________________________________________________________________________

Max had to kiss her. It was the only way to prove that she belonged to him. He wanted to poses all of her. Max stepped towards Liz, looked in her eyes with love and determination, and pressed his lips to hers. His arms surrounded her small frame, and held her tight to his lean firm body. Max’s tongue swept between her lips repeatedly, taking all of Liz into his mouth. He loved Liz’s special taste, the smell of her, and the feel of her. The kiss became deeper as Max held her body in place for his matting flash kiss. Max thought of all the special moments he had shared with Liz, all the memories he wanted to remind her of, and he then sent them to her in flashes. He wanted her to remember what it was like to be loved by him.

The DJ mumbles vaguely in the background, “Well, it looks like we’ve found our winner.”

Max pulls slowly away from Liz’s lips, so slowly as to caress her while letting her go. He moves his hands back, and looks on Liz’s face. He feels dizzy and disoriented, trying to focus on Liz more clearly. Then his focus is restored while he is still looking at her. She seems to glow from within, and then Max realizes where he is and what he has just done to her, to himself, to them both. He regains some control and starts to walk off the stage.

On his way down he lightly whispers to Liz, “I’m sorry. I…I don’t know what I…I shouldn’t have done that. I’m sorry.”

Maria had been watching Liz’s face the whole time. She saw her flowing emotions of shock, satisfaction, and then hurt. She had to help Liz, so she whispered to Alex, “We have to so something.”

Liz runs down the stage following Max with her eyes trying to catch up with him before he leaves the concert. In the background Maria’s band starts to play.

Liz catches up with Max and speaks softly, “Wait, Max. Max. Did you really mean everything that you said when we were alone tonight?”
Max turns around to face Liz with a look of sorrow on his face, and says, “I don’t remember. What did I say? I didn’t mean to ruin your night.”

Before he could hear what Liz had to say in reply, he left the club, hoping to regain the rest of his control before he did something that would really hurt them both: Telling the truth. He remembered everything he had said, and meant every word, but he couldn’t admit that to Liz. He was afraid to let her know that what he had said tonight was what his heart truly wanted, and he was afraid if she knew, it would take them to a place they should never go. His holding back was the only thing keeping them apart. And it was killing him.

As Max walked out Liz replied, “You didn’t.”

The song “In the Air Tonight” plays softly in the background as Liz felt the happiest she had ever felt and the saddest all at once for the second time in her life.

It was too late to find Max, force him to talk to her, and straighten this all out, so she headed home. Walking by her self down the lonely street, Liz stared up at the starts above. Slowly tears started to stream down her face. How could she be faced with all these emotions and not have any way to express her sorrow? She was desperately in love with Max. All he had to do was look at her with those soulful eyes and she would just melt. Her heart would answer his cry instinctively every time they locked stares. They both felt the irresistible pull toward each other, and she didn’t want to be pushed away from him anymore. She wiped her eyes, and composed herself before entering the café entrance. Liz then made her way into the Crashdown, and went inside to let her parents know she was home.

On her way up the stairs, Liz couldn’t get that kiss out of her head. All she could feel were Max’s lips on hers, his tongue in her mouth, licking her soul into wakefulness, and his hands all over her. All she could see were the images that Max had flashed before her closed eyes of them together; of all the times they had felt that special connection between their minds, bodies, and souls.

Liz got to her room and decided to just start writing in her journal. She needed to find some closure tonight even if Max was unavailable. Grabbing a blanket and retrieving her journal, Liz walked out onto her balcony. She laid the blanket down on the floor next to her reclining chair, turned her soft red and white lights on, and lit some candles so she could see what she was writing. Liz lay stomach down on the blanket propped up by her elbows and opened her journal to the last entry she had made, turned the page, and started to write. For a while the only sounds she could hear were the soft flickering of the candlelight, the fresh breeze from overhead, and the street lamps that always made a soft humming noise. After she finished a quick thought she looked up at the heart Max had made for her tonight. The heart had M.E. & L.P. inscribed in the center of the heart. In his drunken state, Max had created a beautiful gift for her. She never wanted to take it down. As she gazed at the heart, she heard someone down by the street.

“Liz. Liz, are you up there. I need to talk to you, “ said a familiar voice.

Liz knew who it was before she even heard his deep sexy voice call for her. It was her Max.

