Part 1- Liz's POV
Tap, tap, tap
Hey you out there, don’t try and hide I know your there watching and waiting.
You’re intrigued, you’re curious, its okay to admit it, there are others out there just like you. You want to know what’s so special about a small town girl.
What makes her so important that everyone wants to know about her?
When you figure it out please let me know because I still don’t have a clue.
I guess I can start with the basics my name Elizabeth Parker, my friends call me Liz. You can’t call me that yet because I don’t know you, maybe later on...I’ll let you know.
Like I said before I’m a small town girl, born and raised in Roswell, New Mexico. Yes I know alien capital of the world, do they exist, maybe... maybe not, I’ll tell you one day.
Back to me I am sixteen, a junior at West Roswell High. I live with my father and mother, I know hard to believe in today’s societies.
I live in a little three bedroom apartment above a restaurant called the Crash Down, my parents own it. I work there along with one of my best friends Maria, but I will tell you about her in a little bit.
Anyways back to the restaurant, it’s decorated with alien theme, with cheesy menu items like Blood of Alien Smoothie. We have to wear these little uniforms with alien head aprons and little silver antennas to top it off.
Don’t ask me what drugs my father was taking when he made this stuff up, honestly I think he did acid when he was younger and he was having a flashback.
Now for my looks, I don’t consider myself ugly, but I don’t consider myself a total knock out either, I think sometimes if I cover myself in chocolate I can get lost and no one would find me. I have long brown hair, brown eyes (hence hiding myself in chocolate) I mean no one would even notice.
I have several friends, I wouldn’t say we are popular but we aren’t outcasts either, we just pretty much stick to ourselves. Want to meet them? I’ll give you the run down.
First there’s Maria, with her short blonde hair and her big green eyes, she manages to turn a few heads every now and then. The thing I love and hate about her, point blank her mouth, she can talk a mile a minute without stopping to take a breath.
But she’s kind, loyal and caring she’s the best friend anyone would want to have. Don’t get me wrong she’s not perfect; let’s just say you want to be across state lines if she gets riled up. Between you and me it happens a lot.
There’s Michael, he’s Maria on again off again boyfriend, and presently they are on right now. I give them a week before their off again. Michael is quiet, not a shy quiet but he just doesn’t like to talk much. (Expect when he’s fighting with Maria) It’s kind of ironic that he and she are together I mean one is almost mute while the other could make you buy stock in ear plugs to tune her out.
Let’s see moving on there’s Kyle, now Kyle is your typical jock when it comes to playing, if you ever saw him without his letter jacket you would never know he was the captain of the basketball team. He doesn’t hang out with the jocks.
Other than when he’s playing he stays clear of them, oh yea and his dad is the town sheriff. But he’s a cool sheriff he lets Kyle have parties all the time. Now I know what your thinking must not be a good sheriff if he allows underage kids to drink and party at his house.
His philosophy is I would rather the kids be at my house, where I know they are safe then to have them out rating the streets all hours of the night. Hey who am I to argue with him.
I don’t want you to think we are a bunch of alcoholic teenagers, sure we like to have fun but we are responsible...nobody lets anyone get behind the wheel if they have been drinking.
Most of the time cars stayed park in front of Kyle’s house until the next morning when the kids come to collect them, if they don’t crash at Kyle’s house instead.
Okay next there’s Alex, dear sweet Alex. Okay so he’s not a total babe but his brain and heart makes up what his looks lack. He is a computer genius, mark my words one day he is going to be a millionaire. Now I will tell you something, but you have to promise me you won’t tell him I told you, he hates when I tell this story.
One day in our freshman year, I was sitting out on the bleachers with Maria, Max and Isabel, we were watching Alex play dodge ball, and by the way he’s really good at that. Anyways I was watching him run around and I couldn’t help it.
Now to give you an idea of what he looks like, he can pass for Tom Hanks son, I mean dead ringer. So anyways he’s running across the court and he reminded me of that movie Forrest Gump so me and my big mouth stood up and yelled ‘run Forrest run’ he stopped dead in tracks and then it happened wham the ball hit him square in the nose.
The ball broke his nose, I know I was wrong and I told him I was sorry over and over again. I swear I really was, don’t look at me like that. He didn’t speak to me for a week, sometimes my mouth just opens and I stick my foot in it without even thinking. I winded up doing his biology homework for a week, I really didn’t mind I love biology.
Another thing about Alex he is head over heels in love with Isabel, but she won’t give him the time of day, personally I think she’s just playing hard to get, she’s going to cave one of these days.
Now Isabel twin sister of Max (well get to him later, he might take a while) anyways back to Isabel she is the girl all guys want and all the girls hate because all the guys want her. Did I confuse you there? I hope not.
She has long blonde hair in a nutshell, is a total knockout and she knows it. She comes off hard and cold but those of that know her. Know she is very caring and she has a heart of gold underneath that cold exterior she gives off.
Then there’s Tess, plain and simple I hate her she wants the one thing I want, that’s all I’m going to say.
And Last there is Max, my Max (well I can dream) we have been best friends since we were six; we are like the Joey and Dawson of Dawson’s Creek. We spend the nights by each others house, tell each other everything. Well not everything there is one thing I haven’t told him. Not sure if I should tell you either you might go blab it to him. You would too wouldn't you, just like Maria a big blabber mouth.
