"Imagine this. You wake up one morning. It's a morning like any other. Except today, you love someone. YOU, Mr. Impossible, have feelings for someone else. And not just any someone, a perfect somebody. And they have those feelings for you, too."

"That's a load of bullshit," I scoff, watching as she sets the magazine down.

"Not for us," she replies. "This fits you perfectly!"

"Are you calling me 'Mr. Impossible'?" I ask her, snatching the magazine. It's blank. "You are!" I grin and she smiles back.

"But you're my Mr. Impossible. And that's all that matters."

"Whatever. How does it end?"

"With you waking up."

And just like that, I awoke from my dream.

Ash is alone. He makes more of an effort to clean his roof than he does communicating with other humans. And that's saying something. All he has is a sister who stops by every Friday to raid his fridge.

But then Alice comes along. She's a breath of fresh air. She's everything he isn't. She's happy. And it becomes her goal to make sure he feels the same, despite him hating her at first glance.

But then feelings get involved, people get hurt, and happiness becomes complicated.
