I see the world alot differently then most people, why you may ask? Probably because I can't really see like most people can. I lost my eyesight about two years ago due to retinitis pigmentosa (RP). When doctor told me I only had a few months left of perfect vision, it felt as of my whole world was crashing down on me. My heart broke as I thought about all the things I couldn't do anymore. But I had to accept it, it was the only way I could have a chance at a normal life.  So I worked my butt off for one year. Then two years past and being nearly blind just became normalicy for me. Until one day when I heard a classmate of mine, was going through something similar. Jeston Wilder was about a enter a strange dark and lonely world. And something inside of me wanted to help, just wanted to go up to him and say 'Take my hand' because nothing says practicality like the blind leading the blind...right?

Many people believe that the blind are only those who can't see. They are wrong. Everyone is blind, in one way or another. Blindness comes in many forms. Those who are blind to the evils of the world are blind to reality. Those who are blinded by beauty are consequently blind to the fact that it comes with a price. And those who are blinded by light are also blind to the notion that it is accompanied by shadows. And though I must admit that I, too, was not above being blind. I knew the shadows all too well. My life was lead in the shadow of a wall; I was born shrouded in it, and if it were up to them, I would die the same way as well. The very moment I began to understand the world around me was the same moment it came crashing down. For at that moment, I realized that this wasn't my world. It was theirs. I had previously said that I was not immune to blindness. I knew I was different, but as they say, everybody is different for a reason. But I was blind to the fact that my reason was him. I was blind to the cruel twist of Fate that allowed my captor to become my liberator, and I was blinded again by the same cruel twist of Fate that made my liberator my captor. I was blind to the implications of making a deal quite literally signed in blood, and I was blind to the fact that it would bind me to the life of another for eternity as we knew it. I was born for him. He was born to kill. But, despite being blind to all this, I swore would never be blind to one thing: Though I may wear the Devil's Heart around my neck and His mark on my skin, I will never call myself a vampire's Compeer.

He meant the world to her until he set eyes on her and couldn't recognize the pain and afflictions behind it. He meant a different person to her until he took her just like one of the many girls running after him. He meant her as that person who wanted to save her instead of allowing her to slide a silent clasp knife against the cold veins. He meant her something more than a singer until he proved that wrong. But even after that she couldn't deny the fact of calling him her savior. Nothing could change that. A savior remains a savior. This story revolves around the two characters broken inside yet living for the sake of others. Layken, She is an ordinary girl but still disparate from others because she is constructed from a past which no one else possess. Too petrified to live it and too confused to end it. But she decides to finally end it until the words echo in her mind. The same words that breaks the ice of that frozen lake revealing those lively hidden traits that she has but is unaware about them. She is the landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature. She is earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature. Ryle Kincaid is somehow connected to her but he doesn't have any idea until one day when he discovers the bitter truth of this universe. He might not want to know about it but no way in the world he can ignore it now. No way in the world he can ignore her now. This is the story of the two broken hearts fusing together, the story of two characters giving reasons to each other to live and not survive or endure. "We will make it for always or if not, then for every day."
