"J-Jesse?" She stuttered, pointing to me, and then to my body I was dragging.
"You-him-back-same…" She stuttered nervously.
"Look, Susannah, Querida, I am from the future. I am the future Jesse. I had to get rid of the Jesse in the present so that I could save you." I said, throwing my body into the closet.
"Save Me?" She asked. "I'm in trouble?"
"Well…" I started, but Paul cut me off.
"Yes." He finished for me.
"I am??? HOW????!!?!??!" She practically screamed.
"Can you keep it down?" I hushed her. "You, right now, are about to get into a car accident when driving to go and pick up Jim and I pizza."
"Will I die?" She emphasized the word die.
"No, but right now, you have a small amount of Cancer in your body."
She gasped and felt her stomach, and face.
"Somehow, the cancer just got bigger by you getting into that car accident."
"Ugh, Hurry Up lovebirds! I gotta get back home and call my girlfriend, Kelly." Paul groaned, taking a swig of the coke.
"And I die of cancer?" She asked, leaning up against the wall.
I nodded my head.
"So you came all the way back in time just to save me from dying from cancer?" She asked.
"Susannah, you're the love of my life, the light at the end of the tunnel, the person that gave me the chance to live again. Susannah, You've made me look forward to something every day. If I can not save you, I'll die for you." I said, grabbing her by the shoulders and looking into those beautiful emerald green eyes.
"Oh Jesse." She whispered, as she ran into my arms and rubbed my back.
Paul broke us apart.
"We better move now." He said, and he grabbed my hand, and pulled me away, when I was stopped by Jim.
"Jess! Let's order some pizza man! I got this AWESOME pizza parlor that opened up just a couple of exits away! Oh hey Suze, I already ordered the pizzas, I hope you like pepperoni and sausage!" He rambled "Hey! Suze! You can get the pizzas for us! Jesse has to help me with doctor work anyways so….." I cut him off.
"No, I'll go and get them." I said, walking towards the exit.
"Dude, Jesse, you can't leave. You have to help me with something!" He called.
Think Jesse, Think quickly. Then it hit me.
"Paul!" I screamed.
"Huh?" He said, taking a swig of the coke.
"Go get the pizza."
"Huh? Whatever." Paul said, walking out the door.
I followed Jim into a patients room, after quickly giving Susannah a kiss on the cheek.
About a half an hour later, I gave Susannah the medicine that would get rid of the cancer.
After an x-ray, it seemed to be doing the trick.
I was so happy, but I was wondering what was taking Paul so long.
Then I heard sirens buzz, and an ambulance coming to the hospital.
"Jess, it's my work break, you have to take this one." Jim said, patting me on the back and leaving.
"Hey, What have we got here?" I asked one of the medical professionals.
"He got into a car accident." He responded. "We gotta get him medical help pronto, or he may die."
I glanced down at the person on the stretcher, and then gagged and took a step back, my heart beating harder then ever.
Paul was laying on the stretcher.
I ran him into the room, hoping to save him. After about 10 minutes, his whole body stopped moving, and I bent my head down and cursed in Spanish.
Paul was dead.
I had just changed the future.
And there was nothing I could do about it.
