SECOND CHANCE REBORN
CHAPTER ONE


"Daniel here, catch!"

Daniel Greenside's 16 year old body flew through the air to catch the Rugby
ball that was thrown towards him, catching it to perfection and running
past the other players to score a triumphant try to equal the scores
between the two sides. Now only for the conversion, if it is successful,
then they would have won by two points. Daniel patted Joel on the back, the
number 10 in who's hands or shall I say legs, the destiny of the resulting
conversion would lie. Joel and Daniel were best friends ever since their
birth as their father's were in the same school 2 decades ago. Daniel wiped
the sweat of his face while watching Joel pick up a patch of grass and
letting it fall through his fingers in order to check in what direction the
wind was blowing.

Once that was established Joel took a few steps back and
took the run up and took the shot, which flew high into the air, bound
towards the post. Daniel looked up as if in a dream to see the shot bounce
narrowly against the posts and fall back a little further from where Joel
kicked it in the first place.

The stadium was silent, everywhere you looked
there was faces of disbelief as this was the first time that Joel Harding
missed a conversion or a penalty kick. Daniel ran up to Joel and placed his
arm over his best friend's shoulder and guided him towards the dressing
room as the referee ended the game. This was not how they wanted to end the
season. Dissapointment was clear in the air and overall in the attitude of
their fellow players. Daniel couldn't care less about them. He was only
worried that Joel was gonna be okay.

It was furiously hot in Cape Town, South Africa this time of the year as
Christmas was fast approaching. Daniel was walking over to Joel's, dressed
in a sleaveless blue shirt and simple white shorts with his sandals
flip-flopping on the pavement as he hurried as fast as he could. Joel
didn't stay far from him at all, afterall his and Joel's dad had been best
friends since Highschool. Daniel wiped the sweat from his forehead as he
felt the sun burning into his skin. Luckily he remembered sunblock, fuck he
hated the summer time. Others may find that strange, but Daniel hated any
kind of heat. As he finally reached Joel's house, he saw Joel's dad, Steven
doing from gardening between the flowerbeds that grew on the front lawn.
Was this man mad? Doing that in this kind of weather?

"Morning Mr Harding!" Daniel greeted the elder man.

Steven looked up and
smiled towards his son's best friend, aswell as the son of his own best
friend.

"Morning buddy! Hey if you're looking for Joel, he is swimming at the
back. Im going to the shops in a little while, so ask him if I can bring
you guys anything."

"Will do, Mr Harding. See you."

Daniel jumped over the small gate leading to the back of the yard where he
heard the faint sound of water splashing as Joel was practising his dives,
being the sporty person that he was. He didn't want Joel to see him just
yet. He stood behind the brick wall and watched his best friend goind about
his routines in the pool. Daniel looked down towards his hands, they were
soaked. He didn't know whether it was from the sheer heat, or...something
else.

The last few months something had started happening with Daniel and
he didn't quiet know why or how to handle it. He had begun to have certain
feelings for Joel that he despised and that he didn't want to. He felt sick
feeling the way that he had but over the last few months and reading and
researching everything and all that he could, he knew what the problem
was. He refused to accept that he was gay, because no other boy interested
him sexually.

As he watched the water suds slide down Joel's eight pack and
strong arms, wetting his hair and the boyish energy in which he did things
was too much to bare. It took Daniel months to realise that he wasn't just
in love with his best friend, but he infact loved him. He ofcourse thought
he could never dare tell Joel something like this, well not unless he
wanted to lose his friend forever. I mean what kinda guy wants to hear that
his best friend is in love with him?

But then one night during a sleepover
on a Rugby tour some weeks ago Daniel was having this incredible dream
about Joel that he started to moan in his sleep about the latter. Daniel
was woken up by a shaking Joel, who was looking him in the eyes with the
utmost confusion on his young, yet handsome face. That night Daniel finally
decided that he would tell Joel everything that he was feeling.

"I can't tell you why i feel this way, dude. All I know is that I love you
so fucking much and not just as a friend. Now if you would just ignore all
of this, im sure that it will all go away in time and everything will be
fine..."

Daniel was blabbering on and on trying to convince Joel that there was
nothing wrong with him, but he was silenced when Joel leaned forward and
placed his lips on Daniel's. It wasn't even a real kiss, just a simple
gesture to show Daniel that he had nothing to worry about. Joel pulled away
and Daniel could see that he was visably upset.

"I don't quite know if you're feeling like I'm feeling Dan, but all I know
is that...I feel stuff for you too. I don't wanna be gay, man. I don't
fucking wanna be gay! But it won't go away..." he ended off, still
shivering.

