It was a dark and stormy night in early spring, the dog was uneasy and wanted out to howl at moon or whatever... he saw her first. Visibly cold in the flimsy sundress, thoroughly drenched in the snow mixed rain the girl come straight to John and threw hands around his neck, "John! So glad you're here! I was so scared..."

John had lived in this house in the middle of relative nowhere his grandfather had received in his wife's dowry all his life, except the school years partially spent in the city. Of course he was here. He had no idea who the girl was, but she was cold, and he led her inside. Amazingly she seemed to know the layout perfectly and commented on minor changes in the kitchen... made a long time ago.

[deleted- way more than just a Story idea. remember folks, no outlines, just ideas....]

...in stops and starts she proceeded to tell their love story, backwards. It did strangely rime whith events back then but hadn't happened to John. But when she get to how they met he already knew. He did remember that girl from drawing class he had walked home together with, once, in 1994. She claimed they had been lovers for two years after nearly a year of dating.

I'd make it even more personal. She thinks they are married. Driving home in her world she encounters on your dark and stormy night, a phenomenon called ball lightning. Her car is struck by it on the lonely dark road and when she wakes up, the car is electrically fried. So she walks home to find a husband who does not recognize her at all.

This can create an amazing emotional situation. She's terified and heartbroken, he's confused and amazed by her wild story and the things she knows about him.

You can add the year difference but it isn't really necessary.

"Hey and you have a new dog," she cheered noticing John's companion. The dog was a senior in his solid teens, raised from a puppy by himself, but John decided to let it pass. "Oh, sorry," she dropped her voice apparently misinterpreting his grimace, "better not not wake up your dad, right?"

"Dad died five years ago," he blurted. "Who are you?"

"What? Oh... sorry... how? My condolences..." she stammered confused, "Why? I'm Blaze, don't you recognize me? Or... oh, I admit our breakup was messy and... it's been some time, but... But John, don't you..."

His phone chirped, he took it from the belt holster and swiped the useless notification away, even though he knew it couldn't be anything important, but it offered a momentary distraction he needed.

"What a gadget," she had watched closely, "you have always liked the newest things, is it all touchscreen?"

"Yes... and it's not new. Actually, it's quite old at seven years, and this pattern... like that been around since, first iPhone, 2006? Something like that..."

Meanwhile she had walked to the closet, grabbed a fresh towel not really looking for it, and without slightest hesitation proceeded to strip out of her wet clothes and towel off right in front of him, no modesty whatsoever.

"2006?! How?!" She exclaimed, without stopping.

"Okay, what year you think it is?"

"1998?"

"It's 2026."

"Wow... thirty years... no wonder you have forgotten me, then," she conceded sadly, standing there naked toweling her long hair.

"No, girl, I wouldn't ever forget a girl like you. We haven't met."

"Whoa? Can't be! Don't you remember..."

My life changed by self hypnosis. From combat, PTSD, A veteran who served world ll and Korean, who became a psychologist he overcame his PTSD, THE VA didn't do any kind therapy. The first view months just made little small amount of chance, then he actually hypnotized. I didn't know that he had done it. I felt like that was there just minutes,but felt I had been asleep for a while. When dismissed me with a floder with instructions, preparing time to sleep. The small tape-record set alarm clock and a list I read them aloud.and wife and step daughter, to words to awaken me. The college grads planned themselves two days of fucking, sucking eating pussy. For years they had sex in so many positions, visitors. It felt normal to me. The nice thing is it was about them and myself alone mother, grandmother and our great grandmother 81 and few birthdays in the presents of the whole family.
