You Never Know (M/M AU) Adult Ch. 49 1/8 [WIP]

Rating: Adult eventually

Summary: AU Maria goes to a girls college, makes friends…then things take a turn…you’ll see…read…
A/N: This is something that came to me…its kinda autobiographical, but I figured it would work well as a fanfic…I hope you like it…PLEASE feedback…so I know you like it or not…
Chapter One:
Maria looked at the campus that was to be her new home for the year. She was so excited. It had been a long road to this point. But she was finally at Hudson Univeristy. It was an all girl’s college in Northern Virginia. She was a transfer from Roswell Community College.
She hated it there. The people were small minded, and lacked the drive and attention to care about anything then getting an education just to get a better job that working at the cheese factory. People there didn’t get her. All her friends from High school had made better grades and gone to NMU, or other private colleges across the Western United States. But due to her lack of effort in College, she couldn’t get into those colleges.
She applied to Hudson’s early in her Freshman year and was accepted, and couldn’t’ be more happy. She loved the idea of the small liberal art’s college, and truth be told it was so rt of liberating to be going to a Women’s college.
“You ready?” Her best friend Alex asked her. He had come with her to help her move in.
“Yeah,” Maria said with all the excitement she had, which was a lot.
“Well, let’s do this.” He said.
Maria nodded and drove up the to back of her dorm. She had already checked in and gotten her orientation schedule, and keys and stuff, now it was time to really move in. She popped the back of the SUV they had rented to drive cross-country, and Alex picked up the first box, carrying it into the building.
She lived on the third floor, so they had to walk up two flights of stairs. When Alex laid the first box on her bare bed, he noticed that her roomate hadn’t arrived yet. “What was your roomates name again?” he asked.
“Liz, something.” Maria said setting down her box.
“So you like her?” Alex asked.
“Well, I don’t really know her. But you know how I am. I like everyone until they cross me. She seems really cool though. She partied like I did in high school.” Maria said with a grin.
“Oh, God.” Alex said with a grin. “Well, we better get this stuff done. Those stairs suck.”
Maria laughed. “Yeah. Ummm smokking is going to suck!” she said with a dramatic sigh.
“You shouldn’t be smoking that shit anyway.” Alex said good naturedly.
The two began carrying all of Maria’s stuff up to her room. Finally, at the last thing, the 37” TV, Liz arrived with her parents.
“Hi, I’m Liz.” Liz greated. Maria took Liz Parker in. She knew that she was going to have a good time with this girl. She was a complete free spirit. She hat a tatoo that said ‘love is pain’ on her upper back, and one that said ‘fairwell to arms’ on her right wrist.
“Hey, I’m maria.” Maria said extending her hand. Liz just laughed and pulled the other girl into an tight hug.
“We are roomies. We hug.” She said with a grin.
Maria laughed and looked at Alex who was trying to contain his own laughter. “This is my friend Alex. He’s helping me move in.” Maria said. introducing the two.
“These are my parents. Jeff and Nancy.” Liz said.
“It’s very nice to meet you.” Maria said.
“So, is this the last thing you guys have to carry up?” Mr. Parker asked, pointing to the TV.
“Yeah. We got everything else. We are just taking a little break.” Alex said.
“I can help.” He offered.
“No, I can get it.” Alex said.
“No, it would be my pleasure.”
“Ok,” Alex said smiling warmly.
After the two men carried up the TV, Maria and Alex began unpaking her stuff. Liz and her parents went out to eat before carrying her stuff up, so Alex and Maria had the rom to themselves. “So, all Women’s school….How is the sexaholic going to deal with that?” Alex said half joking.
Maria slapped him lightly on the arm. “It will be fine. It will be nice to be without distraction. Besides, you know that I do not do relationships anyway. I don’t need men. Well, ok I NEED to get laid…but VMI is close. And ther guys schools. So, I’ll be fine.” Maria reasoned. Truth be told, she didn’t think she could live without sex, but she could live without guys around all the time.
“Well, I mean, I’m really happy for you Maria. I hope this works out for you. You deserve it.” Alex said wrapping his arms around his friend.
“Thanks, Alex. Now, stop and put that stuff away before I start crying and then I really have to kick your ass.” She said sitting on the bed and looking through her schedule. “God, I have so much crap to do this week.” She said looking the the list of things to do during orientation.
“Well, I don’t think they will kick you out if you skip a few things.” Alex said.
“Yeah, I guess you are right.” Maria siad. She read through the whole list and made note of the things that looked intersting and the things that were mandetory. She wasn’t going to do any more than she had to. She was a transfer after all, she had done all this shit before.
Before long, her half of the room was in order and the way she liked it. She and Alex dropped on the bed and laid down. “I’m so tired.” Alex said.
“Ok, why don’t we go get some dinner and come back and go to bed.” Maria suggested. Alex was staying the night before he flew back the next morning.
Alex nodded and they left.
************
“So, Liz. Alex is going to stay the night. Is that cool?” Maria asked.
“Oh, yeah. Of Course!” she said laying on her own bed. Maria smiled. This was going to be an easy year as far as roomates went.
“Ok, well we are going to bed. It’s been a long day.” Maria said getting under the covers, Alex moving in behind her.
“Ok, I’m just goint to walk around the campus for a few. I’ll see you tomorrow.” Liz sais pulling on her shoes and shuting off the light on her way out.
**********
Maria was crying as she stood outside the dorm. Alex was leaving and she was really goint o miss him. He was going to be a 5 hr. fight away and she was really nt sure if she could handle it.
“Maria, it’s going to be ok. I’m coming over here at least 3 weekends this semester. It will be ok.” Alex said rubbing her back.
“I know. I’ll miss you.” She said kissing his cheek.
“I’ll miss you to. Have fun. Be Good. And call me if you need me.” Alex said, huggin her one more time, then getting into the car, to drive to the airport.
“Bye, Alex.” Maria called after him, but she knew he couldn’t here her.
She turned around and walked back into the dorm, up the stairs and to her room. She had to get dressed for the Orientation activities of the day.

Chapter 2
“Maria, wait up!” Liz called to her as she made her way to the Front Quad to meet her Student Success Leader. Liz was dragging another girl with her.
“What’s up,” Maria asked stopping and waiting for her roomate and the other girl.
“Hey, this is Tess.” Liz said introducing Maria to her new friend. “Tess, this is Maria, my roomate.”
“Hi, Tess,” Maria said smiling. Tess smiled back and the three of them walked to the Quad together.
**********
The next couple days were long and boring. Maria, and the rest of the transfers had already been through the College Orientation process, and after sitting through the whole, “Now, if you get homesick…” lecture, “And be sure to communicate with your roomate…” talk, they were all pretty much over it.
Maria had met some really cool people though. One of the girl on her hall, Isabel, smoked about as much as she did and they were already starting to get each other for smoke breaks. This was one such break.
“So, you looking forward to this class bonding White Water Rafting Trip?” Isabel asked sarcastically. She was Maria’s kind of girl.
Maria took a long drag off her ciggarette and smiled, “Yeah, I think I’d rather have my eyes peirced. I don’t want to d this at all.” She said. “Besides the fact that I’m terrified.”
Isabel laughed at Maria. “Waterphobic?”
“No, not at all. More, getting caught under a rock and dying phobic.” Maria said with a laugh. Suddenly, Isabel’s phone rang to the tune of some country song. Maria giggled to herslef. If it wasn’t rap at this school is was country.
“Hey, sweetie.” Isabel greeted already knowing that is was her friend Kyle on the other line.
Maria watched her anamated friend smoke and talk on the phone. It made h er kind of sad. She missed her friends back home. Sure, she was glad to get out of Roswell, but she did miss the good times she had. She especially missed the boys. Maria had always made better friends with boys that girls, and though the girls at Hudson seemed really awsome, she knew that a friends-with-benefits thing wasn’t going to work with her new friends. She needed to get laid. Badly.
“You wanna talk to Kyle?” isable asked waving the phone in Maria’s face.
Maria giggled. She didn’t know who the hell Kyle was, but she really didn’t care. It would be nice to hear the smooth deep voice of someone with a Y cromosome! She nodded and Isabel handed her the phone. “Hey, Kyle?” she said with a giggle, kicking herself for soundind like such a girl.
“Hey, Whats up?” Kyle greeted enthusiasticly. Maria could hear guys yelling in the background.
“So, you at a party?” she asked.
“Nah, I’m at a friends house. They are just being assholes cuase I’m not hanging with them.” Kyle explained.
“Oh, Well, I can let you go.” Maria said.
“No, they can wait. Fuck em.” He said. “So, your friends with Isabel. That’s cool. You must be cool people if she hangs with you.”
“Yeah, Isabel is awesome. And she smokes a pack a day, which is nice. So, are you in school?” Maria asked, just making conversation.
“Nah. I work at the garage in town. I didn’t do the college thing.” Maria was sad to hear this. She thought everyone did the ‘college thing,’ or at least she should. But who was she to judge.
“Well, that’s cool. You wanna talk to Isabel again?” Maria asked.
“Yeah,” Kyle said, and Maria handed the phone back to Isabel. She talked to Kyle for a little longer and then turned off the phone.
“I love that kid,” Isabel said rolling her eyes.
Maria just smiled and the smoked together, making conversation, finding out more about each other. Isabel was a History Major, who transferred from a community college in Tennesse. Maria told Isable that she was A Political Science/Vocal Performance Major from Roswell New Mexico.
“Know any aliens?” Isabel asked with a laugh.
“Everyone in Roswell is an Alien.” Maria said.
*************
“I’m glad we are in the same bus.” Liz said to Maria as they got up and ready for the rafting trip ahead of them.
