"Hey." Jesse said. Isn't it just too perfect that he picks me up from school?
"Hey." I replied. I wrapped my arm in Jesse's toned one. Then, as we were walking to his car, guess who appeared? Yes Paul.
" What a happy couple." He said. But I have to say, it was pretty damb creepy how he came out of the shadows like he did.
"Slater." Man, Paul really knew how to piss Jesse off.
"Oh, so Rico you know then?" Jesse kept a straight face.
"Know what?"
"Oh, so you don't then!" Paul's face twisted into a sick smile.
"Susannah, what is he talking about?" Jesse looked my way. Uh oh.
"Nothing. There isn't anything to tell…now Jesse, lets go." I tugged on his arm, but he didn't budge. So I released myself from his grip.
" It appears Miss.Simon has been keeping a secret from us both. You see De Silva, Suze here has changed the past." He looked into my eyes. " Our past." My boyfriend then changed his gaze to my direction.
"Is that true?" I took a deep breath, and closed my eyes.
"Yes." Jesse held me hand.
"Susannah, what did you change?" Paul appeared to be very upset about the whole 'Jesse not mad' thing.
"Your not mad!" He yelled. "If I was her guy, I'd be pissed!"
"That's exactly why we are together." Jesse replied, still looking at me.
"Well, Jesse, maybe we should talk in private?"
"No!" Paul was mad about that thought. Not surprising.
"Paul, shut up." I said.
"No Susannah, as much as I hate to say it, Pasul has every right to know what you did."
"Jesse, he is the one who-" I was going to say ' broke into my bedroom' but I didn't want to start a blood bath. So instead, I finished it differently. "- I don't want to know!"
Jesse looked at me. His eyes were so pretty, so inviting.
" Fine, Fine. All right… that night a few days ago, when I said I was sick? I wasn't. I had changed time, so that you would never had the chance to ask me to marry you, and then my parents wouldn't have forbidden me to see you, and then I wouldn't have told them I was a mediator, and went over to Paul's, and…" I practically spit out the next part. " hugged him. Ugh. And then we wouldn't have broken up! So you see, I love you and that's wh I changed time." Phew, I took in a deep breath.
"Well.." Jesse said, "Querida, that's all?" I nodded.
"Then, I think we should go get something to eat, come on." He winked at me. Winked. Weird huh?
"Hold up, no one is mad that she lied, and changed time1?"
"No." Jesse said. I almost laughed. I mean really, how nice of Jesse. We then walked away, his arm wrapped romantically around my waist, while we were listening to Paul sware.
"Jesse… I love you." He kissed my forehead.
"I love you too."
"So, its really no big deal?" He shook his head. "Why not?"
"Well, I got the answer I wanted."
"Huh?"
" You would marry me."
