part 1

Maria deluca looked out the window watching michael guerin taking the trash out to the curve
She hated michael guerin with a passion. But sometimes she felt sorry for him because of his living conditions. His mother died in a terrible accident and His father hated him. Michael looked over and saw Maria watching him. "god doesn't she have anything better to do" Michael said out loud as he went back into the house

The next day

Michael strolled into history class late. He sat in usual seat in the back of the classroom. Maria sneered at him, and she noticed his black eye. Everyone was staring at him.
"Class today I will be passing out your partner assignments" Mr flagger their history teacher said.
"At the top you will see the last name of your partner" Mr flagger said laying the assignment packets on each students desk.
Maria Looked at the top of her packet of papers and noticed the name. She instantly raised her hand.

"yes Maria what is it?" Mr flagger asked.
"Mr flagger I'm sorry but this just wont do. I cant work with michael guerin.
Michael smiled and laughed. Mr Flagger Didn't like the fact Maria was displease with her partner.
"Well maybe you can actually influence Guerin here to do some work for once and no changing partners."


Maria laid her head down on the desk in frustration. Michael came over and sat across from her in the empty desk.

"looks like were going to be partners sweet hart" michael said smiling.
"great I am being punished!" Maria said practically yelling.
"Same here sweet heart, Look you can just do the stupid assignment and get a grade for it" michael said back to her
"Michael it says right here both partners must work together and both must turn in work! And don't call me sweet heart again! And also I am not doing all the work while you be your usual slacking lazy self!" Maria yelled.

Michael laughed and replied "whatever! take a chill pill!" Michael didn't realize how cute maria got when she was pissed or upset about something
"god! Did I just think she was cute!' michael thought. Maria's day couldn't get any worse. She wanted to punch that smirk off Michael's face.
“your loving this aren't you?” maria asked.
“ Its funny making you mad. That look and face you make is priceless” michael laughed.
“ Sometimes I think you were born just to piss me off!” maria said as she started going through the packet and looking at the assignment.
“Lets just meet after school or something so we can get this done and over with. Because I hate being your partner as much you hate being my partner” Michael said he slouched back in the desk. Mr flagger started explaining the assignment and what they had to do. michael wasn't even paying attention. He sat there playing with his pencil. Maria Quickly punched him in the shoulder.
“Ouch!” he said out loud. Everyone in the class started laughing and staring.
“is there a problem maria and michael?” Mr flagger asked looking at them and giving them that look all teachers get.
“yeah there is, michael is a slacker and I cant believe you made me his partner!” Maria said with a smug look on his face.
“I'm sorry you feel that way. Why don't you two go out and the hall and work your problems out so you don't disrupt the class any further”
“Great! I'm getting kicked out of the class?” Maria said out loud. michael laughed.
“ Mr flagger , I would be glad to leave your class and maria would love to leave your class to” Michael said getting up and pulling maria out of the classroom by the arm.
“No! I come to school to learn!” Maria yelled as michael pulled her out into the hall.

“you need to lighten up a little Deluca” Michael said facing her.
“ I need to lighten up? I dont think so! God! This day cant even get any worse!” maria said throwing her bag on the floor and leaning against the wall with her arms crossed.
“ The day sucks for <a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="me%20too" onmouseover="window.status='me too'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">me too</a>! Ok so just deal with it!” Michael yelled.
“ I hate you! Ever since you moved in the house across the street from me My life has been hell!”
“ Its not my fault that your father left you and your mom!” maria looked at him as her eyes started to tear up.
“how do you know about that?” Maria demanded.
“ Because I heard your mother talking about it. And I know what it feels like to loose someone you truly love”
“you don't know anything Michael”
“ Look lets not talk about this anymore. Lets just start on this stupid assignment.” Michael said as he walked down the hall. Maria grabbed he bag and followed him down the hall.
“where are you going?”maria asked as they walked out of the school.
“leaving school” Michael said.
“We cant skip school”Maria said.
“ We can and we will. Do you gotta a car?” michael asked.
“yeah but there is no way in hell your getting in it!”
“ Maria Just shutup and give me th keys”
“No!” maria yelled.
“Fine! then we can walk back!”
“Do you know how far it is to walk!”
“ Then give me the dam keys!” Michael said frustrated.
“I cant believe I am skipping school with your lame ass”Maria said as she handed him the keys to the jeda.