“You don’t know how close I am to skip this.” Maria said.
“Ohh common. Its gonna be fun.” Liz said brishing her hair.
Maria wasn’t so sure, but she didn’t want to crush her new roomate’s dreams, so she just nodded and smiled.
On the bus, Liz and Maria sat together. They began to get to know each other a little better. They had both been so busy during the orientation process that they hadn’t been givin the chance to talk. Maria knew that Liz was a Tensfer from FIT (The Fashion Institute in New York City), but she knew little else about her.
“So, you have a boyfriend?” Maria asked, as she slidd further into her seat resting her head on the headrest behind her.
“Yeah.” Liz said with a alight blush. Maria could tell that she really cared for her boyfriend. Too bad it would end miserably, Maria thought, bush showed no signs of her pessimism. “His name is Max. He’s…a…he’s actually in lock up right now.” She answered lookin at her lap.
“Oh, really. What’s he in for?” Maria asked, unfazed. She knew plenty of people that went in and out of jail. She wasn’t always known for the best judgment, besides, her mother had married many a man who had seen the inside of a penatentary.
Liz seemed surprised that Maria didn’t look down on her, but she smiled and said, “Drug trafficing and vandalism.” Liz said.
“Oh, yeah, well I’m a fan of penatentary reform. People should go to jail for drug offenses.” Maria said. She always thought it was rediculous that people would go to jail for 20 years for drugs but 5 years for rape. “How long is he in?” she asked.
“Two more years.” Liz said with a sigh. “it’s hard. I mean he is ok with me seeing other people until he gets out. He understands. But just don’t think I could have sex with anyone else. I mean I’ve slept with other people before Max, but I’d like to stay celibet until he gets out.”
“Whew!” Maria said. She respected Liz’s wishes,, but the thought of no sex for two years abosulutly blew her mind. “You are a better man than I,” Maria said with a laugh.
“Well, let me tell you. It’s not the easiest thing in the world.” Liz said grinning.
********
“So, What you want to do is keep your hand on the T-grip at all times. Otherwise your teeth might end up down your throat.” The very hot, Johnny Depp lookin’, Raft guide advised the girls waiting to get on the rafts. Maria was standing next to Liz and Isabel wringing her hands. She was pretty sure she was going to puke.
“Ok, now if there are no questions, Pick a raft and get in.”
Maria, Liz, and Isabel made their way to a raft with a female guide. They were all three all about girl power and felt no need for a man on a power trip to tell them what to do. Before Maria could get into the raft she felt tears sting her eyes.
She couldn’t stop them for fallling down her cheeks. Liz and Isabel who were aleady in the raft gave her a sympathetic look, they didn’t know what to do. The guide turned to Maria and said. “Look, sweetie,” in a thick southern accent, “The raft and gonna hurt you. It wants to stay upright. So you just a-follow my directions and you gonna be jus’ fine.” Maria nodded and wipped her tears away feeling like an asshole. She was fearless right? Well her Claustrophobis sure didn’t agree with that statement.
The raft ride sucked as much and Maria thought, but she did stay in the boat. One time she almost fell out, and she almost had a heart attack over it. Liz and Isabel tried to hold it back, but they totally were laughing at her. ‘kiss my ass’ Maria thought good-naturedly.
Finally, after about 4 hours, the hell that was White Water Rafting was over and Maria got to stand on dry land, take a shower, and put on dry clothes. That night she sleep like a baby, worn out from the days events.

Chapter 3
“Maria!” Liz whispered into Maria’s ear the first morning of classes. “Maria,”
Finally, Maria’s eye fluttered open and she looked at Liz. It was 10:00. Time for her to get up and go to class. Uhhhggg. Maria pushed herself out of bed and got her books together for class. This was an all women’s college, so she didn’t even both with changing out of her PJs.
“I’ll see you at Dinner,” she called to Liz on her way out.
Her first class was Music Thoery I, and she wasn’t excited. All class they talked about ‘what a note is’ and ‘how long to hold it.’ It was all Maria could do to stay awake.
The next class was better. US Lit. Maria loved English and Literature. The book list was extensive, but looked fairly interesting.
She had a quick lunch and then went on the her third and final class. Introduction to Film. Maria had always lved movied, and once wanted to be a film director. When she got the sylibus for the class she was pleasently surprised with the movie choices.
Finally classes were over and she made her way to the dining hall. She sat down with Tess, Liz, and Isabel, and noticed anouther girl at the table, whom she had never met. “Hi, I’m Maria,” she said extending her hand to this new girl.
“Hey, Maria, I’m Courtney, from Jersy.” The girl greeted with a smile.
“She smokes too.” Isabel said with a wink. Maria smiled back.
“Awesome. Can never have too many people to shoot the shit with when you are smoking.” Maria said. It was true, she hated smoking alone…but she would do it.
“Oh! So my friend Michael is coming up next weekened.” Isabel said excitedly.
“Dammit. I’m flying to Roswell for a wedding.” Maria said dissapointed. She wanted to meet Isabel’s guy friends. She talked about them all the time, and they seemed really cool. Small-town, but cool.
“Fuck! Well, it’s ok. He will be back. Kyle’s going to come up somtime too. Probably Jesse and Zan as well.” Isabel said.
“Ok, well make sure they do. I don’t want to miss out on all the guys being here,” Maria said with a wicked grin. God, she needed to get laid.
*******
The next day, Maria only had one class, but then she had work study. She loved her class it was a Media and Politics class and the Professer was highly entertaining.
She took a little lunch break and then headed over to the Music department for her work study. Coaching amature singers. That was going to be less than fun. Maria wasn’t exactly the best teacher. She didn’t have any patience and she didn’t understand why people couldn’t read music. But this would be good for her. It would help her. She was sure.
********
The rest of the week went by rather fast. Maria, as well as the rest of the girls had a lot of homework, but they had all found ways of getting around doing all of it. The tricks of the transfer student.
Isabel, Courtney, and Maria would sit outside on the balcony making fun of isabel’s roomate, Emily, and anouther girl on the hall, Erin. They were both really weird. Emily studied ALL THE TIME. And Erin would just walk into the room and give you a hug for no reason. Bizzare.
Liz was too sweet to talk about anyone openly, but Maria could tell there was a little rant in there somewhere trying to get out.
“So when do you leave for Roswell?” Courtney asked taking a long drag on her menthol ciggarette.
“Thursday night.” Maria said leaning back in her rocking chair. “When is Michael getting here?” she asked Isabel.
“Friday after noon.” Isabel answered. “We should call him.” She said digging out her phone from her pocket. “It’s Saturday night. He probably isn’t doing anything.” She said with a laugh.
“Hey, Michael, what’s up?”
“Nothin, what are you doing?” Michael asked.
“Nothin, hey, you wanna talk to Maria. Since you wont be able to meet her next weekened.” Isabel said excitedly. A few shots can do that to you.
“Ummm, ok?” Michael said confused. He could tell his friend had been drinking.
Isabel pushed the phone into Maria’s hand. “Hey, Michael?” Maria said.
“Hey.” Was all he said.
“So…” Maria said, not knowing what the hell to talk about. Michael didn’t seem to be as personable as Isabel’s friend, Kyle.
“Yeah…” Michael returned. What the hell was he supposed to talk about. He didn’t know Maria. Sure he had heard about her from Isabel, and she had a hot voice, but what was he going to talk to her about.
“Ok, well I’m gonna give the phone back to Isabel.” Maria said with a giggle.
“So what did you talk about?” Isabel asked Michael.
“Nothing,” Michael said, and he was telling the honest to god truth.
*********
The next week seemed to go by so slow. Maria knew it was because she was looking forward to going back home to see her friends. And get laid, of course. Finally, Thursday rolled around.
“Maria, you ready?” Liz called from the hallway.
“Yeah, Almost.” Maria said looking for her plane ticket.
“K, well I’ll get the car. Meet you in the back.” Liz said bouncing down the stairs.
Just then Maria spotted her tickes and breathed a sigh of relief. She put them in her bag and walked out the door to meet Liz.
At the airport, Liz got out and came around to Maria. “I’m gonna miss you.” Liz said hugging Maria tightly.
Maria giggled. “I’ll be back Sunday. And if anyone wants to sleep in my bed, that’s cool. So you aren’t so lonely,” Maria said with a grin. Liz playfully smacked her on the arm.
“Ok, have a safe flight, and get laid for me.” Liz said with a wink. Maria smiled and waived as she entered the tiny airport.
********
After about 7 hours of changing planes, layovers, and actual flying, maria finally landed at Roswell’s airport at about 11:00pm. When she got to the baggage claim, she saw Alex there waiting for her. “Alex!” she screamed, not carring what anyone else thought.
She ran to him and jumped into his arms. “Let’s get your stuff and get home.” He said wrapping his arm around her waist. Maria smiled and nodded grabbing her abck and heading out the door with Alex.
TBC…
“Maria!” Liz whispered into Maria’s ear the first morning of classes. “Maria,”
Finally, Maria’s eye fluttered open and she looked at Liz. It was 10:00. Time for her to get up and go to class. Uhhhggg. Maria pushed herself out of bed and got her books together for class. This was an all women’s college, so she didn’t even both with changing out of her PJs.
“I’ll see you at Dinner,” she called to Liz on her way out.
Her first class was Music Thoery I, and she wasn’t excited. All class they talked about ‘what a note is’ and ‘how long to hold it.’ It was all Maria could do to stay awake.
The next class was better. US Lit. Maria loved English and Literature. The book list was extensive, but looked fairly interesting.
She had a quick lunch and then went on the her third and final class. Introduction to Film. Maria had always lved movied, and once wanted to be a film director. When she got the sylibus for the class she was pleasently surprised with the movie choices.

