Falling for the Blind girl (book 1)

the truth comes out

I give Sammy another pair of my boxers and a black T-shirt that says WILD BOY across the back.

She quickly comes out of the bathroom and sits on my bed, her eyes distant.

I have a feeling that the roomer about how she lost her sight is true. Everything I have seen thus far, everything I have heard thus far, it all seems true.

And I think that its time

"Sammy" I begin "how did you lose your sight"

She sucks in a breath and turns her head towards me "I was shot in the temple" she says softly, playing with her fingers "I instantly went blind"

"Why were you shot?"

This definitely has an effect on her. She cringes at the thought. "Um" she says, her eyebrows coming together. "Well danny at the time was in the streets. He was selling drugs and working for bad people." She licks her lips "and I was working with danny. We were out all night and slept during the day." She shakes her head "it wasnt healthy."

I stare at her

"One day, a different drug dealer that had problems with danny taking his business, came over and..." She sighs "I didn't know that they had problems and I answered the door. He instantly bombarded us and he shot danny in the chest and me in the head. Then they ran out, thinking that we were dead."

She shrugs "I woke up in the hospital and began going into panic attacks, completely going crazy because I knew I was opening my eyes but everything was black, I couldn't see." She leans back against the pillows "it took me a long time to understand and get used to it. But here I am"

I nod, taking it all in "is that what the tattoos are from?"

She nods "yeah, danny did them one night."

"You aren't into that stuff anymore right?"

She laughs "no I'm not" then she begins to cough

"Here" I scoot closer to her and pull her into my arms and she shivers. I pull my comforter over us and we snuggle into it.

"Your so sweet, ace" she says "I've never met anyone like you"

I smile and kiss the top of her head "I haven't met anyone like you either"

"You know, its weird" she whispers "I keep having this dream that we are kissing in your hallway next to your bathroom."

My heart beats faster "well I have to tell you something"

"Hmm?"

I take a breath "remember yesterday night when I had that get together with those girls?" She nods "well you were drunk and high and just going crazy. And you came into the hall as I got out from the bathroom and you kissed me." I say "w-well I kissed you back...and we kissed for quite a while"

Her heart beats fast and I can tell that she is becoming nervous "were you sober?"

I think about lying but then deside against it "yeah"

"And you let me kiss you while you knew I was in a different state?"

"Yes" I sigh

Not getting the response I thought I was going to get, I stare startled as she just hurries herself deeper into my chest and nods. "Okay"

"Okay?"

"Yeah" she bites her lip "I don't mind that I kissed you." She says and looks up at me "I just wish that I could have been sober to remember it or feel it" her eyes drift to my lips and mine drift to hers.

I lick my lips and put a hand behind her neck, tilting her head up. "Can I...can I...kiss you?"

She puts a hand on my chest "yes"

Slowly but surely I inch my face closer to hers. Her lips part slightly and so do mine. I feel my lips lightly touch hers and I close my eyes.

We close our lips and I feel her shudder against me.

We part our lips again but this time let my tongue enter her mouth but not in a sloppy way but in a romantic, slow way.

She sits up as we kiss and staddles my lap. I put my hands on her thighs as hers go around my neck.

My door busts open and we quickly pull apart.

Tracey stops short when she sees us "um" she looks away "uh, sorry I can l-late" she stumbles and pulls a baggie out of her pocket "I'll just set those there" she sets them on my desk and begins to leave

"Tracey!" I call but she closes the door

I quickly scoot Sammy off of me and chase after Tracey. "Hey!" I grab her arm and we stop on the stairs

"What?" She turns to me, her eyes filling with tears.

"What's wrong?"

She points over my shoulder at my room "don't act like what you did back there was nothing!" She says

"But we aren't together, trace" I step closer to her

She looks down "but its only been a few days and you are already kissing her"

I cup the side of her face in my hand "baby, you have to understand. We weren't together all that long either."

"Because you cheated on me!"

I sigh "I don't want to have to bring that up again"

"I just...miss you, ace"

"Your with me almost every day"

She shrugs "I know"

"I miss you too, trace" I tell her and smile when she gives me a warm smile. I point to my cheek "gimmi a kiss"

She laughs "no"

"Come on"

She rolls her eyes and kissed my check

****

"What did Tracey say?" Sammy asks as we lay back on my bed

"Don't worry about it" I tell her

"But you still like each other" she says

"No I don't"

She raises an eyebrow "I hear the way you talk about her and the way you talk to her. I can't see be but I'm not stupid."

I groan "I still have feelings for her but we aren't together anymore so it doesn't matter."

"What does this make us?"

I hate that question "I'm not sure yet"

She laughs "you aren't sure yet? Well I don't kiss guys who are just my friends."

I chuckle "then I guess we'll have to figure something out"

"I guess so"
