"Tyler, I really think I was born in the wrong era," she told him, letting out a frustrated sigh. "I bet my soul mate is somewhere in the past, long gone by now."

He nearly grumbled, but refrained. "Well, Sugar, I'd hate to break it to ya, but if that's what you believe, you'll be alone a while..."

It was then Rose noticed the fire was almost out. She stood up, letting out a depressed sounding groan.
"I'm gonna go get some more firewood," she said, making her way over to the door to put on her boots and coat.

He moved to get up. "I'll do it, Rosie. No use in ya gettin' all cold."

Rose was already pulling on her boots as she rolled her eyes. "Tyler, sit down. I'll do it this time, you do it for the rest of the weekend, deal?" She flashed him a brilliant smile before opening the door and going out into the snow.
She went around the back of the cabin where a pile of logs were stacked in a cupboard. She began to haul some out into her arms; then, something caught her eye. She turned around, expecting to see a deer or something. But there was nothing. "Hello?" she called out, brow furrowed in confusion. In-between two huge pine trees, Rose saw something like the sparkle of diamonds in the sunlight. She set the firewood down and walked toward it, unable to figure out what it was.
When she got closer, she reached out to touch it. And the next thing she knew, everything was black. She faintly heard someone asking if she was all right... What the fuck?

Tyler McGowan was leaning over the girl he'd found near the woods at the edge of his family's property. It was cold and about to snow. What would a girl be doing out here near dark??
"Miss? Miss, you alright?" He brushed his hand over her forehead, seeing if she'd wake up.

Rose moved her head a bit to the side as she opened her eyes. She was looking up into a very familiar face. She moved to prop herself up on her elbows, her hair falling down around her shoulders.
"Tyler... What happened? Where's all the snow?"

Tyler blinked at her. "It's comin'. Should start at nightfall....do I know ya, honey?" He was sure he'd recognize a girl as pretty as she was.

Rose looked up at him, one eyebrow raised.
"Um, you should..." she started, her voice trailing as she noticed that he was dressed differently. He wasn't wearing Tyler's coat or Tyler's boots and his hair was combed to the side neatly.
"I'm sorry, but... Who are you?"

He checked her for blood or an obvious injury. "Tyler McGowan. Yer on McGowan land. Can ya get up if I help ya?"

Rose went over what she knew. There was a man. He looked like the Tyler McGowan she knew. And his name was Tyler McGowan. But he didn't know her. Which was...impossible. They'd known each other for years. She looked down at her hands, then put her hands to her hair. It seemed like she was still Rose Howard.
So, why...? A thought popped into her head. No... Surely not. I mean...it's impossible... Right? Maybe I'll just...see.
"Uhm, excuse me, Mr. McGowan, but... Would you mind telling me what the year is?"

Tyler frowned at her, confused. Maybe she'd hit her head harder than he thought. "1949...who are ya, anyway?" He helped her sit up, not wanting her to stand right away.

Did he just say 1949? As in nineteen forty nine? As in one nine four nine? As in...not 2011?
Okay, Rose. This man, Tyler McGowan, is telling you it's 1949. The last thing you remember is walking toward something sparkling in the woods. And now you're here. What do you do?
"I'm, uh, Rose. Rose Howard. I...I don't really remember how I got here." Luckily, Rose had previously formed a plan of what she would do were she to ever find herself somehow transported back in time... What, like you've never thought about it?!

((Ha! I've totally thought about it!))
He finally helped her stand up. "Are ya hurt, Rose? Ya don't sound like yer from around here..." He looked at her a little warily, frowning. He might look just like Tyler, but he was not nearly as cheerful.

"No, I, uh, I just...moved here?" Despite having a plan already formulated, Rose was still extremely confused. How the hell did she even get here?!
((Uhm, DUH! I just watched The Black Knight with Martin Lawrence where he gets transported back to Medieval times, and OMG he was so stupid.))
