| �I can�t believe my Mom is going to be here in a few hours.� Maria whispered in Michael�s ear as he kissed his way down neck to her shoulders. They had been stealing these moments together ever since they moved into their new homes. As much as they missed each other, it was turning into a fun game of finding places to sneak off together to mess around. Maria couldn�t believe that she was actually in the wood shed, half naked up against a pile of wood as Michael was attacking her neck and his fingers were sliding in and out of her slick passage. Maria bit down on her bottom lip to keep from screaming and drawing attention to themselves as she came while Michael rubbed her clit in a circular motion. �Oh God baby, you are so hot.� Michael groaned as he slowly dropped to his knees and helped her to rest her body against the pile as he lifted her and placed her legs over his shoulder and her @#%$ was right in front of his face. He rubbed his hands over her legs before he settled them on her ass to help support her weight. He moaned as her lower lips parted and her slit came into view. With her softly whimpering her desire Michael quickly dipped his head and laved his tongue along her p-ussy, before he targeted her most precious jewel and ran his tongue back and forth over her tender bud making her gasp and buck her hips against his face. Michael dragged his tongue back to her opening and slowly impaled her with it, sliding it in and out at a deliberately slow pace as he nuzzled his nose against her c-lit. He loved to hear her beg and plead as she squirmed from they way he was pleasuring her. He could hear her pant and could feel her walls surrounding his tongue slowly begin to flutter as her next orgasm was on the horizon. He slid one of his hands up and around to rest on her bottom belly before slipping it down and began to message her clit in a slow circular motion. �Please Michael, please make me cum.� She begged so softly, that he thought for a second he had imagined she had said it until he glanced up and saw her face. Her eyes were closed and her mouth was open forming a silent �O� as she panted and rubbed her hands over her own breast. He never could denied her anything so he slowly slid his tongue out and lifted her shaking limbs off of his shoulders before he quickly wrapped his arms around her and carried her over to an old tarp that was covering the ground and placed her on it. Quickly he shed his clothes and grinned as he watched her trying to bring herself to orgasm as she ran her nimble fingers over her clit. �Don�t baby, I�m going to take care of you.� Michael said as he pulled her hand away and laid down on top of her. He moaned as he felt her spread her legs in invitation as he settled himself between them, his c-ock rubbing against her wet curls. He grunted when he felt her reach down and grasped his rod in her hand, guiding it to her opening. He stopped breathing as he began to enter her as he rested his head on her shoulder, enjoying the feeling of her walls welcoming him as they stretched to accommodate his huge c-ock. The combination of being inside and her wrapping her legs around his hips urging him deeper caused him to begin to pump in and out of her in a frenzy. His c-ock bumping up against her g-spot over and over again causing her to bite down on his shoulder to keep from screaming. He felt his balls starting to tighten and knew it wouldn�t take much more to send him over. He lifted his head and kissed Maria�s cheek before he moved his hand between their bodies and began to work her clit. He was rewarded when he felt her walls tighten around his shaft and squeezing it. With a final twist he felt her tighten her grip on his body as she came, bring him with her as he felt his seed shooting out of him and marking her as his and his alone. Both were panting and holding on to each other as their orgasm washed over them. Michael rolled them to the side and claimed Maria�s lips for a searing kiss. After they broke and he was rested his against her shoulder did he start to laugh causing her to ask. �What�s so funny?� �Do you realize that we just had incredible sex and that you manage to keep you sweater and coat on during it.� He said as he continued to laugh as he watched her looked down and take in his naked body against her half naked one. �Don�t laugh, it�s cold out. You should get dress before you get sick.� She teased as she gently pushed herself away and slid off his c-ock before she stood up and retrieved her jeans and boots. Michael laid back and watched as she got dressed. Smirking as she blushed as he trailed his hand down his body and gathered their combined juices off of his semi-hard c-ock and brought his coated fingers up to his lips and sucked them into his mouth. �Taste good.� He told her after he slipped the fingers out. �Your so nasty.� She teased as she tossed him his clothes. �I�m going up to the inn and get Emma ready to meet her grandmother. You remember to behave yourself.� She instructed as she snuck out the door, making sure nobody saw her. She was halfway back to the inn when she heard the wolf whistle, spinning on her heals she saw a smiling Karen who was shaking her finger back and forth and making a tsk tsk sound. �I know whooo you were doinggg.� She called out in a singsong voice. �Karen!� Maria hissed. Karen just laughed and jogged up to her, throwing her arms around her and kissing her on the cheek. �So you and Michael have discovered the wood shed.� She stated teasingly. �Your not going to tell Ruthie or Jeanie are you?� Maria asked. �Nah, you guys can bonk away where ever you want as far as I�m concerned. Peter and I think it�s silly that they insisted you two live in separate homes until you get married for real but they�re all from the old school.