At some point, in the silences, I heard you.


"Ben tells Sean he wants to forgive Felicity, but he doesn't know how. Later, in his room, Ben reads Felicity's letter. She says she dreamt once that she lost him. They were on icebergs. She can't remember if he was floating away from her or if she was floating away from him. She remembers waking up beside him. It was the middle of the night and it was raining - like tonight and she heard his breathing calming her. It was like they could speak without words. She wondered how and when they learned it - this secret language. She only knows that some point in the silences she heard him. And now she's left with words - these useless words? when all she wants is to be beside him again - to make him feel safe - to help him sleep - to bring him back to her. "
