. . . . . . . . . "It was just past dawn on the prairie and like every morning, Amelia prepared to do her chores except something about this morning felt different. Maybe it was the first whisper of winter in the air, or maybe it was the unconscious handsome man with porcelain skin and curious clothing she was about to discover lying in the field. A man who would open her mind to new possibilities and her body to new feelings, also to have her heart broken. The man was from the future. He started to tell her about time travel. \u201CTime travel? I don\u2019t understand,\u201D said Amelia Cooper stared at her. \u201CWhich word don\u2019t you understand? Time or travel?\u201D It stung Amelia when he spoke to her this way. In her little one-room schoolhouse she was always the smartest student regularly besting the boys in her class, but this was no boy in front of her. This was a man. Cooper told Amelia about the strange and incredible things that the future would hold. Like computers and living past thirty. He asked her if she had any questions. All she longed to ask if his heart was beating as fast as hers, but she was too afraid to hear the answer. So instead she asked him in the future, if Montana would ever become a state... {Note: IN THE 1800'S IT WAS LIKE FLIRTING.} With a heavy heart, Amelia stood before the newly repaired time machine. She regretted giving Cooper the parts he needed. As Cooper prepared to depart tears filled Amelia\u2019s eyes. He took her hand in his and said, \u201CI can\u2019t stay, but I will never forget you.\u201D He brushed his fingers against her cheek, then quickly stepped into the machine. \u201CPlease don\u2019t go,\u201D she whispered. But it was too late. The engine hummed to life. She turned away, wiping her eyes. She couldn't bear to watch her one chance at true love disappear forever. Then she felt a strong hand on her shoulder spin her around. It was Cooper. \u201CWhat about the future?\u201D asked Amelia. He looked deeply into her eyes and whispered, \u201CThere is no future without you. He pulled her close. She began to tremble all over. She felt his warm breath... Amelia bathed Cooper and asked,\u201D Is the water warm enough?\u201D Cooper replied, \u201CGiven the fact you took the time to build a wood fire, draw the water from the well and heat it, it would be rude to complain. But since you asked, it is a little nippy.\u201D \u201CI can fix that,\u201D she said reaching for the kettle and gently pouring in the fresh water. Cooper looked up appreciatively. \u201CI couldn't help but notice your unusual undergarments.\u201D \u201CThey\u2019re not undergarments. They\u2019re Underoos. Where I come from, they\u2019re known as \u201Cunderwear that\u2019s fun to wear,\u201D said Cooper somewhat proudly. Amelia knelt down. \u201CAnd what is the significance of the spider?\u201D \u201COh, that represents Spiderman. He does whatever a spider can,\" a bit poetically. Amelia reaches for the sponge. \u201CThere\u2019s a lot of rhyming in the future, isn't there?\u201D As he stood for Amelia to dry him, she glanced down and then asked, \u201CSo tell me Cooper, are the ways of physical love, different in the future?\u201D...
