I'm not very good with forewords, I'm sorry.

This story came to me as a dream last night, actually. I have another story that I wanted to work on, and another story after that, but this one just won't go away. I figure since it is pretty short, I could get it out quickly, but the angst... Oh it made it hard. I've never written an angsty story before. Ever. Even in school. Any time we had to write, my stories would always come out as comedies. Sometimes just because of the snark that I couldn't hep putting in, sometimes because I actually wanted them to be funny. So when this story popped into my head last night, I decided to take the challenge and put it to paper.

I hope you... well, not enjoy, but I hope the story moves you.
