From the moment they met on the first day of freshman year, Elias and Paxton had been inseparable. Their friendship was built on shared laughter, late-night study sessions, and inside jokes that only they understood. Now, standing on the other side of high school, they sat together at a restaurant, celebrating their graduation and reminiscing about the years that had shaped them.
As the night came to a close, Elias finally found the courage to say what had been weighing on his heart for so long, his feelings for Paxton. But Paxton, who had never considered their bond as anything more than friendship, was caught off guard. Panic took hold of him, and before he could process his emotions, he ran out into the street, his mind a whirlwind of confusion.
Elias, unwilling to let things end like this, chased after him, calling his name. Then, in a single, life-altering instant, Paxton turned just in time to see a speeding truck collide with Elias. His world shattered in front of him.But instead of being consumed by darkness, Paxton woke up back in his old bedroom, on the very first day of freshman year. Time had rewound, granting him a second chance. As he stared at his reflection in the mirror, memories of the future he had already lived flooded his mind. And with them came something new..a deep, undeniable ache in his chest.
Elias was out there, alive, waiting to meet him again.
This time, Paxton would
be so blind to what was in his heart.?
