Marty's POV
We got to the high school.
I pointed to the school and said, jokingly, "Looks brand new. They've must've done a good job cleaning it."
Annie shot me a look and said, "Not the time for jokes, Marty."
Timmy asked, jokingly, "Who are you and what have you done with Annie?"
Before Annie could answer, Doc intervened and said, "Now, if my calculations are correct, you interfered with your parent's first meeting, that's why your brother is disappearing from that picture. You sister will follow and unless you don't repair the damage, you'll be next."
I mumbled, "Aw, this is heavy."
Doc shot me a confused look and responded, "Weight has nothing to do with it."
Annie turned to Doc and said, "Actually, Doc. Marty's just saying that this is a lot to take in."
She leaned into me as did Timmy.
Timmy whispered, "You know as well as we all do that dad doesn't know a thing about '80's slang."
I nodded in agreement and we got in the school.
Doc looked at me, curiously and asked, "So, which one is your father?"
I pointed at my young dad and said, sadly, "Him."
Doc saw him and he was getting kick in the ass because of a 'kick me' sign on his back. Annie rolled her eyes out of embarrassment and Timmy sighed out of embarrassment.
Doc said, trying to make us all feel better, "Maybe you were adopted."
Timmy added, "It's possible, Marty. Ask the expert."
I weakly smiled and scratched my chin. Timmy knew how to pack a punch in a point. Just then, a voice caught my attention. Strickland came over to my younger father and started to call him a slacker.
Annie mumbled, "That's Strickland! Geese, didn't that guy have any hair?"
I shrugged and answered, "Apparently not."
Doc turned to us and said, "Get to it, you two. Timmy and I will stay right here."
Timmy responded, "Right, dad."
Annie and I nodded in agreement and we went over to my younger father. We both helped him pick up his stuff.
I said, "Hey, George. Do you remember me? The guy who saved your life?"
He nodded and answered, "Y-yeah."
Annie smiled and responded, "Well, George. There is someone we want you to meet."
We led him straight to my young mother, who was with some friends.
I called her, "Lorraine?"
Mom spun around and saw me.
She leaned up on the locker and said, dreamily, "Calvin! Amie!"
I smiled at her, trying to be pleasant, and said, "I like you to meet my friend, George McFly."
Dad went over to my mom and said, holding out his hand, "It's nice to meet you."
Well, at least he was being friendly. But, she blew him off and went over to me.
She asked, "How's your head?"
I quickly pulled away and answered, "I'm fine."
The bell rang and they all took off and I heard my mom saying, "Isn't he a dreamboat?"
Doc and Timmy came over.
Timmy said, jerking his thumb at my mom, "Whoa, now that's serious stuff."
I said, depressed, "She didn't even look at him, Doc."
Annie looked at me and pointed out, "I think Aunt Lorraine has gotten the hots for you instead of Uncle George."
Doc nodded and added, "It happens sometimes in hospitals. Nurses do fall for their patients."
Annie smiled, decked me playfully, and jokingly said, "You lucky guy."
Timmy giggled at my discomfort. I shot them a look, a disturbed look.
I mumbled, "Aw, this is heavy."
Doc perked up and responded, "There is that word again, heavy. Is there something wrong with the earth's gravitate pull?"
Annie nodded and said, jokingly, "Yeah, let's go with that, Doc."
Timmy added, "Yeah, whatever you say, dad."
Doc ignored them and said, "We've got to figure out how to get those two to successfully mate."
I responded, "Yeah but what do kids like to do in the '50's?"
Timmy responded, "That is a good question, dad."
Doc pointed out to me, "Well, they are your parents. You must know them by now. What do they like to do together?"
Annie answered, sadly, "Nothing."
Doc pointed at a poster and exclaimed, "Look, some sort of ritual is coming up!"
I examined the poster and exclaimed, "Of course! The Enchantment Under of the Sea dance! They're supposed to go together."
Annie giggled and added, jokingly, "That is if you don't ask Aunt Lorraine to the dance first."
Timmy told her, "Good one, Annie."
