It didn’t work. After everything it didn’t work.
I rushed to Amy’s house the following morning but much to my surprise she wasn’t there. Neither were her parents. I called her on everything, texted her but she didn’t reply. I even tried her worldwide numbers but it didn’t go through.
It didn’t work.
And I was all alone.
School started and sure enough she wasn’t there either. The days passed by as they usually did, with the same people saying the same things at the same time doing the same things breathing at the same times. Same same same just with an Amy shaped void that could never be filled.
I was trapped in ice again. Trapped with fossils.
Until one morning, a car blared its horns. In front of the school gate was a bright red Ferrari and sitting in the car was…
“Amy!” I exclaimed. I ran out of school, passed the gawking students and hopped into the Ferrari.
“Where the hell were you?” I said. “I was so worried… I thought…”
At that moment she did something unexpected, she kissed me on the lips.
“I have a girlfriend,” I said after she pulled away.
“I don’t care,” Amy said with a grin. “We don’t care, remember?”
“But what about the Loop?” I asked. “What about escaping? Are you really okay with being stuck here?”
People started surrounding the car and taking pictures.
“If I’m being honest, no,” Amy said. “But if we ever get bored all we have to do is called Lief. We still have plenty to do till then without worrying about what happens next. So, until we get bored…”
“Let’s make the most of it,” I said.
Amy smiled. “Yep.”
Amy revved up the Ferrari and drove we drove off into the known, predictable adventures awaiting us.
The End.
