~~~~~LIZ~~~~~
My legs and back are stiff from lying there, staring at the ceiling.
I miss Max.
I miss my family.
I miss...magic.
No! NO! Its evil...look what it did to everybody. I just want to be normal. I want to be just Liz....
but I will never be "Just Liz"
I will always be "Liz, the Charmed one"
I wrap my arms around myself, wishing that Max knew how much I missed him.
I bet he thought I hate him or something.
"Oh Max" I say quietly.
I move outside and sit on a bench under a streetlight.
Im surprised Maria or Tess havent come demanding my return. Or to come and shout at me...
But they havent.
Maybe its because there glad Im gone.
Maris said she didnt even like me...

You know what I hate more than magic?
Myself

*Tess*

I roll over and stare up at the ceiling in confusion. I must have fallen asleep. The house is fairly quiet. "Where is everyone?" I mumble and reach out with my mind.

"Liz, Ria. Where are you?" I call to them.

~~~~~LIZ~~~~~
"Liz, Ria. Where are you?"
I feel tears roll down my cheeks...Tess doesn't know.
What am I meant to say? "Hey Tess, Ive left!"
I don't think so.
"Tess...I...I just need to be alone right now ok."

*Tess*

I raise an eyebrow in confusion.

"Liz. What's going on?" I ask

~~~~LIZ~~~~~
"Liz. What's going on?"
I try to hold back a sob. I don't know what to say....
"I...Tess...I...I need some time ok. Im here....if you two...need me...but I...I wont be in the mansion" I tell her hopeing that would get what Im trying to say across.

*Tess*

I sit up fast, nearly crying out when my body protests from my battle earlier. Okay Liz...I know you....need time....you know how to get ahold of me." I say

After that I collapse back onto the bed tears streaming down my cheeks

~~~~~LIZ~~~~~
"Okay Liz...I know you....need time....you know how to get ahold of me."
I wrap my arms tigheter around myself. I know I need time...but I don't want to be alone anymore.
I sob once more. God why do I hurt everyone around me.
Maybe I deserve to be alone.

~Max~

I get up from my spot on Maria's bed and head towards Tess's room hoping to find her there. I knock softly on the door before walking in.

"Tess". I say concerned when I see her on her bed tears fallling down her face one by one and falling onto her pillow making small wet spots.

*Tess*

I sit up and look at Max in surprise, the tears still making their way down my cheeks. "Hi Max." I whisper softly, through my sobs

~Max~

I was going to ask her to contact Liz for me because Liz has never allowed me to get to close so a connection never formed between us but I can't not when she is......like this. I should sense these things...when they are upset...I am their protector....but all I could think about was her...Liz...she is weakness.

Pushing my own greif aside I ask "What happened? Is everything ok?"
