The four teen aliens were having lunch at school. They were sitting outside cause the weather was great. Isabel caught sight of two familiar faces. ”Kyle! Liz! Come over here!” she yelled at her two human friends. They did as she said and Kyle sat down between Isabel and Tess and Liz between Max and Michael. Max immediately gave Liz a kiss on the lips and laid an arm around her shoulders. Isabel smiled at them. She was glad that her brother had finally come to his senses and gotten back together with Liz. Alex’s death had created sort of a gap between the aliens and the humans when Liz accused aliens to be behind it all. And when it turned out she was right, Max and Liz had a long talk and decided to give their love a second change. For a while they thought that Tess was behind it all and they sent her back to their homeplanet, but it turned out that it was a shapeshifter. And the real Tess was back with them again. But she wasn’t pregnant anymore. The shapeshifter had killed Max and Tess’s baby and then taken Tess’s place. Both Max and Tess was devestated, but they both found comfort in others. Max in Liz and Tess in Kyle. Although Tess and Kyle weren’t together. They were more like brother and sister. But Isabel suspected it to become more. ”Isabel, a penny for your thoughts,” Kyle said suddenly, ripping Isabel away from her thinking. ”Well…actually I was just thinking about Maria,” Isabel answered. ”What about Maria?” Michael immediatly asked. ”I haven’t seen her around lately. Is she sick or something?” Isabel asked turned to Liz. ”I’m not really sure,” Liz said and got a sad look on her face. ”I talked to her yesterday, but she wouldn’t tell me what was going on. She has been acting really weird lately.” ”Totally,” Kyle agreed. ”I asked her if she wanted to talk or something and she totally blew me of.” ”Valenti, no offense but that’s nothing unusuall,” Michael said. ”Kyle is right, Michael. It’s not like Maria to just blow someone of like that,” Max said and gave Liz a worried look. ”Well…” Tess said. ”Isabel and I have to get going if we don’t want to get detention. Mrs. Miller is real strikt about being in time for class.” She stood up and grabbed her books from the grass. ”Are you coming Is?” ”Yeah, I’m coming,” Isabel answered and stood up. She looked at her four friends, still sitting in the grass. ”But I think we should all keep an eye on Maria. Just in case. Okay?” ”Agreed,” Max said and the others nodded. ”Good,” Isabel said before she followed Tess to english class… Maria ran and ran, but she didn’t know from what or who she was running. Suddenly she felt this awful pain in her stomach. She knew that she should keep running, but the pain was just too much. She krumpled down on the ground and closed her eyes. Why wouldn’t the pain go away? And what was she running from? Suddenly she wasn’t lying on the ground anymore. She was in a big beautiful room, full with dancing people in beautiful clothes. She looked at herself and realized that she wasn’t wearing what she had before. She was wearing a long dark-blue, gorgeous dress. It looked like it was take from a Shakespeare-movie or something. Maria used to always dream about being in that sort of a movie when she was a little girl. “Excuse me my lady,” a dark voice said from behind her. “But would you do me the honor of giving me this dance?” Maria turned around and found herself looking at the most beautiful man she had ever seen. “Of course,” she answered and offered him her hand. He took it and led her out to the middle of the dance-floor. A slow song started and he held on to her hand and placed the other around her waist. Maria placed her free hand on his shoulder. They started dancing and Maria felt amazing. This felt so right, so familiar. She looked up at the man and wondered who he was. She recognized his face, but she couldn’t tell where she’d seen him before. When the song ended he took her back to where she had been standing and thanked her for the dance. Before Maria had the change to ask who he was, he disappeared… Maria woke up by the sound of her alarmclock. “Time for school,” she muttered. She got out of bed and in to the bathroom. She got in the shower and started thinking. She had been having the same dream for a week now. First she was running and having this really nasty stomachache. Then she was in a ballroom, dancing with this beautiful man. But every night the dream developed a little. And it seemed so real. Maria had never before dreamt something that felt so real. Like it was really happening. Well, she hadn’t time to think about that right now. She had to get ready to get to school. She had a feeling it would be a long day… TBC |