He is just perfect, with this dark brown hair and his eyes, his eyes will suck you in every time. They are an amber color and I swear he has specks of gold in them. All the teachers love him, all the parents love him, that boy can just do no wrong. I swear you should see some of the stuff he gets away with.
Now he is the shy one, well with the exception of me he tends to stick to the shadows most places. I think he’s scared someone will find out his secret, Psst I’ll tell what it is later. He is the greatest thing that ever came into my life, the problem I am in love with him, but he doesn’t see it.
I do a great job of hiding it, well not that good seeing that every one of our friends can see it plain as day but not him, he still only looks at me as plain little Liz Parker, his best friend.
You wonder why I haven’t told him, I’ll tell you several reasons for a matter of fact.
One I don’t want to lose our friendship, if I told him how I felt this is how it would play out, me being the fool.
Fool tells object of affection how she feels, fool already knows he doesn’t feel the same way.
Fool puts strain on friendship resulting in awkward moments which would only lead to avoidance, final result no boyfriend, no best friend. Fool is alone for the rest of her life kicking herself in the butt.
Reason two I think he likes someone else, want to know who it is? I’ll give you clue I hate her, does that answer your question?
Well there you have it basically the short version of my life, now I know you are wondering will girl have a happy ending, will the girl get the guy in the end.
All I can say is sit back, relax, buckle up and enjoy the ride. Welcome to my life.
Part 2 Max’s POV
Are you sitting down, are you comfortable?
Good because I have a feeling you’re going to be fidgeting in your seat, by the time I’m done giving you a peek inside my life.
My life is a complicated one, not only do I deal with the every day complications of being a teenage boy, but also I carry a secret.
One that could mean life or death for my friends and I.
I know your wondering what could be so serious that would make this boys life so guarded.
Well I’ll tell you I am an alien.
Yes you heard right and no I am do not have green skin and bug eyes underneath my skin, I am actually a hybrid half alien half human in case you didn’t know, along with my sister Isabel and two of our friends Michael and Tess.
We come from a planet called Antar, where I was King, Isabel a princess, Michael my second in command and Tess being my bride.
We were killed because some guy up there didn’t like us, so basically the short story of it is they cloned us and sent us down here.
There are only a few humans that know about us, I can tell you about them in a minute.
Back to me, I am sixteen; full name Maxwell Phillip Evans, but most people call me Max.
I hate Maxwell, so please don’t call me that, if you do I might mistake you for my mother who only calls me that when she’s mad at me or if you do it anyways I may have to magically glue your ass to your chair.
Other than that I am just your run of the mile teenage boy, you know hanging out with friends, listening to music, discovering that no matter what you try, you stay horny from the time you wake up till the time you go bed.
The others like me starting with Michael
He’s my best friend, if I’m not with Liz; I’m usually with Michael. He’s got a knack for jumping in feet first and I am usually the one left bailing him out.
His girlfriend Maria is one of Liz’s best friends, When he first started seeing her I didn’t understand why he became so quiet, I mean he used to talk all the time.
Then I discovered why, Maria doesn’t let him get a word in edge wise, sometimes her mouth reminds me of the energizer bunny you know keeps going and going.
Isabel my sister, we are pretty close, we have only gotten into one or two fights which is amazingly unbelievable considering she is a bitch. Yes you heard me, my sister is the Queen Bitch, and she can give you a look that would make you scurry away like a hurt dog.
Then there’s Tess, she was supposedly my wife in our last life, when we first found out we both looked at each and just busted out laughing…as if.
After talking we both learned that we are both in love with different people, but to scared to tell them, for one the fear of being rejected the other we don’t know what would happen.
I mean we know Michael is with Maria and they kiss, but we don’t know if they have gone beyond, what if we give them alien herpes or something.
So instead of telling the objects of our affection the truth, we came up with this plan. I know it may sound stupid but watch one day its going to work.
Its already working it’s charms on Kyle, I can see the jealously rippling off of him whenever Tess and I pretend to like each other. I have to give props to Tess because she is a much better actor than I am, hell sometimes I even believe her.
But I have to admit its fun to ruffle Kyle’s feathers, we have always had this little rival going since I kicked his butt in basketball back in ninth grade, so we are always trying to get one up on each other and right now I am a couple of steps ahead of him by pretending to like her and working up the courage to ask her out.
But at the same time I am also hoping that one day it will make a certain Liz Parker jealous and she’ll realize that she is madly in love with me.
I know your probably wondering by now who is Liz Parker, I have mentioned her a couple of times but I haven’t told you about her.
Well she is my best friend, my goddess, my object of obsession, my Venus (you might want to tell me to stop because I can keep going)
We have been best friends for as long as I can remember, our parents are friends that is how we met, since then we have been joined at the hip, spending the nights by each others house every Wednesday and Friday night.
If I didn’t exist for anything else, I would exist just to be able to do that.
I cherish those moments with her, and even thou they are becoming harder with my raging hormones always ending in a rigid state and I wind up sleeping in a corkscrew position the whole night, for two nights a week I gladly sacrifice myself.
Just thinking about it I am getting myself in a very embarrassing situation in front of you, so let’s just get this show on the road.
Okay um could you just please turn your head for minute while I give myself a quick talking to, he’s still hung up on thinking about Liz.
