Prologue
The first time it happened was when Luke was 16. It was the most uneventful dream he ever had of him. He only saw the eyes. The bright sea green eyes that had seen far too much for a boy his age. At the time Luke didn't know what age that was yet.
Seems like a boring dream right? Well, it was. But Luke couldn't help but keep staring into the eyes. He kept staring until he was sure that if someone asked, he could draw the exact same eyes. But then again, it wouldn't look as good on paper as it did in real life. It wouldn't look... alive enough. It may sound stupid, but he swore that he saw different shades of sea green that refused to stay put. He concluded that this boy had the most ADHD eyes ever.
But it wasn't just the color of the eyes that amazed him. The other half was the emotion hidden underneath. The boy looked sad, lonely, afraid and hurt. It made Luke feel sorry for him, even though he didn't know what caused those emotions. But there was something in the eyes that surprised him even more than the sadness.
It was hope. Hope, loyalty, kindness and determination. He didn't understand how the boy could feel al those emotions at once. It also made him curious. Curious to learn more about the boy. He wanted, maybe even needed to know how this boy managed to deal with all the darker emotions, and still be able to laugh. He swore to himself that he would find out. He didn't know how, but he would.
And he did find out. The dreams didn't stop. Every night he would dream of the boy, and every night he would learn something new.
