Changing times

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the both sides of time characters Caroline B. Cooney owns them                                   

Authors note: I changed their ages a little bit I change it to Annie being a senior in high school and Strat was the same age as her in the book she was a junior I believe

                                                                       Strat Thought he should be happy livening in Spain away from his father Hiram Stratton, who had put him in an insane asylum because he was in love with a girl named Annie Lockwood. He also rescued Katey and Douglass from the insane asylum. Katey had a deformed face and Douglass had mental disabilities. They now have help and are not discriminated as they used to be. But he was livening in the wrong time and the wrong century.

            He needed her really bad. But he had to leave her so he could run away and she had to stay in her own time. She had saved him she had even risked her life for him. He loved her more than anything he would only hope that he could see her travel to his time. He loved her more than anything and she loved him back. He waited five long years to get over her and move on but oh that was too impossible. He knew it was time to travel to her. She couldn't live here she had family. Sure Strat had family but the only family to him was his sister Devonny and his mother. Devonny was probably married off and she and his mother probably thought he was dead. He knew that he had to find her.

            The problem was getting to her. How would he ever find Annie Lockwood? He did not even have any money or clothes from her time sure he had clothes but she lived a hundred years later than him. He had to find a way to get to her. Even though what if the portal wont even open. He was going to find a way to get to Annie Lockwood if it was the last thing he was going to do.

            Annie missed Strat a lot. A century was between them literally. He was her one and only true love. She did not even go out with anyone since the time she had left Strat. She did not even go to the prom with a date she went dateless. She was getting sick of her parents asking about why she had never been in a relationship since Sean (they never knew about Strat). It was true love that she had felt for Strat. She had missed his polite ways and being called Anna Sophia. He was polite but very romantic. She went to college for twentieth century history the closet way of being with him. She had search record after record for him but no luck he said he is in Egypt but she could not find him. She was at home for the week at Stratton Point. She had found herself at the old Stratton Mansion site a lot the closet to Strat, Thinking about him all the time. Even if she could go back in time she would have to go from Stratton mansion and she could be thrown in the insane asylum if someone recognized her. Even then she wouldn't know where to look for him. She thought she was going to have to tell Tod her brother about Strat because he had time traveled and met Strat sister Devonny and She mentioned Strat and Annie being together. She had to tell him soon.

            "Annie would you tell me what was up with you and Devonny Brother"?

            " I guess but you must keep it a secret I don't want anybody o know especially mom and dad they must never know. He was Devonny's brother. I traveled back in time and met him. He was very polite and everything I fell in love with him, but I cannot accept the fact that we could never be together. I mean I don't even know where to look for him I have know clue. Sorry that is all I can say. You met Devonny what did you think of her did you ever have a thing for Devonny."

            "Not really she was a good friend she was quite interesting person I kind of miss her I guess."

            "Tod Annie we are home" shouted mom and dad.

            " We will talk late Tod."

So much to do so little time her business was taking the week off and of course her mom and dad found out about her vacation and they wanted her home. The funny thing now was that she never got along with her brother more when she found out he had time traveled and had met Devonny. She had to get away from her parents when she got out of college so she got an apartment even though it was small it helped. She never really forgave her dad anyway for cheating on her mom even though they got back together. She knew she should skip dinner with her parents because she knew they were going to hoard her about her love life. The only love she could ever have was Strat. Oh how she missed every thing about Strat. She missed the kisses they had shared, they were so romantic. She missed the care that Strat had treated her with and everything Strat was. She was breaking down; she knew she could ever love anyone again.

~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*~~~~~*

            Strat probably at night dreamed about Annie every night. He woke up tonight about her. He missed stroaking his fingers through her hair. He missed the feeling they shared when they kissed and wanting to do more than kiss her. He had never heard of a feeling like that before. He loved her more than anything and he could not forget about her. He knew he had to go find her. He has no more for his century he knew Kate and Douglass would be fine he had to find her and find her soon.