They were both quiet as they drove. Maria wasn't sure where they were going.
“Where are we going?” maria asked.
“Going to see where My father is”michael said.
“why?” maria asked.
“so when we work on this assignment together at my house he isn't there when your there” michael said with a serious tone.
“Is he the reason why you got the black eye?” maria asked.
“Dam! Girl you asked too many questions. Stop asking questions! I fell and hit my eye on a door nobb” Michael said quickly trying to come up an excuse.
“yeah right” Maria said. They pulled to a bar and Michael noticed his fathers car in front of the bar.
“Good” Michael said as they spend off.
“ Are you having family problems?”maria asked.
“ thats a question and I specifically said no questions”Michael said.
“Ok sorry, you don't have to answer. But I thought I would ask.”
“ I don't talk about my family” Michael said.
“I understand”maria said softly. At that moment maria thought maybe she was getting through to michael. Maria didn't say anything after that. She waite until michael was ready to talk.

“Your waiting for to talk arent you? you want to know how I feel, what its like to live without my mother” michael said flat out.
“No I'm not”Maria said.
“ Its Just like how you feel without your father. I see the pain in your eyes sometimes.” michael said as they pulled up in maria's driveway.
“you do?” Maria said surprised.
“ Yeah and sometimes I...” Michael stopped what he was saying.
“ sometimes you what?” Maria asked wanting him to continue.
“ Nothing never mind, just meet me at the crashdown later just in case my pops decides to show up”michael said as he jumped out of the car and went across the street. Maria wanted to run after him and ask him what he was going to say. But instead she went into the house. there was way she was going back to school now. What michael had said was lingering in the back of her mind.

Michael went up to his room . He Lingered in the hall way for a moment having flash backs. He was remembering the day before his mother died. It was his birthday and she came into his room and surprised him with a birthday breakfast. Even though he was adopted her loved his parents more then anything.

Ever since the accident his life hasn't been the same. His father wouldn't even look at him he would just drink his sorrows away. Michael now doesn't have anyone. Well Except for his long time best friends Isabel and max evans but they didn't count. they were both living to busy living their lives to care about him.

Michael slammed his fist into the wall with anger. It felt better to take his anger out on something.

That night -

Michael laid in his bed staring at the ceiling. He knew sooner or later he would have to meet Maria at the crashdown. He heard his father's drunken rage going on downstairs. michael went down stairs and seen his father throwing things in a fit of rage.
“What the hell are you doing?” Michael yelled at his father.
“ Go away!” His father yelled.
“ No” Michael said standing his ground.
“ Boy! I don't want you here! you aren't even mine! Every time i look at you I see her!” His father yelled. Michael started to step back knowing that his father was capable of anything in this drunken rage. he learned that from earlier in the day with the black eye. His father came after him and pushed him against the wall. He started Punching michael in the stomach. michael fell to the floor in pain.

Michael laid there for a moment and then he quickly got up and ran for the door. He ran to maria's house. He knew her mother would get worried if he came to the front door.
'god i hope she is home' michael thought as he went to the back of the house where maria's room was. He looked in the window and saw Maria laying on the bed studying her assignment packet and listening to music. Michael tapped on the window. Maria was startled as she looked over at the window and saw michael.
“Michael?” She said as she opened the window.
“maria help me” he said as he crawled through the window. He was holding his stomach, and maria knew something was wrong.
“what happened?” She said trying to calm him down.
“ I need a place to stay”michael said through his pain.
“Oh god you cant stay here. my mom will kill me!” maria said frantically trying to figure out what to do.
“Please maria” Michael said grabbing her by the arm.
“ Ok, I know your in trouble and I'm here for you” Maria said hugging him tightly. Michael took her in his embrace. This was a side of Maria Michael had never seen, and it was a side of michael Maria had never seen. Behind that tough slacking macho guy was a soft hearted guy. A guy that Maria could get use to.
“Everything is going to be ok” Maria whispered in his ears. Michael was shaking. Maria tried calming him down.
“Don't leave me” Michael said softly.
“I'm not going anywhere” Maria said softly. Maria didn't really know what to do. She Pulled down the covers on her bed and Made Michael get in.
“you need to get some sleep” she said Motioning him towards the bed. michael looked at her surprised that she was offering him to sleep in her bed. Michael crawled in the bed and curled up under the sheets. Maria made a place On the floor for her to sleep on.

