Aleksei's P.O.V
This wasn't supposed to happen.
No way.
Did we just go back in time!?

....

Okay, okay, hold up. We're not that far in yet. Now you're going to go, 'Oh! That's so cool! You went back in time! It was awesome, right?'

(I swear, Arya and Axel, I'm going to kill you.)

No. Just no.

It was not awesome.

Especially when all you've got are a few idiotic friends and a stupid watch from a sketchy store back in the woods.

Let's go back a little....

5 days earlier....

"Oh hell no. We are not going into that house." I say with finality.
"Scared of a little dare Aleksei?" Colton says, flicking my forehead.
"Ugh, no! I'm not going because I don't wanna!" I shout.
"So he is scared!" Casey shouts, pointing at me as she laughs.
"Oh be quiet!" I say.
"Gonna go or not, kid?" Colton asks, grinning sadistically.
"Fine. I'll go!" I shout.
"Knew you would! See you at noon tommorow, and if you're not there, then we'll assume you chickened out, okay?" Colton said, grinning.
"Yeah yeah, whatever." I say.
"Remember, the house at the end of the street. Got it? Aleksei-?" He says, saying my name and making me blush as he says it with his stupid accent.
"Yeah yeah. I'll see you at noon."

And little did I know that that was what sealed my fate.

As he walked away, I thought to myself:
"Oh hell no, did I REALLY agree to this!?"

Well, guess I'm going to the house on the edge of this dingy little town we call Mayfield....

As I walked home, I thought of all the things that could go wrong.

What if I got lost?
What if I got hurt?
What if I forget my flashlight?
What if....

Then I run into a telephone pole.

"AH! THAT HURT!" I yell, rubbing my head.
"Ugh....whatever..." I say and continue walking.

Tommorow was gonna suck...
