The Reasons Why We Love Our Candy :

1. Their sarcastic remarks

8. The way Michael kisses Maria's neck when they're making out...oh man.
9. The looks Michael sometimes gives Maria especially in WR and Destiny.
10. Maria not taking Michael's crap i.e. Toy House. Although the writers didn't do they jobs in the last eppys. Hopefully our spunky Maria will be back next season.

16. 285 South in particular
17. The Red Sneakers
18. The way Maria holds/comforts Michael in the "bed" scene in ID
19. The easy way Michael says the words "I just make to make her happy" in Crazy

35. Because Maria didn't care about the stupid visions, she just wanted Michael & her to be closer!
36. Because Michael would still be lost in the darkness without his Maria there to light the way with all of her sparkles and glitter and laughter and light. And I honestly believe that they could become each other's world if they could just open up themselves enough to let each other in.

75. The way Maria-sometimes-keeps her eyes open when they kiss.
76. The way Michael's lips quiver when he finds something difficult to say
77. They're Michael and Maria- spaceboy and pixie

105. Because of those amazing Eraser Room kisses.
106. Because I say so!
107. Because Heat Waves and napkin holders just wouldn't be the same without them

109. Because of the first kiss. The way he swooped in and kissed her and then said, "That was to calm you down.". The way they both acted like it didn't mean anything, but you could tell it did!
110. The sarcastic zingers and witty banter this well-suited pair toss each other very complex, well-guarded hearts. They circle each other like combatants in a ring, wary, cautious and distrustful.

112. Because they both care about and protect their friends
113. The way they both use their eyes and eyebrows to communicate everything they're not saying
114. Because they just happen to be a couple in the background and I like that, because its not that obvious at first, everybody was becoming a "dreamer" and then some "episodes down the road" I saw the potential like every other "candy girl" too and I like 'em because they both keep the fun in the show, imagine the show without 'em. Huh?
