Back To The Future Part IV: A Famous Journey
Chapter 11: The Unwanted Truth
The Dennis Miller of 1986 lay on the couch of Ace's and David Spade's home. Ace brushed her thumb across his forehead and into his hair. "He's so gorgeous." She said to herself lost in the words. Then a knock is heard at the door.
"Melanie! Open up right now!" It appeared to be her thirty year old brother and scientist, Alex. Ace rushed to the door and opened it. Alex walked in putting his hands on her shoulders and pushing her farther into the house. "What the hell have you done?!" He shouted. "Uh, it's going to take a while to explain." "Hell yeah it is!" Alex looked over to see a younger Dennis Miller lying on the couch. "What have you done?!" He shouted again tugging at his hair. "Do you know what the consequences are of taking the time machine in a certain time and bringing someone back with you?! This is horrible!"
"What? What is it?" "The space time continuum. I forgot to tell you that before. If you bring anyone from a time period not of yours, it could create a paradox and destroy the universe. Of course, that is about a thirty to a fifty percent chance of happening, which did not. If the person you bring back meets his or her younger or older self, you have an eighty to one-hundred percent chance of the universe being destroyed.
Ace gave an uncomfortable chuckle. "Those two things kind of already happened." "What?!" "But nothing happened. They fainted afterwards." Alex fixed his hair. "You are so lucky kid that nothing bad happened." Dennis lying on the couch opened up one eye to see what was going on. "Like the universe being destroyed?" Ace said jokingly. "Listen, he can't stay here any longer. If he does, then the universe will be destroyed. It will happen sooner or later." Ace's eyes narrowed with a sad look. "I'm serious Ace." He added. "When... do you want me to do it?" Alex sighed. "Well, as soon as he gets up. He can take the DeLorean with him because that damn time machine is nothing but a disaster. He must destroy it! If it falls into the wrong hands, then what I have told you is going to happen." "Okay." Ace said her voice cracking.
"Hey check it out! ACDC!" David blasts the radio as ACDC's 'Highway to Hell' plays. "Going down, party time. My friends are gonna be there too. I'm on the highway to hell." Blaze and David sing. The Dennis Miller of 2004 wakes up from the sound of the blaring music. "Hey! What's going on?" Dennis shouts over the loud song. Blaze turns it down. "Hey Dennis! Was sup?" "What the hell is going on?" David and Blaze look at each other in worried faces. "Uh, you fainted from your car breaking down, so we decided to take you home so you can call a tow truck to go get it." "I fainted from my car breaking down? I don't think so." Blaze then continued. "You know when you faint, you forget things." "That's true, but I remember seeing my younger self. Damn that sounds crazy." David and Blaze forced a laugh. "Yeah, it does. It must have been a dream." David said forcing a smile. Soon David pulls up in Dennis' drive way and lets him out. "I'll call you later." Dennis said and he gets out of the car. David pulls out of the drive way and continues driving home. "David, can I ask you something?" Blaze looks into David's ocean eyes like hers. "Yeah?" He replied back. "Will you be my boyfriend?" David looked at her a couple of times. "I'll tell you what, in another three years you got yourself a boyfriend." Blaze's face lit up with Heaven's Light. "Yay!" She hugged David.
"Hey." Dennis said as he got up from lying on the couch. "Hey." Ace said her voice still cracking. "What's wrong babe?" Ace turns and looks at him, her face flooded with tears. "You have to leave now. You have to take the time machine and leave." "Why?" Dennis said almost crying with her. "My brother, the inventor of the time machine said that you have to take it and go back to your time...But you see, I don't want you to go..." Ace continued her voice, cracking worse then before. "When go back, from the minute that you go back, I'm going to see the Dennis I've always seen. I'm not going to see that nice, liberal Dennis who is actually cute; but I have to see that mean, conservative Dennis that's basically unattractive." She pauses then continues. "In my life, I've known you as the biggest asshole that I've ever met in my life. But from the minute that I met you, I realized that you were much more to me." Dennis continued listening to her. "And if you go back, the Dennis that I've always seen, I'm going to look at him and I'm going to see you. And if I think about you, I'll never stop. I'll never stop thinking." Her cracking voice turned into heavy sobs. "When I look into your eyes, I am going to be fooled that it's you, when its not...I really like you a lot Dennis, more than that, I love you so much. You're the perfect friend." Dennis was completely speechless.
"I'm really going to miss you too Ace. You play a big part in my life now. I don't feel so tight anymore like I used to be, you actually loosened the screws, and told me to have fun really. I don't think anyone could have done that except you." Ace smiled as tears fell from her eyes. Look, so that you don't miss me too much, I give you a gift of... well let's say of this new memory. It's not a big deal or anything personal, but I know that especially you and other teenagers like this kind of stuff. Just close your eyes for me babe."
Ace did as she was told and she closed her eyes. Dennis moved in focusing on her and her alone, and he took his unique hands and gently held her head in place. He moved in close locking lips with hers and within time he gave her a long, warm, and deep passionate kiss. Ace opened her eyes in pure amazement. "Dennis Miller kissed me..." She said calmly almost as a whisper. Dennis smiled. "I guess I'll see you in about another eighteen years." Ace nodded as she flooded her face crying deeply. He got into the DeLorean and drove off giving Ace the 'salute' sign. "I love you Dennis Miller!" Were almost the last words she said to him.