Max had been walking and walking around the town. He was thinking of all the things he had told Liz while his control had been momentarily taken away. He liked the feeling of loosing control after he had thought about it. Why was he torturing himself and Liz like this? Why deny all his true feelings? He had always felt a pull toward her. She had always been the object of his affection, and finally she was awakened to him as a man. He was still afraid of his alien side because he didn’t know if that side of him could hurt her in any way. He had come to the conclusion that he had to stop fighting this love he couldn’t deny giving any longer. Liz was the one, the only woman he ever wanted. He had to make it up to her for what he had done to her tonight. He would make her see, he would show her what she did to him. He kept thinking that thought as he stopped just below her balcony, and then he called to her.

Liz came to the edge of the balcony and looked down, he could tell she had been crying, and he felt ashamed for turning from her yet again.

“Max…I don’t know if that’s a good idea. You shouldn’t be here.” Liz made a helpless gesture with her hand and stared down at his handsome face.

Max stared at her with renewed determination, “Liz, I need you. I need you to listen to what I have to say. Please forgive me, and let me come up and talk to you.”

How could she deny him. She had no control when it came to Max. He owned her heart. She knew what might happen if she let him onto her balcony, but she didn’t care anymore. She wanted him. Liz whispered high enough for Max to hear, “Ok, Max.”

Once he climbed the railing and kneeled down next to Liz on her blanket, the first thing he noticed was that she had not changed. His Liz was still in her sexy black dress and her hair was almost all up in the same tight hair do as it was throughout the night. A couple of strands were loose around her face, and his body automatically changed. He felt his pants start to fit smaller, he felt his breath come in faster, and he ached to hold her soft body in his arms.

Liz could feel the love and passion in his eyes. Her whole body tightened in a rush from just the look Max was giving her. She felt weak all of a sudden, and had to sit down or fall to the ground from the feelings coursing through her.

“Liz…I, I wanted to apologize for the way I acted after I kissed you.”

Liz looked up at him from the blanket on the floor, “What? I thought you would be apologizing for the way you kissed me not the way you acted after. We both know you didn’t mean what you said to me tonight. People do crazy things when their drunk.”

Max looked into Liz’s eyes, “Do you really believe that? I didn’t want you to know, but I do remember everything I said to you tonight. I meant it with my hole heart and soul.” Max kneeled down in front of Liz on the blanket and brought his fact closer to hers. “I could never not want you Liz. I love you too much.”

She knew what he was saying to be true, but she was having a hard time believing he would let his control go for them. “Max, why are you telling me all this now? What has changed? What are you saying?”

“I am saying I can’t breath without you Liz. I need you. I can’t pretend anymore. I am loosing control and I think I like it.”

A strange glowing red light was coming from her brick wall next to her window. She and Max looked over at the wall to find it was glowing. The heart that Max had made for Liz was glowing in and out. They both looked back at each other. Their faces only inches away. Liz could feel Max’s breath over her lips. She could see his eyes dilated and impassioned. He was making the heart glow with his passion for her.

Max was staring at Liz in her skintight dress laying only a short reach from him on the blanket. She had her legs together underneath her, and the slit in her dress was driving him crazy. He looked back up to her eyes, and lost it. His hands went behind her neck pulling her closer to his waiting mouth. His knees parted and he pulled Liz up between his legs. He wanted to taste her. Taster her until they tasted of each other. He loved the feel of her tongue tangled with his. He could wait no longer. She leaned in towards him, and pulled her lips to his. Their lips met in a soft but firm melting. Max’s tongue stroked her lips in a back and forth motion, and then slid between them. Max took the kiss deeper. He licked her and stoked her with his tongue until she was clutching his shirt. Her hands crept up to his chest muscles and then down his torso toward the bulge in his pants. He parted his legs more for her exploring, and she unbuttoned the top button of his jeans. His kisses began to get more urgent as she pulled his zipper down, pushed his pants and boxers down to his thighs, and freed his enormous male flesh. He was so smooth and hard for her. She brought her knees up on either side of his thighs and pressed her soft core to his pulsing member. Her underwear was the only barrier between their lower bodies. She brought her hands back up to his shirt and it fell away by her searching hands. She ran her hands over his naked taunt chest muscles. She loved his torso. He was hard in all the right places, and she was wet and soft just for him. Max could feel her heat through her thin underwear. She was ready for his body to merge with hers. “Liz…I don’t want to stop, but if you want to you better do it now. I don’t think I can handle much more of this torment without entering your beautiful body.”