Chapter 4
"So, you staying with me?" Alex asked.
"Ummm yeah. I would rather attend an unanestitiezed root-canal than stay at my mom's house." Maria said rolling her eyes. Then she smiled, wrapping her arm around Alex's waist.
Alex and maria drov back to Alex's apartment on the other side of Roswell.
When they got in the door, Maria threw het books down on the couch. "So where is Zan?" Maria asked plopping down next to her books.
"He's out. He'll be back tonight. But probably late. He's been wrking in the lab alot." Alex answered. He's roomate, Zan, was pre-med and completely and totally dedicated to work. That was not to say he didnt party, but He worked hard.
"Right on, so whats' goin on tonight?" Maria said pulling Alex down on the couch next to her.
"Hmmmm, what do you have in mind?" Alex asked, grinning. he knew very well what was on her mind.
Maria didn't answere with words. She merely got up straddled Alex's legs, leaning in a pressing a rough kiss on his lips. "I need you Alex. It's been weeks." Maria said.
Alex laughed. "It's been 3 weeks. That's it." he said running his hands up and down her sides.
"I know, but i need to get laid Alex!" maria whined, rubbing her already wet mound against the tightening in Alex's jeans.
"Well, the girl must have what she wants," Alex said grinning and standing up, with Maria still in his arms. "Let's just get off the couch, shall we?"
"Yeah," Maria breathed, attacking Alex's neck once again. Finally, after bumping into several walls along the way, Alex and Maria made it into Alex's bedroom.
Maria had long since ripped Alex's shirt off and he pulled her's over her head before laying her down on the bed. He climbed on with her and attacked her neck. "Mmm," Maria moaned in bliss. She needed this.
Maria reached down to Alex's belt and made quick work of undooing it along with the botton and zipper on his jeans. Alx followed her lead, unzipping her skirt and pulling it down her legs.
Maria began pushing Alex's pants and boxers down his legs, but the she stopped, "Wait, one sec." she said reachign into his pocked and pulling out and condom. "okay," she said pushing his jeans the rest of the way off.
******
"Whoo, that was awesome, Alex." Maria said with a giggle. She loved the arangment she had with most of her guy friends. It was strictly sex. No feelings, no strings, and no commitment. What more could a girl want? Maria didn't know.
"Yeah," Alex said.
"Well, I'm gonna smoke. Wanna come?" Maria said cocking an eyebrow.
"You know i dont smoke that shit." Alex said throwing a pillow at her.
Maria laughed and pulled on Alex's shirt, walking out of the room and out of the apartment to smoke. She felt so much better. Sex. It was amazing like that. It could make her relaxed and happy like nothin else in this world.
It was just what she needed before he faced her family at the wedding the next day.
Meanwhile at Hudson...
"Michael!" Isabel screamed as she ran to her friends truck to great him.
"Hey, Isabel." Michael said smiling at his best friend as she wrapped her arms around him.
"You cut your hair." she said looking at him, "I like it. Alright, let's get inside."
Michael was overwhelmed by all the girls around him. It was sort of depressing. He was having a dry spell when it came to women, and he hated it. All he wanted was a woman to love, but most of the girl where he was from cared about two things. Money and Cars. Well, he didn't have one and the other one was nothing to write home about.
"So, what's going on this weekend?" Michael asked plopping down on Isabel's bed.
"Well, i figured you, me, Liz, Tess, and Courtney could go to dinner and then just drink ourselves silly." Isabel said sitting down next to Michael.
"Awesome, so how have you been? You like it here?" Michael asked looking around her colorful dorm room.
"Yeah i really like it here. Maria, Liz, Tess, and Courtney are awesome. My roomate sucks though. She is so weird. She studies ALL THE TIME. And she randomly turns off the TV when she wants to." Isabel ranted.
Michael laughed. He really missed Isabel. She was his best, well only, friend back home. "Well, it seems to me you spend more time on the balcony than in your room anyway."
"True. Or in Maria and Liz's room. I'm telling you, you have to come back in two weeks when you get paid. You HAVE to meet Maria. She is so funny. That Sarcastic kind of funny, and sweet." Isabel rambled about her new friend.
"God you make her sound like a sexier, smarter, funnier version of Angelina Joile." Michael said with a laugh. Isabel giggled and smacked Michael playfully.

Faithfulangel: Thanks for the FB...sorry the alex/maria sex was short, i didn't want CC people to have a heart attack, but i think you might be pleasantly suprised by this next chapter...i figure its my story dammit lol...
I heart you all
Chapter 5
Michael woke up in an unfamiliar room. He rolled over on his back and looked around. He was in Maria's bed in her and Liz's room. He remembered now. After a night of heavy drinking, he passed out in Maria's bed with Liz's permission.
Liz wasn't in the room. Michael turned to look at the clock. It was noon. How did they let him sleep till noon. Well, Isabel was easy to understand. He was her human alarmclock and he knew how she was in the morning.
He rolled back over and pushed his face down into Maria's pillow. It smelled good. Whoever this Maria girl was, she smelled amazing. Like pepermint and cinamon. He took a few deep breaths, rubbed his face in the col cotton of the pillowcase and pushed himself off the bed.
On his way out the door, Michael tripped ver what must have been Maria's underware. He grinned, by the looks of her room, she was into organized chaos. Liz, on the other hand, has a place for everything. Michael also took note of the lace thong now around his foot. He didn't know how girls could wear that crap, but he was sure happy they did. He shook the thoughts out of his head, untangled himself and headed down to Isabel's room.
Inside he saw Liz, Tess, Courtney and Isabel all watching TV. "Hey sleepy head." Isabel said getting up. "Ready to eat now?"
Michael just nodded. "Why didn't you wake me up?" he asked.
"You jsut looked too adorable wrapped up in Maria's down comforter. By the way, she is going to be so shity when she finds out that a boy slept in her bed and she wasn't there to enjoy it." Liz said with a grin.
Michael blushed and followed the girls to the dinning hall.
*********
After the Wedding in Roswell...
Maria entered Alex and Zan's apartment with a huff. It was still early, but once aunt Mary Jo decided it was time to question her about why she wasn't thinking about marriage yet, she knew it was time to get out of there. Surely, if she didn't, she would commit justifiable homicide.
Zan looked up from the TV and smiled. "That bad?" he asked.
"You dont even know." Maria said. "First, my cousin told me that i looked like i needed to sleep. Then my grandfather asked me if i was ever going to graduate. Then my other cousin proceeded to make out with her very unattractive boyfriend at my table in the back of the reception. My heel broke. My mom got drunk and told the entire party that her daughter was hearless and she would never have grandchildren." Maria ranted, plopping down on the couch next to Zan.
He sighed and wrapped his arm around her. He knew her family sucked. He hated it. Maria was such a cool girl, full of life, but her family never could realize that. The only thing that was important to them, was her finding a husband and becoming a housewife. Zan could never see Maria like that, nor would he want to. On top of that, her family all hated each other, and they placed Maria in the middle of every argument they had. Zan hated that Maria was so far away, but he knew that she needed to get the fuck away from her fucked up family.
"I'm sorry. But hey, its over. You don't have to see any of them until christmas." Zan said squeezing her tighter.
"Yeah, christmas. isn't that supposed to be the merriest time of year?" Maria said with a grin. Zan smiled, happed to have the real maria back.
"Yeah, well i imagine you will be staying here." Zan said.
"Oh god, that would be awsome." Maria said resting her head on Zan's shoulder. "But enough of that. How was your night?"
"Well, i studied some more for the MCAT, then i just decided that if i read one more sentence i was going to kill someone, so i have been watching 'i love the 80's'. " Zan said.
"Hmmmm. Well, i've got an idea about somthing better we can do." Maria said with a wicked grin.
Zan laughed. "Still sexually frustrated? When i came home last night, you and Alex were going at it. Rather loudly i might add. You got me hard just before i was about to go to sleep." Zan said, faking anger.
"Oh you like it. Besides, i have to make up for the 3 weeks i've been without cock. And the probable month i'll be without cock again!" Maria said as if it were the most obvious thing in th world.
"Hey, its not like you need to twist my arm," Zna said kissing Maria deeply. "I love fucking you."
"Mmmm and i love fucking you, now how about we get to it." Maria said straddling Zan as she slipped her arms around him and kissed him. His mouth opened for her toung as she made quick work of freeing him from his clothes. He did the same to here, ripping her clothes off. "Mmmm Zan." Maria moaned as she grinded her heat into his now exposed cock.
"Maria," Zan gasped grabbing her around the was to still her movement. If she didn't stop, she wasn't going to get to the main course.
"What?" she asked, pretending to be ignorant to what she was doing to him.
"Don't tease..." Zna hissed. Maria giggled and captured Zan's lips in hers. She fucked his mouth with her tound for jsut a minute before raising up and empailing herself on Zan's thick cock. They both moaned and the sensation of being joined.
"Fuck, Zan." Maria screamed as she bounced up and down him, her head thrown back.
"Maria, faster." Zan moaned, and Maria was already there bucking up and down on Zan's cock faster and faster.
"Fuck, mmmm." Maria screamed. She savored the feeling of having a man inside her. There was nothing liek it in the world. It felt so good. She lvoe it. She would always love sex. It was perfect, primal. Sex she could do. It was what everyone thought came with sex that was the problem.
Zan was her favorite fuck buddy. She was attracted to him, and he knew exactly what to do to make her scream. And he also understood her. he understood that she didn't belive in love. That she didn't want a man to be by her side, she just wanted friends, and fuckbuddies. but no one understood that but Alex and Zan. She had broken many hearts, but she always stayed true to herself.
