" George!" You cry out as you move towards him to grasp him in as you try to catch him into your arms.
He backs away, but your not having any of it. You hug him strong and don't let go with tighten your grip. Not letting him escape your arms. Never thought in your life time, you'd miss someone that much you only knew few days.
" (y/n)? Jim? What are you doing here? " He seems to be surprised to see you but confused and scared at the same time.
You can see from his wide eyes and pure fear.
" Come in," he mumbles, still in shock. He moves to one side of the door to let you in.You take few steps in and Jim follows as he takes the first steps in with hands in his pockets.
He lets you into the house. You look around the familiar place. Walking past all the painting and furniture you so well remember. " Sorry about the mess guys. If I would have known you two turn up again I would have made this place a little more cleaner. " You hear him mumble, as he grabs the few empty food containers and getting rid of them.
You watch as he drops one of them and tried picking it up again. You feel so sorry him, as you walk to go get to help him. As soon as you try to take it he grabs it. " no, I can handle this. " George backs away from you.
You observe him.He looks like a mess.
Messy hair, tied face and smell sweat smell coming from.his direction. You realising his going though a big mental crisis.
Can't blame him.
Once you walking around and next minute you have somehow travelled back in time. This would make you question your whole existence. However you only felt worry over George. He did not look good at all and it was clear stress is getting better of him. There way he looks around carefully and flinched and moves away from any physically contact.
You leave him be as he finalised " Take a seat. " he says. Pointing at the table. " You guys want anything to drink" he nervously asks. " no thanks, " Jim says as you both sit down.
George looking like he is looking for something. Scratching his head. He finally sits down.
"I've suppose you guys came back. I mean I didn't expect it after what happend. " you squint your eyes.
" What happend.?" You ask. He scratches his head more. " You know. The machine thing and all" you think for a moment. You don't recall doing any time travelling with him. Must have been future you " What do you mean?" You ask. You can tell he is getting aggravated.
" Ehhh when you showed me the machine and took me here and left me here. " He said in a shaky scared tone.
" Future us must have done that," Jim said. He is thinking the same thing. Now George looks confused. " what?" He mutters as he rapidly blinks his eyes. You see his eye bags.
You think to your self that loor George looks like he has not been sleeping for days.
" We haven't time travelled with you Jet. It must have been us but from the future. " Jim said. George looks down. " What exactly happend?"
you ask." Well, I was walking to your room to check up in you in Jim's orders but then I saw you standing there. I came up to you asking what you doing out of your room. You said how I have to come with you to somewhere. You take me to one of the storage rooms where Jim is waiting. He takes out the machine. I ask what it is and you said I'll understand in time, but then a bright light then surrounds me. I can't remember much but then I remembered waking up in an empty building. I thought I was going crazy when I was told it is 1977. I stayed there for few nights until a kind woman found me and let me stay with her."
He looks down on the floor.
You try to think of a reason why you'd do that to George. He looks lost and terrified of the first time in his life. " You guys are here to take me back?" Eh you don't know how to answer that. " Emmm well-"
Jim interrupts you." We can't."
George looks disappointed.
You look up to Jim who is making direct eye contact with you. You give him the look of should we tell him. He gives a gentle head shacke saying no. You give a disappointed sad look back at him. Jim gets up from the char, fixes his suit as he swiftly moves both of his hands across his chest, and grabs your hand taking you to the door.George stands up in a rush.
" So what you just gonna leave him here?" You cry out in quick pain as Jim's grips onto your hand.
Jim turns around. " yes" His face is now dumbfounded, shocked, he can't find the right words. " I'm so sorry," you say as Jim carries you out the front door. As you feel him loosening his grip you take the opportunity to pull away. You slip your hand out of his grip fast. As you rub your now sore hand from the pain." What was that all about? We just gonna leave him like that there. Hopeless. You saw how he looked. "
Jim didn't even look at you.
He just kept walking away, with no emotion. Sometimes you think he just turns off his emotions as he looks like a robot. As you try to keep up.
" Jim, I'm talking to you. Don't ignore me." You see as he is keeping being frustrated with you but that doesn't stop you, as you are frustrated with him and want answers.
" We had to. The book said so. We have to leave him here. Never to return. "
You let out a tear at Jim's cruel words as he raised his voice at you.How can he even say that?
