Liz’s POV

‘Its February 14th, I’m Liz Parker and I’m in love. Seven years ago Max Evans saved me from death and for the last five of those years we’ve been together, with no interruptions. You could say we’ve been together since that day and in a way we have. That day we connected in a way no on else has. We saw into each other souls, saw how we really see each other and realised it could never be. I guess that last point changed so here we are and neither of us could be happier. We’ve had a rocky path to get here, but it’s been worth all that pain, even when we saw our destiny but destiny was wrong. Tess isn’t here, Michael and Isabel aren’t together neither are Max and Tess. Michael and Maria are together, Isabel’s happy with Jesse, once she let go of Alex, and Max, well he’s with the one he loves. All of us are happy and we’re no longer running. We’re finally able to enjoy our lives with the people we love. Did I remember to say it’s Valentines Day? All six of us are going to dance and then we’re going our separate ways to enjoy the night however we please. I’m going to enjoy this night; I think we all deserve a little happiness…’

“Liz? You ready?” Speak of the gorgeous devil himself. I turn round and gorgeous is not the word. Sexy doesn’t even come close. He’s wearing black trousers and a black shirt with the first two buttons undone, revealing part of his muscled chest that makes me feel dizzy. I stand and turn towards him revealing my outfit for the night. A red dress with thin straps and a wavy hem. I see that he instantly approves and that if Michael and Maria weren’t due any second, he’d be over here taking it off me. Instead I walk to him and placing my arms round his neck pull him in for a kiss so passionate I have to stand on tip toes to keep my balance. I deepen the kiss even further, our tongues brushing against each other so fiercely that I’m completely lost to him. All I feel is him and all the passion and desire between us. A passion so intense that it can be breath takingly dangerous. I have to pull away in fear of completely losing myself to him.
“Max later I promise. Lets go do the group thing and then when we’re alone we can continue”
“Luckily we had our own place. After graduation we all realised we didn’t want to be separated. Jesse and Isabel were living in Roswell so Maria, Michael, Max and me went to college here. And after that we each got our own places, well sort of. Michael and Maria live at her mom’s house but since Amy got together with Jim Valenti, Maria and Michael have the house to themselves. And Max and I, well we got our own house; nothing too fancy or to big but its home. Maria, Michael, Isabel and Jesse are always over here so it feels like Michaels old place; a safe place where we can talk and be alone. Our parents’ didn’t approve but they helped out all the same. They saw that we were happy and that’s all that matters to them.
Max pulls me in for another kiss and I can’t resist. His hands cup my face as mine roam through his hair and just as trails kisses down my neck, there’s a knock at the door. We instantly stop, knowing who it is; Michael and Maria. Isabel and Jesse are meeting us at the club. We just smile at each other.
“Later” I remind him, kissing him on his forehead before I open the door.
“Hey guys. You two ready?” Is the welcome I get from Michael.
“Liz you look gorgeous. Are you sure you wanna go to the dance, cos I’m sure that Max has plans for you Liz looking like that…”
“Maria!! Do you mind? Anyway what about you two?”
“Oh we have plans. They’re just not for now, they’re for later”
“Well….let’s go”
Michael and Maria turn and walk back down the path to the car, Michael’s arm round her shoulder as Max and I grab our jackets.
“You look gorgeous” he whispers in my ear as we walk to the car

Soon we’re at the club and instantly Isabel and Jesse are at our sides.
“Liz Maria you look stunning. Max Michael you’re very lucky”
A chorus of “Thank you” goes around.
“Well everyone set?”
We all enter to find the club relatively quiet. There’s people here but not as many as any other night; people having private plans and all.
We make our way to an empty table in the corner and sit and watch the other couples slowly dancing.
We order drinks and as we sit ‘There You’ll Be’ slowly filters through the club. Max and I look at each other and both stand. This song represents our life. From the beginning we’ve had a link but been unable to be together. And when we were Tess came and showed us their destinies. And even after Tess found out she was pregnant and had to leave, Max couldn’t. Michael was the first to admit he couldn’t. Couldn’t leave because he loves Maria so much, and when Max found out the truth about Alex, he couldn’t leave, not when he’d given up the one person he loves for that murderer. I don’t care about the past anymore because we are together.
As we make our way to the dance floor, I lose sense of everyone and everything around me. All I see is Max and that’s all that matters.

‘Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
I want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love more and more
Listen to my heart
Can you hear it sings
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change
Winter to spring
But I love you until
The end of time’

The lyrics seem to fit in with the life that we’ve had since that day in the Crash Down. But I guess most people see the song as if it was talking directly to them.