Finally, after they both came, Maria slumped over on Zan's chest. he grinned. "Ok, how bout we move this to the bedroom before Alex kills us for fucking on the couch." Zan said.
"Good idea," Maria said, but as she started to get up, Zan pulled her closer, standing while holding her. She giggled. "When will you people see that i can walk?" she asked with a laugh.
"We jsut like you clinging to us." Zan said with a wink.
"Well, ok." Maria said with a roll of her eyes.
*********
Maria walked out to the parking lot of the airport to look for Liz. Finally, after and entire day of travling, she was back at Hudson. It didn't even faze her. Maria had the best night of sex in a long time last night and she was still flying high from it.
"MARIA!" she heard Liz's voice scream. She looked around and spotted her tiny brown haired roomate and walked to her car.
"Hey, wahts up?" Maria said hugging Liz tight.
"Nothing. You missed one hell of a weekend. Michael and you will have fun, you can both hold your liquor." Liz said.
Maria grinned. "Well, that sucks. I would have rather been here than Roswell. But i got laid!" Maria said.
Liz got behind the wheel. "Really, you lucky bitch." she said good naturedly.
"yeah, i figure its my fee for having to go that that horror of a wedding." Maria said.
"You and your family. Man." Liz said shaking her head. she couldnt understnad it. She would die without her family, but Maria's family, that was somthing she was glad she hadn't had to come up against.
When Maria got back into her room she saw her made bed and looked at Liz. Maria NEVER made her bed. "Oh, yeah, michael crashed in your bed, so he made it."
MAria thought. Hmmm. That was nice of him. She set her stuff down and stripped down to her underware and shirt and got under the covers. Homework could wait until later, now she needed a nap to recouperate from the days travling. Liz turned off the light on her way to the library. Maria snuggled into her down comforter and breathed in deeply. Hmmm, Michael must smell good she thought, sniffing his smell. It wasn't the cologn type of good smell. She wasnt into that. It was jsut a natural smell, mixed with light aftershave. She drifted off to sleep with that smell.
TBC...
I heart you all

Then my other cousin proceeded to make out with her very unattractive boyfriend at my table in the back of the reception. My heel broke. My mom got drunk and told the entire party that her daughter was hearless and she would never have grandchildren." Maria ranted, plopping down on the couch next to Zan.
He sighed and wrapped his arm around her. He knew her family sucked. He hated it. Maria was such a cool girl, full of life, but her family never could realize that. The only thing that was important to them, was her finding a husband and becoming a housewife. Zan could never see Maria like that, nor would he want to. On top of that, her family all hated each other, and they placed Maria in the middle of every argument they had. Zan hated that Maria was so far away, but he knew that she needed to get the fuck away from her fucked up family.
"I'm sorry. But hey, its over. You don't have to see any of them until christmas." Zan said squeezing her tighter.
"Yeah, christmas. isn't that supposed to be the merriest time of year?" Maria said with a grin. Zan smiled, happed to have the real maria back.
"Yeah, well i imagine you will be staying here." Zan said.
"Oh god, that would be awsome." Maria said resting her head on Zan's shoulder. "But enough of that. How was your night?"
"Well, i studied some more for the MCAT, then i just decided that if i read one more sentence i was going to kill someone, so i have been watching 'i love the 80's'. " Zan said.
"Hmmmm. Well, i've got an idea about somthing better we can do." Maria said with a wicked grin.
Zan laughed. "Still sexually frustrated? When i came home last night, you and Alex were going at it. Rather loudly i might add. You got me hard just before i was about to go to sleep." Zan said, faking anger.
"Oh you like it. Besides, i have to make up for the 3 weeks i've been without cock. And the probable month i'll be without cock again!" Maria said as if it were the most obvious thing in th world.
"Hey, its not like you need to twist my arm," Zna said kissing Maria deeply. "I love fucking you."
"Mmmm and i love fucking you, now how about we get to it." Maria said straddling Zan as she slipped her arms around him and kissed him. His mouth opened for her toung as she made quick work of freeing him from his clothes. He did the same to here, ripping her clothes off. "Mmmm Zan." Maria moaned as she grinded her heat into his now exposed cock.
"Maria," Zan gasped grabbing her around the was to still her movement. If she didn't stop, she wasn't going to get to the main course.
"What?" she asked, pretending to be ignorant to what she was doing to him.
"Don't tease..." Zna hissed. Maria giggled and captured Zan's lips in hers. She fucked his mouth with her tound for jsut a minute before raising up and empailing herself on Zan's thick cock. They both moaned and the sensation of being joined.
"Fuck, Zan." Maria screamed as she bounced up and down him, her head thrown back.
"Maria, faster." Zan moaned, and Maria was already there bucking up and down on Zan's cock faster and faster.
"Fuck, mmmm." Maria screamed. She savored the feeling of having a man inside her. There was nothing liek it in the world. It felt so good. She lvoe it. She would always love sex. It was perfect, primal. Sex she could do. It was what everyone thought came with sex that was the problem.
Zan was her favorite fuck buddy. She was attracted to him, and he knew exactly what to do to make her scream. And he also understood her. he understood that she didn't belive in love. That she didn't want a man to be by her side, she just wanted friends, and fuckbuddies. but no one understood that but Alex and Zan. She had broken many hearts, but she always stayed true to herself.
Finally, after they both came, Maria slumped over on Zan's chest. he grinned. "Ok, how bout we move this to the bedroom before Alex kills us for fucking on the couch." Zan said.
"Good idea," Maria said, but as she started to get up, Zan pulled her closer, standing while holding her. She giggled. "When will you people see that i can walk?" she asked with a laugh.
"We jsut like you clinging to us." Zan said with a wink.
"Well, ok." Maria said with a roll of her eyes.
*********
Maria walked out to the parking lot of the airport to look for Liz. Finally, after and entire day of travling, she was back at Hudson. It didn't even faze her. Maria had the best night of sex in a long time last night and she was still flying high from it.
"MARIA!" she heard Liz's voice scream. She looked around and spotted her tiny brown haired roomate and walked to her car.
"Hey, wahts up?" Maria said hugging Liz tight.
"Nothing. You missed one hell of a weekend. Michael and you will have fun, you can both hold your liquor." Liz said.
Maria grinned. "Well, that sucks. I would have rather been here than Roswell. But i got laid!" Maria said.
Liz got behind the wheel. "Really, you lucky bitch." she said good naturedly.
"yeah, i figure its my fee for having to go that that horror of a wedding." Maria said.
"You and your family. Man." Liz said shaking her head. she couldnt understnad it. She would die without her family, but Maria's family, that was somthing she was glad she hadn't had to come up against.
When Maria got back into her room she saw her made bed and looked at Liz. Maria NEVER made her bed. "Oh, yeah, michael crashed in your bed, so he made it."
MAria thought. Hmmm. That was nice of him. She set her stuff down and stripped down to her underware and shirt and got under the covers. Homework could wait until later, now she needed a nap to recouperate from the days travling. Liz turned off the light on her way to the library. Maria snuggled into her down comforter and breathed in deeply. Hmmm, Michael must smell good she thought, sniffing his smell. It wasn't the cologn type of good smell. She wasnt into that. It was jsut a natural smell, mixed with light aftershave. She drifted off to sleep with that smell.

RhondaAnn: Thanks for the feedback 
Chapter 6
The next week went by extra slow. Maria had about 10 books to read and 3 papers to write. If she was being fair, it was because she was a major procrastinator. She knew she had all that work to do, but she was putting it off.
"Where you going?" Maria asked Liz, as she picked up her books and walked out the door.
"Library. Ton of work," Liz answered.
"Yeah, me too. I'll probably wait until about 1:00am to do it though. You know, you only need about 30 minutes to write a good paper." she said with a smile. Liz rolled her eyes and shook her head.
When Liz was gone, Maria got up off the bed and headed to isabel's room. "Ready to smoke?" she asked.
"Always," Isabel said, stopping her game of computer solitare and getting her smokes.
Outside it was still warm. It was mid-september and hot as hell. But it wasn't the Roswell hot. In Roswell it was hot, but dry. In Virginia it was hot with a humidity percentage of 1000%. "It is so hot," Maria moaned.
"You're a wuss." Isabel said with a laugh. In Tennesse it was actually worse than this. Suddenly Maria's phone started ringing.
"Hello?" she answered. It was Courtney. maria told her they were on the Balcony smoking, and she made her way up to joing them. "Courtney is comming," Maria said taking a long drag off her ciggarette. Oh Nicotine. What a glorious thing.
When Courtney got up to the balcony she sat in the remainging rocking chair. "So, how was class today?" she aked.
"Well, i only had Poli Sci today, but then work study kicked my ass." Maria said leaning further back in her chair.
"It was good," Isabel said, "Someone's got to gaurd that museum." she said and all the girls laughed. Isabel's work study was a gaurd at the art museum. It was funny first of all becuase no one wants to fuck off in the tiny ass art museum, and secondly becuase Isabel took her job so seriously.
"Well, I think i might kill my sciology prof." Courtney said lighting anouther ciggarette. They all noticed that they had become chian smokers since hanging with each other.
"Oh God! What now? He tell you that the Coca-Cola Company planned 9/11?" Maria asked with a laugh. Professor Pierce was nuts.
"Oh no. Today it was that we need to raise minimum waige to 10 dollars an hour. I mean has the man ever taken an economics class??? INFLATION! hello!" she ranted. Isabel and Maria grinned at her. "I mean the man has a PhD! How does that happen?"
"Well, i can't agree with you more, but you know how those people are. They are too idealistic to see reality." Maria stated logically. Courtney nodded.
