Melting Galaxy

AN: Hey guys, this is the preface for my new story, Melting Galaxy. Enjoy!  =)                                       My dedication is for my dear friend, Ren. A fellow writer,  who through her own courage gave me the strength I needed to do this.

I'd never thought things would end up like this.

I was looking out at one of the world's most beautiful cities, yet I couldn't see it the same way I'd used to. I'd look out at Paris, and feel my heart sigh in joy. A smile would burst through my face. My eyes would hold in awe everything they saw, with a hunger, as though they could never get enough. In truth, they couldn't. Every morning I'd wake, go out to the streets, and long for every moment to never end. I'd wish that I could stay right where I was, forever.

Now I had my back to one of the most beautiful things I could fathom.                                                        

Love.                                                                                                                                                                             

I'd thought I'd been in love with Paris and its wonders. That was until one of those wonders chucked me into a fountain, and proved me wrong. I did love Paris, but I was about to find out what being in love really meant.

I'd never thought things would end up like this.

 Stuck in Seattle while Anna went off to Paris, I didn't think I'd even have the energy to get up in the mornings. We'd seen so much of each other those past few months, that I hadn't quite known what I was going to do without her. I was happy for her, don't get me wrong. I'd just been feeling at a loss for what to do. One night, that changed. On a whim, I'd decided to go to the club that Anna had told me about before-Moonstruck. In the swirling lights of the club, I'd seen them.

Those two boys were going to change my hopes of lazy days.

Radically. 

I'd thought I'd known what it meant to be on the edge. To feel like at any moment the blade would slip, and I'd find myself helpless in mid-air. I'd be falling, expecting nothing but the pain of what was surely to come.  That night- those boys- were going to prove me wrong.

AN: I really hope you liked that. It was partially inspired by "so much" by jaymyccah, on deviantart.com. You guys should check it out, the lyrics on it pretty much explain the title. =P  My story and characters won't be exactly like in his picture, but he should get some credit. Thanks jay!
