Liz held Max and Violet’s hand, looking around the familiar place, feeling that her heart would burst with the emotion. Everything was exactly the same, which made the memories come even easier, remembering when she was ‘just’ Liz Parker from Roswell, New Mexico, a small-town girl who worked as a waitress after school, loved Science and was in love with an alien.
“Is this it, mommy?”, Violet wanted to know, not letting go of her hand and looking around akwardly.
Liz smiled. Violet seemed to be a little disappointed.
“Yes, sweetie. This is Roswell”.
“Oh”, Violet said, still looking around.
“It’s better than it seems, really”, Liz said, kneeling down in front of her daughter, biting her lip to keep her from laughing. “Don’t you want to meet your grandparents, and your uncles and aunties, sweetie?”
Violet nodded.
“I do”.
“Let’s go then”, Liz smiled. She looked at Max: “Where do we begin?”
“The Crashdown”, Max suggested.
Liz nodded.
“Right”.
“Where we going, mama?”, Violet wanted to know.
“We’re going to the café grandpa owns, baby. You remember when daddy told you the story, don’t you?”
Volet nodded. Liz smoothed out her hair, smiling, and remembered when Max told Violet that they were going back to Roswell, for her to meet her family... the rest of the family she never dreamed she had.
~ Flashback ~
“Hey little flower. What you doing?”, Max wanted to know, sitting on the bed next to Violet.
“A puzzle”, Violet replied, without looking up.
Max glanced at the puzzle box, picturing a big lake with daisies around. He smiled, thinking how Violet took after him and Liz, loving anything who’d take concentration and never giving up from what she liked.
“Can you interrupt it for just a little second, sweetheart?”, he asked.
Violet looked up and nodded quickly.
“Sure. What is it, daddy?”
Max took her hands in his, sitting close to her.
“Look honey, me and mommy made a kind of... plan, and we want you to know about it. So, wanna listen?”
Violet nodded eagerly.
“You never wondered why you never saw your grandparents or your aunt, sweetie?”
Violet looked at him blankly and shrugged.
“I thought I didn’t have any”.
Max felt a stab of guilt for not having told her anything about the rest of the family. But they faced a so difficult situation that he and Liz thought it would be better not to mix Violet with it yet. After all, now they had a new life. But now it wasn’t the point.
“The truth is that you do
have them, sweetie, only they’re kind of far away from here, you know”.
Violet kept on staring at him.
“How far?”
“They’re in Roswell. In New Mexico”.
Violet’s tiny mouth formed a small O.
“Whoah!”
Max smiled for a moment and went on.
“When... mommy and I were 17, we moved here, because we had some... problems with our parents. And also we were going to college here. But now, we thought in going back and visiting them. We miss them, and we want you to meet the rest of your family. Mommy’s parents, daddy’s parents, and your aunties and uncles”. He figured Michael and Maria, Isabel and Alex and Kyle and Tess would still be together for sure, and maybe they even had already kids of their own, maybe even Violet’s age.
Violet’s amber eyes sparkled.
“Really? I can meet the rest of my family?”
Max laughed.
“Yeah, so that’s what we wanted to tell you, baby. We’re planning in doing a little trip over to New Mexico during summer vacation so you can meet them and they can meet you, what do you say?”
“Great!”, she joyfully jumped up. “I’m really happy, daddy”.
Max smiled at her, ruffling her chocolate hair, and said:
“Just before I let you go on with your puzzle, sweetie, I’m going to tell you more about them. Wanna hear?”
Violet nodded hard.
“Sure!”
“So. Mama’s parents are Jeff and Nancy. Grandpa Jeff has a café called the Crashdown”.
“The Crashdown”, Violet repeated.
“That’s right. That’s where lots of people go to. That’s a really popular place in Roswell, you know. That’s where mommy worked when she was younger, she was a waitress there”.
Violet nodded.
“Then, there’s my parents”, he smiled. “Philiph and Diane. Grandpa Phil is a lawyer”.
“So he can send the bad people to jail?”, Violet asked.
Max laughed at that perspective, but he had to admit that it was someway true.
“That’s right, sweetie. Then, there’s my sister”.
