I do not own ITV's TV show caled Primeval, or any of it's characters/ elements. No copyright infringement intended.

This is dedicated to a certand WolfQueene, thanks to whom I get to see season 4 (and hopefully 5 too :D ).

I titled it Changes because Matt's life is obviousely different with Emily in it, and Emily's life is one big series of changes, since she was born in the Victorian era and landed in the 21st century.

Thanks for alloting my story your time :).

Enjoy.

'Ethan, please, stop! No! Please!' she screamed as he closed her in the grave he had thrown her in. It was so dark and cramped in there! And the air grew heavier and heavier. She could hardly breathe and the walls of her prison seemed to be drawing closer and closer, crushing her. She struggled to free her hands from the ruthlessly tight knots that bound them underneath her, behind her back, but the only thing she managed was to hurt herself. Screaming made breathing even harder, but she didn't want to stop, as noise was the only thing that would make anybody aware of her presence there. But there was no one there to hear her, to save her. She was a strong, hard headed woman, who feared few things, death not being one of them, but panic begun to overtake her mind at the thought of her imminent doom. She didn't want to die there! Alone and so far away from her home, her time, her family, everything she knew… She found herself wishing she hadn't left… Why did she leave? Because her parents were ruined and they were forcing her into marrying a wealthy man she did not love. Her parents, mum and dad… how she missed them now… She didn't want to die! She started screaming even louder, unable to restrain her tears of desperation from flooding her cheeks any further as she begun furiously kicking the lid… She gasped for air and opened her eyes. To her surprise, she became aware of the fact that her hands weren't tied and that she was resting on something soft, had plenty space and air.

Of course! She was safe, at Matt's place, it had all been a bad dream. One disturbing nightmare that kept repeating itself ever since Ethan had tried to leave her to a slow, torturing death… But he failed, Matt got to her in time and saved her- again. He promised he would keep her safe, promised that never again would he allow anyone to take her away from him. He said those things with such a force, she knew that not only were they true, but also that he meant them. She was safe. There was nothing to worry about. Ethan thought she was dead, and when he was going to discover she was not, which was bound to happen sooner or later, he was going to be the one in danger, not her, Matt had made that quite clear. She smiled, shifted into a more comfortable position and closed her eyes again, trying to go to sleep.

Matt had promised to teach her to cook and she wanted to be fully rested and able to concentrate at what he was going to show her tomorrow. After all, considering all he had done for her so far, he deserved at least a decent meal waiting for him when he came home from work...
