"I'll Be You," by Travis Richardson, in The Desperate and the Damned, edited by Sandra Ruttan, Toe Six Press, 2019.
Third appearance here by Richardson. Chris met Kevin when they were both playing hockey in high school. Kevin was trouble back then, dealing drugs, doing worse things. Now its twenty-years later and he sees only one way out of his difficulty. Swap faces, and lives, with Chris. Chris isn't in favor of this but, hey, he doesn't get a vote.
Highly implausible but as fast moving as a hockey game.
