It's 2040, and 18-year-old Tiana admits to sleeping through most of her life.  But Ben woke her up.  How could he not?  All those scars intrigued her.  They may be an odd couple, but being cast as some sort of Romeo and Juliet never made much sense.  They weren't bothering anyone.  They were just having fun and saving the world for each other.  Unfortunately, a car accident has a way of putting an end to fun and big dreams.  When Tiana wakes up in the hospital, she finds herself separated from Ben by lost memories and strange circumstances.  And the mysterious world is just about to get more mysterious.  Without warning, the human race suddenly faces extinction when an inexplicable affliction takes the life of anyone who falls asleep (you sleep, you die).  With the clock ticking, Tiana and Ben fight to reunite, desperate to seize as much life and love as time will allow.  But these two are about to face an even bigger existential challenge.  If love conquers all, it has one hell of a fight on its hands.

"I got you something." He told her pulling away, while she watched him curiously until he pulled out a pandora bag. Her eyes widened at the necklace with an infinity symbol in crested with small little diamonds. "How you even afford this kari?" She questioned, unable to take her eyes off of it. "Shit, my savings." He rubbed the back of his head that possessed his starter loc twists. "That was so nice of you, you didn't have too." She smiled softly finally looking at him, "Can you put it on me?" He stood behind her and she moved her hair out of the way as he put it around her neck and clipped it back together. Her hand immediately went to it. "I'm never gone take it off." She promised him turning to face him. "I love you kari." "I love you too, hone. Til Infinity." --- When an unfortunate sequence of events suddenly separates two bestfriends, Dakari and Honesty, with no plausible reason, it's shakes up the world of the two inseparable individuals. With no goodbyes shared, Dakari was left feeling alone and heartbroken by the sudden disappearance of the only person outside of family that he cared for deeply. The outside world declared Dakari mad at the world, and he didn't think he could ever get over the missing void created by her absence. When honesty finds herself back where it all began, she discovers the hard way that Dakari no longer wants anything to do with her. The unexpected reunion rekindles unbearable memories of their deep connection and the painful separation that slowly but surely leads them back to each other. It's up to them to pick up the pieces of their broken friendship as they confront their past and face what's in store for their future, whether it's together or apart. They must decide if their love is strong enough to hurdle over the obstacles sent their way from every angle. Is true love worth fighting for no matter how long it takes?
