I resisted it for about a month but I finally gave in to falling in love. With Ryan, with manhattan, brooklyn, greenpoint, subways, hot sticky weather, long walks, funny smells, cab drivers, bus drivers, free newspapers, metrocards, williamsburg, the same pizza places on every corner, meatpacking district on a friday night, heels, blisters, no tights, and a few specific diners.

So before you start yelling at me that something isn't right, see if I've stated it as universal fact. Now that I have the 'don't flame me' disclaimer up (and yes I need it, sad as that is), I'll get to the good stuff. A few nights ago I had an absolutely bizarre dream. It involved me being put on trial by the Egyptian pantheon (I believe Everyone was there), with a few of...

Early the next morning, the Prince woke Cassidy and I up at a terribly early hour. "What's happening?" asked Cassidy, her face peaked and pale. I opened my mouth to answer, but Prince Jonathan cut me off. "We are landing in ten minutes' time." He strode to the elegant wooden wardrobe and rummaged through it.
