A/N: Wow, that took me a LONG time! There was a problem with the DocX system and my beta reader, Midnight Angel414, never got the file. It took us a few months to figure that out … and then I had to retype the chapter, because the only digital copy is saved on a flash-drive, which got run over by at least one car …
Anyway, here's the new chapter! I hope you guys like it!
Thanks to javadreamer and mondler1998 for the reviews!

During their drive both of them were quiet. Jo's eyes were locked with the road the whole time, her look was very concentrated. Zane kept his mouth shut so he wouldn't say something stupid which would possibly change Jo's mind.

Eventually they arrived at S.A.R.A.H. and they made their way down into the bunker. When Jo stepped in she immediately asked, "S.A.R.A.H., anyone here?"

"No, Jo. Just you and Zane," the AI responded.

"Okay, please shut down all record systems."

After a couple of moments of silence, then the house said, "All records off line."

"Thanks, S.A.R.A.H." Jo moved towards the couch and Zane followed her.

When the woman spoke, Zane could see fear in her eyes, like she was afraid she had made the wrong decision. "What do you want to know?"

Zane thought for a moment. "How did you get the ring?"

"You..." she took deep breath. "You gave it to me on Founder's Day. You proposed." Jo looked away. "And…I hesitated. I think you thought it meant 'no' and you left."

After moments of silence Zane asked, "How come I don't remember?"

She still wasn't looking at him. "After that, my phone rang and when I answered it, I was in 1947. When I came back, I was here. And nothing of 'our'", her finger was moving back and forth between them. "Past had happened." Zane's eyes widened.

"And I wasn't the same any more..." Jo nodded and looked up like a child waiting for it's punishment. It seemed like she was afraid of Zane's reaction.

His mind was working overtime. He had thought it had been something like that, but now, hearing it from Jo, and seeing her emotions in her eyes made it seem worse than he had imagined it to be.

He tried to think of something to say. Sure, he had a ton of questions, but it didn't feel right to ask them now. He wanted to show her he could be trusted, that he wouldn't turn her down, that he would be there for her.

It was a spontaneous reaction. He moved over to her and just hugged her. "I'm sorry!" he whispered into Jo's ear. Her body tensed up for a moment and then relaxed against Zane's body.

After some time Jo pulled away, a weak smile appearing on her face. "Thanks. But it's not really your fault."

Zane smiled now too. "Well, I made things harder for you than they had to be."

"It's okay, I guess," Jo said in a honest way.

"Um…can I ask you some things?" Zane just wanted to make sure it was really okay with her. She nodded. "Who else knows?"

"Ah…well, Carter, Allison, Fargo and Henry were back there, too. Grant came along. Henry told Grace, and I told you. Well, and Beverly figured it out somehow." Zane nodded.

"For a secret, that's a lot of people. How much is different?"

"The first thing we noticed was Archimedes being granite." Jo smiled as she realized that something so simple signalized them that it was a whole different world they had come back to. "Allison was head of GD, Fargo her assistant and I was still Carter's deputy. Back there, Kevin was autistic, Henry and Grace just had met that day, and Carter and Tess had already broken up. But I guess that's not important anymore as they broke up here, too. (A/N: Just wanted to mention the Carter-Tess part because in most stories it's not mentioned and I just really like Tess (; ) Oh…and Fargo had a girlfriend."

Zane grinned. "He had a real, living girlfriend?"

Jo nodded. "Yeah. Here she works for Google and is married to an astronaut."

"That's hard!" Jo shrugged.

They sat in uncomfortable silence for some time. Eventually Jo said, "Okay…so..." she stood up. "I think we should go back to work. We're already late." Zane followed her to the door. Before she could leave the bunker, he stopped Jo. Zane looked into her eyes and she stared right back.

"Thanks, for sharing!" He leaned down and captured her lips in a sweet kiss.

A/N: Well, that's it for this time … I'm already writing on the next chapter.
And let me know what you think!
