Falling for the Blind girl (book 1)

I'm still a good guy...right?

I flip my hair a little, getting it out of my face but failing as it flops back down on my forehead.

Its about twelve when I get back to Sammy's house.

"Hey" I say to her when I get to her room

She glares my way when she hears my voice and puts the covers up and over her face.

I put my hands on either side of her head after pulling the blanket down from her face. She puts her hands over her face as if she doesn't want me to see it.

"Hey" I repeat and lean dow n to kiss her

Before my lips can hit hers  she turns her head away as if knowing that I'm about to kiss her. "Don't kiss me, ace" she says

I scuff "why?"

"Don't act like you don't know" she draws her eyebrows together "you know that you invited those girls over to your house"

"So?"

She laughs "so? Are you serious? You have got to be fucking with me right now. I'm your girlfriend and you have those girls over at your house" she rolls her eyes "how is that even remotely right?"

"I didn't do anything with them, baby" 

She turns over and pulls the blankets back up "your a dick"

I sigh and lay in the bed behind her. I wrap my arm over her waist and rub her stomach like I always do.

She sighs and turns over on her back. She slowly reaches for me, her hand on my chest and then her fingers taking a fist full of my shirt. She pulls me to her.

I press my lips to hers and she kisses me back.

"I love you, Sammy" I whisper against her lips

"I love you too, ace" she says, a lump in her throat

I sit in the guest bedroom, on the phone with Tracey. "I mean, you used to be a good guy" she is saying

"What? So I'm not a good guy now?"

I can hear the shrug in her voice "I don't know, ace. Its just that you used to be so innocent and sweet. Now you are the "bad boy" you know?"

"How am I even bad?" I ask

"Well you like to fight for one, you party like crazy, you like to get shit faced every weekend even if its by yourself." She explains "if that's not bad I don't know what is"

I tisk "yeah cuz you have room to talk ms. I sell drugs to all of Xavier high school."

"Hey!" She says with a laugh

I grin "yeah I know about what you do. You sell, you cheat, you lie, you manipulate, you steal, you persuade, you-"

"Okay I get it!"

I laugh "there's more"

"I know there is but I don't want a recap of my whole life that you somehow seem to know so much about. Stalker"

"Stalker?" I laugh "you aren't as private as you think, trace. It doesn't matter though. I think what you do is cool, you know? Get that money, baby"

She giggles "whatever, ace miller"

"You sure do like my name"

"Its cool"

I smile "good cuz I'm the man you've been dreaming of"
