June 2007
It was a warm starry night and a breeze blew through Pickford California, change was in the air it was almost electric and Phil Diffy could feel it. He'd delayed the inevitable for so long. The Time Machine was finally fixed; it only took his father four years to do it. Phil was glad he was able to finish high school before it got fixed but it was still hard knowing that he'd have to leave everything behind, the house, the town and Keely.
Keely Teslow had been his best friend since he'd come to Pickford and they'd been dating for the past year. He didn't want to leave her behind, and he couldn't stay, he didn't belong in that century but he couldn't think of his life without Keely, she completed him.
He lay on a picnic blanket in the park gazing at the stars waiting for her to come over like she always did.
"Hey," her voice drew him from his thoughts.
He sat up unable to hide his emotions any longer; he knew she would be able to tell something was wrong from the look on his face.
"You're leaving aren't you?" she whispered, he could already see tears glistening her eyes.
"In two weeks." He told her.
"So you're not going to go to UCLA with me in the fall?" she asked a tear falling down her cheek.
"Keely, I didn't really apply." He revealed.
"What? You lied to me…" she whispered.
"Keely, I didn't want to but you were so excited about it. I'm sure if I had applied I would have gotten in–"
"You knew you were leaving you knew all along!" she screamed her tears flowing freely.
Phil felt horrible the person he'd loved more than anything was upset with him.
"Keel," He whispered, "I knew you're right I knew, but I didn't want the time we had left to spend together to be all sad and weighed down by tension like it is now."
"You should have told me I'm a big girl Phil."
"I'm so sorry," He said finally aware of his own tears.
"Me too Phil…" she whispered throwing herself into his arms he held her as they both cried.
"We did have the best time this year." Keely managed to smile through her tears.
"Yeah we did. I love you Keely, I love everything about you. And I wish I could be with you forever, but my family has other plans for me. They want me to go to one of the best colleges in the 22nd century." Phil said.
"I love you too Phil…you deserve the best." Keely mumbled into his neck.
"That's why I'm with you." He said kissing her hair.
She picked up her head and smiled at him before kissing him lightly on the lips. It was suppose to be a chaste little peck, but it soon became a fierce passionate kiss. She repositioned herself on his lap before breaking off the kiss and leaving him to want more.
"Wow…" He whispered his eyes still closed resting his forehead on hers.
She kissed him hard cutting off his words, "I want this Phil. I want us, I want show you exactly how I feel about you in a very primal sense."
"Are you saying…?"
"I want to make love Phil." Keely said.
"Are you sure? Why don't you let me take you to dinner tomorrow and afterwards we'll have a whole romantic evening together." He said.
"It has to be now Phil, I'm so scared that you'll leave tonight and I'll never see you again." Keely said on the verge of tears.
Phil had never seen her look so pretty and vulnerable like that before. He could taste her sadness in the last kiss they shared, he wanted to make her happy give her a memory that would last forever.
They done a lot together got into a ton of trouble but they'd never done this, and it was only natural that Phil was nervous.
He kissed her again; he could feel the familiar tingle that ran up his spine every time they touched. The world seemed to melt away; Phil lost himself in Keely's green eyes, her soft skin, and her gentle caresses.
They made love on the soft green grass and ended spending most of the night there; Phil's phone rang at around six waking them before the joggers arrived.
Phil listened at his mother rant, for awhile before promising he'd be home soon and hanging up the phone to find Keely lying on her stomach on the blanket watching him. She looked so good like lying there naked with leaves in her tousled blonde hair, like his personal wood nymph.
"You're beautiful." He whispered.
"You have to go don't you?" she asked.
"Yeah, my mom is pissed and so is your mom, they've been looking for us all night. My phone only gets service when it wants to and I left the Wizard at home so they didn't know where we were." Phil explained.
"My phone is in your car." Keely blushed rolling on to her side giving him an unobstructed view of her body.
"You didn't tell them where we are?" she asked.
"No, but I kinda promised we'd be at my house for breakfast in ten minutes." Phil said, "And also Hackett should come strolling through on his morning jog in about five minutes."
"Well I guess we'd better get dressed." Keely said.
"As much as I hate that idea of you putting on your clothes ever, ever again. I'm gonna have to agree." Phil said.
"I don't want Hackett to see me naked." Keely said pulling on her skirt and boots, before looking around for her bra.
Phil smiled and started to get dressed himself.
As soon as they walked into his house, the yelling started. Phil had been ready for it, he held fast to Keely's hand the whole time.
The two weeks that followed were the best of his life. The day the family boarded the Time Machine Phil had definite second thoughts about going back to the future. Keely was too upset about the whole thing and her mother wouldn't even let her out of the house. He knew he had to go. His future was in 2125; even if he left his hear in 2007.
