"Do we get second chances in this life, Todd?" Neil asks him like he expects a negative answer. Todd doesn't give that to him. "Yes. We do. I know it." "Do you?" Neil grins, playfully elbowing him. "Did you at least wait to take it? That second chance? Until the world was more peaceful? More kind?" Ten years after the death of Neil Perry, Todd Anderson wakes up with a second chance. **REPOSTED FROM AO3 BY ORIGINAL AUTHOR

Neil's life was pre-constructed, he never dared to question or falter; until he met Todd that is. To Neil, Todd was the embodiment of rebellion, everything he'd never dared to obtain yet everything he feverishly craved. Throughout the course of these chapters, Neil learns things - unimaginable things - about himself, life, love, and the fact he would trade the whole world to be able to live freely and deeply.
