Dream

Here is my Dream.

Two women are in love with the same man. The two women are best friends. One is beautiful, smart, witty, engaging. Women would be jealous of her if she were not so damn likable. The other is also beautiful in a classic old fashioned way. She isn't one that causes you to turn your head, but the more you look at her the more you see her simple charm. She is shy and insecure - very unlike her dear friend. She sits on the sidelines and observes. If you stop to talk to her you will find yourself smiling and at ease.

Girl one has been married and divorced. She is jaded by love, though secretly she wants to experience it again. Girl two is looking for the fairy tail. She wants love and romance, followed by engagement, marriage and kids. 

They both met and dated men (not realizing it was the SAME man), only later do they realize that they have both fallen in love with the same man. He isn't scum, he wasn't dishonest or misleading. He told both women that he was dating another, someone that he liked very much. Despite this, or perhaps because of, both women found themselves drawn to him in a way unlike any other. When they found out that it was the same man, both cried and experienced frustration. Girl two to a more severe extent than girl one, she knew that she was no competition for her friend. Girl one was sad and angry, but then was struck by a novel idea.

Let's share. I love you, you love me (as best friends, neither are interested in romantic relations with the other)... we both love him. Why make him choose? It is the perfect situation. For girl one it is ideal. She doesn't want to get burned again. If she shares, even if it doesn't work out, she will still have her best friend. Girl two would rather share than loose this man that her heart has chosen.

Girl one, while jaded by love, doesn't experience jealousy of her friend. She sees her as a beautiful individual, different from herself, but she likes who she is and the people around her see this. Girl two is insecure and jealous, but somehow in this relationship that forms she find happiness and is content. There are moments of unease, but overall it ends up being a lovely situation. They've chosen to share. Not due to religion, or anything else dark and sinister.

Now. I need to turn this into a book. This was a good dream.

Keep posted as I work out how to take this oddly wonderful dream and turn it into a fiction best seller!
