Chapter 1
"Okay, that's fantastic. Yue put your hand on your face and make that bored face of yours and turn at 3 o'clock" The photographer instructs Yue, which she compiled and do as the photographer asked her to do.
"Okay, that it. Nicely done Yue, okay guys that's all. Let's wrap all of it, that's was great job guys. Thank you Yue, you are fantastic out there. Damn I must say whoever say that you can't success in modelling world is an ass. You better don't listen to them you got it Yue, I will beat them when I hear those ass talk about you like that"
Yue chuckled when she hear what the photographer say, he is one of her bestfriend since her university days. Even though the both of them majoring in different field but that didn't stop the both of them being friend. Not only that how many blind people who have graduate from a college or university. It is quite rare to see it, yet it never stop Yue, even though she's been bullied all the time but she never care about those as long she can finish her studies and do the thing that she love the most.
"Thank you Kendrick, but you don't have to do those. I'm sure I can take care of myself, you don't have to worry."
Kendrick huffed when Yue speak like that, he didn't blame on what happen to Yue. Not only that he never saw a human being interact with him a vampire, yet her personalities soothed him. He have saw her been bullied for quite sometimes and on that time for some odd reason something snap inside of him seeing her been bullied. He been compelling and sucked they blood who have bullied Yue.
He know that Yue is blind but he never thought that she will be the most polite human being that he have meet. Sometimes he felt so small in front of this blonde girl and knowing her adopted twin sibling is a witch and vampire also make him perked up. He have never saw a witch who will not look at him with sneer, he must say that her siblings is quite the intrigue too.
Almost all holiday time he will spend with the Noah families and he must say that for the first time in his entire life, he felt like he have been gifted a second family. Kendrick woke up from his trance when he saw that Yue is no longer front of him.
'Oh shit, where the fuck she gone too. Damn it, why it have to be so many people right now. I'm so dead if Miranda knows about this. Damn these flowers!'
"Hey Kendrick, eh where's Yue?" Miranda asked while looking for her sister, since today is quite crowded at Brooklyn Botanical Garden, she didn't wish to missed her older sister and not only that since Malik have to go to Virginia, it's her place to make sure her oldest sister didn't run from them. Yue have a habit who love to walked alone without they noticing, and since Malik have become vampire, it make them easy to trance Yue.
But since today is quite crowded, she didn't wish to missed her at all. She will curse herself if she did missed her older sister, she also can't do her magic with so many people. "Well look who's here, speak of a devil then they shall appear" Kendrick gave Miranda a nervous laughed as he start to rub his neck, upon seeing those action, Miranda eyes turn big. She look over all the crew that she know, and she start to look for her sister stuff and white cane.
When she saw the stuff still there but no white cane, she become worried and start to panic. Miranda gave a glare on Kendrick and start to run to search for her older sister. 'Oh I wish Malik is here, Malik sure good in tracking Yue' .Miranda ignore Kendrick yell and start to look over her older sister without care to the world. Her older sister safety is the most important for her.
The smell of fresh flowers all around making Yue hum with delight as she slowly walked around the Botanical Garden. She accepts the job in heartbeat when she hear the photoshoot will be done in Botanical Garden and the photographer will be one of the bestfriend in her universities time.
Yue walked aimless until she felt that her feet hurting, she try to search any bench using her white cane, as she felt and hear a metallic sound, slowly she touch what front of her to make sure it is a bench. When she know that it is a bench, slowly she sat while inhale the smell of fresh flowers.
Since the weather is nice, somehow she felt the situations are so fitting with the theme for today photoshoot and somehow the Botanical Garden is also quite fitting for the flowery theme. Yue took a deep breath as she slowly remember the day both her siblings bickering about how they don't wished to be far away from her and their mother.
Flashback
"I got into Duke University" Malik said with frown.
"I got into Pennsylvania University" Miranda said. Both twin said with frown while the family having a dinner, Yue can tell that the twin is having something unsaid other that those application that their received.
"Both of you have other things wish to tell me and mother? I can tell that both of you wish to go there but something holding you to go there, am I right Miranda, Malik?" Yue voice always gave a calmed and collective tone which make the twin nod and a 'yeah' can be hear in the dinner table.
"It's true child?" Jesseline asked. The twin worried for making their mother mad, even though they never saw or heard her getting mad but they never wish to make it appear.
"Yes mother" the twin said in stimulates.
"What make both of you unhappy?"
"It just that"
"We don't wish to leave you two"
"We hate to be far from both of you"
"And we never be far from both of you"
Yue and Jesseline chuckled when the twin speak by turn, for anyone who heard it might think it as annoying but for Yue and Jesseline, it feel hilarious to heard them speak like that.
"Miranda get to be near sister and you mother, but me. I have to be at North Carolina, hey Miranda how about you change place with me. I go to Pennsylvania and you go to Duke"
Miranda gasped and glare on Malik while Yue shake her head and start to chuckled which followed by her mother. "Now now, Malik don't be like that. How about this, every time you twin have a break, we will visit you. By the way Malik, we have a house in Virginia, Mystic Falls. It a small town over there, you can stay over there. It will take 2 hours to go to Duke, but at least you don't have to worry about the house, while Miranda will live with Yue. Is that okay with you?" Jesseline look at her twin with pride.