Before they both knew it they were asleep. Michael suddenly started tossing. Maria heard the sheets rustling. She got up and saw michael michael tossing and turning. Suddenly he shot up out of bed and started yelling and screaming.
“Ssssh! My mother is in the next room”Maria said as she calmed him down. She sat with him on the bed.
“Maria” Michael said embracing her.
“Its ok Michael you just had a bad dream” maria said softly.
“Stay with me” Michael said through a scared and shaking voice.
“Ok” Maria laid down next to him calming him to sleep. maria Fell asleep in his arms.

Part 2 -
Maria Slowly stirred in bed. She turned and found michael was gone. She looked over at the clock and realized she was late for work. She quickly got up and got dressed and ran downstairs. She kissed her mother by and headed out the door.
when she got to the crashdown Liz parker was giving her that look.
“Maria do you realize what time it is?” Liz said as she carried orders of food to the tables.
“I'm so sorry Liz something happened last night” Maria said taking Liz by the arm and pulling her into the back of the crashdown.

“Maria whats going on?” Liz asked.
“you know Michael geurin that lives across the street from me?” Maria asked liz.
“What about him, he's max's best friend right?” Liz asked.
“yeah and you know how we hate each other?”
“yeah...and..” Liz said.
“Well last night he spent the night with me in my room” Maria said.liz looked at her shocked.
“Maria! You slept with him!” Liz said out loud. Maria tried to get Liz to be quiet.
“No I didnt , his father beat the crap out of him last night, and he stayed at my house”
“Oh god maria”
“Yeah I know and when I got up this morning he was gone.”
“Ok we will talk about this later, we have mass of customers here today” liz said as they went out into the main part of the crashdown. Maria looked up and saw Michael coming through the doors. He looked at her with those soulful brown eyes. He sat in the back booth. Maria went up to him.
“Hey” She said softly.
“Hey” Michael said nervously.
“Where did you go this morning” Maria asked.
“I dont want to talk about last night”Michael said. Maria sat across From him in the booth. She looked over and saw the crowd of people coming in. She ignored them.

“Michael, I want to talk about it. God, This is the first time we've ever actually been in the same room without arguing or insulting each other” Maria said smiling.
“ I know, But it hurts to talk about what happened last night. Max is meeting me here later”
“Ok, I get off around 3 so if your still here were going to talk” maria putting her hand on top of his. Michael looked into her eyes. 'god she is so beautiful' he thought wanting to kiss her right then and there. Liz came over to their table.
“Maria “ Liz said softly giving her that tone.
“right I'll get right to work” Maria said as she started bussing tables. michael watched her closely. Was he falling for maria deluca? he cant be. He shrugged the thought off as max came into the crashdown and sat across from him.
“hey whats going on” Max said noticing his black eye . He knew michael's father beat the crap out of him.
“ He beat the crap out of me last night” Michael said softly.
“Are you ok?” Max asked.
“ no I'm not, Its been two years since my mother died. I dont want to live like this. Next time this happens I mighht you know...and If I do were all in trouble” Michael said.
“you have to control it, Like me and isabel do. We cant let anyone know about what we can do” max said.
“ I'm telling you max if he comes at me again I will end up killing him. I controlled it last night, but who knows what will happen next time” Michael replied.
“you cant go A- wall on us now michael. I still remember when your mother died. You put a hole in the wall the size of texas.You know how hard it was to explain the huge whole in bedroom wall to my parents?” max said smiling.
“ I know, I had to release all the energy from that day. But I think I was able to control myself because I was with maria last night” Michael said flat out. Max's jaw dropped.
“ Maria? As in Maria deluca, Liz parkers best friend?” Max asked in shock.
“ yes, and no we didnt do anything together we just slept thats all!” Michael knowing that Max was assuming they slept together.
“thats a shocker,you two hate each other” max replied laughing. Remembering a few years ago when Maria and michael got in the biggest arguement ever.

