"If you meet me in person,

somewhere public,

I can explain.

Please come alone."

Oh, my God. Are you going to?

I don't know, should I?

I think you have to.

This is the coolest,

creepiest thing

that has ever happened.

Tell me you're alone.

You're alone, right?

I'm sorry, do I know you?

Oh, Nathan sent me.

Oh, um...

Where is Nathan?

He's here.

In a way. I mean, he's not,

like, "here" here,

but he also wasn't there

on Friday when you met him.

Or you thought

that you met him.

You know, you actually didn't.

What?

Today I'm Megan.

The day that you met Nathan,

I was Nathan. All right?

And the day that Amy shadowed

you at school, I was Amy.

And the day that you went

to the beach with Justin...

I was Justin.

Because I am someone

who wakes up

in a different body every day.

Always someone my age.

Never too far from the last,

never the same person twice,

and I have absolutely

no control over any of it.

Okay, did Rebecca

tell you I'd be here?

She wasn't supposed

to tell anyone.

I don't know why it happens,

I don't know how.

I mean, this is...

No one's ever tried

to explain it to me.

And this is the first time

I've ever actually

told anyone about it.

And I know

I'm not doing a good job.

Okay. Um...

Thank you.

This is all very good,

but I think I should go.

"You have a nice smile."

That was the fortune

that you got.

The fortune that we both got.

You told me about the day

that your dad got laid off.

You told me about

the French restaurant.

Okay, just stop.

I told Justin those things,

not you.

He has nothing

to do with this.

He's the only one who does.

I spent the day with him.

And now he and you and Nathan,

and God knows who else

are playing some stupid joke.

And, honestly,

I don't even want to know why.

So just, please, stop.

He doesn't talk to you

like this.

He doesn't spend days with you

like the one that

we had together, okay?

He doesn't see you.

You have to know

that that wasn't him.

It's not possible.

It is.

Hey.

Hey! I'm all right.

I seem not all right to you?

I'm fine.

Great.

Do you wanna study at my place

after school?

- "Study."

- Who's Megan?

I don't know any Megan.

Did you tell anyone

about what I told you about

what happened with my dad?

Um...

Honestly, I don't

even remember

what you told me

about your dad.

What's wrong with you?

Are we hanging out or what?

Whatever.

Hey! It's me, A.

Oh.

Hi. Um...

Wait, "A"?

He's James, but I'm A.

Like, just A, like the letter.

I'm still not convinced

that this is real.

Who named you A?

I did. I wanted a name that no

one else was likely to have.

Okay, the day you were Justin,
