Lance pov
I slowly open my eyes trying to ready myself for the ever intense burning of the sun that accompanied every morning. This time though the sun feels different.
After a good 30-45 seconds of slow breathing trying to get my eyes semi adjusted to the blinding light I'm finally able to fully open my heavy eyes.
What I see shocked me. I'm in a hospital bed. I tried to remember how I would get here. It all starts coming back. My friends girlfriends Birthday party. Drinking and smoking. Moving through the haze of the cigarette and joint filled smoke house looking for my girlfriend. Finding said girlfriend kissing some random dude. Flipping out and driving away from the party far too inebriated to be driving.
My last memory before everything went dark was a deer running out in front of me and trying to swerve to not hit it. Only to over correct and go into a tailspin that sent me flying off the edge of the smoky mountains in my hometown in Tennessee.
I quickly think I'm fucked. I'd just lost everything beacuse of a stupid girl. Allowed her to be so in control of my emotions I drove drunk and crashed a car. No doubt if I'm in the hospital I was found and taken care of, but honestly I'd have rather died. I had a scholarship to play at D-II college basketball. Not the best but good enough to get a free education and stay in shape.
But if I'd just got hit with drunk driving then that's all out the window.
I'm broken from my thoughts when a middle aged doctor with salt and pepper in his hair and beard enters the room I'm in. The look he's giving me is one of pity. One I understand well if my thoughts about losing my scholarship are true.
However, his first words shock me again, "I'm so sorry Lance, but you were the only one to survive the accident."
My confusion must've been clear on my face because he sighed with pity again and sat down in the chair beside my bed and spoke slowly. "You and your parents were on your way through the Rockies. A bad storm sprung up and caused the accident. Im so sorry young man." He says patting my shoulder.
In truth though, I didn't care a bit. I was never on a Rockies trip with my parents. I was the only one who was in the car that night. I kept such things to myself. Better they don't find out who I am and I can go back to my regular life.
The doctor again breaks my train of thoight when he speaks, "your family's lawyer will be here shortly to allow you to do what you wish with the assets that are now yours and yours alone. Please, stay strong and if you need anything while here don't hesitate to let any of us know."
I nod my head absentmindedly trying to think. Then I decided to get a forsure on whether my life was about to turn upside down.
I wasn't happy with the answer.
"Excuse me doc," I say getting his attention. His blue eyes look at me in concern but I continue speaking, "what's the date if you don't mind me asking? I feel foggy."
I nodded and replied, "A bit of amnesia is to be expected with the hit you took Lance. Your memory should come back soon. But todays date is December 15, 2004."
My mental breaks lock up and squeal the moment he said that. 2004. What the fuck? I should only be 2 years old. But I'm clearly in my 17 year old body that I had in 2019. My head is spinning. And as the doctor leaves the room I'm left with all this information trying to understand how I went back in time.
"What the hell?" I say into the void of the room I'm in with the early morning dawn coming through the widow with the curtain pulled back a bit.
The next shocking thing comes when I see my face. It's not my fucking face!
"What the hell?!"

Quick chapter guys. Like I said. I want to gauge the level of interest in it before I start putting down a couple thousand words a chapter. That would take away from fics i and others enjoy to see. So please, suggestions for the pairing as well as the face cam for the pairing.
The mc face is set in stone. I won't change it. But the romantic interest is up to you. Whether it be an oc or established twilight character.
Hope you enjoyed!
