Fever Dream

“I don’t want to be your secret. I want to be your reality.”

Silence isn't always a lack of feeling. Sometimes it is just Silas trying to keep his own walls standing. He loves so quietly that you almost miss it.

“I’m tired of being the good girl.”

Jane spent her whole life trying to be the perfect daughter. It took a man who was deemed a mess to make her feel like a person. Perfection is a lonely cage.

“You aren't a mistake, Silas. You're a miracle.”

Silas believes he is ruined because of his past. He sees himself as a storm. Jane just sees a man who needs a place to land.

Small towns have long memories. Everyone has a label for Silas before he even speaks. Jane is the only one who bothers to look at his hands instead of his reputation.
