Chapter 10
Chemicals React
Angela, the twelve year old; smiled at her reflection in the mirror. She looked good. Her sleeveless black top, with a white short cardigan over it, gave her the body she felt comfortable with. Also with light blue denim shorts, and white sneakers. She was on her way to School. The day before the Science Fayr. Her teacher, Mr Wylie, partnered her up with her boyfriend, David. Perfect. The smartest couple in the Science lab, they will win for sure. She tied her hair in two plaits, and added a black bow on top of her head. She headed down stairs to catch the school bus.
Her brother was eating a roll and bacon, while he walked along side her towards the bus stop. "Are you excited today?" he said, as he munched on his breakfast. "Yes! Are you?" she asked, while twirling in the street. "Not really.. I'm paired with Ben. He'll probably do another theory and history of the baseball ball, and even add in some batting like he did last year." he said grimly. The bus slowly stopped in front of them, and they both entered the vehicle. Noise irrupted from the bus. Children shouting at each other, a few picking their noses, and even singing joyful songs. Only one was sitting quiet. Little Suzie Benson. Her father died a week ago. She use to be so cheerful, but now she's quiet as a mouse. Angela smiled softly at her. She did not return the smile. "Hey Angie! Sit here!" shouted Kimi joyfully. Angela smiled, and sat at the very back between Sophie and Kimi. Sophie grinned, as her boyfriend sat beside her. "Hey beautiful." smiled Chris. Sophie giggled. "Hello sexy." said a voice behind Chris. It sounded male, yet pretending to be a female. Everyone turned, and saw David sitting down in front of Christopher. Christopher glared, as everyone else laughed. David winked at Angela. David was wearing the usual a black t-shirt, and denim jeans. In his ear was a stud, and around his neck was a black cross. On his feet were sneakers.
The bus rolled down the road softly and came to a stop outside the school. Everyone exited, and went inside for the bell had already rang. Everyone hustled their way past each other. Causing chaos, and loudness. Angela hurriedly went to the Science Lab. David hurried behind her. They both entered, as Mr Wylie was about to call out the register. He gave them disapproving looks, even though they were only a couple of minutes late. The teacher explained the rules, yet again, and set the pupils to work. "Okay.. We will do the theory of the ball-.." began Ben. Christopher cursed underneath his breath. "Not again." he said. Ben rolled his eyes, as the pair fought. Trevor and Madison fought over the tools, and Kimi splashed chemicals onto Sophie's new yellow and white shirt. She almost fainted. The teacher tutted, and told Sophie to wash it off with bleach in the bathroom.
"What would you like to do?" asked David. "Em, fix the motor on the rocket car, and then maybe even paint it.. We'll be done soon." she reassured him. He laughed. She was crazy about her gadgets. That's why he loved her. Even though he hadn't told her yet. But he was still waiting for the right point.
After a long hour, the bell rang and everyone exited the class.
David stared out the dimmed window. The rain fell down heavily. He grimly turned away from it, and looked back at his teacher. An old woman, with crooked teeth, and a wonky nose. She was busy teaching English while David gazed at Angela. Her plaits fell over her shoulders. She looked amazing. She noticed his stare, and turned to face him. He blushed, and scratched the back of his head. She passed him a small blue note. It read: Meet Numbuh 52 in the Science Lab at break. I have more ideas for the motor.
She winked. He continued to blush, while she giggled under her breath. As the class passed by David's excitement got higher. He was spending some time with Angela. He's taking every chance with her. Life is precious, we can't just simply waste on unnecessary things. When the bell sounded for break, he jumped up from his seat, and walked over to his girlfriend. She smiled brightly. "Someone is keen to win the Fayr." she stated. She grabbed his hand, while guiding the boy to the Science Lab. Mr Wylie didn't reject them being there, when they entered the class. He was leaving for the Staff room.
Angela pulled down the green spanner, and tightened some knots. David smiled, while passing down tools to her. She blushed every time her hand touched his. "So what is your idea?" he asked, after a long period of silence. "I want the rocket to go around the sports' field at least three times. I need lots of fuel, and stronger material for the wheels." she replied. She wiped the sweat from her brow. "Can we do it?" he asked worriedly. "Yes! I'm sure." she replied. She stared up into his eyes. "We can do anything, when we set our minds and hearts on it. Nothing is impossible." she commented. David's heart almost missed a beat. This girl was wonderful in so many ways. If only she knew how important she was to him. "I believe you. Since you were the girl who invented the time machine, and watches." replied David. She nodded, and blushed. "The watches was my future self, and the time machine, the plans and blueprints were my dads." Angela stated. David shook his head, and grabbed hold of her shoulders. "You are awesome! You can invent anything with your bare hands. I've seen your creations they're brilliant. So don't doubt yourself ever! As you say nothing is impossible! Set your heart and mind to it, and you will succeed!" he whispered softly. She dropped her spanner, and wrapped her arms around his back. "Thank you." she whispered back. Her voice gave him a chill down his spine. A tear fell down her face. David didn't let her go.
"Now no more crying! Let's get to work!" shouted David, after finally letting her go. He gave Angela her tool back, and started to paint the rocket a dark red colour. Angela smiled softly. This boy was going to be her husband in the future. Since she's been to the future, without telling anyone. Not even Sophie. Angela remembered the day so well.
The sun was shining hard on the house. A genius ten year old girl was working hard away at her creation, stood near the window. She banged and tapped at it, until it was finally complete. "Finally." she said. She pushed the button, and a small rip was heard from behind her. She entered the black abyss. She screamed, when her back landed on grass. She awkwardly rubbed her back. Angela stared up at the Pine tree. It stared hard at her. As if it was watching her. "What year is Numbuh 52 in?" she asked herself. A loud beeping was heard from behind, and she jumped behind the tree. It sort of hid her face, but not her body. An older Angela in a fast flying car, with turbo engines flew down, and dropped onto the pavement. It droved backwards, into the garage. Sounds of feet banged the ground, an older Angela walked out. She clicked the garage shut. Five children chatted and ran into the house. Two boys, who looked the oldest were joyfully playing tag or another game. One looked roughly ten the other seven. They were followed closely behind by two others. One boy, another a girl. They were holding hands. The boy looked near six, and the girl looked three or four. Angela kissed a tired looking David at the front door. The door was shut, and the noise continued to echo. "This is my future…" she brightly said. A small portal appeared, and she was sucked back to her own world, and time.
David stared Angela. She was in a trance. He waved his free hand over her face, but she didn't move. "Angela?" he asked, worriedly. She slowly came back into the world, and cleared her throat. "I love you." she blurted out. She blushed heavily. He smiled softly. "I've been waiting for the right time to tell you this. I guess this is it." he blushed. "I love you Angela Tia Gilligan.. Don't ever leave me. I'll be yours for ever.. If you wish." he said, while staring into her chocolate eyes. She giggled, and jumped on top of him, smothering him with kisses. His ears turned pink, as the paint he was holding fell and collided with their clothes. They rolled about on the floor for a few minutes, until they saw sense again. They both chuckled at the red blotches on their faces. "I guess we need to go and get cleaned." she replied. He grinned. Before Mr Wylie walked back in. They were already placing their rocket parts back in the storage cupboard, and running out of the classroom. Mr Wylie will not be pleased. Not pleased at all.
