The Dreaming Smile Above the Skin

Ryan lives a quiet, boring, content life. The sensitive side of him: locked in a case. The only friends he truly has are the chirping birds at a local coffee shop he visits every Saturday. He also has a recurring dream with the same man.
What happens when he finally meets this man of his dreams?
Will it be everything he hoped for? Or something he wished he could take back?
How far would this dream man bring him up and break him down emotionally? Unlocking the case and bringing out some of the memories he wished he could forget.
All and all, what happens when he realizes this man isn't completely 'perfect'?
