Trust?

Do you Trust her?

Tanner POV

Quentin comes into my room as I'm editing and talking to Dylan and I look up to say hi but see he has a girl with him. She's looking down not even bothering to look at us or the room she's in. Rose jumps off of my bed and runs to her to meet her and she freaks out like she's never been near a dog before and Quentin immediately pulls Rose away from her. I guess she's scared of dogs? Dylan gets up to say hi and extends his hand out to shake while introducing himself but she doesn't shake his hand...That's strange...she says her name but I can't hear it because of how soft she is talking but I can tell that she's stuttering. Dylan brings Rose back to the bed and she jumps up so I pet her to keep her here. I see Quentin whisper something to her and she nods slightly.

"Tanner, Dylan, this is Crystal, I ran into her on my walk over and she is um..she's blind" He says and realization hits me. Thats why she didnt look up let alone shake Dylan's hand. Right as I think that Dylan's hand instantly droped to the side.

"She doesn't have anywhere to stay right now so she is going to be staying with me." He says and I think for a moment.

"Can we talk?" I ask him while getting off my bed. I walk outside of my room while he tells Crystal and helps her to my bed. He then walks out and I think for a second to figure out how I should put this.

"Quentin how well do you really know her?..I mean how do you know you can really trust her?" I ask

He replies "I know her well enough to want to help her. I offered to help her get to where she needed to go but she said she didn't have any place to go so I couldn't just let a blind girl walk around aimlessly when she physically and mentally didn't know where she was going. She can't exactly be dangerous"

"I get that but what about her family? They're probably worried sick about her. We can't just keep her here"

"First of all its not like I kidnapped her. I asked her if she trusted me enough to come with me and she said yes. Secondly, she's not staying here she's staying with me."

I sigh thinking then say "It's your choice but I would suggest getting to know her a little more before just trusting her. I know she's probably harmless but still. Now I have to finish editing I have like maybe ten minutes left, after how about we all go to Taco Bell or something to eat?"

He nods and before walking back in I ask him,

"Are you sure we can trust her?" He replies with a firm yes and walks back into my room so I go in behind him and see Luna on Crystals lap with Dylan next to her.

Dylan POV

They leave and I am just kinda standing here looking at her. I don't really know what to say or do and I take a deep breath when I see her head move a little. I'm guessing she heard me..does she realize I stayed in here?

"So, how old are you?" She flinches when I talk and I feel bad so I slowly sit next to her and Luna crawls onto my lap. Rose is just laying on the bed sprawled out.

"S-seventeen" she says, well whispers almost. I nod and look down realizing she is shaking a little.

"Do you like dogs?" I ask and she shrugs a little.

"Well I have a little black puppy here, if you want I can set her on your lap" she nods after a second of thinking and I can see there was a little bit of hesitation but I pick up Luna and gently set her on Crystals lap.
(Obviously this takes place back when she was still a small puppy)

"This is Luna" I say and she slowly lowers her hand onto Luna's back petting her softly when Tanner and Quentin come back in and Luna jumps off of her lap running to them. She jumped a little when all of that happened. I wonder how long she's been blind..was she born this way?