Daniel leaned over and took Joel in his arms, and immediately he
heard Joel gasp and a minute or so later he felt the latter's arms around
his body aswell. Joel slowly laid his head onto Daniel's chest and although
both of them didn't say it out loud, both was surprised at just how right
it felt, being with eachother like that. Now as Daniel was staring at Joel
in the pool, he knew that those feelings had not faded away like he first
hoped, but instead it evolved like a fucking Pokemon into something much
more greater. Daniel heard Mr Harding's car pull out of the driveway,
probably going to the shops like he said, and finally he emerged from
behind the wall and walked over towards Joel.

"Hey buddy. How's the water?"

"Hey man. Jump in and feel for yourself."

"Why don't you get out so that I can greet you properly?"

Joel started to smile slighty and made his way to the shallow side and got
out. Daniel walked over to him, slowly reached out his arm and caressed
Joel's shoulder.

"Dude, you're making me feel funny. But like...good funny. I don't know
what's happening to me, man," Joel said softly.

"Let's go inside. Let's take things easy okay?"

The two of them made their way to the living room when Joel walked into the
kitchen and grabbed two Cokes from the fridge. He passed one to Daniel and
in the process, their fingers slightly touched. Joel looked down and
started to blush.

"What's wrong, buddy?" Daniel whispered, reaching out to rub Joel's back.

"This is not fucking normal, dude! I can't get my head around that! My
parents will kill me when they find out I'm in love with..."

Daniel stopped rubbing Joel's shoulder and is eyes widened. So...Joel felt
the same! He turned Joel's face towards his and looked deeply into his
eyes.

"Look buddy, we didn't ask for this. If it wasn't meant to happen it
wouldn't have! Have you ever stopped to think of that? Remember what we
leaned in Sunday school? There is always a reason that stuff happens to
people! Maybe we were meant to fall inlove! We have been close all our
lives, man. Come here."

Joel didn't want to cry, he wasn't a fucking pussy! But there was only so
much that a 16 year old boy could keep inside before it threatned to spill
over. He fell into Daniel's arms and holding him so tight that Daniel
struggled to breathe. When Joel finally pulled away he looked Daniel
straight in the eye.

"I freaking love you, dude. I can't help it, I'm so in love with you..."

"Don't worry man. I feel the same. I love you too."

Slowly both of them leaned forward and their lips touched. Both of them
felt the electricity of the sheer passion that was flowing through their
connection. Daniel reached up and ran his hands through Joel's sunbleached
hair. Joel moaned at the contact that was made as he pulled Daniel closer
to him. Both of them ran slightly out of breath as the kiss went on, but
Joel was the first to pull away and rest his forehead against Daniel's.

"That was fucking fantastic man..." he whispered.

"I know, I've never been this hard before," Daniel agreed.

Suddenly they were thrown apart when they heard the sounds of glass
smashing just outside the kitchen.

"What the hell?" Daniel asked as they ran to where the sound came from. As
they ran into the kitchen, Daniel screamed as he was confronted by a gun that was suddenly pointed straight in his
face.

"You both shut the hell up! You dare make a sound and you're both fucking
dead!" the man with a Father Christmas mask on his face barked towards the
boys.

"Look, take what you want and just leave us alone," Joel pleaded.

"Didn't I tell you to shut the fuck up?" the man shouted once more, nearly
pushing the gun into Joel's face.

Out of no where, Steven entered the
living room through the back door and startled the robber. With the intruder's mind
off the kids for a minute, Joel took his chance. He grabbed the gun as suddenly
himself and the robber fought for supremacy. Steven grabbed Daniel out of
the way and ran to the panic button, pressed it twice and pulled out his
cellphone. The robber saw what was going on and immediatly headbutted Joel
in the face. Joel fell onto the wooden floor, with no means of protection. The intruder laughed and pointed the gun straight at him as Joel was forced upwards.

Daniel, as if in a dream,
slow motion, instinctively knew what was going to happen and he started to
ran towards Joel. Steven shouted something inaudible to Daniel as nothing
and no one could stop the latter. The gun went off and the bullet was
flying straight towards Joel's heart. Daniel hastily pushed Joel out of the
way and the next moment he felt a sickening, burning, paining feeling in
his chest.

Daniel fell to the ground in a heap as the Earth started
spinning and his sight was starting to rapidly fade. Out of the corner of
his eye, he thought he saw, as he was finding it difficult to focus his
mind, that Joel had fallen next to him, with blood covering his
stomach. Daniel's blood. The last thing that Daniel could remember thinking was how much he
loved Joel. Then everything went black.