Then Isabel's phone rang. "Hello?" Isabel answered.
"Hey, it's Kyle."
"Hey sweetie, whats' up?" Isabel said brightly.
"Is Michael still comming back up there not this weekend but next weekend?" Kyle asked.
"Yeha, why?"
"I thought i'd come with him. You know, i havn't seen you in a while." Kyle said.
Isabel stood up and jumped up and down, "Ok Kyle, that would be awesome!!!!!!" She screamed. maria and Courtney looked at each other and grinned. Whatever Isabel was talking about, aparently it was good.
"Yeah, i'll ask him. I dont know why you don't just ask him. Its not like he hates you." Isabel siad sitting back down.
"I know, but we arnt that close. Thanks Iz. I got to go, talk to you later, babe." Kyle said then hung up. Isabel turned to her friends and smiled.
"Kyle's comming up with Michael next weekend!" she said.
"Awesome. Two boys at one time...what ever are we going to do?" maria said with a laugh.
******
The weekened ended much to early, but luckily Maria got all her shit done. It was Sunday and she could relax. Isabel came into her room and sat down next to Liz on the bed. "What's up, Iz?" Maria asked.
"i'm depressed," she said with a frown.
"Aww, what's wrong?" Liz asked.
"I dunno, i'm just in a funk" Isabel said.
"I know!" Maria said eyes wide, "Why don't we all cuddle in bed put in The Notebook and cry!" she was kind of in a funk as well, and she knew this would be theraputic.
Isabel and Liz smiled and nodded, "Yeah. Defenitly." isabel said. "Let me go get into my Pj's." she said leaving the room.
When she came back, she and Liz got into Maria's bed and Maria started the movie.
By the end all three were crying like none other. not only was that movie sad, but they all needed a good cry. When it was over, Maria, Isabel, and Liz went outside for a smoke. Liz rarely smoked, but occasionally she would, and after that emotional rollercoaster, she was craving some nicotine.
"That was so sad." isabel said.
"Yeah, but it was also happy. I mean, they found true love." Liz said.
"Its movies like that, that make me wish i belived in love." Maria said.
Isabel and Liz's faces turned into smiles. "Really?" they said, hopping that Maria would change her mind about love.
"Now, dont get your hopes up. i dont belive love like that exists. If it did, i'd be all for it, but i dont think there are any men out there like Noah. And i'm way smarter than Ally. It just makes me kinda wish i had someone to love. But then my mind comes back, and i realized i'm just being girly." Maria clarified with a nod of the head.
Isabel and Liz grinned at her and jsut said ok. When would they realized Love didn't exist, Maria wondered. Oh well, it would be sad for them. She on the other hand wasn't going to have her heart broken, becuase she was never giving it out.

A/N: Ok...i'm sorry it's been so long since i have updated...finals and papers sucked...but i'm all done...so lets see what happens...i hope you like me update...much love everyone who is still being patient with me and this story 
Chapter 7
A few days later, Maria's workstudy was cancelled and she was really excited. She made her way quickly back to her dorm so she could sit on the balcony and have a ciggarette or five. When she climbed the stairs, she noticed two girls and two guys in her usual place on the balcony. One of the girls was sitting on the edge of the balcony with a bottle of wine in her hand. it didn't look safe, Maria made it a point to keep and eye on her.
"Hey, who are you?" the blond sitting on the edge of the balcony. She was obviously smashed.
"Ummm, I'm Maria. A Transfer." Maria answered. One of the guys, tall with dark hair, much like Alex, got up and let Maria sit in his Rocking chair. Maria smiled and nodded at him.
The brunette girl next to Maria smiled and stuck out her hand, "Hi, I'm Kayle. That's Katie." She said acknowledging her drunk friend. "Then she pointed to the boy now sitting far away from them, the one who gave up his seat, "That is Clarkie. And this is John." Kayle finished pointing at the boy on Maria's left.
"Nice to meet you guys." Maria said with a smile as she took anouther drag off of her Camel Light.
"So what's your sign?" Katie asked loudly as she took anouther big gulp from her bottle.
"Umm I'm a Taurus, actually." Maria said. "What about you."
"Libra Bitches." Katie Yelled!
maria giggled. "I would have picked you for a Taurus," Kayle said. "We are into the Zodiac."
"Actually, i'm sort of into the Zodiac, myself." Maria said. "I have a book upstairs about the soulmate and the Zodiac. It's somewhat ironic becuse i dont belive in Soulmates."
"Hmmm, thats interesting, being that you are a Taurus, they are very into True Love. Maybe your moon and accendent are different." Kayle said.
Katie began picking on Clarkie, "Clarkie. You are really a fun guy. Why are you such an asshole." Katie said with a laugh. Maria held in her own laughter. She looked over at Clarkie. The poor guy, looked like he just lost his last friend, and Katie was not cutting him a break.
"What kind of boyfriend doesn't talk to his girlfriend." Katie said as she stepped on the edge of the pot they used as an ashtray. Her foot didn't get a good grip and she fell forward practically into Maria's lap. Katie began laughing hysterically as Clarkie shot up to make sure she was ok.
"You ok, Katie." he asked.
"Yeah, i'm fine." she said through bouts of laughter. Then she looked into Maria's eyes. "I like you. You're cool." She said as she got up and John stood up to allow her to sit in an actual seat.
The five of he, sat outside smoking for a couple of hours. Maria actually really liked both Kayle and Katie. They were roomates and best friend. Kayle was a Cancer and Katie a Libera, they were basic opposites, but they worked well together. Clarkie didn't say much of anything, and John just asked the usual questions. What is your Major? Where are you from, that sort of thing.
Suddenly, Katie stood up and said, "YOu know waht we should do. Have a 'love your body party'!"
"A what?" Maria asked with a laugh.
"A love your body party," Kayle said. "Whenever we get down on ourselves, and get over critical of our bodies, we just take off our clothes and look at ourselves in the mirror."
"Hmmm, that's a good idea," Maria said thinking up it. Then Isabel walked out the door.
"What up?" she asked lighting up.
"Umm, apparently Katie, Kayle, and i are going to get drunk and take our clothes off." maria said.
"Sounds like fun," Isabel said with a strange look on her face.
'You should come" Kayle said.
"Yeah, i dont think so." Isabel said. When they were dne with thier ciggarettes, Katie, Kayle and Maria said goodbye to the guys and they went inside for the 'love your body party'.
On the way in, Kayle took Maria's hand and said "We can find out all your Zodialogical signs. It will be great."
Maria got into the room and the girls put on, "Let me get that Pussy Wet!" and after a little proding, they got Maria out of her clothes. They danced all night.
********
Three hours later, a drunk Maria stumbled into her room with half her clothes on. Well, she was a Taurus sun sign and moon sign and her accending sign was Aries. Kayle told her that was why she was fickle and not into love.
Maria passed out the minute she his the bed, she didn't hear Liz cuckled at her drunken state.

A/N: Srry this is a short update. The next one will be longer, I promise
Chapter 8
Maria woke up Frida morning and slammd off her alarm clock. “Time to get up,” Liz said checking her hair in the mirror.
“Uhh,” Maria moaned. “I’m skipping. I think I’m feeling a little bit of the bubonic plague coming on.” She said as she pulled the comforter over her head.
Liz laughed lightly. “Okay. I’ll wake you up after class for lunch.” She said on her way out the door. Maria just grunted and began to drift back to sleep, only to be awakened by a loud, annoying knock at the door.
Maria played dead and ignored the knocking. ‘They will go away,’ she thought. Well, she thought wrong. Eryn, the annoying girl down the hall walked into the room and over to Maria. She shook her awake. Finally, with a huff, maria peeksed her head out from under the covers. “What?” she asked.
“What are you doing?” Eryn asked with dumb eyes.
Maria looked at her incredulously. What was she doing?!?! It was 9:30 am and she was in bed, under the covers. Survey says: SLEEPING!!! “I was sleeping,” Maria answered with quite a bit of attitude.
“Oh,” Eryn said, sitting on Maria’s bed. ‘Make yourself at home,’ Maria thought as she rolled her eyes. “Well, are you going to the soccer game tonight?” Eryn asked.
“Ummm, chances are no.” Maria said with a laugh. In fact, she could bet her life that she was not going to be an the soccer game.
“Oh,” Eryn said disappointedly, “because the choir is singing tonight.”
“Oh,” Maria said. She didn’t really care, she just wanted Eryn to leave. Finally, her wish was granted and Eryn left. ‘Jesus that chick is weird.’
Finally, Maria got back to sleep. Though the crazy sex dream she had been having about Judd Nelson, circa Breakfast Club did not come back. ‘Dammit!’
*******
“So, when are Michael and Kyle getting here?” Liz asked Isabel as they along with Maria, Courtney, and Tess lunged in Maria and Liz’s room.
Isabel looked at her watch. “About anytime.” She said. Maria could see that Isabel was excited about her friends coming. “I can’t wait for you to meet them,” Isabel said to Maria.
“What are we doing tonight?” Maria asked. “You know, we could invite Kyle and Michael to one of katie’s infamous ‘love your body’ parties.” Maria suggested with a laugh.
The girls laughed at the mental image that thought brought about. “Kyle would be into it, but Michael would probably have a heart attack.” Isabel said.
“Gay?” Maria asked somewhat disappointed.
“Haha. No.” Isabel said, “Just a little scared of girls I think. I mean he was cool when he was here a could of weekends ago, but usually, I try to introduce him to girls and to runs away.”
Just then there was a knock at the door. “Come in,” Liz yelled. The door opened and in stepped Kyle and Michael.
