I'm really sorry about the confusion about the year thing. Phil's year that he came from is 2126 not 2116. I'm sorry. But it is supposed to be 2011 in Keely's time.
Spoiler: New Character! Well two but on is unimportant. The other will change the plot up a little. You'll see. Next chapter coming soon. I'm just too tired to write anymore. 2:17am Woot!
Phil then drove to a jewelry store on 12th Street. As he walked in there was another couple trying to pick out their wedding rings. They were an older couple. The man in his thirties, and the woman in her late twenties. The man had his arm around the woman's waist as he looked with her at what she wanted to put on her finger on top of the engagement ring. Phil looked at the rings with diamonds and pink sapphires. He knew Keely liked pink sapphires, and he knew every girl liked diamonds, even though they are worthless in the future. He'll just have to buy her another later.
"May I help you sir?"
Phil was startled from lost thought, "Uh, yes, I'd like to buy a ring. I'm asking my girlfriend to marry me."
"Oh yes sir! Let me show you over here!" He motioned Phil to come look at a second display case.
Phil opened the car door and jumped in. He was as excited as ever. He could feel the ring box in his pocket.
Keely called her friend Isabelle and invited her to get coffee. She walked down to the coffee shop and met up with her.
"So, what has happened over the last week?" Isabelle asked.
"Well, and old flame have grown."
"Oh! Who is it? Is it Ben? I knew it! When you left the alter you still wanted him! I knew it, I knew it!" Isabelle was proud of herself for thinking that was the answer.
"Actually, no, it's a friend from high school."
"Oh, did he go to our collage?"
"No, he left before high school ended."
"Damn, I wanted to know him. Well how big has that flame grown?"
"Pretty big." she said while looking at her hands.
"Oh my god. You're pregnant. The only reason why a woman would say 'Pretty big'"
"No! I'm not pregnant! At least…. I don't think I am."
"You had sex with him? When?"
"Last night."
"What happened?" Isabelle was looking for deep details.
"Well first, his name is Phil. And we were in the hot tub talking and we started kissing and made love." Keely smiled.
"Oh my god! That's great! But why do you say you aren't sure if your pregnant or not?"
"We didn't use a condom."
"Oh, don't worry. No one ever gets pregnant from the first sex with someone new!"
"Well, he got another woman pregnant once."
"Oh! Keely got a bad boy!" She teased.
"Well-" Keely was interrupted by the sight of her ex-lover, Ben. "Well speak of the devil."
"What?" Isabelle turned in her chair to see him, too. He spotted the two ladies inside and opened the door. "Keely!" He opened his arms in a hug. Keely hesitated. "Ben!" she hugged him back.
"How have you been?"
"Fine, just fine."
"You look great! It's a shame we never got married. I would have loved to wake up to this face every morning." He said tickling Keely's chin. Keely moved her chin away.
"Shameful isn't it."
"'Tis very. I'm sure the man you're with now isn't at all as much nice to you."
"He is and he also doesn't sleep with other women."
"Why, whatever are you implying?"
"You well know jackass." Isabelle broke in.
"But there is no proof. I never would have cheated on you my love."
"Maybe not. But at least my new man doesn't cause me suffering."
"It's your own fault for not using the safety word!"
"Well I think 'Oh! Stop! Your really hurting me! Stop it now!' is pretty close to the safety word."
"That is not at all near to 'Washington'!"
"Shut the fuck up pretty boy!" Isabelle yelled.
"Hey, hey, hey. We're all friends here aren't we?"
"Maybe so."
"My current gal has kicked me out tonight. She's having an girls only dinner party. Mind if I come over Keely?"
"No! Not at all!" Keely said sarcastically.
Obviously not understanding the sarcasm, "Oh! Great!"
Keely looked at her watch, it was about 5. She decided that she needed to get home to get ready for her date with Phil. "Look Ben. I have to go."
"Great, I'll come with you!"
"No, I need to get ready for something."
"Please, I'm just going to stay in the living room and not bother you at all."
Needing to get out of there fast she gave in, "Fine, but no funny business!"
"No business at all!" he said back.
On the way back to the house, Keely called Phil's wizard. Phil hid in an area of the store he was in that it was safe to talk. "Keely! Hi!" he said.
"Hey Phil! Uh, my ex wants to stay at the house tonight is that ok?" She cringed at the thought of him staying in the same room as him again.
Phil's heart sank, "Uh, sure."
"Do you still want to go to dinner?"
Phil felt the ring in his pocket, "No, we can reschedule. It's fine."
"Ok, well I'll see you when you get home."
Now depressed, "Ok, yea, bye, I love you." He hung up and returned the bouquet of roses he bought.
Keely and Ben arrived at Keely's house. Keely felt the need to take a shower anyways, so she picked out her clothes for after her shower and brought them to the bathroom. Before he heard the shower turn on, Ben had the TV on the Discovery channel. As soon as he heard the shower turn on, Ben stood up and tip toed to Keely's bedroom. He was on a search for Keely's underpants. He opened the top drawer and found his goldmine.
