Chapter 6 - Where Am I?

Before I knew it I was at the hospital getting a cast for my arm. My friends were standing around me. They helped me off the bed and we all left. We went back to Eric's house. They told me I was really brave for doing that. Man, I guess I can change the past, eh? 

It was worth it just to make sure that Jake didn't die. I would've died for the kid. I may not like him, but he doesn't deserve to die just because I don't like him for some stupid reason! I'm a nice guy deep down inside, but i'm not getting picked on for it, so I don't show it. 

We were sitting there talking about it. I thought about it over and over again. What If I saved me AND Jakes and his family? What if I didn't get hurt just to save him? Pssh, i'm lucky I lived this time, why take the chance? I'm not gonna take another chance to die. That's so ridiculous! The kid is alive and well. That's all I wanted.  

What if I did save him in a different way? Would it make any difference? Maybe, maybe not. But, it's always good to think of this kind of stuff. Think of your possibilities. Whether good or bad. 

I began to think of what I could do to keep us both safe. My friends were saying how courageous I was. I began to zone out, oh no, not again! I can't do this again. Help me please!!

I began to think of that again. I couldn't hear my friends and then I started to lose sight of them. Is this really gonna happen again? Oh god please dont! Before I knew it I couldn't see or hear my friends, the thoughts on my mind the same from the last time and I was thinking about that poor kid and what happened to him the first time. 

I already fixed it once, so why does this keep happening to me? It can't keep happening..I didn't do anything! Please make this stop...