“Michael!” The girls called and Isabel and Liz got up to hug him. Maria took a moment to look at the guys. Kyle was cute. Short, but very attractive. He had beautiful eyes and looked like he knew how to have a good time. Then Maria trned her attention to Michael. He was hot. There was not getting around it. He was tall, and had big hands. She loved big hands. Not to mention he was sporting a brooding scowl. Whew.
Remembering her manners, Maria got up and introduced herself. “I’m Maria,” she said, extending her hand for them to shake. Kyle did so, vigourously, and Michael shook her hand with a firm but gentle grip at he took the time to check her out. He had to say, she was gorgeous.
“Kyle this is Tess, Courtney, and Liz.” Isabel finished the introductions. Kyle grinned at the girls. Yeah, he was in heaven.
“You guys hungry?” Maria asked.
“Starving,” Kyle answered.
“I could eat.” Michael said.
“How about Macados?” Isabel said. Everyone burst into laughter. It was Isabel’s favorite restaurant, and everyone knew that were she wanted to go. They are agreed because it was a smoking restaurant and they had the best sandwiches in the world.
“Yeah, then we are going to get some alcohol and play some asshole.” Maria said with conviction.
Across the room, Michael smiled. Maria seemed to be cool people. And damn she was hot. It’s a good thing Isabel threatened bodily harm if he acted shy around these girls, it would force him to talk to Maria.

Chapter 8
Maria woke up Frida morning and slammd off her alarm clock. “Time to get up,” Liz said checking her hair in the mirror.
“Uhh,” Maria moaned. “I’m skipping. I think I’m feeling a little bit of the bubonic plague coming on.” She said as she pulled the comforter over her head.
Liz laughed lightly. “Okay. I’ll wake you up after class for lunch.” She said on her way out the door. Maria just grunted and began to drift back to sleep, only to be awakened by a loud, annoying knock at the door.
Maria played dead and ignored the knocking. ‘They will go away,’ she thought. Well, she thought wrong. Eryn, the annoying girl down the hall walked into the room and over to Maria. She shook her awake. Finally, with a huff, maria peeksed her head out from under the covers. “What?” she asked.
“What are you doing?” Eryn asked with dumb eyes.
Maria looked at her incredulously. What was she doing?!?! It was 9:30 am and she was in bed, under the covers. Survey says: SLEEPING!!! “I was sleeping,” Maria answered with quite a bit of attitude.
“Oh,” Eryn said, sitting on Maria’s bed. ‘Make yourself at home,’ Maria thought as she rolled her eyes. “Well, are you going to the soccer game tonight?” Eryn asked.
“Ummm, chances are no.” Maria said with a laugh. In fact, she could bet her life that she was not going to be an the soccer game.
“Oh,” Eryn said disappointedly, “because the choir is singing tonight.”
“Oh,” Maria said. She didn’t really care, she just wanted Eryn to leave. Finally, her wish was granted and Eryn left. ‘Jesus that chick is weird.’
Finally, Maria got back to sleep. Though the crazy sex dream she had been having about Judd Nelson, circa Breakfast Club did not come back. ‘Dammit!’
*******
“So, when are Michael and Kyle getting here?” Liz asked Isabel as they along with Maria, Courtney, and Tess lunged in Maria and Liz’s room.
Isabel looked at her watch. “About anytime.” She said. Maria could see that Isabel was excited about her friends coming. “I can’t wait for you to meet them,” Isabel said to Maria.
“What are we doing tonight?” Maria asked. “You know, we could invite Kyle and Michael to one of katie’s infamous ‘love your body’ parties.” Maria suggested with a laugh.
The girls laughed at the mental image that thought brought about. “Kyle would be into it, but Michael would probably have a heart attack.” Isabel said.
“Gay?” Maria asked somewhat disappointed.
“Haha. No.” Isabel said, “Just a little scared of girls I think. I mean he was cool when he was here a could of weekends ago, but usually, I try to introduce him to girls and to runs away.”
Just then there was a knock at the door. “Come in,” Liz yelled. The door opened and in stepped Kyle and Michael.
“Michael!” The girls called and Isabel and Liz got up to hug him. Maria took a moment to look at the guys. Kyle was cute. Short, but very attractive. He had beautiful eyes and looked like he knew how to have a good time. Then Maria trned her attention to Michael. He was hot. There was not getting around it. He was tall, and had big hands. She loved big hands. Not to mention he was sporting a brooding scowl. Whew.
Remembering her manners, Maria got up and introduced herself. “I’m Maria,” she said, extending her hand for them to shake. Kyle did so, vigourously, and Michael shook her hand with a firm but gentle grip at he took the time to check her out. He had to say, she was gorgeous.
“Kyle this is Tess, Courtney, and Liz.” Isabel finished the introductions. Kyle grinned at the girls. Yeah, he was in heaven.
“You guys hungry?” Maria asked.
“Starving,” Kyle answered.
“I could eat.” Michael said.
“How about Macados?” Isabel said. Everyone burst into laughter. It was Isabel’s favorite restaurant, and everyone knew that were she wanted to go. They are agreed because it was a smoking restaurant and they had the best sandwiches in the world.
“Yeah, then we are going to get some alcohol and play some asshole.” Maria said with conviction.
Across the room, Michael smiled. Maria seemed to be cool people. And damn she was hot. It’s a good thing Isabel threatened bodily harm if he acted shy around these girls, it would force him to talk to Maria.

A/N: Song used was not written by me or Maria DeLuca, obviously…it’s all Kelly Clarkson/Dave Hodges/Ben Moody
Chapter 9
The gang sat down at the table in Macado's and Maria, Isabel, Michael, Kyle, and Courtney immediatly pulled out thier pack of ciggarettes and lit up.
"God, you guys. We barely sat down, and already a smoke cloud has formed above us." Tess said waving her hand dramatically in the air.
"Wa Wa." Isabel said mocking a baby's cry.
The rest of the table laughed. Tess and Kyle were across from each other on the inside of the table. Then Liz and Courtney. Then Maria and Isabel, with Michael in a chair at the end of the table.
When the waiter came up to the table, he had a little too much spunk for Michael's taste. After he practically did a danc while taking everyone's order, Michael leaned over to Maria and said, "That guys is annoying."
Maria giggled and nodded, "Yeah, he's a little over-zealous." she said to Michael with a wink. He smiled back at her.
“So, Maria, Isabel said you were a Music Major.” Kyle said trying to make conversation.
“Yeah, Vocal Performance and Political Science.” Maria said.
“You ever write anything?” Michael asked taking a drag off of his Marlboro Red.
Maria looked down at her menu. “Ummm, yeah, I write music.” She said shyly. It was the first time any of her friends had seen her look unconfident.
“Oh My God, you know what we should do tonight?” Liz said as a light bulb went off in her head. Everyone looked at her as if to ask, what. “We should go to Comet. That new singers club.” She said as if it where the best idea in the world.
“Well, we don’t have anything better to do.” Isabel said. Maria smiled, that could be cool. She could meet some fellow singer/songwriters.
“Sounds like a plan,” Kyle said turning his attention back to Tess, who he had an eye on since he walked into Maria and Liz’s room. She was hot and really sweet, just what he liked in a girl.
Michael leaned over to Maria and whispered, “So, are you going to play us something at the club tonight?”
Maria shrugged, “I guess if everyone wants me to.” She said. She really didn’t know if she wanted to share her music with her friends yet. The only people who had heard her stuff were Alex, Zan, and Vocal coach back in Roswell.
“We do!” Isabel said dramatically. “Please, we really want to hear your music.” She pleaded.
Maria giggled. “Alright. I guess, if they will give me a slot I can play you a song.”
Everyone seemed happy with this and went back to talking. Michael spent most of his time talking to Maria, which surprised Isabel, since she could barely get him to talk to anyone, especially not girls.
Michael was beginning to like Maria a lot. She was smart, funny, and nice in her own sarcastic way. He loved her charisma. He was never able to be as outgoing at Maria, and that was the thing that attracted him to her. She could and would talk to anyone who would listen. He was doing well to say ‘hi’ to someone he knew.
Soon, the food came. “God, I love their turkey here.” Maria said as she dramatically bit into her sandwich. Michael went with the Ruben, when made Maria turn up her nose.
“What?” Michael asked with a laugh.
“You’re going to EAT that?” she asked disgusted as she pointed to his sauerkraut and corned beef sandwich.
“Yeah and I’m going to enjoy it.” He said taking a big bit. He couldn’t help himself, getting a rise out of Maria was something he could do anyday.
“Suit yourself. Don’t call me when you need a quadruple bypass.” Maria said as she continued to eat her own sandwich.
An hour later, the groups made their way down the street to the new club. Maria was really nervous. Singing for all the people in the crowd wouldn’t be so hard, but singing for her friends would. And for some reason, singing her own work in front of Michael made her stomach do flip flops. She silently berated herself for being so stupid. He was just a guy, and her friends would not judge her.
When they got in the club, Maria put her name on the list and they found seats at a large table near the front. Liz could tell Maria was nervous, so she leaned over and placed her delicate hand on Maria’s thigh. “You are going to be great.” She said with a smiled.
“Thank you,” Maria whispered back.
Maria was 3rd on the list. She sat and listened to the two performers in front of her, each doing a song a piece. The first one was a girl about 18, she was pretty go, though she had a tendancy toward the Avril Lavigne. Then there was a guy who thought he was Dashboard Confessional.
Finally, it was Maria’s turn to sing her song. She noticed that the two previous singers had explained their song she decided she would as well. She climbed the stairs to the stage and moved the piano to center-stage where she sat. She moved the mike in front of her and started. “Ummm, this is my first time performing my own work. I wrote this song two years ago after a really bad break-up. I hope you all enjoy it.” She said with a nervous smiled as she quickly warmed up her fingers on the piano. Then she cleared her throat and began to sing.