Two years before-

Maria sneered at michael, she wanted to dump the chocolate milkshake on his head and rub all in his hair. She slammed the shake down on the table.
“What your deal?” He asked.
“you thats my deal! You know you are the rudest and most annoying person I know!” maria said as she walked away.
“Yeah Well your not so great yourself” michael yelled back. max watched Maria and michael go at it.
“Excuse me? I am the nicest person you know!” maria yelled back.
“Your service stinks” michael said laughing.
“yeah well take this you jackass” maria took the milkshake and threw it in his face.

Back to the present -

“maxwell tell me what to do? Your so good at helping me with things like this” Michael replied
“I'm not an expert” Max said glancing over at Liz.
“So how are things going with you and Liz?” Michael asked.
“there is no me and Liz, michael were just friends. But I think there is something going on between you and maria” Michael laughed.
“No way in hell! I had no one else to turn to last night. She was my only option” Michael said.
“ Then why does she keep looking over here and smiling”
“Dont ask me” michael replied.
“ If there is something going on between you and her you cant tell her anything about us” max said with a serious tone.
“I know, do you think I am stupid or something maxwell”
“No I Just want to makesure you dont do anything stupid. Besides you know how maria is, she will freak out”
“ Maxwell , stop worrying everything will be ok. Our secret is safe, I wont blow it I promise”
“thats a promise you must keep Michael” max said.

Part 3

Maria watched michael anad max closely. They were acting way to weird, and way to secretive. Maria decided to bring max and michael their favorite drinks. She filled two alien glasses up with cherry coke and went over to Michael and max's table.

“Two cherry cokes on the house” maria said smiling.

“Thanks” Max said. maria stood there for a moment.

“Maria? Is there something else you want?” Michael asked.

“No Not really... I ..Guess I'll go” Maria Felt like an idiot just now.

“See what I mean michael. She is going to fnd out one way or another. Either your going to slip or your going to come right out and tell her” Max said.

“Maxwell, Dont sweat” Michael said.

“i cant help but sweat michael,” Max said fratically.

“Yeah he's been pacing back and fourth in front of your car waiting for you to get off work” Maria Went outside to her car and saw Michael leaning against her car.

“What are you doing?”Maria asked. ok that was a dumb question to ask.
“What does it look like I am doing? I'm standing here waiting for you.” michael replied. He looked into her eyes and felt this spark. He felt this energy coming from him. He took a deep breath trying to control himself.

“Do you need a ride?” Maria asked unlocking the door.

“Yeah, But I dont want to go home”

“I understand, you can stay at My house until my mom gets home”

“Yeah well Maybe I'll spend the night at max's tonight”

“Ok I havent told anyone, so does this mean we are .... you know ....friends?”Maria questionally.

“Keep that on the down low too” Michael replied.

“Stop it!” She yelled.

“Dont you ever have fun?” michael replied.

“I have fun when your not around” Maria replied as she continued to write in her notebook. Michael stood over her shoulder and read what she was writing.

“Are those lyrics?” Michael asked. maria closed the notebook shut.

“Thats none of your business”

“Ohh so your not studying then?”

“Sorry I have to do something”michael replied.

“Ok well how about we watch a movie or something?” Maria said as she went to her so called dvd collection.
“No sappy love stories” Michael replied.

“Well thats all I have” Maria said going through her collection.

“I'm not sitting through a chic flick with you”michael sternly siad.

“Ok then we will watch regular tv” Maria plopped down on the couch next to him with the remote. Michael took the remote from her.

“hockey is on” he said flipping through the tv to find the sports channel.

“and who said I wanted to watch Hockey!” maria yelled as she grabbed the remote. The next thing they both knew they were fighting over the remote.

“Give it to me!” Maria yelled.

“Only if you say please” Maria Popped him in the head with a couch pillow.

Michael had maria Pinned down on the couch. maria couldnt stop laughing. They looked into each others eyes and realized the Postion they were in.

Next day at school -

Maria looked over at the empty Seat where michael guerin sits in history. She was starting to get worried. Things were starting to invade her brain. what if his father hurt him? what if he was...dead? She shook it off. And tried to pay attention. The door opened to and michael came strolling in. He immediately locked eyes with maria.

“mr. Guerin nice to have you join us” the history teacher said as Michael took his seat. maria Tried not to look at him, but she glanced over and smiled at him.

