[Those words, "I love you" really can't be said enough. He knows it's something he could be better at. Expressing his feelings has always been something he's struggled with his entire life. When you're a kid who grew up like he did, you learn pretty quickly that it's not safe to be vulnerable and open but losing Max once already made him realize a lot of things and he didn't say it nearly enough to Max before he died; he didn't tell him how he felt or what Max meant to him. It's a mistake he'll never make again and he wants to take every opportunity to make sure he knows.
Max's words startle a laugh out of him. He can imagine inviting Alex and Liz would be a shitshow but hey, he'll never pass up an opportunity to get Max's hands on him.] Oh please, the second I see Liz giving you one of those sad longing looks you two used to always give each other. I'm going to have to do a lot more than give you a hand job under the table.
[In all honesty, Michael isn't sure he's ready to see Max and Liz together and it has nothing to do with not trusting Max. He trusts Max completely. He knows Max's feelings, his heart and soul intimately. A part of him will probably always be a little jealous and possessive and maybe even a little afraid of abandonment. He knows it's something he needs to work on.]
You know it's only a matter of time before they both come back, right?