“You have a sister?”, Violet’s eyes glittered. “Like I’m going to have one? Or a brother?”
“Exactly”, Max smiled. “Her name’s Isabel”.
“Isabel”, Violet repeated. “That’s a really pretty name”.
Max smiled again.
“You can call her Iz or Izzy, that’s what lots of people call her. She has this long blonde hair and pretty brown eyes. She used to date a friend of your mom, but I’m sure they’re still together. His name’s Alex. He’s really nice and funny. I bet you two gonna love each other”.
“I think so too”, Violet replied excitedely. “Aunt Izzy and Aunt Alex. Wow. I can’t wait to meet them”.
“Wait until you meet the next bunch”, Max winked. “Then, there’s Aunt Maria, who’s mommy’s best friend, and Uncle Michael, who’s daddy’s best friend. Sometimes they are a little... stubborn, but they’re one of the best people me and mommy ever met. And I bet they’re going to love you too”, Max said, stretching out to tickle Violet.
She giggled and then jerked away.
“And, to finish this up, we have Uncle Kyle and Aunt Tess, who’re also friends of mom and dad. Sometimes they are a little like Uncle Michael and Aunt Maria”, he smiled, “But deep down they’re one of the best people we could ever find”.
Violet smiled delightedely.
“Whoah, daddy. I never thought I would have a family so big. I can’t wait to meet them all”. Then her face darkened. “Daddy... do you think they’re gonna like me? I mean, they never met me... because you and mommy went away. Didn’t they get angry?”
Max couldn’t help but thinking just how smart his daughter already was. He placed a hand on her head, stroking her hair softly.
“We had reasons to, sweetie. Maybe your grandparents were a little angry... but that’s because we and mommy had no choice. About your aunts and uncles... they may have been a little shocked, and sad. But maybe by now, they’re not angry anymore”. He smiled. “And I’m positively sure they’re gonna love you as much as I and mommy love you. I just know it. So don’t worry about that, baby”.
“I’m sure they must miss you and mommy lots”, Violet pointed out.
Max felt a knot on his throat. That sure was true. Just as much as he and Liz missed them all.
He gave Violet a confident smile.
“We miss them too, little flower. But don’t you worry, ‘cause the time in which we gonna meet ‘em is almost coming”, he said, riffling her hair.
~ ends flashback ~
Liz felt a knot forming on her throat as they approached the Crashdown. Everything was just the same. She felt the tears welling up in her eyes, remebering the last time she had set foot there. She tried to clear her vision to see better who was there, and her heart gave a huge twist in her chest. As if they had did it in purpose,
everybody was there. Michael and Maria, Isabel and Alex, Kyle and Tess (
A/N: Oh, by the way, before you guys start throwing rocks at me, Tess is here, alright, but she is a
good girl. Alright? A good girl. No such thing as destinies needing to be fulfilled right here, she loves Max as a best friend, just like the others, and Max is a friend of her too. No shit here. She dates Kyle, they’re in love since the first moment they’ve led eyes on each other, and that’s it. TESS IS A FRIEND OF LIZ TOO, SO THERE’S NO STEALING-YOUR-MAN STUFF IN HERE, AND CONSEQUENTLY, IF TESS IS A GOOD LITTLE GIRL, NO NEED TO KILL ALEX. EVERYBODY’S HAPPY. JUST LIKE
I LIKE.
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
) and her parents. Then she noticed two kids wandering around the tables, a boy and a girl. The tears started to well up again. Would they be anybody’s kids? Would she also be an aunt without knowing it, just like they were?
She looked at Max and noticed that his golden eyes were also shiny. Max squeezed her hand in support.
“Let’s get in”, he whispered. Holding Violet’s hand a little harder, Liz took a deep breath, pushed the door open and got in.
It took a while before everybody could realize the three people who had just gotten inside, because they were so engrossed talking to each other. Nancy was the first one to notice who they really were.
“L-Liz?”, she stuttered, the tears rapidly starting to well up in her blue eyes. “Lizzie, is it really you?”
“Yes, mom”, Liz replied in a chocked voice, the tears now rolling down her face. “Yes, it’s really me”.
“Oh, sweetie”, Nancy ran to her and they hugged each other tight.
