Summary
This week he’s entered Friday from a sleepless night, and as such, set out before the sun. Only now, with the rocky expanse he’s been trekking towards for several hours coming into view, do the stars begin to fade from their homes above him. He pauses for a long drink of water and watches them retreat from the eastern horizon and across the sky.
Sometimes he thinks the stars mirror the pain he feels, even when the sun hides them, with all its light and warmth and goodness, they remain unmoved, needing only a moment of darkness to shine forth once more.
The hurt from loss, Dream has decided, is as permanent as the stars are. Sure, they are bound to die and fade in time, but likely not within his life. He has long since come to terms with the fact that no matter how much sun he fills his days with, the stars will be there behind it, ready to shine out as soon as the darkness of night arrives.
The stars will always haunt the sun.
Or; Dream meets a unique stranger in the woods and and they fall into a tangle of destiny to save each other.
