Throughout the entire time that Eliza had been making every attempt to help Sarah and Jeremiah realize that they honestly and truly belonged together and that just like everything else that had honestly happened in their lives that this was the first sign that they had always seemed to be something more than just the best of friends. Jordan had seemed to realize these things in his own special way which had caused him to start thinking about the different things that he could do that would eventually help Jeremiah get over this jealousy that was always getting in the way whenever he had wanted to spend time with Sarah and eventually talk about everything that had been causing the majority of the problems that were taking place throughout that entire time. Eliza knew that Sarah would be around at different times during the weekend since she was spending time with her parents and other family members, and it would be her parents that would be telling Sarah she was better off without Jeremiah being an almost constant part of her life when she obviously had other things that she had to be thinking about for the longest time. Eliza knew that there had been several reasons that Sarah’s parents had believed these things and one of those things had been because of the way that Jeremiah was often acting during those times that he was always getting incredibly jealous for the stupidest little reasons. All that Eliza knew for certain was that Sarah had deserved the chance to be happy and if that meant spending her time with Jeremiah then that was exactly what Sarah should have been doing long before Jordan had made his appearance several months earlier.
That evening Eliza had found herself talking to Jordan about the things that her best friend had been going through and that had included the kind of attitude that Jeremiah had always seemed to be using whenever he had felt that certain things should be happening before Sarah had made the attempt to spend time with her family and friends. Even Jordan had to admit that it was Jeremiah’s constant jealousy that was causing the problems that had kept their relationship from being repaired properly and making sure that they had stayed together the way that they had always wanted to be doing throughout that entire time. Eliza knew that sooner or later something would be happening that would lead to Sarah and Jeremiah getting back together, and when that happened Sarah’s parents would end up finding out exactly how much Sarah and Jeremiah had honestly seemed to love each other from the very beginning. At least that was what Eliza and Jordan had been hoping would be happening once certain things had taken place. Either way, Jordan and Eliza were going to do whatever they could to get them back together even if it meant that they would be staying in this time period forever. That was definitely something that Jordan had never wanted to happen but at the same time there were certain things that would have to be dealt with if Eliza was ever going to go home with him the way that he had honestly wanted the minute that he had figured out exactly what had happened to Eliza and the different members of her family during the time that he was so busy fighting a war that would have eventually helped them all. At least that was the way that Jordan had seen everything after he had learned about the reason that these things had happened and he had met Jeremiah in an attempt to help him with all of the things that had eventually been happening. Things that Jeremiah had caused entirely on his own after he had started dating Sarah and had not realized who Eliza was when these things had first started.
Sarah had eventually found the time to talk to Eliza and Jordan about the different things that had been happening since she had learned about the different threats that Jeremiah had made every time he had been seen talking to Eliza about a variety of different things. Even Jordan had seemed to think that all of these threats had been uncalled for, but at the same time Jordan had seemed to think that Jeremiah might have had his reasons for doing all of these things. Jordan had been working with Eliza, Sarah, and Jeremiah for quite some time and even then he was able to notice certain things that had been happening when nobody else had ever stopped to think about how protective Jeremiah had actually been for the longest time. Sarah had been seeing many of these things in a way that Jeremiah had hoped would have shown that he had been changing after the first time that they had found themselves taking a bit of a break, but it had all ended up being something that was completely different. Jeremiah had started to realize that Sarah was tired of the jealousy that he was often using when he had not gotten things his own way. He had done everything that he could to show that he was doing whatever he could to change the way that Sarah had seen him after she had learned the truth about Jeremiah and his jealousy. Jealousy that Sarah had told Jeremiah she was not going to be putting up with even if it meant that they would be ending their relationship because of everything that had eventually happened after Sarah had learned the truth about everything that had happened. With the amount of times that Jeremiah had attempted to talk to Sarah about these things it had been obvious that Sarah would not be as forgiving as she had been the first time that all of these things had taken place. She had refused to talk to him, and Eliza had somehow been blamed for everything that had happened when Jeremiah had started to see the truth. Eventually Sarah had realized that Jeremiah was not exactly going to give up and was going to do whatever he possibly could to get Sarah back and if that meant making sure that her best friend was brought back to her own time, then that was exactly what he was going to have to do.