Max and Violet watched the scene without interfering, even though everybody else’s eyes were already fixed on them.
After hugging her daughter, Nancy turned to Max, although there was no anger in her eyes. She seemed to be as glad and happy to see him as she was with Liz. They exchanged a long hug too, until she finally spotted little Violet behind Max’s legs. She looked at Liz with an incredulous but undeniably happy smile, and Liz nodded, smiling back. Nancy kneeled down and Violet took a few steps foward. She didn’t need to ask who she was, because she already knew it.
“What’s your name, sweetie?”, Nancy asked softly, her voice shaky with emotion, stroking Violet’s hair.
“Violet”, Violet replied shyly.
“That’s such a pretty name”, she said, looking up at Max and smiling. He smiled back at her.
“You’re Grandma Nancy”, she shyly said.
“Yes I am”, Nancy smiled at her. “How do you know?”
“Mama and daddy told me all about you”, Violet said with her sunny smile, feeling a little more confident.
Nancy gave Liz and Max a grateful look, before she stroked Violet’s hair again and got up.
“Oh my God, you can’t imagine just how much happy you’ve made me. A granddaughter. I have a
granddaughter. And she’s so
beautiful”. She gave a look filled with love over to Violet, who blushed lightly and smiled at her. Slowly, behind Nancy, Jeff appeared. Max’s heart started to race. What was he going to say? Would he try to kill him? Would he start fighting with Liz? Maybe not, after all there were kids standing there... namely his own granddaughter.
“Liz”, was his first word. Looked like he was also trying to choke this own tears. And yes, Max noticed a lot of emotion in his eyes. He also ran to his daughter and hugged her tight.
“God, Liz, you scared us so much”, Jeff said against her shoulder. “We thought you were never going to come back. We thought we had lost you forever. We regreted have forbbiden you to be with Max in the instant we found out you had ran away. Only then we realized he really was the right guy for you”.
Max smiled lightly when Jeff looked at him.
“It’s okay, dad”, Liz smiled between the tears. “I said I forgave you two. I knew you were doing that because you loved me. I just... couldn’t bear being away from Max anymore. That looked like the only solution at the moment”.
Jeff nodded.
“Please forgive us, Liz”. He turned to face Max. “And you too, Max”.
“You’re already forgiven, daddy”, Liz said tenderly, and Max nodded, smiling in approval.
Jeff hugged Liz once more, then Max.
“Thanks for taking care of my daughter”, he whispered. “I guess I always knew you weren’t going to hurt her... only I was scared, and in denial”.
“It’s okay, Mr. Parker”, Max smiled.
Just like Nancy had, Jeff kneeled down in front of Violet, already knowing who she was. He looked up at Liz, strongly touched.
“God, she looks so much like you”.
Liz smiled at him.
“Hi, Violet”, he smiled at the little girl standing in front of Max.
“Hi, grandpa Jeff”, she gave him her irresistible smile.
“Can I hug you?”, Jeff asked behind the tears.
“Sure”, Violet beamed at him, and threw her little arms around Jeff’s neck, who hugged her. Liz and Max watched the scene with a touched look, until Liz saw someone slowly approaching her.
“Lizzie”, she saw Maria standing in front of her, her usually short and then curly hair now longer and completely straight, and her greenish eyes full of tears. “I can’t believe you’re back!”, she said, throwing her arms around her and holding her.
Soon Michael, Kyle, Tess, Alex and Isabel were surrounding them.
“Maxwell man, I swear I could kill you right now”, Michael said, before choking Max with a very tight hug. “We were pratically dying here!! No clue whatsoever of where you two might have gone to, everybody was damn depressed! You should have seen Maria! What happened after all?”
“We had serious problems with Liz’s parents”, Max explained. “They wouldn’t let us be together. So we moved to Connecticut where we were going to college”.
“Connecticut?!”, Michael’s eyes widened. “Geez, Max! That’s damn New York!!”
“I know. I know. We hadn’t any other choice. I’m sorry, Michael”, Max said sincerely. “I really am. But we didn’t see how we could be together if we didn’t run away”.
“I see”, Michael said. “Anyways, I’m damn glad you’re back”.
