| Part 2 |
| Isabel snuggled under the covers once more. Deeply disturbed by Alex2's dream. *Was it really just a dream? What did it mean? Is it alien-related or just a figment of his imagination? No, it couldn't be that. I mean how would he know about his namesake like that, I never told him about Alex. Was it a sign? Is Alex really gonna come back? No... could he? What if he does? What am I going to do? Do I love him? Do I love him more than Jesse? NO! Nonononono don't even go there Isabel* she scolded herself. *But....... Oh, GOD! I have to talk to Max............ and Liz too.* She thought finally before she drifted off into a restless sleep. The following morning Isabel woke up to a silent household. Jesse was already at work and Alex2 was at school. It was Isabel's day to sleep in and Jesse got Alex2 off to school. Stretching lazily Isabel's thoughts drifted to the dream she had the the night before. *Hmmmm, what A DREAM! Wow! WAIT! Whoa back up! It was about...... Alex????? Not Jesse but ALEX! But, but.. I've never even come close to doing those things with him. Not that I didn't think about it..... JESUS Isabel! stop thinking about your dead ex-boyfriend, you ...are ..... MARRIED! But, I really thought we were going to be together... forever finally. But then Tess killed him and.... he was gone. Just like that and I..... I just.... I don't know.* she finished her thoughts sullenly and hopped out of bed and forced herself to think about something different. 2 hours later Isabel couldn't stop thinking about him so she relented and picked up the phone to call Max. But Max wasn't there, Liz was. "Hello?" Liz said. "Liz? Hi, it's Isabel. Is Max there?" sounding almost frantic. "Um, no Isabel, he's at work with Jesse. Did he tell you he was staying home today?" Liz asked confused. "Oh... no he didn't tell me that. I just forgot that's all." Isabel said sounding defeated. "I guess I'll call him there then." "Wait Isabel what's wrong?" Liz asked, truly concerned for her sister-in-law. "Nothing... I just need to talk to Max about something........ alien-related" she said finally. "Oh, Anything I can do?" she offered. Isabel pondered that for a minute and then came up with a thought. "Actually yeah, you can" |
