One Wish

One Wish: Two

So I'm a teen again?

"Dom? Will you hurry up? You have to go to school very soon!" 

My mother? Alright, so this is weird! She is dead?! I shake my head and take a deep breath before I start behaving suspicious, not that they know I'm from the future. Well, actually I'm not from the future. Not really, I'm just the only one redoing this all. They just live their nowadays, I suppose I can put it that way.

I quickly flush the toilet to pretend that I was doing something in here and open the door. My mother studies me briefly before she holds the back of her left hand against my forehead.

"Are you sure you feel okay, sweetheart?" she asks worriedly, I nod quickly before forcing a weak smile on my face.

"You seem a bit ill, Dom." she says softly, studying me with those eyes. She's on to something, I can feel it. But she will never be able to guess.

"I guess I'm going to call you in sick for school, my love. You don't look good at all."

"No."

She turns around and studies me, quirking an eyebrow up as she studies me, I never wanted to go to school as bad as I wanted to now and she's obviously thinking the same thing.

"I mean, mum, seriously... I'm fine... I just had a bad dream and I need to see my friends, that's my only concern." I explain calmly, lying. Fortunately mum believes it and smiles widely.

"Dom, don't be afraid, yes? It's just a dream." she says and strokes my cheek before she leaves.

I hurry back into my bedroom, closing the door behind me immediately. I take a deep breath, a massive smile breaking through. I've never been as happy as I am right now. I could prevent someone from dying! And that someone is Matthew Bellamy! The man I found dead because of my cunt behaviour back in the old days. Back in these days! I can barely believe I actually got the second chance I so badly wanted. It's so surreal, but I'm glad it's reality. 

Teignmouth, 21st December 1993
I enter the playground together with Tom and Chris. Both of them don't realise I'm back from the future. It's so cool that I got my teen body and everything back. I am literally reliving my life! I can't describe how happy I am with the ability to correct my wrongs.

I hid the suicide note underneath my mattress, I still have it with me.

I smile and greet Matt, when Tom and Chris are chasing after some girls. 

"Can I..?" I ask, pointing at the empty swing besides Matt, he nods slowly. I know I've been a cunt before this, this is one of those awful memories I can change now.

"I'm sorry for my behaviour." I tell him.

"Why would you apologise?"

"You're my friend, and... I'm gay too..." I say softly, making sure Tom and Chris can't hear it. It will have to wait some more. After all they will accept it. I'm sure, they did in 2008. Damn, that's long though. I will have to wait for so many years...

"Dom... Why did you bully me because of that then?"
