"The former might of the abandoned cathedral was ever-present as Jason approached the massive wooden doors. He pulled on the tarnished bronze latch, and the doors roared and creaked open... He slowly traversed the spiral staircase as the light filtered in through the windows, creating a mystical landscape within the walls of the old church. The stairs groaned under his feet with every step. As he reached the top step, he was met with a long hallway. There appeared to be a faint light flickering in the room at the end of the hall. He timidly approached, unsure if someone (or something) was waiting for him. He peered into the room. In the corner sat an old piano, a lit candle's flame slow-dancing on top. The shadow of a moth darted around the faintly illuminated walls. As he approached the piano, he could see dust floating in the candlelight. There was a handprint, cast in negative space where the soot once covered, seemingly created only moments ago..." Love and heartbreak, two feelings linked across time and space. Some would say they make up the 4th dimension in our 3-dimensional universe. This mythical tale tells the story of a boy who discovers these feelings in an inexplicable way, not bound by what we perceive to be reality. Not bound by plausibility or our three dimensions. But, hey. That's what fiction is for, right?

I knew what was coming later tonight, not only at home, but on the way there. I knew that reacting right now would just make it worse though. So I kept quiet and pretended that I was not dreading when I would be alone with the man that stood beside me, wondering when it became so normal to do so. Jason and Alicia have the perfect relationship from the outside looking in, but Alicia has kept her wounded spirit and body hidden well. After another one of Jason's violent rages that is impossible to hide, Alicia is finally able to get away from the abuse though. In the process of healing, she begins to relearn what trust, compassion, and safety are once again - that is, until Jason discovers her whereabouts.
