In New York City, America their lived Mathew Kalison who lived in a small street his entire life in an apartment building that was only a few stories tall, when he stood on his balcony he saw the few people that lived in the street bustle back and forth along the thin grey path that lead to the train station. Mathew saw a dull and hideous street full of dull people. Sarah Anetie lived in Connecticut for over a third of her life before moving to New York City where dreams were made and hopes inspired. Moving into a small street with short apartment buildings and low class citizens shuffling through their lives, Sarah made a home out of the one room apartment. When she looked out over her balcony she saw a grey river that little people swam around in on their way to the train station. Sarah saw a majestic and historical street full of majestic people. Though this story is of both Mathew and Sarah, we shall follow Mathew seeing as his story is fare longer and a lot more painful than Sarah's. We can see the sunflower balcony much better from the fourth floor anyway.

LUCAS I sat next to her on the couch and brushed her hair from her face. She was all sweaty. " Lucas ..?" She hummed. " I'm here.." " I'm sorry, I'm an embarrassment..." I chuckled. "No you're fine you just drank too much. We were trying to sober you up, then we found you at the bar drinking shots!" It was really a funny sight as I recalled. " Lucas ?" Her eyes pried open again and she stared at me. "Yeah?" " Will you stay with me tonight?" SKYLAR He hugged me again. I could never get enough of his hugs, and still I wanted more. I wanted more than that with him. It hurt so much knowing that it could never be so. "Don't be sorry, I'm just happy I got to you in time." Lucas' voice was so gentle, so sweet and sincere. If I didn't pull away from him I would start to cry again. I held my breath, my hand pressed a little more on his back. As I did this though I felt him tense up from my touch. "S-sorry," I stammer and attempted to pull away, but he brought me back into his chest. "Don't." his voice was firm. "Don't...let go." ********************************************************************* Their near death experience on a flight to NY causes two strangers to meet.
