Chapter one
A Breakfast In The 80's"Ma'am can you hear me?"
Paige awoke from her rest, frantic, she looked around her to see a man, tall, handsome, dreamy, he gave Paige a hand and pulled her up
"Hey! Peter Hawkins, what brings a fine lady here lying on the streets?" Peter. Charming, Paige stared into his eyes, blue and wide, deep and dark like the ocean, she could feel as if her cheeks started to get red, just staring at him made her helpless
"Hey Ma'am?"
"O-Ohh! yeah, uhh, Mary Keystone" She said slightly startled from him breaking her gaze
"You seem a bit hungry, wanna grab a snack? you know? my treat?" Peter asked
"OH YES!" Paige said in a shouting manner, the both became silent before bursting into laughter
"Haha... I mean, sure, let's grab something to eat" Paige said after laughing
Paige and Peter walked down the sidewalk, watching a few cars pass. Peter rambled about who he was, Paige was immersed, she loved every second, from his favorite color to the story of his parents giving him his name
"Oh looks like we've made it, come on in"
She walked inside the diner, it glowed with the bright light of neon signs that were scattered around the room, the pink seats contrasted from the black and white checkered floors, as Take On Me played in the background from jukebox, they walked towards a seat, as they got comfy
"Uhh, so uhm- wh- what time is it?" Paige asked, confused but fascinated at the same time
"It's 10:00 am, why?" Peter asked with a light chuckle
"Uhh yeah... and what year is it?" Paige said as her eyes scrambled at the items in the diner
"It's 1984, April 1st" Peter said confused "Why did you ask?"
Paige's eyes widened, she was immensely shocked at the news
"And so uhh, where am I right now?"
"You're in California, you know? USA?" Peter said in a condescending tone
"Ohh yeah, I uhh- I remember hahahaa.." Paige said awkwardly, realizing she's the only one who actually experienced her disappearance
"Cool...." Peter said, trying to disguise his bewilderedness
A waiter who looked to be in her late 30's walked towards them with a menu in her hand, she smiled at the look of seeing the joy between Paige and Peter, almost feeling a little jealous
"Hey kiddos" She said with a sassy tone "What will the two lovebirds be having for today?" She said as she looked at Peter in a sly way
"Wh-What?" Paige blurted out, as she started getting red, not from infatuation, but from how awkward and embarrassing the experience was to her
"Ohh uhh, I'd like The Scrambled Eggs with Bacon please" Peter said "Uhh Mary? what about you?"
"Ohh uhh, I'd have the same" she said sheepishly
"Cool lemme ring you up your orders" The waitress expressed as she trotted towards a different table
Silence uncomfortably ensued as the two were stuck in an awkward standstill, listening to Beat It By Michael Jackson playing from the Jukebox
"So uhhmm Mary?" Peter said trying to break the silence "I've talked about myself for so long now, what about your deal?"
"Oh, umm.." Paige began to panic "I uhh, well you s-see" She started to sweat profusely "Uhhhh I am Mary Keystone"
"Uhh okay?" Peter said, confused whether he was talking to the girl of his dreams or some chick straight out from the asylum
"Sorry, heh, I got a little panicky, well I don't know how I got here, I remember leaving my parents house after we argued and then the rest it a blur" she lied, she tried to play it cool but it was slipping through her teeth how much of a bad liar she is
"Oh okay"
A humongous wave of relief washed on the heart of Paige knowing that she wasn't as pathetic as she thought she was at lying, she let out a huge sigh before looking around at the Diner
"Here you go sweeties enjoy Mama's Home style breakfasts! hope y'all like 'em, you better" she stated in a joking manner, then turning around to carry the other tray to the other tables. The savory smell of eggs danced in the aroma of the sweet tender smell of freshly sizzled bacon, it intertwined and danced on the air in between the two, making them feel incredibly hungry
"Well? let's dig in!" Peter said excitingly
"Hell yeah!" she rejoiced
They both gobble down on the breakfasts, especially Paige, who knew Time Jumps could be so??? exhausting! She felt her body tingle from the goodness of eating food, the same feeling you get after eating something delicious after two days of fasting
"yeah" she said in her mind
"yeah I think I'll like it here"
"So this is your place?"