� She said as they started back to the inn together. Maria had to smile, both Peter and Karen had come by after Ruthie and the sheriff left and the four had talked all night long. Both couldn�t apologize enough for the way they reacted at first and Michael and Maria kept on telling them it was ok. Maria had them all in stitches as she recounted the way she reacted when Liz told her. �Thanks, you know as much as I hate being away from him I think this will be a good thing. It really means a lot to Michael that the sheriff wants to adopt him and make him his son. He never had a father to call his own before.� Maria explained to her friend. �Yeah well don�t let the sheriff fool you, this means a lot to him too. He really thinks of Michael like a son and he has been itching to call that baby of yours his granddaughter.� �Karen you should see them together, there so cute. The sheriff took him shopping yesterday for ice fishing equipment. There going to go next weekend for a little bonding time. Michael was like a little kid at Christmas when he got back here to show me what they got.� �Well, the sheriff never did marry and I have to say I always thought he would make a great dad. I think that�s why he took Peter and Michael under his wings, they were the sons he never had. That is until now. So when do they think they can make it official?� Karen asked as she held opened the back door into the kitchen for both woman to enter. �Actually the sheriff has been able to push the paper work and he has some friends in the court. They think they can have it finalized in a couple of weeks.� Maria told her as she waived to Jeanie and went over to the bassinet and picked up Emma. �She didn�t cause you any trouble, did she?� Maria asked the older woman as she kissed her daughter on the cheek. �Nope. I think she finds me boring, she slept most of the time.� Jeanie said as she smiled as she watched Maria and her little girl together. Jeanie could never stay upset with either of her or Michael, especially since he had saved her grandson�s life. After the initial shock of finding out everything she realized that none of it really mattered, that they were still the young couple who had captured her heart. She was happy that the sheriff and Ruthie had decided to stand up for them. No one should have to live their lives under so many lies, especially when the didn�t seem to need to. Jeanie knew why they continued to live with the lies, they feared being sent home and not because of the FBI or any other government agency but because of what would happen within their group. It was obvious that both teens had decided to live the lie because they realized that their family was their first priority and that was a decision the rest agreed with. It was Peter who finally suggested that since Michael had felt his brother but that his brother left that they must have felt the same way and that the lie wasn�t necessary any longer. Then it became a discussion of the practicalities of them staying here and lifting the burden of continuing to lie. The main problem was no matter how mature they acted, they were still minors and they needed to figure out a way to make it possible that they could stay on the island. Jeanie and the other had to force themselves not to chuckle when the sheriff immediately said that he could adopt Michael. Everyone knew how close the older man had become to the teen and that he already thought of him as his son and now he could make it official. Maria situation was the tricky one but Karen was the one to point out that if it was never reported that Maria was a missing child that she must be involved with the others. After must discussion they were able to come up with the idea of contacting her mother and arranging for her to come here and possible signing guardianship papers and allowing Maria to stay here. Ruthie automatically volunteered to become the girls guardian. Of course the big debate was the living arrangements. Peter and Karen both said it was ridicules to have them move out of the cottage, but the older adults just couldn�t help but feel that just because they had been living together for over a year didn�t make it right. Peter and Karen just shook their heads, it was a losing argument. You couldn�t change the way the older adults thought. Jeanie was riding the fence but her decision was quickly made when she heard her own 17 year old son saying that he thought that what they had done was cool. Her mother�s instinct kicked in and she wanted to show him that living on your own when you�re a teenager was not cool. Now a week later both were living in their new homes and getting ready for Amy Deluca�s visit. She grinned as she watched Maria cooing to her daughter that she was going to meet her grandma today. �What time is your mother due?� Karen asked as she went over and picked up her own sleeping child from his playpen. �In an hour or so. The sheriff is going to pick her up.� Maria told her as she damped a towel and wiped her daughters face before she began to play with the lace on her blue velvet dressed. �Give that child to me and stop fussing with her dress. She looks like and angel. Why don�t you and Karen run upstairs and she can help you finish getting ready and I will give Emma a bottle and don�t worry I won�t get any on her.