“So am I”, Max smiled.
“Oh my God, Lizzie”, Maria said with the tears rolling down her cheeks. “I can’t believe this. It’s so amazing to see you again. I found your note when I got back from the prom. I started crying right there”.
“I’m so sorry, Maria”, Liz said sympathetically, feeling her heart shrink with the pain she had given her best friend. “I really am. But we didn’t have any choice. And I just couldn’t leave without at least giving you a reason why. It hurted so much to know I wouldn’t be sure when I was going to see you again”, she said.
“God, me too”, Maria said, hugging her again. “But you’re back. God, you’re back”. She suddenly broke away the hug. “Where are you guys living?”
“Danbury”, Liz said. As she saw the blank look on Maria’s face, she clarified: “Connecticut”.
Maria clapped a hand to her mouth.
“Damn! There’s like, on the other side of the country!”
“I know, but we were going to college there and we just thought it was the right place to start a new life”.
Maria nodded.
“Yeah, I see. I guess I would have done the same thing”.
“But, what about you and Michael? How did things go when Max and I went away?”
Maria giggled, her cheeks starting to warm up.
“Well, they went fine, I guess”.
A knowing smile started to spread on Liz’s lips.
“Oh no they didn’t! C’mon you, I want some details!”
“Well, in the prom, we...”, Maria looked up at Liz, her eyes glittering, biting her lip with excitement.
“Oh God! You guys—”
“We’ve lost our virginity on the prom night”, Maria confessed. She rolled her eyes dreamily. “God, it was perfect”. Then she gave Liz a little shake. “What about you and Max?”
It was Liz’s time to sigh dreamily.
“Well, we got married when we were driving by Texas. In Houston”.
Maria opened her mouth in full surprise.
“Oh no you didn’t!”
“Yes we did”, Liz giggled. “And in our honeymoon... you know”.
“God, that is just so romantic”, Maria sighed. “I wish I could have seen that”.
“You were always there with me”, Liz said. She smiled at Maria. “In my mind”.
“So were you”, Maria smiled. Then she noticed Violet and the tears filled her eyes again. “Oh my God... Liz... is she... is she yours?”
Liz nodded, smiling, and watched Maria kneeling down in front of Violet, her voice shaky with tears.
“Hi”, she said, stroking Violet’s chubby cheek.
“Hi Aunt Maria”, was Violet’s smiling reply.
“She already knows my name!”, Maria exclaimed, with a touched voice. “You told her”, She glanced at Liz, who smiled and nodded. Maria turned again to Violet. “God, you’re so pretty. Just like your mommy”.
“Thank you”, Violet replied shyly, a faint blush coloring up her round cheeks.
“She’s so cute, Liz”, Maria said. “I can’t believe I’m an auntie”.
Liz smiled again, until she spotted a small, blonde-curled girl appearing behind Maria’s legs.
“Maria... oh my God, that little girl... is...?”
Maria beamed.
“My daughter. With Michael”.
“Oh my God, she’s so pretty! So much like you when
you had curls!”
“Yeah, isn’t she”, Maria said, beaming with proud. “A stubborn little head. She’s like her father in every bit of her”.
“What’s her name?”, Liz asked.
“Angel”, Maria said proudly. “Angel Gabrielle Guerin”.
“It’s perfect. Just perfect. Who picked the name?”
“Me”, Maria replied. “I’d let Michael pick the name if it was a boy”.
“Sounds fair”, Liz smiled, looking at the little girl. Her blonde little curls were just like Maria’s, but she had brown eyes, suspicious and strong brown eyes, who seemed, however, capable of giving a warm look sometimes. Just like Michael’s. Her lips were tiny, full and pouty, once again like Maria’s.
“She’s beautiful, Maria”, Liz smiled at Maria. “How old is she?”
“Thanks. She’s 3. She was born in April. April 13th. What about yours?”
“Violet was born in March. March 5th. But your Angel is so cute”.
“So is your little girl”, Maria smiled. “Violet. Such a pretty name. It looks so much like a name
you’d pick”.
Liz smiled.
“Yeah. Violet Marie Evans”.
“A classic”, Maria smiled.