Both her children is accept to the university that they wish to be, she also know that the both of them take a course that their sister can't even study and love to do it since she a child. When the twin came to her room one time to asked for her opinion, she almost crying when Malik said that he wish to study a creative writing while Miranda musicology for their older sister. The twin know that Yue love to read and hear a music but since she is blind, all of those things are hard for her.
"You promise mother? You promise that you will come to visit every time I have a break? Wait did you say we have a house in Virginia? How come we didn't know about that?" Malik look to his mother with wide eyes, not only that he and Miranda never go there at all.
"It doesn't matter at all my child, I quite forgotten about the house. Do you remember the small town that we go on summer break when you still small Yue?"
"Of course I remember mother, the air over there is quite refreshing. It's a good choice for us to get out from the business too" Yue smiled to her mother, sure it is small but what she didn't wish to tell her mother is sometime the people over there is quite rude. She didn't wish to see her mother sad because of what other people said to her. She know that her own mother will put them in shamed for what they said to her, but she wish to grew a backbone so she will not tell her mother anything of what the people in Mystic Falls said to her.
End Flashback
Yue been woke up by her trance when she felt someone sat on the benched that she sit. The smell of earthy been fill on her, the smell is quite nice and calmed. Indeed she love the smell of the flowers but the smell of the person that sat next to her is over power the smell of the flowers.
"The weather quite nice, don't you think?"
The male that sat next to Yue spoke, the heavy British accent that she heard is enough to make her know that this person who sat next to her is from there. Yue smiled as she never expected that she will hear that accent again other than from her families.
"It is, the weather is quite lovely and not only that, the smell also quite tranquil too" Yue smiled warmly to the man who sat next to her. Meanwhile the man look at her with wondered as to why she keeps closing her eyes.
"I know it's a little bit rude, but may I ask to why you keep closing your eyes? My apologize if my question offend you ms.."
Yue chuckled, she never expected to be question on the bat but it also her fault too as she already fold her white cane right after she sat on the benched, not only that she never expected someone can be quite polite for a blind person like her too. "No, I didn't take that as offend at all, the name is Yue Noah. The reason I close my eyes because I am blind"
The man next to her tense right after she said that she is blind, but again she assure him that those question didn't make her offended at all. Meanwhile on the other side, Miranda look over her sister with worried and upon seeing her older sister with the man that both her and her twin working before making her ease. She look from the other side, she never see her older sister smile and chuckled so carefree. It is the first time she saw her older sister act like that. She record it from far with smile marred on her face. 'Totally gonna send this to Malik, I bet he boxer will rolled and scream for not be there to see Yue sister chuckled carefree'
"If you do not mind, may I ask your name mister?" Yue tilt her head as she can feel that the man next to her is quite taller than herself.
"Elijah, Elijah Mikaelson" for some odd reason Elijah found the blind girl next to him is quite enchanting not only that her smell is quite genuine, not like any woman who always masked their scent with some perfume, but her smells is more genuine which include the smell of the flowers around them, making her smells more enchanting.
Not only that, even her politeness is something that he haven't seen for quite sometimes. From her heavy accent he can pinpoint that she also from where he have came from before the New World been made and before the plague happen where he lost his older sister Freya.
"That is quite lovely name Mr Elijah"
"Please, you may called me Elijah Ms Yue"
Again those chuckled make Elijah wish to hear more again and again. "If you may insist but only if you called me Yue."
Elijah smiled widely and nodded his head as agreement "Of course Yue. May I ask what you doing over here. Are you waiting someone Yue?"
"Oh dear me, I have forgotten regarding of that. I'm a model, this clothes is related to the theme that we just finished do it. It is flowery theme, I accept it in the heartbeat because it will do in here and one of my friend will be the photographer" Yue feel a little bit weird as to why she need to tell this Elijah person to why she wear this clothes.
"My apologize Elijah, but I have to go. I'm sure that I'm making my little sister worried for me"
Just like a queued, Miranda called her older sister name. But what she didn't expect to see is that on how Elijah is smiling at her older sister with pure adoration. 'She need to discuss this with Malik and need to see in her grimoire too'.
"Sister, you making me worried" Miranda voice come out panic, yes she is indeed panic as her older sister have a habit to love walked around by herself without anyone to look over.
Yue smiled upon hearing her little sister panic voice, she never intend to make anyone worried but she need to be alone sometimes too. "I'm sorry my dear, I didn't mean too and I'm sorry for forget to have my phone by my side. Oh Elijah, I would love to introduce you, this is my little sister, Miranda. Miranda this gentlemen over here is Elijah"
Both Miranda and Elijah have known each other but the both of them keep those outside from Yue as Miranda and Malik have promise to him that they will tell her when the time is come. Both twin also have told that, if they older sister and mother kick them out from the house, they will do in they power to protect them even though they been kick out.
"It is quite nice to meet you Mr Elijah. I'm sorry to be rude but both my sister and me have to go. Oh by the way here is my older sister number, I'm sure you wish to contact with my sister. Sister dear we have to go, I'm sure Kendrick will pay for living you alone" Miranda gave Elijah a wink when she gave her older sister number to him which make Elijah look at the little witched front of him with dumbfounded.
Yue shake her head when she heard Miranda amuse tone. She know very well that her little sister will put a mischief on Kendrick, she missed her little brother. She sure if the twin is here, the two of them will put a full force prank to Kendrick.
"Well I guess, I have to go know. I hope we will meet again Elijah. See you later"