The two of them had a high five as I shot them another look. However, I got sidetracked by Annie's gorgeous emerald eyes. I must've been lost in her eyes for a few moments because when I finally got out of it, Doc and Timmy were gone and Annie was waving her hand in front of my face.
I shook my head and Annie said, "Quit daydreaming, Marty. We've got to stay on Uncle George like glue! That's our mission like Doc and Timmy said."
I quickly tried to recover myself and said, "Right, just like Doc and Timmy said! Let's get to work, Annie!"
I took the lead and I saw Annie right behind me. I figured Timmy was trying to tell Doc about his upcoming future. 'Good luck, Timmy. You'll need it,' I thought.
We finally caught up to my father at lunch. He was writing something down and Annie and I joined him.
Annie perked up and asked, "What's that you're writing, George?"
Dad half smiled and answered, "Uh, stories about visitors coming from other planets."
I scoffed and responded, "Get out of town. I didn't know you did anything creative! Can we read it?"
He pulled away and answered, "Uh, no. I don't let anyone read my stories. Besides, what if they told me that I was no good or get out of here kid you have no future. I don't think I could handle that kind of rejection. Guess that's hard for anyone to understand."
I swallowed and answered, "No, no. Not at all. Listen, George. Lorraine is really crazy about you."
Annie nodded and added, "Yeah she wants you to ask her to the dance."
His face fell and responded, "What? Right here and now in the cafeteria? I couldn't. Besides, I think she rather go with someone else."
Annie looked at him and asked, "Who?"
Just as I thought he was going to say me, he pointed behind us, and answered, "Biff."
We spun around and saw Biff holding mom, against her will. I went over to them.
I saw mom slap him and say, "Get your meat hooks off of me."
I forced Biff to let go of her and said, "You heard her. Get your meat hooks off."
Biff got up and I realized that I was in serious trouble.
Biff grabbed me and said, getting a punch ready, "You've been asking for this for awhile."
He stopped and out of the corner of eye, I saw Annie next to Strickland. Biff sort of blushed at Annie and looked badly at Strickland.
He said, letting me go, "I'll let you off with a warning this time, punk. But, if we cross paths again, you'll get it for sure."
He walked away. I turned around as did Annie and we saw dad was gone. Annie shrugged as she came over to me.
She said, sadly, "Sorry, Marty. I saw you in trouble. I had to do something."
I smiled at her and responded, "Don't sweat it, Annie. Let's just find dad."
She nodded in agreement and we ran off to find dad.
It was after school and we met up with him outside of his house.
Annie called him, "George!"
George turned around, saw us, and asked, "Why do you two keep following me? What do you want?"
I answered, "You should ask Lorraine to the dance. If you don't, I will be very upset."
'If I live to see it,' I thought, miserably.
He looked at us and responded, "Look, I don't want to ask Lorraine to the dance and I don't want to miss my favorite program: Science Fiction Theater. There is nothing on this earth that can make me change my mind."
I pulled out my picture as my dad went into his house. Dave's body was half gone.
I mumbled, "Science Fiction Theater."
Annie perked up and asked, "You got a plan, Marty?"
I nodded and answered, "Yup and I'm going to need your help."
Annie asked, "And Timmy?"
I answered, "Leave him with Doc. You as well as I do that we can't take him out past nine o'clock."
Annie responded, "Oh, yeah. That we defiantly learned the hard way."
I smiled.
That night, I got my radiation suit on and pretended to be Dark Vader. Annie was doing sound effects for me, which was pretty decent.
As we headed back to Doc's mansion; I asked her, "Where did you learn to do those sound effects?"
She shrugged and answered, "I was just making it up as I went along. Do you think this is actually worked?"
It was my turn to shrug as I answered, "Guess we'll find out tomorrow."
As we were about to enter Doc's mansion and she asked, "Do you think we should try and tell Doc about the terrorists?"
I nodded and answered, "We've got to try, Annie. For his sake...and for Timmy's."
She nodded in agreement. I wanted to tell her how I felt but I had to get my family back together first. But, I couldn't help but wonder if Timmy had told Doc about his upcoming future.
