Tongue Tied ( E. Cullen ).
She arrived in Forks like a whisper, no words, and no sound, just the soft defiance in her eyes and the echo of storms in her silence. Marcie was born deaf and has never spoken a word, but she has always been painfully aware. Her world is built of glances, vibrations, the way people's mouths move when they think she's not watching.
Edward Cullen has heard everything; thoughts, lies, secrets but never silence. When Marcie enters the school, her mind is quiet in a way that doesn't merely block him; it absorbs him. Her thoughts are a closed door he cannot open, and in that silence, he finds something he never knew he longed for: peace.
She did not flinch from him. She did not fear the hollow behind his golden eyes. She only watched, and in watching, she understood.
What began as a curiosity became a hunger, for closeness, for the touch of understanding, for the quiet she wore like a veil. And Edward, who had been alive for a hundred silent years, found himself aching not for her voice, but for the space she held in his silence. The way she made the stillness feel like music.
But Marcie carried her own ghosts, unsaid, unheard, yet deeply known. And there is power in silence, especially when the world forgets to fear it. There is love in it, too.
In a town always clouded by rain, two impossible souls find one another in the space where sound cannot reach ..
And where silence, finally, is seen.
