𝑊𝘩𝑎𝑡 𝐼𝑓... Wilbur Robinson

11

The next morning, Wilbur brought [Y/N] back to the past, exactly the day she had left, so nobody would notice it. The plan was that, the next day, [Y/N] would leave normally for school, giving her the rest of the day to say goodbye to everyone. 

She went back to her room, where Goob was sitting in the little table. She sat next to him.

-Where were you?- Goob asked -With your boyfriend?-

-He's not my boyfriend, I already told you.- they both laughed -But you're right, I was with him...- 

There was silence for a couple minutes, [Y/N] wanted to tell Goob about the future, but she wasn't sure. What if he didn't believe her?

-Why are you looking at me like that?- Goob said suddenly

-Uh?... Nothing, I just...- she sighed -I'll run away.-

-You what? Was it Wilbur's idea?

-No, Goob, I found my parents!- she said, Goob was shocked -I'm going to live with them.-

-Are you sure?

-I'll be ok, don't worry about me.- [Y/N] said -I promise to visit you as soon as I can, okay?-

-Okay, just don't do anything stupid.

The next morning, [Y/N] and Goob were getting ready for school. [Y/N] packed her clothes and some other important stuff on her backpack. She looked around, there were so many memories in her mind, she was going to miss this place very much, it was her home after all. A couple of tears rolled down her cheeks.

-Don't be sad, you'll see this place again.- Goob dried her tears 

-I really hope so...

-Come on, we have to go.

They went downstairs, Mildred was making herself some coffee. Another thing [Y/n]'ll miss, the smell of coffee as she was leaving for school.

-Bye Mildred- Goob waved goodbye as he left

-Be careful.- Mildred said, and [Y/N] hugged her as tightly as she could. -[Y/N], is everything ok?-

-Sure, I'm fine.- [Y/N] splitted the hug -Thanks for everything, thanks for finding me when I was lost.-

-It's nothing- Mildred smiled and ruffled [Y/N]'s hair.

[Y/N] left, she crossed the door. Wilbur and Goob were waiting for her outside. [Y/N] and Goob joined in a tender hug.

-I'm going to miss you.- [Y/N] said

-Me too.- they splitted and Goob looked at Wilbur -Take care of her, ok?-

Goob left to school, leaving [Y/N] and Wilbur alone.

-Ready?- she nodded and they walked behind the building, where the red time machine was.

The flew to the future, being very close to [Y/N] 's house, Wilbur turned aside.

-Wait, were are we going?

He said nothing and continued to drive. They arrived to a big house, nothing familiar to [Y/N], they parked and went out of the machine. Wilbur still said  nothing.

They rang the doorbell, a tall man with opened and, as soon as he saw [Y/N], he was shocked.

-Wilbur, what's going on?- she asked in confusion

-[Y/N], let me introduce you to Michael Yaggoobian; in the future.

The girl became shocked as well, she never thought she would see him again.

[...]

-I waited for some message since you left, but there was no way. What seemed like minutes to you were actually years for me. It wasn't until I heard about Cornelius's time machine and his neighboor's missing child that I realized it was you. You belong here.- They were sitting on a big livingroom. Goob's house was almost as big as Wilbur's.

-And, what happened at the past? Did someone noticed me escaping?

-Everyone did. Lewis, Franny and some other people from school came later to the orphanage searching for you. Mildred was really worried, we searched for you for weeks, but of course we couldn't find you. I had to pretend I knew nothing about you, or they would kill me.- Goob sighed -I was really worried for you, I've been for years. I'm really glad to see you again, [Y/N], I've been missing you.-

-I missed you too, for like five minutes.- [Y/N] hugged Goob, they both laughed

-I'd hate to spoil the moment, but, Beatrice and Jack are waiting for us.- Wilbur said

-Oh, right.- they all got up from the couch  -It was really nice to see you, Goob.-

-It was nice to see you too. You already know where I live, so, you're welcome here anytime you want to visit.

-I will, that's for sure

Wilbur and [Y/N] waved with their hand as they drifted away in the time machine. Next stop, home.