I will not make
The same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break
The way you did, you fell so hard
I’ve learned the hard way
To never let it get that far
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
Because of you I am afraid
Liz, Isabel, Tess, and Courtney watched their friend on the stage. She had so much emotion. It was obvious that this song was still close to home, with her. They had no idea what kind of break-up Maria had gone through, but whatever happened, it was bad.
I lose my way
And it’s not too long before you point it out
I cannot cry
Because I know that’s weakness in your eyes
I’m forced to fake
A smile, a laugh, every day of my life
My heart can’t possibly break
When it wasn’t even whole to start with
I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing
Michael watched Maria sing and was mesmerized. Her voice was beautiful. She was beautiful. But the song touched him. Maria was also broken. She was hurting, still, from whatever it was that made he write this song. He couldn’t take his eyes off of her, he didn’t care who was watching him, he couldn’t look away if he tried. But he wasn’t trying. He liked watching her.
Because of you
Because of you
Because of you I am afraid
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don’t get hurt
Because of you I try my hardest just to forget everything
Because of you
I don’t know how to let anyone else in
Because of you
I’m ashamed of my life because it’s empty
Because of you I am afraid
Because of you
Maria ended the song and bowed before a roaring crowed, soon everyone in the club, including her friends were standing and cheering for her. Maria wiped some stray tears from her eyes and smiled, thanked the crowd and returned to her seat.
“That was fucking awesome.” Isabel said.
“Wow,” Courntey said.
“Sing me to sleep tonight.” Tess said with a laugh.
“Me too.” Kyle said with a crooked grin.
“I told you, you would do fine.” Liz said hugging Maria. “You are awesome.” She said with a sincere smiled.
When Maria sat next to Michael he leaned over and said. “You are amazing.” Maria smiled to herself and they watched a few more singers before making their way back to Hudson.
**********
Maria and Michael were sitting on the balcony alone, late that night. Everyone had already passed out from heavy drinking. “You drunk?” Maria asked Michael.
“Nope” he said taking a swig of beer.
“Yeah, me either. Sucks doesn’t it?” She said taking a drag off of her Camel Light.
“What’s that?” Michael asked looked at Maria. It was beautiful the way her hair shined in the moonlight.
“Being able to hold your liquor. In my case, I’m never a cheap date, not to mention that I’m always the last one to pass out. At least I have a buddy this time.” She said smiling at Michael. Michael was a cool guy. They had been talking most of the night. Never getting too deep on each other, but they did spend most of the night together. They just seemed to find each other in the room. It was weird.
“Yeah, but at least it’s not as easy for people to take advantage of you.” Michael reasoned.
“Easier than you would think,” Maria said more to herself. Michael could tell there was more to that statement but let it go.
“Well, it’s like 6 am, and I know Isabel is going to have us up by at least noon, so maybe we should it the sack.” Michael said putting out his smoke and standing up. He reached out his hand to help Maria up and she smiled accepting his help.
“Yeah, you crashing in my room?” she asked.
“Is that cool?” Michael asked.
“Yeah, no problem.” Maria said.
In her room, Michael laid down on the floor. “You know we could share the bed.” Maria said, seeing no reason why a grown man should sleep on the floor.
“On, no. I’m ok.” Michael got out. He knew that sleeping in a twin bed with Maria DeLuca would surely kill him.
“Ok, but if you get uncomfortable, just push me over and get in.” Maria said.

Chapter 10
The next Morning, or afternoon rather, Maria woke up and looked that clock. 1:00pm! She only had 30 minutes to get to the dining hall before it closed. Liz was already gone, but Michael was laying on the floor. Maria smiled at the site of him. He was adorable when he slept. Like a little kid.
She pushed herslef out of bed and shook Michael awake. "Michael!" she yelled. Finally her opened his eyes. He had to say that Maria's face was somthing he could wake up to anytime. "We gotta go if we are going to make Brunch and i'm fucking starving," Maria said.
Michael sat up and got his barrings. "Alright, I'm comming." he said groggily. "Where is everyone else?" he asked.
"Dont know. Apparently we are the only people who like our sleep around here." Maria said with a huff.
Finally they gt out of the room. They knocked on Isabel, Tess, and Courtney's door, but no one was around. They shruged and headed to the Caf.
When they got there they saw Isabel, Kyle, Tess, Liz and Courtney sitting on the benches outside. "Finally," isabel said.
"Why didn't you wake us up?" Maria asked.
"Liz wouldn't let us." Isabel huffed. Liz giggled and rolled her eyes.
"Alright, well we are going to eat. See you in the room when we are done?" maria said.
"Yeah, later." Everyone said, adn Maria led the way into the dinning hall.
"They have omletes again?" Michael asked like a kid in a candy store. Maria giggled at him.
"Yeah, everyday." she said.
"Sweet!" Michael exclaimed. Maria just shook her head. Yeah the omletes were okay. That is they were okay compared to the toxic waste that Moody Dinning Hall usually served, but they were cirtainly nothing to write home about. Maria had to wonder what Michael ate back home.
When they were walking to a table Maria began laughing out loud. "What's so funny?" Michael asked.
"Look around you. Do you see these girls, they are STARING are you!" Maria said looking at all the girls in Moody that were literally drooling over Michael.
Michael looked uncomfortable as he sat down and looked around, "You guys must not have guys here very often." he said.
"Well, that's true. It also can't hurt that you are hot." Maria said non-chalantly. Michael didn't even know what to say. He had never met a girl blunt enough to say somthing like that out loud. Besides that fact that there was no way in hell that Maria actually thought HE was hot.
"Maybe I should stare back." Michael said with a laugh, changing the subject. He turned around and looked at all of the girls in the eyes. Immediatly the went back to eating.
"Seems to have worked." Maria said taking a bite of her bagel. Michael dove right into his omlete. Maria watched him and laughed to herslef.
"So, what do we have planned today?" Michael asked.
"I don't know, but i plan on actually getting trashed tonight, so i'm not doing a hell of a lot. I'm a Taurus. I'm a homebody. I think i'm just going to chill and watch movies all day." Maria said.
Michael thought that sounded nice. Watching movies with Maria. "Can i join you? I'm a homebody myself." he said.
"Well, of course you are. You're a Cancer." Maria siad. And my love match, she added to herslef. Taurus's and Cancers are love matches but A Taurus, Taurus, Aries, which was what she was, PERFECT love match was a Cancer man. Not that she cared, she wasn't looking for lvoe. She had a feeling that Michael and his hands could be fun to play with though.
Michael and Maria sat in an oncomfortale silence for a little while after that before Michael stepped out on a limb and said, "So, that song you sang last night was really good.
"Oh, thank you." Maria blushed. Michael didn't even know the girl COULD blush. "That song is still kind of sensitive to me." Maria explained.
"I could tell," Michael said trying to get her to open up.
"It was a bad break up. What can i say. I dated this guy, Billy, for a year and a half. Which i realize, now, is way too long. He was my first." maria said looking down. "Well, as all things with relationships go, it didn't work out. The rest is history, as they say." she finished, not making eye contact with Michael.
"What happened?" Michael found himself asking. He couldn't control himself; he wanted to know.
"Hmmm, well lots of things. He cheated on me. He liked to knock me around. I was too 'independent' for him. We just got sick of each other." Maria answered, trying not to elaborate. She didn't know Michael nearly well enough to tell him the whole story.
Michael could tell that Maria didnt want to talk about it, so he dropped it, sort of. "He hit you?" he asked outraged. That was unexceptable. He didn't take a guy hitting a girl for any reason, but especially not Maria. He already felt protective of her.
"Yeah, several times." Was all maria said, and let it go.
"That's not cool." Michael said, but he changed the subject, "So, what movies you have in mind?"
*********
Maria flopped down on her bed and michael sat next to her. The rest of the gang went to hang out at the Market. "I love this movie" he said, as Maria put in Romeo and Juliet by Baz Luhrman. She was suprised, most guys ran for the hills when she even MENTIONED the movie. But Michael was a Cancer.
"Me too," she said. She laid down behind MIchael who was sitting in front of her face. "You think we could switch?" she said looking up at him.
"Oh!" he exclaimed. "I didn't realize...yeah." he said getting behing her and laying down. Maria smiled to herself, well that wasn't that hard. They made themselves comfortable on the bed and she pressed play.
2 movies later, Maria had fallen asleep. IN her sleep, she unconsciously moved closer and closer to the drowsy Michael, until they were spooning on the bed, completely asleep. Maria held tight to Michael, not realizing she was going it, and Michael was holding her tight as well. He smelled his hair in his sleep and smiled
That was how Liz, Isabel, and Courtney found them. "Maria, get your ass up!" Isabel yelled. Maria opened her eyes and grunted.
"What time is it?" she asked. Michael was also comming to, and he looked at his arms wrapped around Maria's waste and untangled himself from her.
"7:00! It's time to put your drinking shorts on!" Courntey siad.
*********
Several games of AssHole and Up the River-Down the River later, Maria was trashed. Michael was a little tipsy, but not completely gone. He was helping her up the stairs when Kyle stopped him. "Hey man, I'm going to sleep in Tess's room tonight." Kyle informed Michael so that he would know where to find him.
"Cool." Michael said.
Liz had gone to Radford College with her friends from across the quad, so Michael was crashing in Maria's room. "Michael, you're so strong." maria said in a fake girly accent. Then she giggled at herself.
Michael laughed as well. Maria was far from girly, that was one of the things he liked about her. All the girls back home were money hungry bitches, Maria didn't care about stuff like that.
