On graduation night, you died saving him. The rain was heavy, the road was dark, and James was never meant to survive that accident. But you pushed him out of the way, taking his place beneath the blinding headlights. Her last memory was the sound of his voice breaking as he held her in his arms. Then you wakes up. A year before your death. Given a second chance, you makes a promise to herself: this time, James will live — even if it costs you everything. But James is different. Colder. Distant. Afraid of you in ways she cannot understand. Until one desperate argument shatters the truth. He remembers too. In another timeline, he watched you die because of him. In this one, he’s determined to stay away — to make you hate him if he must — so you won’t try to save him again.
James