Daniel opened his eyes to find himself in a...was it a garden? It certainly
looked so. He stood up from where he layed and looked around. It honestly
was one of the most beautiful places that he had ever seen. Small steams of
water was greatened by massive waterfalls with crystal clear blue and white
strands of waves. The sun was streaming on his face as Daniel decided to
look for help as he knew he had gotten lost somewhere...although he
couldn't remember how or why. His eyes squinted when he gotten a glimpse of
a whitish creature making its way over to him. As the person got nearer,
the more at peace Daniel felt.

"Hello Daniel. I had been waiting for you. By now you must be wondering
where you are and how you arrived here."

"Yeah man, what is this place? And...who are you?"

"Daniel, I'm sorry. But it does not make sence to keep anything from
you. Look down at your chest."

Daniel did as he was told, and his mouth fell open. Right on the spot where
he always knew his heart to be, was a massive red spot that clodded his
blue shirt. Suddenly his memory was triggered as images of a robber with
the Father Christmas mask and the gunshot rattled through his brain.

"Please don't tell me..." he started to speak but emotion at the sheer
thought that he had died got the better of him.

"Forgive me for being the person to inform you, but yes, your body has been
fatally wounded."

Tears slowly started to drip from Daniel's eyes as he thought about his
beloved Joel. They had only started to come to terms with their mutual love
and now it was all for nothing.

"But yet, all is not lost," the mysterious person said...and Daniel looked
up, and found that his tears had been miraculously wiped away.

"Daniel, what do you remember about the circumstances surrounding your
death?" the person asked.

"Not eh...not much...I remember falling and the gunshot and..."

"Are you aware that while your body had psysically died, your soul is still
very much alive?"

Daniel remained silent, yet he frowned in confusion. The white person
signaled to him to follow him as they walked further into the garden. Once
again Daniel was awazed at the sheer beauty of the place.

"Not many people have done or will do what you did for Joel Harding. You
jumped infront of him just before the gun went off, pushing him out of the
way and recieved the brutality of the intended manner. Do you know what
that means, Daniel? You risked your life, you risked your soul to save the
person that you loved. You died while saving the life of another."

"Yeah...I remember now. Why are you telling me this? Where the hell are
we?"

"Please do not utter that word infront of me on while you are here,
Daniel. To make a long story short, I have spoken to my Superior and we
have decided that according to what you had done for young Joel, that you
deserve another chance."

"You mean I'm not dead, that I can go back?" Daniel screamed in
ecstacy. Just the mere thought of seeing Joel again...

"No, I am afraid it is not that simple. For all purposes, you are
deceased. What we are prepared to do is all in the name of the one thing
that we hold most dear, which is love. If your love for Joel and his for
you is as strong as we believe it to be, it should not matter."

Daniel scratched his head as he did not understand. He suddenly began to
wonder why he did not feel any pain from the wound that killed him.

"I can see that you are still confused. We are prepared to send you down to
Earth for a second chance at life, but as your body is not living anymore,
and you cannot live throughout your soul alone, we are creating a new identity for
you. If I can tell you the absolute truth, I also had the option which I
had just given you. The only difference is that I failed in my mission. I
was mistakingly taken for my twin brother, who was involved with drugs at
the time and killed. The love for my brother sent me back to Earth, but
like I previously stated, I failed."

Now Daniel was intrigued aswell as a little more hopeful.

"Failed doing what?"

"To prove the love that the person has for you is genuine and pure, I was
sent back with a different identity, with the task of persuing and
recieving the same love from my brother from my new identity. Needless to say
as my brother couldn't care less that his twin brother had died, I
failed. That is your task as of now."

"You mean I have to go back to Earth as a different person, looking
different and everything, and if I can get Joel to love this new person
like he loves... I mean loved me, then I will get my life back?"

"Im glad you finally understand. But it will not be easy. Today is the 11th
of December. As you know Jesus Christ was born on the 25th. If you do not
succeed before that date, I'm very much afraid that you will be indeed
passing on. Remember, under no circumstances may you divulge your true
identity, any phrases, any character traits what would let Joel believe
that you are Daniel. If his love for you are as deep as I believe it be, it
wouldn't matter in what shape or form you appear before him. Do you agree
with all of this?"

Daniel remained quiet for a while. He knew that Joel loved him. They had
known eachother since birth. He knew it was a extremely difficult task to
get Joel to love another person, but he at least had to try. He loved Joel
too much not too.

"I'll do it," he whispered.

"I've arranged everything. And Daniel...if I may ask...please do it for me
as well. You have a much better chance with Joel than I had with Benjy.
There is not a day that goes by that I do not miss him."

Daniel closed his eyes as he awaited his journey back to Earth. He was
going to do this for Joel, no matter how hard it would be. Even if he was
going back as a new person.

"I love you, buddy, I'm coming back for you," he whispered as blinding light
overwhelmed him.
