I didn’t believe. How in the world would we make it up there, to an infinite dimension. He told me to believe, that’s all I had to do. Deep breath in, deep breath out, believe. It was us, him and I, together as one. We had the power within us to fly. Two people of another kind. Inside of a field our foreheads touched, our eyes closed, our hearts began to beat as we took off.

I did, and I felt my feet begin to lift from the damp grass. I held him tighter as we began to fly. My eyes closed, now squeezed tighter with fear. The air grew more thin, the higher we lifted, flames around our bodies. Then, before I knew it, there was no longer sound. I just barely opened my eyes to peek, and I saw him, but behind him was the earth. Our earth, so vulnerable and light. I turned my head to gaze at the million stars around us, but then I looked down beneath me, and my belief faded away. Somehow I fell, the both of us did. We dropped down straight toward the earth. I was petrified, as I grasped my other half’s hand. Although, before we hit the ground, something pulled us up, and whispered “Believe”.

“Let’s try this again, shall we?” He said with determination in his eyes, and I agreed. All of a sudden, it was back up toward the stars we went.
