I ended up hanging out with these 4 brothers on some estate overlooking what might have been Venice. They were all pretty cool and we had fun swimming and talking. Then I met their sisters, who were all as familiar and fun as their brothers... but there was one special, and I was drawn to her and she to me. We spent some time together running around and what not, but she stayed at a distance it seemed. She ran off crying and I was confused, then a sister I had never met showed up and tried to explain to me. This new sister, she was delicate and very white, told me she was dying and had made a pact with the sister I loved. When it was to be her time to die (cancer or some other illness it seemed) it was going to be the one I loved who said goodbye and ended the life support. They might have been twins because I caught a flash back of when they were little girls making this pact and they looked very much a like in age. Once I returned off the flashback I understood that I couldn't take her away and be with her, not until her sister died. I'm sure she knew this and was torn by guilt over waiting for her to die so she could be happy with me. I sat down and thought about everything I had learned and what I was going to do about it. Then I woke up.
Very strange dream, but very vivid. Thought I'd write it down.
