KATIE, ERIC, TRIP AND LUCAS
Katie, Trip and Eric were down at the race track to watch one of Lucas' races. "Why aren't Jen and Wes joining us?" Katie asked. "They wanted to spend some time alone." Eric said. "They haven't seen each other in a few years." "I'd want as much time alone as I could get were I in their shoes. Afterall Wes and Eric's time here is limited." Trip said. "Hey guys!" Lucas called out. "Lucas!" Katie exclaimed. "I got you down with my pit crew. So you can see the race up close and personal!" "Awesome!" Trip yelled. They followed Lucas. "Just you wait until you see Lucas go. He's awesome!" Trip said. "I've seen all his first place trophies, I got a pretty good idea." Eric said.
WES AND JEN
Jen was packing a bag for the day and change of clothes for later. Towels. Sunscreen. Sunglasses on her head. She was ready. "You all set Wes?" Jen called out. "Yep I'm sunscreened and ready for sand and ocean." Jen laughed. She leaned in and gave him a kiss. "Another perk of living here the beach is just across the street." "Of course it is." Wes said laughing.
The beach was full of people, Locals and vacationers. The waves crashed against the shore, the ocean was majestic. Lifeguards sat in towers watching across the shore. "So how are the ocean in the year 3005?" Wes asked. "They've all been cleaned up from the pollution of the 20th and 21st century." Jen said. "Very nice. I love swimming in the ocean back home and also the pool at my dad's mansion." "So I take you just love swimming period." "Yep." "Race you." Jen said with a smile on her face. Jen quickly stripped down to her black and pink bikini and Wes got his shirt off and they raced for the water. Jen was ahead of Wes but then he sprinted forward and was in the water before he. He dived under getting soaked and popped up cheering his victory. Jen splashed him. He grabbed her and dunked her, she reached up grabbed him by the head and pulled him under with her. They both popped up laughing. Jen wrapped her arms around Wes's neck, he had his arms around her waist. They leaned in and kissed each other passionately. "The last few weeks here with you Jen. Spending time with you, sleeping next to you, fighting beside you. It's been heaven. It's been what I had been longing for since the last time you boarded that time ship." "I know the feeling Wes. I've never been so caught up in such happiness since you came here." She leaned in and hugged him tight.
KATIE, TRIP, ERIC, AND LUCAS
Katie, Trip, and Eric cheered as the race cars took off for their first lap and Lucas was already in the lead. "Go Lucas!" Katie yelled. "Alright I have to admit, 2005 or 3005 this up close and personal, this is awesome!" Eric said.
Lucas came around for another lap, they cheered as he passed them.
"Look at him, he's kicking butt!" Trip said. "You think he could win this?" Eric said. "Oh yeah!" Katie said. He passed by again as the crowd cheered.
Shortly. They were all the bar celebrating Lucas' first place trophy. Filling it up with beer and everyone taking a drink from it.
WES AND JEN
They were out to dinner at a fancy restaurant. Wes was wearing a dress shirt and pants, Jen a sleek black form fitting dress. "It seems life here isn't that drastically different from the 21st century." Wes said. "Other than the technology." Jen said. "True, it's been amazing, I mean if I could bring some of this stuff back to the 21st century we could leap years ahead with computers." "Yep, you still have another 2 years before the smartphone hits the market." "The what?" "You'll see."
After dinner they went back to her place. "Skylight." Jen said. The ceiling opened and big full moon shined brightly in the apartment. "Come here and dance with me Wes." Jen said. "Stereo play Perry Como "Till the end of time." The song began to play. Wes took Jen's hand into his and wrapped his other hand around her waist. He pulled close and they began to slow dance. "Great choice in song, fits with that whole time traveling theme that is our life." Jen chuckled. She rested her head on his shoulder. Wes gently spun them around and continued dancing. The song ended and that's when Wes made his decision. "Jen I have something I want to give you." He pulled out the diamond ring. "Wes, oh my God." Jen's eyes began to fill with tears. "Even if we never see each other again after this is all over. I would love it knowing you were wearing this ring." "Jen, yes, I'll wear it. When I die, I'll be buried with it." Wes put the ring on her finger. "God Wes. I love you so much." "I love you too Jen." He kissed her deeply. Jen took his hand and lead him to the bedroom and closed the door.