� Jeanie ordered as she waved the them through the door. ************************************ An hour later Maria, Michael, Jeanie, Karen, Peter, Ruthie and the kids were all in the sitting room of the inn waiting for the sheriff and Amy. Maria jumped up when she heard the front door opened and shouted �MOM� when she saw her walking into the room. Both woman ran and hugged each other tightly, afraid that if they let go of the other they would disappear. The other watched with smiles on their faces and the women couldn�t help but to cry as they heard the reunited mother and daughter sobbing and telling the other how much they love the other and how much they missed each other. Michael stood still, his daughter in his arms not sure what he should do. Maria�s mother, his baby�s grandmother and his soon to be official mother-in-law. Oh @#%$, this is the same woman who chained herself to some building in a crusade to keep it from being torn down. What the Hell has he gotten himself into, this woman will chew him up and spit him out. He watched wirily as they finally parted and heard Amy asking where her grandbaby was. Taking a deep gulp Michael stepped forward and said. �Emma this is you Grandmother, can you say hello.� He urged her gently as he took her little hand and waved it. �Oh God, she has your nose Maria.� Amy exclaimed as she rushed over and gather the baby in her arms placing kisses on her chubby cheeks and gushing about how beautiful she is. Maria walked over and stood next to Michael, taking his hand in hers before she cleared her throat to get her mother�s attention. �Mom, there are some people I would like to you meet. You already met the sheriff and over here is Ruthie Lawrence, this is the woman I spoke to you about on the phone. Over there is Jeanie Spencer and her son Peter and his wife Karen and grandson Josh and her other son Marc.� Maria said as she pointed to all of her friends as she introduced them. �And this is Michael.� She whispered shyly as she rubbed her hand up and down his forearm, trying to reassure him that this was going to be alright. Amy cradled the baby in her arms and looked up at the boy who had taken her daughter with him on this adventure. A part of her hated him and his brother and sister, they were the reason her daughter was gone. But the look in her baby�s eyes melted that hate, she was at peace and truly happy for the first time in years and it was because of this boy standing in front of her and the little bundle of joy in her arms. Smiling she took a step closer and looked down into Emma�s face before drawing her attention back to the her daughter and her lover. �She has your eyes.� She told him as she wrapped her free arm around his neck and leaned up and kissed his cheek, whispering in his ear. �Thank you for taking care of my baby.� She felt tears threatening to spill when she heard him whisper back. �Thank you for giving me a reason to love.� Pulling back she watched as he blinked his eyes rapidly in an attempt to keep from crying in front of everyone. Everybody chuckled when Maria went into commando mode and told Peter to put her mother�s bags in her room and insisted that everyone else head into the dinning room for diner. He and Jeanie went into the kitchen to begin to serve the meal. A few hours later everyone left Michael and Maria alone with Amy to discuss what has been happening since they have been gone. Jeanie, Ruthie and Karen went into the kitchen to clean up the dinner dishes and Peter and the sheriff went with Marc to his football game. Amy sat in a chair holding her sleeping granddaughter in her arms. She smiled as she watched her little girl sit next to the boy who had stolen her heart. �You must have questions?� �The others are alright?� Michael asked, grabbing Maria hand in his. �Yes, they all made it out. They came to me and explained everything that had happened. I wasn�t to crazy about not reporting you missing, but between Max and Jim I realized that it was best to keep the search low key.� �Jim, as in Jim Valenti?� Maria exclaimed in shock. �Yes Jim Valenti, he has been a great help to the others.� She told them. �He helped you find us.� Michael asked as the realization that Max had gone to the sheriff for help and that obviously the man had proven to be trustworthy. �Yes and no. It was Isabel who finally made a connection. She had tried to dream walk both of you without success. Anyway one day she came over and was in Maria�s room looking for anything that would help in the search when she came across Maria� copy of �Anna of Green Gables� and had a flash. Then between Jim and Alex we were able to locate the two of you or should I say locate the Gullivers.� �Alex, he know too. Who else knows?� Maria asked, digesting everything her mother was telling them. �Just me, Jim, Alex and Kyle. We have been able to keep it a secret from the Evans and Parkers. You should also know that there is another like Michael. Her name is Tess and she helped the other escape.� Amy told the shocked teens. �How?� Both asked at the same time and listened spellbound to the tale of the others escape. Of Tess and the older alien named Nacedo who broke in and got them out. Of how Nacedo was captured and how they along with the Jim and the other humans were able to get him out. Of the escape and Agent Pierce being killed, how Nacedo assumed his identity and deleted all their files. And finally Of his testifying before congress and having the special unit shut down. �Wow, that is amazing. I just don�t understand why did you bother tracking us down and then decided to leave us here.