| "Thanks again Andie for the ride." "Are you sure you don't want me to go in with you." "No I better do it on my own well see you school." Maria waved as Andie pulled out of the driveway. She had two suitcases and a back pack slung over her shoulder. She looked at the house it seemed sorta perfect this whole town did. Maria walked up to the door and knocked on it. An old woman stepped forward her grey hair in a messy bun with loose strands falling around her head. She had stern but kind face Maria felt a warm feeling spread through her body. The old woman was wiping her floury hands on an apron. "Maria?" "Yeah it's me Grandma Audrey." "Oh my word come in come in." Maria stepped into the house setting her thing on the floor. The house was like a cottage out of one of her favorite story tales. There were pictures hung up everywhere. "My, my child you must be tired after your trip. Come let me show you your room and let you put your things up. Is that all you brought." "Well I wasn't sure how long I was going to be here and really that's all my clothes." Maria said looking at her small suitcases. "Well I'll just have to take you and Jen clothes shopping before school starts. Oh I'm sorry but she's not here right now but she and Jack will be here a supper." "Jack?" "Oh yes that's right. Well Jack is a friend of Jennifer's he will be living here he lives in the other guest room." "Oh are he and Jennifer dating?" "Heavens no he well he likes the same sex." "Oh he's gay." "Um yes he is." Maria started climbing the steps. "How did you get here? I didn't see a cab outside." "Oh well I met a girl named Andie and she drove me here." "Oh she's back is she." "You know who I'm talking about." "Well Maria this is a small town you pretty much know everybody here." "Oh great another Roswell complete with aliens." Maria muttered under her breath. She knew that "Chris" guy was Zan he looked so much like Max. Maria shuddere great relaxation spot mom stick me in a town where evil aliens are on the prowl. "Maria dear are you ok?" Audrey asked with a worried expression. "You seemed a million miles away." "Sorry this is just happening real fast." "I know dear. Well here's your room." Maria followed Audrey into a small room with a twin bed the room was light purple/ blue color. The room was simple yet elegant. She had a small closet and a small wooden mirror that a mirror was attached onto. By the bed was a small nightstand. By the window there was a small plastic desk. "I know it's not much but it's.." "It's great really it is. Thanks a lot." Maria put her suitcase down by her bed and dropped her bookbag on the bed. Maria went over to the dresser and ran her finger along it. Her fingers traced every curve as though memorizing it. "I know we're practically strangers Maria. I mean this is the first time I've met you. I don't deserve the right but I would like to get to know you... be a part of your life." Maria turned around to her grandmother and gave a slight smile. "I'd like that too Audrey." She gave a small smile. "Call me Grams." "Ok grams." "I'll let you rest I'll see you at supper. Then you can meet the rest of the crew." "I'll like that." Maria sat down on the soft cotton bed the days travels wore her out even more than she knew. Grams shut the door and headed down the stairs. Maria drifted off to sleep. ******************************************************* Maria was sleeping when she felt a hand press over her mouth. She shot up and tried to scream but the rough hand held tight muffling her screams. "Now, now blondie shush I ain't gonna hurt ya. I'm gonna to remove my hand you scream you'll be sorry." The hand released itself from Maria's mouth she turned around to see Zan. "What the hell are you doing her." Her voice was a mixture of fear and anger. Zan just smirked. "I'm the one that's gonna ask the questions here." "Who said I was going to answer." Maria said all the fear had left her voice now she was just pissed. "Well aren't you the feisty one." Zan said looking Maria up and down. That made Maria even angrier. "Who the hell do you think you are get out of my room right now." Maria said pointing to the window in which he obviously came in through. "Not a chance." "How the hell did you know I was here any ways." "In case you haven't noticed it's a pretty small town you where easy to find. You should really lock your window no telling who will climb through. Now you answer my questions. How the hell so you know my name." "Lucky guess." Maria said crossing her arms around her chest. "You want to do this the hard way fine." Zan leaned in suddenly Maria noticed how close they where on her bed. She could fell his breath on her neck. All of a sudden she felt being pushed back on the bed his lips forcefully against hers. She tried to get away put he was to strong. TBC |
