This choice: Bill is now Willow, in body and mind. • Go Back... Willow Strasserman blinked her eyes for a moment before realizing who was across the street. It was Tom, her boyfriend! She leapt to her feet, grabbing her backpack and purse, nearly bounding down the much larger steps of his front porch.
"BYE MOM, TOM'S HERE!" She shouted in her singsong voice, not waiting for a reply. She quickly raced across the quiet street and practically tackled Tom, leaping into his arms and planting a large kiss on his handsome, sexy lips. He was looking so great today, a fresh haircut, his skin tanned, his muscles rippling under the letterman jacket he wore. She could just stare into those dreamy blue eyes, even if they did look so cute and confused, forever...
Tom, on the other hand, did not have the luxury of being fully adapted to the situation. One moment he had been with his best friend Bill a block from school, the next minute he was back on Bill's street, and this gorgeous brunette had tossed herself at him! Instinctively Tom knew that this was Willow, his girlfriend. They had been best friends since grade school and it was clear they had were meant to be soulmates to anyone that took even the slightest look at them. She was a cheerleader, he was on the basketball, football AND baseball teams, it was an almost too sappy, too perfect love story.
But then there was the previous reality, where Tom was depressed, almost suicidal, and the only bright spot in his life being the times when he'd hang out with Bill. The one person that had never bought Gloria's bullshit, the one person that knew the truth. Bill was Tom's brother and the primary reason why Tom hadn't killed himself, never wanting to put his best friend through something like that. So strong was the bond that while this beautiful girl snuggling against him felt so right and so good, he couldn't help but feel horrible about what had become of Bill.
Meanwhile, in Tom's hand, the Ahn'Ger Stone's ethereal green-gold light faded away, leaving no trace that it had been involved at all...   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
