I stared silently from afar. I could see his perfect face contorted in concentration as he studied, staring at nothing the entire time. He looked straight ahead. His fingers glided over the pages of the book, passing only slightly as he felt the pattern of each individual block of dots. His beautiful green eyes were covered by sunglasses. He was blind. And he was ashamed.
Everyone has their flaws. Alice was too preppy, too energetic, she was on one thing, and once you caught up to her, she was off about something else. She had ADHD. Emmett couldn't control himself, he was extremely friendly and all, a huge teddy bear. But if you angered him, he wouldn't be able to control himself. And it didn't help had huge muscles. Emmett had anger management issues. Jasper was extremely emotional. If he was happy, he was overjoyed, as though he had won the lottery, if he was sad, he would be depressed, nothing could bring him out of his dramatic mood swings. Except for Alice. Rosalie was too perfect. Her features were beautiful. Her eyes were gorgeous, clear blue orbs, her blond hair was in perfect waves that looked like a ton of time has been used in making it, but it also looked extremely natural. And it was. She was OCD. And she needed everything to be perfect according to her ways. Apparently, Emmett was far from perfect in her eyes. I was extremely shy, I was a mute. I couldn't say anything. Now, I repeat: Everyone has their flaws. But in Edward, I could find none.
His blindness wasn't a flaw, it only added to his perfection. He studied hard, and got good grades. He was athletic because of all the weight lifting he did with Emmett, although Em was a lot buffer. His unkept bronze hair was always flawless. In my eyes Edward was perfect. And I knew him, and had a crush on him. I don't think I can call it love just yet. Because he doesn't know me. He knows I exist, but he doesn't know know me. All because I won't talk. He talks to me though, he made me feel… normal. Well, as normal as it gets.
Here, it is normal to have flaws. And I don't mean regular human flaws, I mean
flaws like ours, like blindness. This is our school, our home. The place where our flaws are accepted. And where I found my first ever crush.
