Full Summary: A modern-day interracial couple's marriage is challenged when they mysteriously end up in the year 1955 in a small Alabama town. ( The couple are from modern day).

Author's Note: I am aware that I am posting this story on a website dedicated to erotic literature but this story will go into much depth without a primary focus on just sex. Yes, there will be sex, but just not any chapter soon. And for a brief character profile:

James Moreau: 6'2, Dark Brown Hair, Blue Eyes

Evelyn Moreau: 5'8, Dark Brown Hair, Brown Eyes

*

I: Crash

July 18, 2018

"Have you taken my proposition into consideration yet?" James said, breaking the uncomfortable silence that had settled between him and his wife. They had been 30 minutes into driving from a fancy upscale restaurant that was 3 hours from their home. The fancy dinner they had attended had been part of a conference for medical doctors, or otherwise, for his wife.

James thought the conference was mostly boring, but that was only because he was an accountant, a number person. Science just never seemed to click for him. But for his wife, Evelyn, science came second-hand, and her penchant for learning and obtaining the knowledge of science almost made him envious. She was one of the smartest women he knew and he couldn't have thought of a better woman to marry.

There were a few moments of silence between them before she decided to respond.

"Yes I have taken your proposition into consideration but the answer is still no," Evelyn said, her words coming out more harshly than she had intended.

James sighed; he knew it would be futile to try to argue with his wife, Evelyn, but the subject matter had been so much on his mind lately that he couldn't help but to press the issue. The issue had certainly been on his mind all through dinner as he couldn't help but to marvel over how beautiful his wife looked in her little black dress.

"You love me, don't you?" James said turning his head towards her. He had a hard time keeping his eyes off her tonight. He couldn't help but to notice how perfectly the moonlight complemented her light mocha skin at that moment.

Evelyn rolled her eyes, starting to become irritated and a bit annoyed, "I'm sick of talking about this James. I told you before, I just got the practice set up and everything set into motion. I'm not going to have to time to watch over a kid in between the clinic and everything else- and keep your eyes on the road."

James glanced at her quickly, a little taken back at how offensive she had suddenly become. It usually wasn't like her to get short-tempered so easily, but he had been pressing the issue for days now. But he wasn't ready to give up.

"Well don't you have other doctors working with you to run the practice? I'm sure you could take maternal leave for a few months- "

"Well then there wouldn't have been any point in me personally setting up the clinic- please just stop James. I'm just at a point in my life where I would like to focus on my career before I start playing the 'dutiful wife' and mommy."

"I think your being selfish Evelyn."

"How am I being selfish? What if I hassled you into getting me pregnant while you were trying to finish up your masters? How would you feel then?"

"Yeah, well that was when we both weren't ready," he replied, "I think we're financially ready now. I'm ready."

Evelyn sighed an annoyed sigh and turned away from him.

"If I'm not mistaken, Dr. Moreau, one of the purposes of marriage is to procreate-"

"Yeah, it's one of the purposes but not all of them," Evelyn cut in abruptly, "Can we just drop this please. NO, I am not ready to have children yet and since my body is going to be the one going through all the changes I feel like you have no say in the matter of when I should have children."

"And my god," Evelyn continued exhaustingly, before he even got the chance to open his mouth, "I've never met a man in my life so concerned with having children."

"Well I'm sorry for wanting to start a family with the woman I love. I see that was a mistake," James replied sarcastically.

For some reason this comment greatly bothered her. She turned to him, furious.

"Oh, so are you saying that marrying me was a mistake?"

"What?" James said incredulously, turning to her, " Those words never came out of my mouth. Why are you getting so upset lately?-"

"James, the deer-!!!!"

But it was too late, by the time he had turned his attention back to the road, he had no time to completely avoid the deer that they were making a head on collision with. In a panic, he severed hard left, nicking the deer but sending the car flying down into a dark ravine.

Everything went black.

Not unlike a lot of couples

This is why people should talk about these things BEFORE they get married. Instead they think talk about money, children and long term goals aren't romantic. Arguing all the time isn't romantic either. Onward!

Take two

Another writer did a similar i/r time travel storyline not long ago. 14 chapters and then apparently abandoned. It was a really great series that I enjoyed reading and disappointing that the author stopped writing it.

I have added this one to my favorites to follow it along. It's an interesting topic and I hope you are able to develop the story with practice. I echo others on the short chapter. Then again, I did that too on my first story chapter LOL.

Good luck with this and I'll look forward to more and better!

An interesting premise for a story. I will say you should find an editor for some small fixed and trivial things, but other than that it was really good. Keep at it.

Agree!

I agree with Darkeagle_UK! I think this story has great potential! I wish it was longer and a little editing couldn't hurt. Please don't be discouraged by unhelpful negative comments. I'm excited to see where this story goes!

Great idea, but a tad short perhaps?

I see others have made the same comment, but to be fair to you, I'm guessing that the car accident is probably the moment of transition from 2018 to the 1950s, right? So stopping at this point is a natural chapter division. Perhaps you should have called it 'The Prologue' rather than 'Chapter 1'? Having said that, I think the concept of an interracial couple being translated to 50s Alabama is an inspired one - 10/10 for the idea! On a grammatical note, please remember that 'your' is the possessive pronoun, as in 'your mother is here'. What you needed in your text was "you're" which is the contraction for 'you are' as in 'I think you're being selfish Evelyn' Another nitpick comment is that it is usually considered 'bad form' to begin a sentence with 'but', unless it is dialogue, when it can be allowed, as people often say things like; "But I was only kidding!" To use it in your narrative is weak because 'but' should be a conjunction linking two ideas together. 'However' is better to start a sentence with. I hope you don't mind me pointing these things out - I think your story has great promise and I want to thank you for writing it. Why 2018 and not 2011? Just wondering. Anyway, please keep going and don't be put off by unhelpful negative comments. Good luck!

Get one. Immediately. Mediocre writing, at best.
