I should have died when I was shot at the Halloween dance.

Instead I woke up—one week earlier, in a parallel universe where my mom's fatal car accident six months ago never happened.

A world with my mom still in it was all I ever wanted. But in this timeline, everything is different—my grades, my friends, and even my boyfriend. I'm a stranger in my own body, and I don’t like who I’ve become.

But one thing is the same—that shooting will still happen at the end of the week.

I'm the only one who knows. Which means I'm the only one who can stop it.

But first I need to convince someone—anyone—that I’m telling the truth... and then get them to help me.

"Be strong," they said. "You're a lucky guy," they said.
Lucky? Lucky?! Clearly, they were the crazy ones.

I think even in my life before, I was always a little messed up in the head. A little too sad when I didn't have reason to be. A little too amped up for a fight that didn't need to happen. An all-round screw-up. That was me, alright.
