I'll Miss You

By houdinicat3

A/N: Ok first of all I'm sorry about the last chapter/author note. It's just that RICA really ticked me off because they obviously didn't read my ended author's note which implied that there was more to come. And the second thing is I don't know what I was thinking! I meant to put in the flashback and completely closed the door to put it in. I had it all worked out in my head.The problem was that it couldn't fit in the story unless something had changed. So I think that this is the best way to put it in. Don't get mad at me if it doesn't work well. Just tell me and I'll do some rearranging. So here is the next chapter and the FLASHBACK!

Suddenly, Keely woke up at her computer. She saw the conversation that she was having with Phil. For the past 10 messages Phil had been asking her if she was there. She had to scroll up to find her last message "Oh, Phil!" So she hadn't gone to his house and hugged him. She could live with that. One thing that she couldn't live with was the heartbreak, again. What if he didn't feel this way for too long. Or maybe the Time Machine would get fixed. She couldn't bring herself to start anything with him if he would have to leave and break her heart. Keely remembered when she wrote that letter.

FLASHBACK (YAY! Well no it's sad. Oh well.)

Phil had left her standing at the tennis court. Keely was speechless. She couldn't believe that Phil was leaving. Keely rushed home in tears. She ran to her room and pulled out a piece of paper. She had to tell him before he left. She just had to. How would she write it?

"Dear Phil, I love you so don't move." How pathetic would that have been. 'I have to start with something normal.' So she wrote,

Dear Phil,

I know that you're going any day now (she knew that he was moving the next day but it hurt less to write it like this.) and I'll slowly move on. It's going to be hard because I love and you know that I want you to stay. (wow, that came out fast.) It's hard to say goodbye.

(she was really going to miss him.)

We have grown so close.

(Keely remembered all of the time that they had spent together. The first time they met she was popular and Tia didn't want to hang out with him. She eventually changed her mind.)

I just want you to know that I'll miss you. I'll miss you and will always want to be with you.

(Keely remembered the tomato fight. That was the day that she learned that he was from the future. She was so shocked. From then on she had an even bigger appreciation for him and always worried that the time machine would work again.)

I love you ,Phil. No, it's not the best friend love. I knew ever since we met that I had feelings for you.

(Keely remembered the time when Phil got jealous that she liked Tanner. She didn't feel the same way about Tanner as she did Phil. Tanner was a jerk and Phil was an amazing person.)

I never knew that they would be this strong. I love you with my entire heart and wish that you felt the same way.

(She loved him so much.)

Love,

Keely

She had just finished the letter when her phone rang. She wiped away her tears and answered it.

Keely: Teslow Residence. Keely speaking.

Phil: Keely, it's Phil.

Her heart skipped a beat. Maybe he felt the same way and was going to tell her.

Phil: I have a plan.

Maybe not.

Keely: What do you mean?

Phil: I have a plan to get the pudding dispenser back.

Keely: Oh, that's great! And you called because you want me to help?

Phil: You bet! Ok I'm coming over your house now and I'll tell you the plan there.

Keely: Ok, I'll be up in my room. My parents aren't home so you can just come in with your key.

Phil: Great! Bye.

Keely: Bye.

Maybe she wouldn't need the letter after all. She tucked it away with her candy stash and left it there for the next 4 years.

End of Flashback

Back to the IM conversation.

TheGiftOfMusik: hi, PD-rom07. what's life been doing to ya?

PD-rom07: I just found out that the girl that I love feels the same way 4 me

TheGiftOfMusik: so what's the problem?

PD-rom07: well she's my best friend and I just talked to her online. She seems really angry at me for some reason. Damn it! That probably is Phil! I'll just make sure.

TheGiftOfMusik: did she tell u that she loved u or did u read a letter that she wrote 2 u and stuffed in her underwear drawer? Oops! I swear that just slipped out!

PD-rom07: excuse me? How did u know that? Who is this? Oh no he's catching on!

TheGiftOfMusik: oh look at the time! Sorry I have to go. I'll talk to u l8r.

PD-rom07: is this keely? I couldn't respond I just sat there not signing off.

PD-rom07: keely?

TheGiftOfMusik: Phil, I'm soooo sorry 4 getting mad u. I was just upset because I thought that u would never feel the same way! Phil, I'm sorry. I started to cry again.

PD-rom07: keely, it's ok. I should b sorry. I shouldn't have read the letter in the first place. I love you too.

TheGiftOfMusik: oh Phil!

PD-rom07: Keel, was that a good 'oh, Phil!' or a bad 'oh, Phil!' ?

PD-rom07: Keely?

PD-rom07: was that good or bad

PD-rom07: Keely?

PD-rom07: Earth to Keely

PD-rom07: would u please answer me

PD-rom07: fine just ignore me

PD-rom07: when I say just ignore me I mean respond!

PD-rom07: keely please talk to me

PD-rom07: keely, I love you and really want you to talk to me.

PD-rom07: please keely.

TheGiftOfMusik: what do you want me to say

she said finally. She didn't want another heartbreak. She just couldn't go out with him.

PD-rom07: maybe something reassuring like 'oh, Phil!' was a good thing or maybe that u still love me

TheGiftOfMusik: so u want 2 know if I still love u

PD-rom07: well, yes

TheGiftOfMusik: Phil, it just… well…

PD-rom07: well what? Just tell me

TheGiftOfMusik: I can't go out with u

PD-rom07: why not? I mean it's ok if u don't love me anymore but we're still friends, right?

Keely could tell that she hurt him. He had hurt her before.

TheGiftOfMusik: Phil, I'm sorry. I just don't know what 2 think

PD-rom07: well, ok then, I have 2 go um… help my mom with dinner.

Phil then signed off. Keely felt even worse than before. She didn't know what to do.