For several months Jeremiah had gotten used to having Jordan around and had even started to see him as his best friend despite the fact that Jordan had refused to step up and help him with some of the things that he had been wanting to happen after the last time that he had tried to talk to Sarah about the reason he had been doing certain things. Sarah could understand in her own way the reason Jeremiah had felt, but as far as she was concerned that still did not give him the right to threaten Eliza in the way that he had and she was determined to make Jeremiah realize these things no matter what it was going to take. Over the past few months Sarah was ignoring Jeremiah so that she could eventually prove her point and hopefully get Jeremiah to see that he was very wrong when he had done all of these things. Eliza had understood so many different things that Sarah might have been going through when it came to Jeremiah and his jealousy, but eventually Eliza knew that Sarah would have to set their differences aside and make the attempt to fix the problems that had caused the issues with their relationship during that entire time. Jordan had eventually decided that it was time to do whatever he could to help Jeremiah repair the damage that he had caused when he had let his jealousy get in the way of something that had seemed to make his life just that much better. Even though Jordan had wanted to spend the majority of his time with Eliza showing her just how he had felt about her, he knew that Eliza was doing whatever she could to make sure that things had gotten better for Sarah and that had meant making sure that she had done whatever she could to repair her relationship with Jeremiah. This was something that was going to be rather difficult no matter what was happening during that time.
Jordan had spent quite a few days attempting to find different ways to get Jeremiah to realize that there were things happening that he would eventually find himself spending more time with the one person that had been making all kinds of threats because of the amount of time that Sarah had been spending with Eliza and a few of her closest friends and family. Jordan had seemed to realize that Jeremiah and his jealousy had been the reason that so many of these things had taken place and Sarah had eventually made the decision that she did about her relationship with Jeremiah and the fact that she had wanted to spend her time with Eliza regardless of how Jeremiah had felt throughout that entire time. Either way, Jordan knew that spending time with Jeremiah was one of the only ways that he was going to be able to make sure that certain things would be taking place after the problems that Jeremiah had caused when it came to his jealousy. Jordan had managed to get Jeremiah to think about all of these things, especially since everything that had taken place was something that he would honestly need to think about and eventually talk about regardless of what he had felt throughout the entire time that certain things were happening. The fact that Jeremiah had spent so much time talking about all of these things and the things that Jeremiah was slowly starting to realize after a few things that had eventually ended up happening because of the anger and jealousy that Jeremiah was still using because of the things that he had eventually wanted during that entire time. During the time that Jordan was spending his time talking to Jeremiah about all of these things that had eventually caused the problems with Sarah and the issues that had to do with their relationship and the reason that certain things had been taking place. Eliza had spent that time hanging out with Sarah and talking to her about the different things that were happening in the hopes that she could figure out a way to talk about Jeremiah and the hell that had taken place throughout the entire time that they had seemed to be working together over the past year or so. Even though Jordan had recently started working at Fort Stanwix it was completely obvious that there were certain things that he would be dealing with that would eventually cause him to remember the different things that he was often dealing with at different times. Jordan could still remember the terrible things that were happening when he had first found himself in a different time period, and he was pretty sure that his parents were spending their time trying to find him and figure out just why he had seemed to disappear after everything that was taking place throughout that entire time. Eliza had insisted that they spend time trying to help Sarah and Jeremiah knowing that their best friends deserved to get back together even if there were certain things happening that had led them to believe that Jeremiah was the reason that all of this trouble had eventually ended up starting for many different reasons. Either way, Jordan and Eliza were hoping that there would be something that they could eventually end up doing that would make things better for Jeremiah and Sarah once certain things had been dealt with. With the amount of time that Jeremiah and Jordan had found themselves talking about certain things, it had seemed that there had been trouble starting that Jeremiah had never exactly wanted to admit to but he had eventually admitted to all of these things for a variety of different reasons. Either way, Jordan knew that he would have to lead Jeremiah to realize that Sarah was the one person that was meant to him even if his jealousy tended to drive her completely crazy. Crazy enough so that she had put an end to a relationship that had eventually meant the entire world to them both.