‘Come what may
I will love you until my dying day
Suddenly the world seems
Such a perfect place
Suddenly it moves with
Such a perfect grace
Suddenly my life
Doesn't seem such a waste
But our world revolves around you
And there's no mountain too high
No river too wide
Sing out this song
I'll be there by your side
Storm clouds may gather
And stars may collide
But I love you until
The end of time’

As the song ends, Max’s lips press against mine and I once again fade away from our surroundings. I press myself closer to Max, enjoying the sensation from his body being so close to min. I feel him pull away and I come back to reality only to see his face smiling at me and with an arm around my waist he leads me back to our chairs.
As we sit we see that everyone else is still on the dance floor, completely lost in the arms of their love.
All of a sudden I feel dizzy and grab onto the table for support. Max is instantly asking me what’s wrong.
“I don’t know. All of a sudden I felt dizzy”
“Let’s go get some air” he says concern all over his voice.
“No Max, I’ll be fine”
“Liz” he has that tone to his voice that I can’t argue with. I stand and a couple of seconds later he does the same. He leads me outside into the cool air. He’s holding onto me, desperately trying to keep me safe.
“Max thank you”
He knows what I mean and just holds me close. After a few minutes we start to walk back inside. I take a few steps and all of a sudden I falter. Luckily Max catches me in his arms.
”Liz? Liz what’s wrong?”
“Max? Max I’m not sure”
“I’m taking you home. We’ll go see the others, let them know, then you’re going to bed”
“Any other day that would sound appealing, but I’m not gonna argue”
Max takes me back inside leading me back t the table where my friends are sat.
“Max? Liz? What’s wrong?” comes the instant worry from Maria.
“Liz almost collapsed, I’m taking her home”
“Oh my God Liz! Are you alright” Isabel and Maria are instantly at my side worrying.
“I’ll be fine. Once I get some rest I should be okay”
“Call me in the morning okay?”
“Sure Maria”
“Max if anything happens call me right away”
“I will Iz”
“Max can we go I’m not feelin…..”
“Liz? LIZ?”

Heres another part. Sorry its so short but its got a cliffhanger!!!
enjoy

Part 2

Max’s POV

“Liz? LIZ?”
I catch her in my arms as she falls, completely unconscious. The music stops and everyone stares at us.
“Liz? Liz can you hear me?”
“Max? Max we need to get her to the hospital”
“I’ll phone an ambulance” I hear Maria, my eyes fixed on Liz
“No they’ll take too long. Max? Max get here out of here.”
Isabel pulls me out of shock. I lift Liz into my arms and get to the jeep as fast as I can.
“Max take her to the hospital, we’ll meet you there”
I fasten her in and as I speed off I see my friends stood in each others arms. Luckily for Liz I know a short cut to the hospital but as I speed down the roads I see a car follow us, almost the same speed. I pay no attention after that, all I worry about is the person next to me. I know I could probably heal her myself but my minds so screwed I’d probably make her worse.
Its then I notice that car again. It’s right on my tail with no look of backing away. I speed up but it matches my speed mile for mile. Now I’m worried. I thought all this was behind us. I thought no more running. I thought we could live like normal people, like we’d done for so long. I face Liz who’s still out cold. I’m more worried for her than I’ve ever been. What could have happened to make her ill? I just pray that it’s nothing I’ve done. The car behind us gets even closer if that’s possible. I have a bad feeling about this, one that cannot be good for Liz. The car backs away ever so slightly only to speed up again. The car bumped against us. At that point I realize what they’re trying to do. I look around desperately trying to find an escape, but there is none, none anyway that wouldn’t put Liz in any more danger. Then I feel the jeep lurch forward and I can no longer control it.
“Oh God LIZ!!”
“LIZ? Liz you have to wake up”
The jeep swerves off the road as I lose all control. There’s nothing I can do.
“Liz please forgive me”
I see what’s ahead; a phone pole. I frantically try to turn the wheel but nothing works. I give up trying; I lean over and pull Liz into my arms shielding her body with mine in order to protect her, the one thing that matters in my life. I see the pole in front of us and then………..

