Passions: Through the Television (chapter 9)
So there, in the gazebo, was a body bag. You know, like that the kind you saw on TV? Exactly like those.
I knew I shouldn't look but I felt way to girly like that. So I just grabbed Jacob's hand and turned toward everybody else and the...the...bag. Ew. There is no real way to say this without sounding gross.
Everyone sorta stood there for a mintute. Then Sam said, "Let's not open it here." He said it looking at everyone around, "Let's take it to the lab and have it examined." Sam looked at Luis and said, "We'll go and get Alistair and Julian."
Jacob and I looked at each other. Then Luis came up to us, put each of his hand on each of us as he said, "Listen, I owe you both alot. If you ever need anything-"
"-It's okay." I interuppted, "We wanted to do it."
"But still," Luis finshed, "If you do just ask."
We nodded as Sam and Luis went up to the Crane Manison as Sam's force went and took the body to the lab.
M=Jacob and I walked home and neither of us could speak. Then Jacob said, "What now?"
I shrugged and said, "Well, I have been thinking that myself." I paused and said, "What if we never go back?"
"What?" Jacob asked, confused.
"Home." I answered, "You remember? Where we were born and raised." said it sorta sarcasticly.
"Oh yeah." Jacob said. "I don't miss it."
I nodded and said, "Me neither. But, shouldn't we?"
"Yeah, we should..." We were both confused.
Then I said, "Well look, maybe it would just be better if we think about this."
"Okay, so what are we going to do? Just wait until something happens and we go back?"
"That's just it," I answered, "I don't know. We could be here forever. Plus, we don't even know how to get back if we wanted too."
"Point." Jacob agreed. He thought for a mintute and then asked, "What soda where you drinking when it happened?"
"Sprite." I answered. "Why?"
"I have an idea." Jacob said and then he grabbed my hand and ran over to the local store. He bought a Sprite and said to me, "Up for drinks?"
I smirked and we went back to my place.
We sat on the couch and we both held a un-opened can of Sprite. "So did you say, 'I wish it were real.'?"
"Yep." I answered. "I know what you're thinking. But what if this works and we get back? Will we be able to get back here?"
"I know as much as you." Jacob answered, "Let's just try this. I know, you go first. Take her first sip and go home. Then, when you're home, see where exactly you are and what day it is, etc. Then, take your second sip and see if you can come back."
"Okay." I said. I took a deep breath and said as I took my first sip, "I wish it were-" I paused and instead said, "-not real."

I was back. I stood up and my head turned around to see where I was. I was just as I left. the TV was still on. I looked at my watch to see the day and time and it was amazing. It was the same day as I left, but 5 mintutes after I left.
I heard someone come down the stairs. It was my mom. "Hey hon, how what Passions today? Any good?"
I was breathing hard and I said, "You have no idea."
A few mintutes later my mom left and I carefully said, "I wish it were real." And siped my soda.
-/-/-ZAP!-/-/-
"You're back!" Jacob yelled.
"Yeah..." I said.
"Don't you know? You've been gone for a day!" Jacob asked.
I told him everything that happened and we figured out that 5 mintutes in the real world, equals one day in the Passions world. Freaky.
"So what did I miss?" I asked.
"Well," Jacob started, "Good news, Julian and Alistair, they going down! And you will never believe what's going on in this town! Alistair and Julian are in jail now and they gonna stay there. And Harmony is not even trying to hide it's happiness. They are actually throwing a party tonight! Everyone is saying that it's for the Bennett house being finshed-which is by the way-but everyone knows inside what it's really for. The music is gonna be loud and so will the voices. Party hard!"
"How's Luis?" I asked.
"Only better than ever. He is rejoicing with the rest of us. I looked
up on your laptop and, word is Luis is gonne porpose tonight. So you're just in time."
I smiled when I thought about things, "You looks like I am."
