Midnight Eyes

Prolouge

On May 9, 1993 my mother cried. My father said everything would be alright. From myvpoint of view now i would say he was wrong. That day I, Shaylee Kane was born. My parents were so happy. Until I opened my eyes. I was born with a curse an old witch cast on my mother. A curse the changed me. The moment I saw the world for the first time everyone looked at me in horror and cried. My eyes were completely black they looked as if i had no eyes at all. I could see just fine but people saw me different. When I turned 10 i was sick of being stared at and treated differently so i bought dark sun glasses to wear all the time. I have been wearing my whole life so far.

Chapter 1

I walked through town with my ray bands sunglasses like usual. For a freak i was pretty much out all the time. But know one new what was under my sunglasses. I started jogging just to get home quick so I could go on my laptop to look for a place of my own. I would be 19 in a few months.  Just then   a jogger ran into me. I fell to the ground. "Ow." i said scrambling to put my sunglasses back on before anyone saw. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry" he said as he helped me up. I looked down and i saw he had prosthetic leg from the knee down. "You should watch it." i said.  "Yeah, Sorry I got distracted." he smirked.

He put his hand out. "I'm Nolan. Nolan Tomas." he smiled. "I'm Jaylee Kame." I lied. "Nice to meet you Jaylee. You live around here?" he asked  as we began walking. "Yeah acutually, I do." I said.  "Do you?" i asked. "Yeah, Yep I live down the road." he said. "Well I've got to get going." i said. "Yeah me too. Hey.

We should hang sometime." he smiled. "Yeah" I lied and smiled. On my way home I thought about Nolan. He was beautiful. He had dark black hair and looked pretty fit. I had to admit I liked him. But he would never see me again. I gave him my fake name. I kinda wished I hadn't though. No I thought I can't fall in love. I have always been afraid I would fall in love and then he would see my eyes amd leave me and call my a freak. Then the whole town would know. At least I know he can't find me. When I got home I completely forgot about my laptop and spent the day drawing. Thats what I loved to do in my pass time.  I drew him. "Ugh!" i moaned and threw my notepad at the wall. "Knock, knock!" said my best friend Zanna as she came into my bedroom. "Hey Zanna, Whats going on?" I smiled. "Nothing, was in the nieghbor and thought I'd stop by." she said. "Oh cool. Hey can I talk to you about something?" I asked. "Yeah what about?" she said still smiling.  

We talked for a while about Nolan and then Zanna left. She told me  I should talk to him again because maybe he'll understand me. I still wasn't sure. Maybe I won't even have to see him again. About an hour after Zanna left I went downstairs and my dad asked me to run to the store and get his afternoon newspaper. So I did. I jogged down the road with my sunglasses high on my face and clumsy me, tripped over a crack in the side walk. I fell hard onto my hands. "Ahh." I gasped. My left hand had a deep gash in it. "Are  you alright?" said a familiar voice. I looked up it was Nolan. "Oh yeah I'm fine." I said. He helped my up by my right hand. "Why do you always have to fall when we meet?" he smiled. I smiled back. He brought me to a pizza place and we sat and talked for a while. We laughed too. Alot. He was so amazing.  I hate to admit but now I know I am in deep. Deeply in love with Nolan Tomas.
