"He didn't trust me at first. I think - I think he was angry at Max for using his powers to save me." Not really the 'saving' part as much as the alien-involvement part.
"He was especially angry when I told Maria, but she's my best friend and she was there when I was shot and she'd have been more dangerous not to tell than to tell." She stopped because somehow she felt like she was, again, justifying why she included Maria. Of course, Michael wouldn't necessarily object now.
"He stole my journal, actually." She had freaked out. "It was went Topolsky was around, too, so I was really worried she stole it."
Liz shifted a little on the bed. "I think after he read it, he realized I could be trusted." She tilted her head to the side, thoughtful. "But... I think it took a long time for him to realize I considered us friends. I think he's so used to people hating him or whatever that he just assumed we were all putting up with him instead of actually caring."
Even now, she was sure Michael might question if they'd come to help him. "I think after we helped him out with his dad, he figured out we might not just be because he hangs around, you know?"
She didn't know for sure. Like she said, Michael wasn't a sharer.
