Every night, Celeste closes her eyes and walks into a city that shouldn't exist - a futuristic city with plants covering the walls of skyscrapers that continue into the grey sky with no end. A place where the humans in it are nothing more than blurry faces, functioning solely as fillers in Celeste's mind. She flies between the buildings and explores in a city too advanced to be real.
When she finds the mall again - the same one from her first dream - everything begins to shift.
As the edges of the blurrs become clearer, and the laws of gravity begin to slip from her control: she meets him. A boy with eyes that doesn't blur into a mess of colors like the others. When she whispers, "This is only a dream for me," he stares at her like she absolutely lost her mind.
Because he hasn't woken up. Ever.
Living two realities at once, Celeste finds the truth within the dream city. The more time she spends in the futuristic world, she wonders when she is truly dreaming.

**CURRENTLY A FEATURED STORY** highest ranking: #11 in Science fiction ❝true happiness is only achieved without freedom. There is a girl who wakes to a world that she was supposed to protect. Instead, she fights it. There is a man who is cursed with the ability to dream.
