Young Again, Scene #01

Mitch (Chi Chi LaRue) has a crush on his hot, young across-the-hall neighbor Jordan (Ricky Larkin). Mitch is so smitten with Jordan that his behavior teeters on stalking the younger man. One night, after an awkward encounter with Jordan, Mitch has dark self-harm thoughts. Instead of taking his life, he opens a box of crystals that his sister gave him, reads her inspirational note, and holds the crystals in his hands, wishing that he was young again. Mitch goes to bed and wakes up feeling better than he has in a while. He has more pep in his step and when he catches a glimpse at himself in the mirror, he realizes why. Mitch is himself…but significantly younger (Michael Del Ray). Deciding to take as much advantage of the situation as he can, Mitch makes a play for Jordan. It doesn’t take much for young Mitch to get Jordan into bed. They promise they’ll hook up the next day, but that ends up not happening. When Mitch wakes up the next morning, he’s back to his older self. We don’t know if the hookup ever happened or if it was a dream.
