocked on the door and guess who answered the door. My boyfriend, first I noticed that he had lip stick on his face them I looked down and he didn’t have a shirt on and his pant we unbuttoned. I didn’t even give him time to say anything. I slapped him hard across the face then I told him I never wanted to see him again. I turned and ran to my car and drove home as the tears rolled down my face. I also knew that Max would probably stop by after his date with Liz. I was curled up into a ball crying when I felt Max touch my shoulder as he sat down on my bed. I didn’t even look; I just jumped into his arms and cried. He sat there rocking me back and forth telling me it was all going to be okay. About half and hour later I had calmed down. I finally looked up at Max and the look in his eyes was a look that I’ve only seen him give Liz. It was filled with passion. But tonight he was giving me that look. Next thing I knew Max was kissing me and I was kissing him back. One thing lead to another and that night I gave Max my innocence. We did it four times that night. After the fourth time I fell sound to sleep in Max’s arms but when I woke up Max was gone. I just rolled over and cried because I couldn’t believe what I had just done. I knew the week following after I slept with Max that I had to get out of Roswell New Mexico. I stayed in Roswell for about a week to get things done. First thing I did was call Mr. Parker at the Crashdown and told him that I couldn’t work there anymore because of Michael and Courtney. He said that he would fire them but I told him not to. Second I called my Aunt Monica in LA, I knew she would have room considering she was rich. I explained what had happened between Michael and I but left out what happened between Max and I. She told me I could stay at her other house on her property. Last I packed all my stuff up. I avoided everyone that week. My mom was gone on a buying trip and she wasn’t due back till the day after I left. She came home to an empty house to find my letter. I wrote: Mom, I couldn’t stay in Roswell any longer. I went some where safe. Please don’t try to find me. I will keep in touch with you. I’m glad that you’ll have Jim to help you through this. He really cares about you mom, don’t give up on him because I left. I’m sorry and I love you with all my heart. You Daughter, Maria Deluca P.S. No else knows that I left Roswell. Will you please tell Isabel, Kyle, Alex, and Tess I love them and will miss them and not to worry about me I’m safe. Tell Max, I will miss him the most and I don’t regret anything (He’ll know what I’m talking about) also that I love him. Tell Michael nothing. I don’t want him to know anything because I could care less about him. I love you Mom bye I’ve been in LA for three months now. My mom still doesn’t know where I am. I’ve started school at my new high school. I turned eighteen already so I didn’t have to get my mother involved. I haven’t talk to any of my friends from Roswell. I keep expecting Isabel to show up in my dreams to find out where I am but she hasn’t, which I’m glad about. Oh did I mention that I’m also three months pregnant with Max’s baby. I keep a picture of Max with me at all times. I am totally and completely over Michael. Anyways back to Max. I still do love Max, I think I always will but I’m sure he is still with Liz. I’m due March 10th. My Aunt knows about everything now except for the alien part because when I got home from the doctors I need to talk to someone. I cried for hours. She thinks I should tell Max but I can’t. So that is how I ended up pregnant at eighteen and living in LA. |