Eliza had spent several days trying to talk to Sarah about Jeremiah and the reason that certain things had seemed to be rather important to how her life would eventually turn out at different times. Eliza had seen the way that Sarah was often acting during the times that she was spending time with Jeremiah, but even then it had seemed that there were several things happening that would cause Sarah to wonder if Jeremiah had really been the right person for her after everything that she had been through during those first few weeks that she had been spending her time with him before Eliza had transferred to Fort Ontario. Eliza could tell almost from the moment that she had returned and had learned about certain things that were taking place that everything was going to be completely different. Even before she had learned that Jordan had come to this time with Jeremiah, it was obvious that these things would be changing for a number of different reasons. Eliza had spent several months attempting to talk to Sarah about Jeremiah and the fact that it was completely obvious how he had felt about her almost from the moment that they had met. Even though Eliza had developed feelings for Jeremiah around the time that Sarah had first started dating him, which had caused Eliza to ask to be transferred during the previous year she was starting to realize how important this relationship truly was when it came to Sarah and the things that she had honestly been through during that particular time. Eliza had realized that there was absolutely nothing that would have come between Sarah and Jeremiah, unless of course someone had ended up saying or doing something that had upset Sarah enough that she would eventually find herself having to point out that Eliza was her best friend and she would always do whatever she could in order to protect her throughout the different things that they had been through over the years. Either way, Eliza knew that she would have to be the one person that would be helping Sarah deal with not only Jeremiah and his jealousy but with the fact that her own parents had never exactly seemed to approve of the person that she was dating throughout that entire time.
By the time that everyone had gone back to work on Monday morning it was obvious that Sarah and Jeremiah would have to figure out a way to talk to each other about the real reason that certain things were about to be taking place. Eliza had hoped that Sarah would be able to take the chance to talk to Jeremiah and explain to him the reason that she had felt the way that she did. All that Sarah could honestly hope for was that Jeremiah would eventually understand the reason that these things were eventually taking place and once these things had happened she knew that there just might be that slight chance that things would eventually end up changing. Jeremiah had eventually gotten the feeling that Sarah was discussing these things with him simply because of the fact that Eliza had found different ways to convince her that this was something that would end up proving to be better for each of them at different times despite the fact that there were things happening that would gradually lead to Eliza and Jordan understanding a bit more about their relationship than Sarah and Jeremiah had ever started to realize. Either way, Eliza had seemed to realize that Sarah was the one that would be doing certain things even if Jeremiah had never seemed to realize any of these things during that particular time, and even if Jeremiah had realized these things it was pretty obvious that he was staying rather quiet about the things that he had eventually realized throughout that entire time. Either way, Sarah had been expecting to hear Jeremiah lie to her about the things that had taken place and the reason that he had honestly believed that Sarah would believe all of the lies that he had been telling her ever since he had started threatening Eliza simply because of the fact that he was not getting the things that he had honestly wanted throughout that entire time. Eliza had hated the fact that she was doing everything that she could think of to get Sarah to give Jeremiah another chance despite everything that he had done throughout that entire time, but at the same time Eliza knew that Sarah had not changed the way that she had felt about Jeremiah despite the different things that were happening. Eliza knew that sooner or later Sarah would have to admit the truth despite the fact that Jeremiah had been the reason that many of these things had been happening from the very beginning.
