Two shadowy figures walked toward each other, their gazes locked. With every step they took, they became more clear, the orange light flickering off of their almost-naked bodies. From where I stood, only their faces remained hidden.
The second they touched, my body lit up. As the man’s hands circled the woman’s hips, I felt his fingers dig into my own body.

She had the very same blue eyes I had been looking at in the mirror my whole life. The woman in the vision was me…