Spoilers: Blood Brothers- very very tiny one

Max's POV


“I think he’s coming around”
‘Maria? What’s she doing here? What happened? Liz?’
“Liz?” with that I am up and worried
“Max calm down. Max! Michael?”
“Max calm NOW!” I think that’s the first time I’ve heard him yell at me in a long while.
“Where’s Liz?” I’m worried even more now
“We don’t know” came Isabel’s solemn response
“What do you mean you don’t know?”
“We don’t know….” Isabel’s voice slightly fades as I take in my surroundings; bed, metal barriers, patches on my body.
“Where am I?”
“The hospital”
“What? Why?”
“Your jeep was stuck to a telephone pole. Do you remember why?”
“No… What about?”
“It’s been taken care of. It’s already been replaced, Kyle helped us out”
‘Thank god for Kyle’
“Max can you tell us what happened?” came Maria’s quiet voice. Quiet yet full of concern for her missing friend.
“I was bringing her here and then this car started following us. It came right behind us and when I sped up, it did. It bumped us pretty hard; it knocked us off the road. I couldn’t control it so I tried to protect Liz. God LIZ!” Who took her?” I couldn’t handle it any more, tears started to fall down my cheeks, I’d lost Liz. The one person I swore to protect and I lose her.
“We have to find her” I say determined as I get out off bed
“Where Max? We don’t know who’s taken her, we don’t know why”
“Michael do you even have to guess why? God I thought this was all over”
“We all did Max” Maria says as she comes up to me
“We need to find her. We don’t know how she is. She hadn’t woken up. She could be dead for all we know”
“Max please don’t say that” Maria’s voice also broke with tears.
“I’m sorry” I give her a reassuring smile. “Isabel we need to et to my house. I need you to dream walk her”
“Max I haven’t done that in years”
“I know but I need you to try. Liz’s life depends on it”
“Okay. Let’s get you out of here”
I move only to have the voice of a doctor stop me
“Mr Evans, please, you should be in bed”
“I need to go. Liz’s life depend in it”
“The woman who was with you in the car?”
“Yes”
“The sheriff’s department is already looking for her”
“I don’t care. I know more than they do. Now get me the papers I need to sign to get me out of here or I’m going anyway”
“Fine. If you get dressed and go to reception, they’ll get them for you to sign”
I get dressed. I don’t care whose here and make my way out. Luckily the woman at reception knows Liz and knows that I can find her faster than any cop.

We’re soon back at my place all sat in the lounge, trying to think of something. I give Isabel a photo of Liz. She gets herself ready on one of the chairs and then touches the photo. The room goes silent as she does this, all praying she finds her.
Isabel’s body stops and we know she’s found her.
I feel everyone in the room tense as we wait for Iz to wake and tell us what she’s found. It seems like that moment doesn’t come for a life time when actually it’s only a few seconds. Isabel starts breathing very deeply and becomes scared. I know something’s wrong and then she opens her eyes as she gasps for breath.
“Max!!!!”

Rating: PG13 to be safe

Liz’s POV
My eyes flutter open and the first thing I notice is my head. It hurts and I mean hurts. Max? God where’s Max? The last thing I remember is the club but what the hell happened and where am I? Is Max with me? Is he hurt? At that point I take in my surroundings; dark, small room, a single light bulb hangs from the ceiling, reminding me of bad TV movies. I try to get up but as I do pain shoots through my ankle. Damn it’s broken. How the hell did that happen?
I try to crawl to the door but it’s no use; my ankle won’t allow me to move. I wish Max was here; he’d be bale to heal it for me and then we could both get out of here. Wherever here is. I give up trying to move; instead I look at my battered body and wonder what the hell happened. I had no memory of anything happening after the club, I don’t even know whose doing this. That’s the thing I want to know, know who I’m up against yet at the same time I want to get out of here never finding out. I guess the latter isn’t going to happen; I heard a faint noise and realize someone is here, guess I’m gonna find out whose doing this after all.
I try and drag my body over to the wall so that I can lean against it and take some pressure off my aching arms. However I hear another noise and realize; very noisily, someone is coming towards me.
All I can do is sit and wait for them to come. I can’t go anywhere; my damn ankle won’t let me. The footsteps get louder and I know they’re coming to me or Max. Max! God I wish I knew how he was. I’ve tried to make a connection but nothing works; maybe I’m too stressed and drained?
The footsteps stop outside and this is it. This is where I meet my fate. ‘Max if you can hear me I love you. Ever since you saved my life I’ve loved you. I just want you to know that my life began that day and I haven’t regretted a single moment.’
The door handle turns and as the door opens I try to move back; try to put some extra distance between me and my death.
The person enters and for some reason I’m staring at their feet! My gaze slowly rises and as I start to see their face my breath catches in my chest.
It can’t be.
“Tess?”