Liz and Maria glanced at their daughters. Violet and Angel had already broken the barrier of silence and were now talking, soon playing around the café, being joined by a small boy, who seemed to be about 3 or 4, their age, with dark brown hair. Liz and Maria smiled, touched with that pretty picture.
“Who’s that little boy?”, Liz asked.
“That’s Avery. Alex and Isabel’s son”, Maria informed, smiling.
“Oh my God. Alex and Isabel... they have a son? Oh God. He’s so... he looks so much like Alex!”
“Yeah, doesn’t he?”, Maria smiled.
“Definitively”, Liz replied. Then she asked:
“But what about you? What do you do now?”
“Well, have you ever heard of Alyssa Ryan?”, Maria said.
“Yeah, we heard her music on the radio several times. Some people call her the new Britney Spears or Mandy Moore or something like that”.
“Yeah, well, I write songs for her”.
Liz’s mouth dropped open.
“Oh my God—Maria, that is so great! She’s a huge star!”
“Yeah... Not exactly the type of artist I would like to write songs for, I think she’s kind of too bubblegummy, but still, I just couldn’t throw this chance away. Things are doing great. Can you believe it?”
“That’s amazing news! Congratulations!”
Maria smiled and said:
“Of course I haven’t given up my dream of becoming a singer. Now things are harder because I’m already married and I have Angel, but I’m still going to try and record a demo or something and start looking for labels when I figure it’s the right time. Right now, Angel is a handful... and I’m quite happy writing songs as a job”.
“You should be! That’s great! And that’s something you love to do, after all!”
Maria smiled and nodded in approval.
“What about you?”, she asked then.
“Well, I’m fulfilling my dream too. Only medical school is way long and sometimes I find it hard, because I still have part-time work
and Violet to look after... but I always manage. I leave Violet with my housekeeper after kindergarten and I can always rely on Max, even though he’s in the same situation I am”.
“That’s so cute”, Maria cooed.
“I know you’d say that. You haven’t changed a bit”, Liz smiled, giving her a playful punch. She saw Tess coming closer to her with a longing smile, and pulled her closer for a hug.
“You cannot believe how much we’ve missed you”, she whispered. “It’s so good to have you back, Liz. What happened?” (
A/N.- Looks weird, I know, but they’re good friends here! I like Tess’s character except for the.... you know, she did with Max, Liz and ALEX in the show. But let’s not go there.
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
).
“Max and I... we had to run away. You know... my parents. They wouldn’t let us date, and we just couldn’t be apart anymore”.
“Yeah”, Tess smiled sympathetically. “But everything’s okay. You guys are back. I just saw your little girl, she’s so cute. I just thought, ‘She can’t be anyone else’s daughter but Max and Liz’s”.
Liz smiled and hugged Tess.
“I’m glad to see you too, Tess. (
A.N.- Oh my God, this is so FREAKY!!!) I’ve missed you guys all, so much”.
Tess smiled at her and said:
“You know, Kyle and I are together”.
“I had noticed that”, Liz replied. “I’m really happy for you guys. I’ve
always said you two would make the cutest couple, even though you and Kyle would insist on playing damn hard to get”.
“Yeah”, Maria added.
Tess giggled.
“Yeah, but we worked things out. I just regret that happened a while after you and Max left...”. A shadow darkened her blue eyes.
“Nevermind that now, Tess”, Liz said softly. “We’re back. We’ve just chosen coming back in Summer so we could spend a couple of months here with you guys. We’ll be leaving when college starts again. So don’t worry".
“Where are you guys going to college?”
“Connecticut”, Maria informed, before Liz could make a sound.
“Gee! That’s way far”, Tess exclaimed.
Liz sighed.
“I know. But... it was the only place we had”.
Tess nodded.
“Yeah, I understand”. Suddenly Maria elbowed her. “What are you waiting for to tell her?”
“Waiting to tell me what?”, Liz asked, her eyes looking from Maria to Tess.
Tess giggled.
“Well... you know... Kyle and I... are living together for a while now... and I... it happened that I—”
“She’s pregnant”, Maria said abruptly, interrupting Tess.
“Oh—my— God... Tess, is that true? You’re... really pregnant?”
