Marty's POV

I was about to go to Doc's place when the phone rang. I answered, "Yo, McFly residents!" A beautiful female voice asked, "Marty, is that you?" My heart skipped a beat. I responded, "Annie, is that you?" Annie giggled and answered, "Do you know anyone else that knows that we got locked in a library for twelve hours and we almost froze to death?" I scratched my chin at that. I responded, "You had and go to bring that up?" Annie giggled even more. Annie said, "Yup, it gets you every time. Just be lucky that Doc knew that we were there." I sheepishly giggled and responded, "You got that right." I asked, "How did it go with your dad?" She answered, "Believe or not, dad was cool with it! I guess either Cosmo was being a total idiot or Timmy was covering for us."

I responded, "I think it's a little bit of both." We both laughed and Annie asked, "Have you told your parents that you were Calvin Klein?" I laughed out of embarrassment and answered, "Not yet but I will once I get the chance." Annie sighed and snapped, "Martian Seamus McFly, you better tell them or I'll come back there and kick your ass!" I responded, jokily, "Then, I better not tell them because I really miss you, Annie." Annie's voice softened as she responded, "I miss you too." There was a pause between the two of us and we, eventually, said in unison, "I love you." I smiled and I heard Annie giggle a little.

She said, "I hope to see you as soon the New Year is over." I responded, "I hope so, Annie." With that, I hung up on her. My parents came into the room. Dad asked, "Who was that on the phone?" Mom asked, "Was it Annie?" I nodded and responded, "Yeah it was." I turned to them and added, "Mom, dad. There is something else that I have to tell you." Mom and dad both perked up and I told them, "I'm Calvin Klein, the student who was in school for a week back in 1955 and Annie was Amie Kuhn."

Dad perked up and asked, "That was you and Annie? I base my book on that whole experience!" Mom also perked up and responded, "I had no idea that I was crushing on my future son!" I sheepishly laughed at that. Mom turned to me and said, "Martian Seamus McFly, promise me that you will never endanger our family ever again." I smiled and told her, "I won't, I promise." They both giggled a little as I sighed. I dug into my pockets and got out a black box.

I opened it and there was Annie's engagement ring. I had gotten this after Thanksgiving. Dad perked up and asked, "You were planning on proposing to her on Christmas, weren't you?" I answered, "Yeah but this trip put a monkey wrench into my plans…." That's when an idea crossed my mind and I added, "Or maybe not." Mom perked up and asked, "What are you planning to do, Marty?"

I answered, "Simple, mom. I'm planning to ask Doc if it is okay if I can use the De Lorean to time travel to Tokyo to ask Uncle Robert if I could ask for Annie's hand in marriage." Dad and mom both smiled at my idea. Dad responded, "That's a great idea, Marty." Mom asked, "Think Doc will help?" I shrugged and answered, "I hope so. I'll ask him next week. I've got meet the band!" With that, I headed out to Rick's house. I knew what I had to do but how was I going to do it?
