Matthew

He woke up to the sun streaming in through the window, and for once, he wasn't alone.

Suzannah was currently looking around for her clothes, sitting on the edge of the bed.

Deciding to capitalize on the fact that she didn't realize he was awake, he reached over to brush his fingertips over her bare shoulder. "Heya, Gorgeous."

She jumped a mile, throwing her shirt down and fumbling blindly for it once more before she registered that it was him in the bed with her. "Really, Ivey? Scaring a girl you just had sex with?"

"No just about it, Suze. I spent the night. You can call it that, you know." He frowned, noting her severe lack of whimsy where whimsy should certainly be. "What's wrong? Am I that bad at it?" He reached for her shirt.

"I'm leaving in four days and you won't ever see me again," she reminded him.

He frowned, swallowing hard. "I know..." He trailed off for a moment, letting her words sink in. "What? Not ever?"

Her eyes widened. "I... I mean... you won't see me like... this... again..." She gestured vaguely to herself before pressing her lips together and made another grab for her shirt. He tugged it back further.

"Am I in your future, Suze?"

"Phillip asked me not to--"

"I don't give a shit what he asked you to do. Am I in your future?"

She opened her mouth and closed it again a few times, looking like a fish out of water as she fought to find the most delicate way to not answer his question. "I..."

He felt the blood rushing through his head as he watched her flounder. "I have a right to know, Suze. I think I do, at any rate. After... everything."

She sighed heavily, shaking her head. "You have a right to a lot of things, Matthew. I just don't think I should tell you this."

"Look. This isn't about Phillip or your 'mission' or anything. This is about you and me and I need to know what I'm in for after you leave."

Suzannah sighed again, but this time she spoke, her words clear as crystal. "I've never met you before. Never even seen you in person. I've seen pictures of you. But, this is the first and only time I've actually met you."

"Am I dead?"

She shrugged. "I have no idea. All I know, is that you go missing... sometime this week actually, never to be seen again."

He sat back hard on the bed, letting the shirt drop into his lap. "Missing? Like... missing-missing? Maybe I..." He trailed off and shook his head. "What could have happened?"

She shook her head. "I don't know... I'm sorry." Suzannah sat back with him. "I'm sorry I let it slip. I really am." She covered her face with her hands. "I was the wrong person to send back in time. But for some STUPID reason, Phillip from my time insisted that it should be me."

"He must think highly of you, then. He doesn't ever do anything without a good reason.