“2 months”, she said with a widening smile.
“Oh my God, just like me!”, Liz blurted. Then she remembered she
hadn’t told anyone about her new pregnancy yet.
“You’re pregnant?”, Maria and Tess chorused, almost in shock.
“Yeah, I’m sorry you girls, I had forgotten to tell about that—”
“Are you crazy? That’s wonderful!”, Maria exclaimed. “Pretty much everybody of our gang is about to have another child. You are, Tess is, Isabel is...
“I noticed that now”, Liz smiled, glancing at Isabel’s huge middle.
“And wait until you hear this, they’re expecting twins. They’re not sure yet, but everybody just knows it”, Maria added excitedely.
“Oh my God. That’s amazing. Alex must be overjoyed”.
“You can bet he is”, Tess said.
“... and me and Michael are planning having another one ourselves”, Maria said with a giggle. “So you know. I think we’re doing Roswell’s young age group a favor. Really”.
Tess and Liz laughed.
“So that means your baby is going to be born in February, right?”, Liz asked Tess.
“Yeah, so is yours?”
“Huh-huh”.
“Can I hug this wonderful lady?”
The three of them turned around to see Alex with his arms stretched open in front of
Liz.
“I’ve missed you, Science Girl. I almost had a heart attack when Maria told me about you and Max’s runaway”.
“’Course you can hug me. God, Alex, I’ve missed you too”.
Alex and Liz exchanged a tight hug in front of two touched Tess and Maria.
“Max”.
After hugging Michael, Kyle and Alex, Max saw her sister, her usually called “Ice Princess” sister, in front of him with her eyes shiny with tears. He glanced at her and saw her middle stretching out behind her pink dress.
“Isabel. God I’ve missed you”, Max said, when they hugged each other, but somewhat parted by the size of her middle. “You’re going to have a baby?”
“Yeah”, Isabel smiled and wiped the tears away. Her smiled widened. “I’m 5 months. The doctor says he thinks they’re gonna be twins”.
“Oh Izzy... that’s so great”, Max smiled.
“And I already have a little boy”, Isabel added, pointing the little dark-brown haired boy who was playing with Violet and Angel, with her head.
“Mommy of 3? I never imagined”, Max smiled.
“It’s the best thing in the world. I could never think of it that way”, Isabel smiled.
“I know what it feels like”, Max said, pointing Violet. “I feel the same way with my daughter”.
Isabel glanced at the little girl and smiled.
“She’s adorable, Max. God. I’m an aunt. I can’t believe it”.
“Thanks”, Max said. Then he grinned: “You wait until you see the next one”.
Isabel blinked at him.
“Wha-what do you mean?”
Max gave her a playful smile, and Isabel opened her mouth.
“Oh God, Max... is Liz pregnant?”
“Yep”, Max smiled widely.
“God, that is amazing. Congratulations”, Isabel whispered with a smile.
“Thanks, Izzy”, Max smiled back.
After Max and Liz talked to everybody and shed more tears and smiles, the night had fallen upon them and no-one had even noticed it. The happiness was plain in everybody. It was like everybody had reborned again. Violet was loving everybody, and Max and Liz were extremely glad they had turned back. They had told everybody about Liz’s pregnancy and they really figured that almost everyone was going to have a child soon. Jeff called Max’s parents who at first didn’t believe their son was really back. They hurried inside the Crashdown and as soon as they saw Max, they started crying, at the same time Diane would hug his son. She was, also, delighted and almost incredulous when she found out she had a granddaughter. Max and Liz stayed in Liz’s old place with Violet, and when they fell asleep, they felt, they were home again, just like it had been three years ago.
A/N.- So here it is your chapter done!
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
I think this talk is kind of... I don’t know, dysfunctional. I don’t enterely like it, because I think there’s some rush while writing it (guess why... ^^
![Rolling Eyes :roll:](./images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif)
), but that’s not a problem if
you happen to like it!!
![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
I would like to have written more ‘welcome back’ conversations between every single person but I think that would be too repetitive, and I wanted to post this soon, so I hope it’s not something you regret I haven’t done.
![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
I think there’s only two chapters left to end this fic. Yeah, that’s right.
![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
