Eva Willow, a 17 year old blind girl who moves to a new town with her two sisters to live with her uncle. She has a lot of secrets and wants to lay low through her final years of school and keeping an eye on her sisters. Can she lay low or will she...
It was now 7:00 and Brody messaged Cara saying they would be here in 20. She is so excited about going out tonight. I tried not to think about how I feel this is risky and to let her enjoy it. I would be there tonight to keep watch over her. Well, not literally. I sigh and shake my head at my inner thoughts.
Cara has spent the last two hours pull and tugging at me to finally tell me that she said i was ready. She had straightened my hair and and a smoky eye to my face making my blue eyes pop out. She had found a black dress where the top was mostly lace and bottom half hug to me like a second skin except for a slit that was on my leg.
Cara described herself to me saying she straightened her hair as well letting it cascade down to her waist. She did minimal finish on her makeup and was wearing a red silk dress that had a low v cut and pushed off at the hips.

"Eva, Cara!" My uncle Drake says coming into the living room. "Wow, you ladies look divine!" He kisses both of us on the cheeks.
"Thank you Uncle." Cara says. We hear a honk outside so Cara rushes off saying bye to Uncle. She heads to the door.
Uncle gently pulls my forearm and leans to my ear. "Do you have it with you?"
I nod my head while he kisses my head. "Have fun and try not to use it."
I go to the front door where Cara is waiting and she links arms with me before opening the door. When we step out of the front door, the evening breeze hits me causing me to take a deep inhale and enjoy the smell. I hear a car door open and turn towards the sound.
"Wow, you ladies look incredible." Brody says coming towards us.
"Thank you!" Cara says while I look down at the ground.
"So we hope you don't mind but we will be meeting Marcus there so for now we're all going to take Asher's Hummer to get there. You ladies are in the back with me."
He leads the way to the vehicle and goes to help Cara in. "Actually if it's okay with you Cara needs to sit in the middle."
"Okay, here let me help you." He gently takes my hand while I use the step up to get in. I begin scooting over while Cara and Brody come in behind me. The same scent front the cafe is here so I know its the same person that sat next to me. Cara once again links her arm in mine and does a single tap to my arm and I nod understanding.
*Flashback*
"Leila, you have to tell me when you are not feeling comfortable, or you think something is wrong. I can't read your facial expressions." I say getting frustrated with her yet again.
"I can't just come out and say it in front of people!" She yells back.
"She's right Eva, we need to come up with a system to signal each other." Cara says keeping a level voice.
"Fine, what do you suggest?" I turn towards Cara.
"How bout this-" I feel her take my arm. "I single tap means we are fine, a double tap means there could be danger and not to proceed further."
I nod my head in understanding and look back to Leila. Leila then links my other arm and does a single tap. I let out a breath of air i didn't know i was holding and pull them both towards me for a side hug.
*End of Flashback*
"So I don't think we actually have met, I'm Parker and this here is Asher." The guy in the passenger seat turns around towards us and sticks his hand out. Cara takes it and begins shaking it. His scent tells me he was the one staring at Cara earlier.
"I'm Cara, and this is my twin Eva.d" Cara says leaning her head towards me.
"Twin!?" Brody and Parker say in unison. I smirk while Cara giggles.
"We are fraternal twins, not identical... obviously." I state bluntly.
"Hey this club were going to allows in under 21?" Cara ask.
"Yes and no, Parker's family owns it so we get in. Were all 17, how old are you girls?" Brody ask.
"Same" We say in unison causing Cara to giggle.
"Do you guys do that often? I mean are you able to finish each others sentence and stuff?" Parker ask.
I really want to be a smart ass and retort with yes we can also read each other minds but I know it would be rude. I instead just do an eye roll while Cara answers no for us.
"Where do you guys go to school?" I speak up and ask.
"Were going into our Junior year at Northview. How bout you ladies?" Brody ask.
"Same for us." I state back.
"So ladies, tell us a little about yourselves." Brody says turning his body more towards us.
"Well I'm a dancer, and love to sketch. I don't really play any sports other than playing soccer with our little sister. I am the younger one between the two of us." Cara says and then gently taps my arm.
"I'm obviously the older one, I taught Cara how to dance, and I love boxing." I say while looking at the window.
"How can you box?" I'm guessing this is Asher since I haven't heard his voice so far on this ride.
"You don't have to be able to see to feel the movements of your opponents." Cara nudges my side, which is her way of telling me to be nice, hitting my ribs making me grunt.
"Well, Asher here is the top boxer at our gym." Parker says sounding proud.
"Interesting.." I say back.
"Maybe you two can go at it sometime?" Brody chirps in.
I smirk while I hear a chuckle from the front. Does he really not think I can take him? "Actually that sounds great." I say forcing a smile.
"I don't think it would be fair of me to rough you up-" he says but I cut him off.
"Why, because i'm a girl or because I am blind?" I say turning my head towards the front seat.
"Neither, it's because your small." He says while shifting in his seat. Arrogant ass..
"How bout this, next time we meet in a gym... I'll show you what this small girl can do?" I say while the car starts chuckling at my attitude. Cara gently grips my arm which is her way of telling me to calm down. I let out a deep breath to calm myself.
"We're here," Parker says turning towards his door. I hear all the car doors opening including my side door. Cara lets go of my arm sliding out the other door. I begin to slide towards her until I feel a gentle hand coming from my door. I begin to shiver at the touch. He gently grips my hand to help me out my door. I step down and slightly stumble feeling him put his hands on my waist to steady me. I stand up straight but he keeps his hands there. I look towards where I feel his eyes still on me.
"You can let go of me now Asher." I say smirking. I abruptly feel the warmth of his hands leave me but return when he places my hand inside the hook of his arm and starts walking us towards our friends.