Liz sighed in pleasure as she stroked Max’s hard flesh with her body and whispered, “Max…I always want you. I love you with all of myself. I can’t wait any longer either.”

Max was going crazy with desire. He was naked but for his jeans, but even those were not covering the most potent part of him anymore. He had to have his Liz as naked as him. Max grabbed for the bottom of her dress, and pulled it up her body while caressing her legs, thighs, hips, and her arms. Max threw the dress over her head toward the heart on the wall. Liz gasped as the cool night air touched her bear breasts. Her nipples were finally bared to Maxes heady aroused gaze. “Liz…I need to taste you.”

“Oh…Max, I need it to.” Liz surrendered.

Max lowered his hands down her body to her bottom. Her soft legs shifted apart as he pulled her closer to his straining shaft. His hands held her in place for his mouth. He lowered his lips to a tempting nipple as Liz moaned and arched into him fully.

Liz was overwhelmed with need she couldn’t stop rubbing against his hot burning center. They couldn’t speak because their need was so great. They didn’t need words right now. They needed each other. When Liz moved over him in rocking motions Max lost his control again.

Liz leaned back from Max’s face to look into his eyes and said, “I want you Max. I want all of you. I can’t wait another minute. Give me what is mine, and I will give you what is yours.”

Max didn’t need to answer that. He slid Liz off his lap, set her down on the blanket, and pulled off his jeans. He was beautiful, magnificent, and so ready to join his body with hers that she let out a little whimper of need. For a moment she was a little afraid that they wouldn’t fit together, but that thought vanished as soon as he bent down over top of her. He put both his knees between her legs to spread her wide. He could see that she was ready to accept him into her body, but he had to taste her first. His head came down to her stomach and his tongue shot out and circled around her navel. She let out a light gasp, and continued watching him in amazement as he lowered his head to her softest flesh between her legs. His tongue trailed a path from her navel through her soft mound of hair to the tip of her womanly flesh. Then his tongue parted her folds, found her satin nub, and suckled it lightly. She couldn’t take much more of this torture, or she would explode. He took one last full lick all the way through her nether lips and pushed his tongue inside her. She exploded with a soft cry, and he licked her again and again, increasing her climax. She couldn’t hold back. She was released by Max’s expert mouth on her hot core.

She had to have him inside her. “Max…I…I, want to feel you inside me. I want…more. He was hot, long, full, and ready to pulse inside her body. He couldn’t believe what he was doing with his Liz. They were meant for each other to their souls, and they had to become complete.

Max lifted his head and kissed her mouth with a searing kiss that she doubled. He positioned his shaft at her open gate, and slowly he began to enter her. He knew she was still a virgin, but he planned to take all her pain away as soon as it came. He couldn’t bear the thought of causing her pain when he could take it away with the palm of his hands. He slid in deeper into her core, and felt the thin piece of skin that was still intact. They looked into each other’s eyes, and Liz told him without words that she wanted him to enter her all the way. Her hands were clenching his back with need. His strong shaft pulsed through her maidenhead, and he held still as long as he could, while his right hand found where their bodies were joined, and he healed her. He couldn’t hold back his wild passion. As soon as he could see she wasn’t in pain, he thrust into her depths, and stroked her inside flesh with his long shaft until they were sweating from the pleasure of being joined in the most blissful way. “Liz, I love you,” Max softly spoke into her ear as they climaxed at the same moment in time. Max held on to his Liz while she whimpered from their pleasure, and he exploded with his release.

Max came down to rest on top of her, and she looked into his face. She started to giggle, and Max wondered what was so funny. They had just made the most incredible discovery with each other, and she was giggling. Max smiled down at her, and said, “What is it my love?”

Liz gave him a brilliant smile, and said, “You’re wearing my sparkles on your face.” During their love making some of Liz’s sparkle glitter from her face had rubbed off onto Max’s handsome sweaty face, and now he was sparkling in the moonlight.

Max looked down into her content happy face and said, “ That’s not the only place your glitter has traveled.”

Liz looked surprised for a moment when she realized that he had kissed her in a very special place, and there was no doubt that their joined bodies were sparkling all over on the inside and out.
