I actually encourage you to read my writings in the DARK and while wearing HEADPHONES.<\/p>\n<p>2. BEFORE reading, scroll through the entire episode. If you see YouTube VIDEOS, be sure to load all videos in the order that they appear so that they are pending and ready to view when you get to them in the episode. The numbers proceeding \u201cEnter Song\u201d states how long to leave it playing.<\/p>\n<p>3. I encourage you to message me ideas, feedback, suggestions or media (photos, videos, music, etc.) that you&#8217;d like to be taken under consideration. I try to make this as close to an actual Season 4 of Roswell (had it actually happened) as possible and I want the fans to be completely satisfied.<\/p>\n<p>4. &#8220;~ ~&#8221; signifies what would normally be a &#8220;commercial break&#8221; and &#8220;&#8212;&#8221; signifies a skip from one location (aka \u201cscene\u201d) or situation to another.<\/p>\n<p>5. Episodes will obviously be a lot shorter than what they would be on television. It would be like writing a novel every two weeks if I wrote enough for a 45 minute show. And I don&#8217;t think anyone wants that.<\/p>\n<p>6. The title &#8220;PREVIOUSLY&#8221; before every episode (besides the first episode obviously) is a way to catch up on the previous key points of the previous episode if you missed one. But I encourage you read all episodes because they are very time consuming on my behalf.<\/p>\n<p>7.

She was adopted, and all she could recall from her early childhood was the ugly Christmas sweater her adoptive mom wore when they adopted her &#8211; in Roswell, in July. She remembered the joy it brought her seeing the artificial Christmas lights on the thick sweater. She can\u2019t recall much before that moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hey, go grab another blanket. You\u2019re hogging this one&#8221; Sam demanded.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lenny sighed and forced herself to slide off the couch.

They had decided to crash downstairs on the couch to countless chick flicks since her parents were off on some trip at the beginning of the school year, giving them the entire house for the remainder of the weekend. It was still raining but it sounded quieter from her room. It was like a gentle tapping on the roof now that the storm had subdued to a light evening shower. Yet, Lenny stopped in her tracks. As if something instinctive had taken over her, she felt the presence of something she could not describe. She\u00a0stood still in the middle of the room, listening\u00a0to the placid rain, until she realized, in the gist of the light pounding, there was a soft knocking noise.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/images\/news\/2013\/08\/10.jpg\" class=\"pic\"\/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Alex???&#8221; Lenny says confused but hurries to slide the window open. He helps himself inside. &#8220;Alex, what are you doing here?&#8221; she chuckles a little off beat.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I need to talk to you. Liz told me I could find you here.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She must have. What do you want?&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alex turns to shut the window and he approaches Lenny casually. He stood less than a foot from her when he stared into her eyes. It was an awkward moment of silence between them that made her turn her gaze away from him for a moment, only to return it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You\u2019re Michael Guerin\u2019s daughter?&#8221; he asked, almost sounding surprised, but not quite. Their ocean blue eyes connected for a moment longer before\u00a0she\u00a0nodded\u00a0as a reply.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/images\/news\/2013\/08\/11.jpg\" class=\"pic\"\/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>His eyes glanced down at her, studying her practically, then looked into her eyes again.

Suddenly, he turned to her.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I know Lenny\u2026 I know what you are.&#8221; He stared at her for some sort of reaction. All she could do was swallow, gaze directly into his eyes and reply firmly.<\/p>\n<p><center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"..\/..\/..\/..\/images\/news\/2013\/08\/13.jpg\" class=\"pic\"\/><\/center><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don\u2019t know what you\u2019re talking about\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Alex stared at her a moment longer then walked slowly across the room.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Lenny\u2026 I was told to come here to tell you that I know.
