.: Author's .:. Note :. Here it is: The sequel to Stuck in the Future! Okay so first off: If you haven't read SITF, I highly suggest you do so… and there should be an update on Dance with Me soon. If you don't read the prequel to this, you will be highly confused. Okay, well, let's see, what else? Oh! If you don't feel like reading all of Stuck in the Future, read the epilogue at least… please? Okay so: On with the story
Olivia 'Liv' Thurston, Catherine 'Catie' Fonda, and Nicole 'Nicky' Scranton stood outside of Lise Summerfield's house.
"Liv, ring the doorbell please?" Nicky asked her friend.
"Sure." Olivia reached out and rang the doorbell.
In a moment, Lise was at the door.
"Happy Birthday!" Nicky, Catie, and Olivia exclaimed.
"Hi guys. Um, we may have an, er, situation."
"Please don't tell me you still believe in Harry Potter and you've heard rapping at the windows," Liv said.
"No! Though that would be cool. Liv, think fifth grade."
"Oh no. Not Narnia! You were kidding when you told me you had gone right?"
"Well, not exactly. But I need your help."
"I'm up for it," Catie said.
"As am I," Nicky added.
"Count me in, but if you're lying…"
"I'm not. Come on in," Lise said, and opened the door.
"Can we eat yet? I'm starved," Eustace pleaded once they were in.
"No, we need to open all of these presents first."
"Okay. So, cue music, Lecia. Ashlee Simpson I Am Me. I love that one."
So Lecia played the music and Lise started to open her presents. She mostly got new clothes, books, and CD's. She left her letters to open later.
Then, all eleven of them sat down to eat breakfast at the dining room table.
"Lise! This food is Narnian!" Lucy exclaimed.
"Yeah. I know."
"How ever did you get the recipes?" Susan asked.
"I spent some time in the kitchen, as you all know, and wrote them down in my composition book."
"And you had everything?" Edmund asked.
"Well, I substituted a few things. Like no meat."
"Ten years in Narnia yet still no meat, I don't get it," Peter said.
Lise smiled.

When everyone was finished, Lise cleared away the plates. Then, Liv, Catie, and Nicky had to leave, leaving Lecia and Lise to spend the rest of the day with the Narnians.
"So, we need to enroll you in school. Well just Jill and Eustace. But you are here to stay so a fake letter won't do it this time."
"Aslan said we'd have everything we need," Jill pointed out.
"Then we must register you," Lecia decided.
"I don't think that'll be necessary. Aslan said they'd have everything that means they're probably already registered," Lise told her.
"You are right, but how will they get there?"
"Land Rover, maybe?" Lise asked.
"Oh. Okay, because everyone will be driven in a Land Rover by a famous member of Love. That'll work perfectly," Lecia said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Then the bus. You two are okay with the bus, right?"
"I think so. They're not here are they?" Eustace asked cautiously.
"No. The school is coeducational but not totally without punishment. There's expulsion, suspension, detention, and more."
"So they're not?"
"No. Adela Pennyfather and her stupid little followers are old people now."
"How'd…?"
"I read. Your adventures are a book now. Remember that C. S. Lewis person?"
"Yeah, he asked us all sorts of queer things," Eustace noted.
"He was a friend of Professor Kirke's right?" Susan asked.
"I think so. Anyway, he used the things he learned from you to write a book on your adventures. Well a whole series of seven chronicles really."
"Really? That book you showed to us in Narnia, but would never let us read?" Lucy inquired.
"Yes, that book."
"Queer," Edmund said.
"Oh and about that. Say 'weird' instead of 'queer' now."
"Why?"
"Well you want to fit in, don't you?"
"Yeah,"
"Just say it."
"Okay. Who's up for ice cream cake?"
Everyone wanted some, so Lise led them to the kitchen and got the huge ice cream cake out of the freezer and thawed it out for a bit. Then, she gave everyone a slice. Eustace and Jill agreed that it was most delicious (the rest had had it before).
They then watched movies until Jill wanted to go to sleep. Then, Eustace decided that it would be a good idea to get Jill some presents.
So, Lecia stayed home to make sure Jill didn't get up, and the others went shopping.

The next day, Jill woke up to find that everyone was already downstairs. Except for Eustace, Jill knew because she could hear him snoring. She decided to wake him up.
She got up, got dressed, and knocked on Eustace's door.
The snoring stopped.
"Eustace, get up."
"Huh?"
"Get up, or I will open the door," Jill said to him.
The only response was a snore.
"I'm coming in," Jill warned.
She opened the door, and found Eustace asleep.
"Eustace get up!"
"Wha- Jill! Bloody Hell! What are you doing in here?"
"Is that my happy birthday wish?"
"No, no, Happy Birthday, Jill. Now can I go back to sleep?"
"No, you have to get up and get dressed."
"With you in here?"
"Eww, no. I'll wait outside."
"Alright then."
"You'd better stay up," Jill said and then walked out of the room.
Eustace watched her leave, her shoulder-length and dark blonde hair flowing behind her. She closed the door.
She looks beautiful today.
He shook his dark brunette head.
"Why'd I just think that?" He asked himself aloud.
"Are you changing?" Eustace heard Jill's voice from the other side of the door.
"Yeah, one minute."
He quickly got dressed and opened the door.
"Let's go downstairs then?" Eustace asked.
"Alright," Jill responded and the two walked downstairs together.