When class was finally over Maria caught up with michael in the hall.

“hey” She said softly.

God he couldnt stop thinking about that kiss and what he saw when he kissed her. he couldnt get those red sneakers out of his head and that cute little puppy dog licking the little girls face. He wa guessing that the little girl was maria.

“Can we talk?”Michael asked.

“Yeah sure” Maria motioned for Liz to leave.

“Thats my cue to be gone” Liz said as she went to the back of the crashdown.

Part 6-

Maria Sat in her room crying. She heard a soft tap on her window. She looked over and saw Michael. ' thank god my mom is out on a date' maria thought as she opened the window and let him in.

“What are you doing here?” Maria asked as she wiped her tears away.

“I couldnt sleep” Michael said looking into her eyes and seeing the tears.

“ I'm really not up for company” Maria said as she wiped the tears away that were forming again.

“ wy are you crying?” Michael asked as he touched her face.

“ Dont worry about me I'm fine I just had a really bad day” Maria said sniffing. Michael knew something was up. But he didnt push at it.

“Can I make it better?” Michael said softly.

“ What can you do to make it better?” Maria asked.

“ Just being here is doing alot” Maria said as she sat on the edge of the bed. michael sat down next to her and wrapped his arms around her.

“What ever it is thats bothering you can always talk to me about it when your ready to talk” He said taking in the scent of her hair.

“Thanks” maria said softly.

“You cant Our lives Depend on it” Max replied as he seen Liz parker walk by. Liz gave him a weird look.

“whats going on with you two?” Michael asked curiously.

“nothing” Max replied. Isabel came up to max and michael and sat down. She glarred at her brother. Isabel came up to the table and threw a newspaper in front of max.

“Something is up brother” Isabel pointing to the main headline.

“Body found with mysterious glowing handprint?” Max said curiously reading.

“yeah and it was an FBI agent too. Someone is out just like us looking for us.” Isabel said concerned.

“ great” Michael said as he glanced up and saw maria and Liz across the Lunch area eating.

“ we have to look into this” Isabel said.

“No we have to leave it alone, act normal. If we do that then we wont be noticed. That means we cant tell anyone about us” Max said looking up at michael.

“ Dont look at me like that Maxwell. I get it no telling. But I have a feeling you'll be the first one to screw up and tell little ms Liz parker everything” Michael said as he walked away.

“ I dont care what you say max I am looking into this” isabel said as she took the paper from him.

Maria saw Michael towards her and Liz. Liz walked away and went up to max and sat down.

“hey” Michael said softly.

“Hey” maria said back as they walked.

“Ok I understand completely” Michael said.

“ I wanted to talk to you about those flashes”maria said abruptly.

“ok” Michael replied.

“ How is it possible that you can see something you dont know anything abou? And where is it coming from?” Maria asked.

“maria I cant explain it.” Michael said.He really coouldnt explain it.If he did that mean he would have to Give away who and what he really was. And that was a no no to max. Max would kill him.

“It has to come from somewhere and it only happened when we kissed” Maria replied.

“ maybe its some kind of weird connection we have” michael said.

“I dont know, its been kind of driving me nuts” Maria said. Michael wanted to tell her so bad. He wanted to show her that he was different from everyone else.

“Dont let it” Michael said.

“ I cant help it! there is no way you could of known about those shoes and that dog! I mean we didnt know each other then” Maria said.


“maria what will it take for you to stop worrying about this! God! First max now you! And Then isabel and the whole thing in the paper! I have enough on my plate to worry about!” Michael yelled. Maria looked at him confused.

“Well..You dont think I am stresed out too! We havent done anything for this stupid project ! And then we kiss and now everything is thrown off balance! My father shows up in town! My mother is dating guys I wouldnt even allow myself to date! God! And you think I dont have problems!” maria yelled at him. Energy was flowing from Michael's finger tips. He grabbed Maria by the arm and pulled her into the eraser room.

“What the hell are you doing!” Maria yelled.

“just shutup!” Michael said as he pulled her into her arms and kissed her passionetly. The Kiss was ten times better then the first. It felt like they were in the eraser room for hours. With every touch Maria felt like she was floating through outer space. Suddenly the door opened And they found theirselves face to face with the principle.
