Summary: This sequel deals with issues the six were left with
right after my other story ended. What 'other' symptoms might Liz
develop carrying Max's child? What happens when Kyle and Maria
commiserate about their parents' dating? What happens if Kyle
finds out about the alien trio? And, what about the other alien
pods from the same crash as the trio? Can there be more
alien shape shifters out there?
Author's note: If you haven't read my previous story, "Us
Six Against the World", it is recommended before reading
this one. This story begins the day after my other story ended.
It's gonna be another LONG one. ;-)
I Knew I Loved You
By Savage Garden
"There's just no rhyme or reason
Only this sense of completion
And in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I've found my way home
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe
::CHORUS::
Sense of Completion (Part 38)
It was a bright sunny day the following weekend, when the
teens and Sheriff Valenti pulled up to Jordan's ranch.
Jim Valenti had talked in depth to his son and they'd had the
best talk in their lives. He had missed so much of his son's life
while chasing aliens only to find out that the aliens were less
alien and more human than many of the people he had worked with
in his career.
Jordan came up to him and held out his hand. "Welcome. I'm
glad you decided to come with the kids."
The couples gathered around Jordan and the Sheriff, smiling.
Jim Valenti saw remarkable changes in these teens out here. They
were so much more relaxed and happy and content. He had not
realized just how unhappy and uptight the teens had been in the
last year since the shooting at the Crashdown. But out here, they
were all different, at peace. Even his son's face was at peace
and
his eyes un-shadowed up here in these mountains. He took a deep
breath and could almost feel that serenity in the air himself. He
would love to bring Amy here some day.
"She would be welcome. As would you, any time." Jordan
replied.
Jim Valenti looked at Jordan, startled and then grinned.
"Some things are going to be a little difficult to get used
to."
Jim Valenti looked over at Max and Liz. The boy had his arms
around the girl's stomach and was gently rubbing it almost
absently as he stood behind her. Liz Parker was leaning most
contently back against his shoulder, a secret smile on her face.
Maria and Michael were sitting on the porch
steps, Maria between Michael's legs and also leaning back against
him while he played with her hair absently. Isabel and Alex had
their arms around each other and were standing next to Jordan,
just enjoying being back on the ranch.
Then he turned to his son and the young woman who had won Kyle's
heart. She was a brave, intelligent girl, and he couldn't hope
for anyone more loyal and true for his son. And they two were
just snuggling together leaning against the porch with the other
couples.
"What about you kids? Have you told your parents any of
this?" The sheriff asked the teens.
"I...I wouldn't know how." Maria bit her lip and met
the sheriff's eyes, knowing how close he was getting to her mom.
"She would understand better than you think, Maria. Your mom
loves you and only wants you to have a happier life than she's
had." He told her softly.
Maria nodded and exchanged looks with Kyle. It wouldn't be long
before there was a wedding in Roswell.
"What about you Liz? I mean, what have you told them about
your pregnancy?" Jim asked.
"Nothing. I won't show still for almost another six months.
If I told them about the baby now, I'd have to explain why the
pregnancy's going to be two years long. I'm not ready to tell
them I'm pregnant and in love with an alien." She bit her
own lip in worry, for one day she would have to tell them
something. Max held her tighter in understanding, and kissed the
top of her head.
Jim nodded in understanding and looked at Max and Isabel.
"What about your parents? Do they know? I mean, how can you
keep this a secret? Your mom was suspicious after the fire. No
thanks to me." The sheriff admitted under his breath, but
loud enough for them all to hear.
"I know my mom suspects something is different--but I don't
think she has a clue as to what it really is. And Isabel and I
have been discussing what we should do." Max said and
exchanged looks with his sister. He knew what she wanted to do.
Had always wanted to do. Maybe it was time. He really would love
for Jordan to meet his parents. For his parents to meet someone
very important to both Max and Isabel. Someone who they wanted to
spend many weekends with in the future, if they could.
"I'll help you kids in any way I can, if you decide to talk
to them. And if not, I won't say anything. But I think you kids
have really great parents, and I think they will
understand." The sheriff looked around at the teens, then
back to Max and Liz. "Or at least, they will understand most
of it." He cleared his throat. No parent was going to take
well to the fact that their teenagers were young and pregnant. He
didn't envy Liz Parker in whatever she told her parents.
But they were good kids, he knew, and he would help them out
if he could. It was the least he could do after adding to their
last year of hell.
Liz slipped into their bedroom that night at Jordan's, with
her milk and Tabasco sauce. The girls had just had another ice
cream fest in the kitchen and Liz was still smiling over the girl
talk. When she heard the shower running in the private bathroom
she and Max had, she smiled even wider. The milk forgotten, Liz
put it down by the bedside table, drawn to the open bathroom door
allowing the steam to come into their bedroom.
Her urge was sudden and swift, and she giggled wondering if Max
had felt it.
"Liz Parker! You had better be nearby and not still in the
kitchen just talking or thinking about these urges!" Max
growled from behind the curtain.
Liz giggled out loud and Max flung the curtain back. Liz gasped
at the sight before her. There was her Max in all his naked
glory. His well-defined muscular body was sleek with the water
slicing down over him. His feet were planted apart, leading up to
muscular, wet thighs, which led her up further to his obvious
approval of her actions, which answered her question if he had
felt her urge. Then to his lean waist and ribbed stomach, to his
well build chest, arms and neck.
When she finally got to his strong jaw and mouth she saw a playful smile on his sexy lips.