When they got to her room. "Michael, spoon with me!" she demanded as she stripped out of her clothes right in front of him. He didn't even know what to do. He wanted to look away and yet he didn't. She had a killer body, and he would be unmale if he said he didn't like looking at it.
Before she took all of her clothes off, Maria pulled pulled out a huge teeshit and hap-hazardly pulled it over hear head. Michael wasn't sure if she should sleep in the same bed with Maria, but h e figured, he had already done it once what was the harm in doing it again.
Maria climbed in her bed, and Michael followed. "Damnit!" Maria exclaimed.
"What?" Michael asked.
"Light. I left the light on." she said with a pout that he found completely adorable.
"I got it." he said getting out of bed and turning the light off. He slipped if jeans off and got back in bed. Maria cuddled into him and lightly caressed his chest.
"You're so fucking hot." he blurted out.
"Your drunk." Michael said with a laugh.
"That may be true, but you are still hot." Maria countered.
"Whatever you say." Michael said sarcastically.
"I dont mean to make you uncomfortable, it's just a fact. You should except it. Quite your job and become a trophy husband." she said before she laughed hysterically at herslef. "Sorry, i'm acting like an asshole. I'm just really drunk." Maria apologized.
"It's ok, i understand. I've been there myself." Michael said rubbing Maria's exposed shoulder. Looking at her in the big tee-shirt was making him hard. She was so hot, but he tried to think about baseball until they both drifted off to sleep.

The next day, Michael and KYle left early. Maria hugged them both and pulled Michael aside. "So, you're comming back in a couple of weeks, right?" she asked. She liked hanging out with Michael, she wanted him to come back. Maybe she could even get him to losen up enough to fuck her, she thought with a grin.
"Yeah, here is my number," he said pulling out a pen and writting it down. "Call me sometime. You knwo i wont be doing anything." he saidm
Maria rolled her eyes. If that boy would socialize he would have not problem makign friends. "Alright, I'll call you tonight. Make sure Kyle didn't run you off the road." Maria said with a wink.
isabel cried when they left. Then the girls all went back to thier rooms to work on school-work for the up-comming week.
The next Morning, or afternoon rather, Maria woke up and looked that clock. 1:00pm! She only had 30 minutes to get to the dining hall before it closed. Liz was already gone, but Michael was laying on the floor. Maria smiled at the site of him. He was adorable when he slept. Like a little kid.
She pushed herslef out of bed and shook Michael awake. "Michael!" she yelled. Finally her opened his eyes. He had to say that Maria's face was somthing he could wake up to anytime. "We gotta go if we are going to make Brunch and i'm fucking starving," Maria said.
Michael sat up and got his barrings. "Alright, I'm comming." he said groggily. "Where is everyone else?" he asked.
"Dont know. Apparently we are the only people who like our sleep around here." Maria said with a huff.
Finally they gt out of the room. They knocked on Isabel, Tess, and Courtney's door, but no one was around. They shruged and headed to the Caf.
When they got there they saw Isabel, Kyle, Tess, Liz and Courtney sitting on the benches outside. "Finally," isabel said.
"Why didn't you wake us up?" Maria asked.
"Liz wouldn't let us." Isabel huffed. Liz giggled and rolled her eyes.
"Alright, well we are going to eat. See you in the room when we are done?" maria said.
"Yeah, later." Everyone said, adn Maria led the way into the dinning hall.
"They have omletes again?" Michael asked like a kid in a candy store. Maria giggled at him.
"Yeah, everyday." she said.
"Sweet!" Michael exclaimed. Maria just shook her head. Yeah the omletes were okay. That is they were okay compared to the toxic waste that Moody Dinning Hall usually served, but they were cirtainly nothing to write home about. Maria had to wonder what Michael ate back home.
When they were walking to a table Maria began laughing out loud. "What's so funny?" Michael asked.
"Look around you. Do you see these girls, they are STARING are you!" Maria said looking at all the girls in Moody that were literally drooling over Michael.
Michael looked uncomfortable as he sat down and looked around, "You guys must not have guys here very often." he said.
"Well, that's true. It also can't hurt that you are hot." Maria said non-chalantly. Michael didn't even know what to say. He had never met a girl blunt enough to say somthing like that out loud. Besides that fact that there was no way in hell that Maria actually thought HE was hot.
"Maybe I should stare back." Michael said with a laugh, changing the subject. He turned around and looked at all of the girls in the eyes. Immediatly the went back to eating.
"Seems to have worked." Maria said taking a bite of her bagel. Michael dove right into his omlete. Maria watched him and laughed to herslef.
"So, what do we have planned today?" Michael asked.
"I don't know, but i plan on actually getting trashed tonight, so i'm not doing a hell of a lot. I'm a Taurus. I'm a homebody. I think i'm just going to chill and watch movies all day." Maria said.
Michael thought that sounded nice. Watching movies with Maria. "Can i join you? I'm a homebody myself." he said.
"Well, of course you are. You're a Cancer." Maria siad. And my love match, she added to herslef. Taurus's and Cancers are love matches but A Taurus, Taurus, Aries, which was what she was, PERFECT love match was a Cancer man. Not that she cared, she wasn't looking for lvoe. She had a feeling that Michael and his hands could be fun to play with though.
Michael and Maria sat in an oncomfortale silence for a little while after that before Michael stepped out on a limb and said, "So, that song you sang last night was really good.
"Oh, thank you." Maria blushed. Michael didn't even know the girl COULD blush. "That song is still kind of sensitive to me." Maria explained.
"I could tell," Michael said trying to get her to open up.
"It was a bad break up. What can i say. I dated this guy, Billy, for a year and a half. Which i realize, now, is way too long. He was my first." maria said looking down. "Well, as all things with relationships go, it didn't work out. The rest is history, as they say." she finished, not making eye contact with Michael.
"What happened?" Michael found himself asking. He couldn't control himself; he wanted to know.
"Hmmm, well lots of things. He cheated on me. He liked to knock me around. I was too 'independent' for him. We just got sick of each other." Maria answered, trying not to elaborate. She didn't know Michael nearly well enough to tell him the whole story.
Michael could tell that Maria didnt want to talk about it, so he dropped it, sort of. "He hit you?" he asked outraged. That was unexceptable. He didn't take a guy hitting a girl for any reason, but especially not Maria. He already felt protective of her.
"Yeah, several times." Was all maria said, and let it go.
"That's not cool." Michael said, but he changed the subject, "So, what movies you have in mind?"
*********
Maria flopped down on her bed and michael sat next to her. The rest of the gang went to hang out at the Market. "I love this movie" he said, as Maria put in Romeo and Juliet by Baz Luhrman. She was suprised, most guys ran for the hills when she even MENTIONED the movie. But Michael was a Cancer.
"Me too," she said. She laid down behind MIchael who was sitting in front of her face. "You think we could switch?" she said looking up at him.
"Oh!" he exclaimed. "I didn't realize...yeah." he said getting behing her and laying down. Maria smiled to herself, well that wasn't that hard. They made themselves comfortable on the bed and she pressed play.
2 movies later, Maria had fallen asleep. IN her sleep, she unconsciously moved closer and closer to the drowsy Michael, until they were spooning on the bed, completely asleep. Maria held tight to Michael, not realizing she was going it, and Michael was holding her tight as well. He smelled his hair in his sleep and smiled
That was how Liz, Isabel, and Courtney found them. "Maria, get your ass up!" Isabel yelled. Maria opened her eyes and grunted.
"What time is it?" she asked. Michael was also comming to, and he looked at his arms wrapped around Maria's waste and untangled himself from her.
"7:00! It's time to put your drinking shorts on!" Courntey siad.
*********
Several games of AssHole and Up the River-Down the River later, Maria was trashed. Michael was a little tipsy, but not completely gone. He was helping her up the stairs when Kyle stopped him. "Hey man, I'm going to sleep in Tess's room tonight." Kyle informed Michael so that he would know where to find him.
"Cool." Michael said.
Liz had gone to Radford College with her friends from across the quad, so Michael was crashing in Maria's room. "Michael, you're so strong." maria said in a fake girly accent. Then she giggled at herself.
Michael laughed as well. Maria was far from girly, that was one of the things he liked about her. All the girls back home were money hungry bitches, Maria didn't care about stuff like that.
When they got to her room. "Michael, spoon with me!" she demanded as she stripped out of her clothes right in front of him. He didn't even know what to do. He wanted to look away and yet he didn't. She had a killer body, and he would be unmale if he said he didn't like looking at it.
Before she took all of her clothes off, Maria pulled pulled out a huge teeshit and hap-hazardly pulled it over hear head. Michael wasn't sure if she should sleep in the same bed with Maria, but h e figured, he had already done it once what was the harm in doing it again.
Maria climbed in her bed, and Michael followed. "Damnit!" Maria exclaimed.
"What?" Michael asked.
"Light. I left the light on." she said with a pout that he found completely adorable.
"I got it." he said getting out of bed and turning the light off. He slipped if jeans off and got back in bed. Maria cuddled into him and lightly caressed his chest.
"You're so fucking hot." he blurted out.
"Your drunk." Michael said with a laugh.
"That may be true, but you are still hot." Maria countered.
"Whatever you say." Michael said sarcastically.
"I dont mean to make you uncomfortable, it's just a fact. You should except it. Quite your job and become a trophy husband." she said before she laughed hysterically at herslef. "Sorry, i'm acting like an asshole. I'm just really drunk." Maria apologized.
"It's ok, i understand. I've been there myself." Michael said rubbing Maria's exposed shoulder. Looking at her in the big tee-shirt was making him hard. She was so hot, but he tried to think about baseball until they both drifted off to sleep.