� Michael questioned, still clearly impressed by the story she told. Amy sighed, she had promised Max and the other that she wouldn�t tell them about destiny, Nacedo being murdered or that their enemies had tried to kill all of them. No Max was right about that, she only knew Michael for a few short hours but if he knew the others were waging a war against the Skins then he would insist on coming back to help. She looked the father of her granddaughter in the eyes and told him part of the truth. �Because Max saw how happy you both were and that you and Maria were going to have a baby. He felt that if anyone deserved happiness it was both of you. It took him a long time to convince me that it was the right thing to do, but when he brought me to see you and I saw that Maria�s eyes had a sparkle I hadn�t seen since she was a little girl I knew he was right.� �I should have contacted you. It wasn�t fair putting you through this Mom.� Maria cried softly as Michael wrapped his arm around her. �You gave me up so that I could be happy. I don�t know how I will ever be able to thank you for that.� Amy smiled as she felt her own tears on her face. �Easy, be happy and live a good life with Michael and this angel in my arms.� Michael looked at the older woman for a second before he spoke. �We�re not going to see you again are we?� Maria gasped in shock at what he had said. �Don�t be ridicules, of course we are going to see her again. She�s Emma�s grandmother.� Amy turned and looked at both of them regretting that she was going to have to shatter Maria�s heart. �No Maria, Michael is right. You won�t be seeing me again for a long time. I can�t explain why, I made a promised to the others. I can only tell you that the next time we see each other is when everything is settled.� �There�s more to the story than you told us isn�t there.� Michael questioned her. �Yes, but it doesn�t concern you. It concerns the others. When they feel it is right, then we will be reunited as a family, all of US will be reunited.� She told both of them. �That�s it, you can�t tell me what is going on with my brother and sister because you promised to keep me in the dark. You can�t possible agree with that.� He snapped as he hopped up and stormed over to the window, staring into the woods. �At first no I didn�t think it was fair. Anymore than I thought it was fair at first to leave you both here.� Amy countered back as she stood and walked over to Maria, handing her Emma before strolling over to Michael and forcing him to turn around and look her in the eyes. �Don�t you dare get all holier than thou with me young man. Yes they are making choices for you, but you have also made your choices when you didn�t try to contact either of your siblings after you knew they were alive. Instead you decided to ignore what was in front of you and to keep your family here. I personally think it was the right decision, the same as I think Max is right now. I�m sorry Michael you can�t have it both ways. What is more important, Maria and Emma or knowing what Max is keeping from you?� Michael stared Amy in the eyes and saw that she was telling the truth. He had decided to bury his head in the sand before and now he felt guilty about it. But the guilt wasn�t going to help anyone. Max had his reasons, the same as he had his. So with a slight nod of his head he agreed to stay away. �Your right, I�m sorry. I just want to make sure they�re safe.� He confessed to her. �They are fine. They are dealing with things in their own way. When everything is settled then they will come for you and your family. Then the two of you can decide freely if you want to move back to Roswell or not.� She said as she wrapped her arms around the boy and hugged him. Maria stood by the couch watching her mother and lover hugging and she cried silently as she heard Michael�s sobs. He had done it, he had abandoned his other family and it was tearing him apart. Yes he would be able to live with his decision, but it still hurt him deeply. The three talked late into the night, making the most of the time they had together. Amy told Maria about how she had found herself falling in love with Jim and that they were planning to be married this spring. Maria and Michael told Amy of their plans to be married in June after Maria turns eighteen. Amy was happy that they both were preparing to take examines to be placed in high school and that they would graduate this year. The next day the three of them plus Ruthie went to Ruthie�s attorney and signed the papers giving Ruthie guardianship of Maria. Maria and Amy spent the next two days together talking. They finally buried Jake Harper together and were able to find peace of mind. Maria sobbed as Amy got into the car with the sheriff to drop her off. Their good bye was harder than they could have imagined. Both clung to each other, neither wanted to let go. Finally Amy pulled away from her little girl and went to Michael and Emma. Hugging Michael close to her she kissed him on the cheek before she bent down and kissed the sleeping girl in his arms. Whispering that she loved both of them. She went over and said good bye to the people who had become her daughter�s surrogate family. Hugging and thanking all of them, when she finally reached Ruthie she took the older woman�s hands in hers and told her to take care of her daughter and granddaughter. Ruthie swore she would as the women hugged, both crying uncontrollable. The sheriff came over and told Amy it was time to go. He helped her over to the car and held open the door for her as she got in. Rolling down the window she called out to Maria that she loved her and that she wanted her to make a good life for herself. Maria cried and told her she would. She felt her knees giving and expected to fall to the ground, but instead Michael wrapped his free arm around her. Giving her his frame to lean on. Maria smiled through her tears, she was leaning on Michael. She knew it wasn�t going to be easy but the two of them were going to make it as long as they had each other to lean on. TBC |
