Crys pov I was different. different then everyone else. people told me that my eyes we're quite... clear almost... they told me something was wrong with me.. I knew that.. I knew I was blind... all I saw was black.. everything was dark and bland to me.. there was no beauty in life. Until I met this certain swede.. His name.. Felix.. Felix Kjelburg (sorry if spelled wrong) me.. well I'm Ryan Terry.. but everyone call me Cry.. they call me Cry because of my blindness and how my eyes are a faded blue that looks a bit like water. The only thing I could see.. was the beauty of my special Swede's heart. For he was my one and only love. I was his and he was mine. why am I saying "was"? we're still together! And the best part is.. is that I'm getting married!! I'm so excited! I'm so happy! I get to spend the rest of my life with my special Swede! my special Felix! I love him and he loves me. It will always stay that way.. well.. you ask our story? Well let me just tell you-
It was his eyes. His eyes held me captive. They contained every emotion that I could ever think of and more. They reflected myself back onto me. My pain, my fear, my sadness. There was even a sliver of the happiness that I used to feel a long time ago. His eyes made me remember everything that had happened in my life up to this point.
They also made me forget.
They made me forget almost all of the things that were being reflected back at me as well, like my sadness, my fear, and my pain. They made me forget what it was like to feel hurt, to feel rejected, to feel forgotten.
He kneeled down in front of me, bringing his beautiful eyes closer, so that I could see the starburst of lighter flecks decorating the iris.
"Are you alright?" He asked with a voice as soft as the rain. As soft as the concern he had for a pitiful girl curled up behind the school dumpster in the rain.
I couldn't speak. I was too focused on his eyes through my tear-filled gaze.
"Did someone do this to you?" His voice had an edge of hardness to it now, like a diamond with a sharp edge.
I could only nod.
He fell silent for a few seconds, letting the swelling rain be the only sound between us, before he reached out slowly and scooped me into his arms and lifted me up easily.
"Don't be afraid, okay? I just have to get you somewhere warm and dry, and I have a feeling you don't want to go back into the school." He said, starting to walk. "You're safe with me."
