True Love Is Blind
Chapter One- First Kiss.
Belle was tugging on her lead for me to miss an object. I was glad I brought her. I think my head would probably be really, really sore if I hadn't.
Belle barked slightly, I knew someone was there, I could sense their presence anyway.
Who ever it was was just glowing with happiness, as I felt it bounce off onto me.
''Hello,'' said a male tenor voice, it was soft and gentle, I conjured up a mental image of this person, a tall man with an innocent personality, young and naive but helpful welcoming and loving.
''Hey'' I stroked Belles tail as she rubbed against my legs.
''I saw you at the bonfire last night,'' he said. Observant too, most there were so many people there I didn't think I would really stand out.
I tried to tell what height he was, I hated to think I wasn't looking directly at his eye, so he wouldn't think I was being rude.
''Yeh, I was there. I loved the stories,'' I replied. I didn't know whether he was a Quileute or not, so wasn't sure if I should have said your legends.
''Yes, it's great having those legends passed down, so we know about our past.''
''Yes. So you're Quileute then?''
''Yeh.'' He sounded kind of like he was wondering why I said that, he didn't realise I couldn't see him.
''Yeh, sorry, I'm kind of blind,'' my lip pouted.
''Really? I'm so... sorry. How'd it happen?'' he sounded sad.
''I've never been able to see, I was born this way.''
''I'm so sorry!''He sounded like he was going to cry any minute. He was closer than I thought and pulled me in for a big hug. I was surprised, but I felt a weirdly, very very strong chemistry with this guy. I felt like we could talk for hours, even though we'd just met.
''Why are you hugging me?'' I asked. I was glad I was in this friendly guy's warm arms, of course.
''You looked like you were about to cry.'' He explained.
''I wasn't really going to.'' He let go of me after a few seconds. I was frustrated at myself for saying something like that for such a nice guy.
I needed to talk; I couldn't let him go on.
''What's your name?'' I asked.
''Seth Clearwater,'' he replied softly.
''Mine is Rose.''
With not much else to say, I commented on the weather, telling him how cold I was. He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and I felt chemistry like no other. I liked this guy a lot, and I barely knew him.
I wasn't sure what to do, the atmosphere was perfect, the mood was right, the positions of our bodies where right beside each other, but I couldn't do it. I was far too nervous; I've never kissed anyone before. I've never fancied anyone either, here in the world of darkness one can only judge on personality.
My heart was beating very fast, there was only one way to do it, I could ask him.
My head was filled with the picture of what I thought he looked like already, a beautiful image of a person with copper skin and big muscular arms. I didn't know that much about him, just that he was Quileute and probably very tall.
But, I mean I don't know if it's normal, most people how watch TV get information and stuff from there... I can't.
''Can, I ask you something?'' I squeaked, I feel so nervous. My heart is fluttering, what if I miss and kiss the air? What if he makes me miss on purpose? I would be forever ashamed.
''Yes.'' Oh my goodness. It's now or never. This will either be one of the best or worst days of my life.
''Would you... Lean forward a bit...?'' I asked nervously, my voice was embarrassingly shaky.
I smelt a sweet, woody; honey smell and his breath tickled my neck, I smiled. Suddenly, as if my brainwave went from my head to his he kissed my lips with his soft, warm ones.
His hand wrapped itself around the side of my face as the kiss deepened, slowly but pleasurably. His other hand went around the back of my head and buried its self in my long hair; I felt up his arm and set my hand on his shoulder.
It was an amazing first kiss. I pulled back first. I wanted to ask him out sometime, really badly. I felt chemistry like no other, like we were made to be together, even though I'd only known him for a few minutes.
I faced his direction, hoping our eyes met like crazy. I smiled and I felt my skin blush brightly. People tended to forget I couldn't see and it seemed rude that I was looking in all the wrong places.
I decided to be honest.
''I don't know what to say,'' I blushed even harder.
He pulled in again and surprised me with another kiss. This was longer and filled with passion, our mouths moved in a perfect way in synchronism.
He pulled away first this time.
''Want to go out?'' he asked me, still close, I could feel his delicious breath on my neck.
''Yes please,'' I said, trying not to sound too over enthusiastic.
''Where? When? How?'' he asked. I laughed.
''What about La Bella Italia?'' I asked, I love Italian food.
''Sure,'' I could feel his radiant smile. I smiled back.
''Tomorrow evening?'' I asked.
''Sounds good,'' he replied.
''What time is it?'' I requested. I felt his arm move to look at his watch.
''Em, quarter to seven,'' he replied.
I rolled my eyes. ''Typical, bus leaves at 7.'' We both sighed.
I got up off the rock we were sitting on and called for Belle, she came immediately to by my side.
I started to walk forward and heard Seth walk beside me. He grabbed my hand with his warm one. I smiled, still facing forward.
''It must be so hard.''
I picked up that he meant not having any sight.
''It is sometimes, there are some things I can't do that I really want to. Just imagine it was constantly the night for you,'' I tried explaining to him. He thought about it for a while, while he did that I squeezed his hand.
''Well, I can see in the dark so that's kind of hard for me to imagine,'' so... some people could see in the dark, I don't remember my mum telling me that.
''That's so unfair! You can see in the dark and I can't see at all!''I sighed again.
''There's something I have to tell you, but I'll explain later.'' We had come to a stop, he grabbed my hand and put it in both of his. ''We're at the bus station.''
''Oh, right. Is my bus here yet?'' I heard a vehicle swerve up to my left, the petrol fume was very strong.
''It is now.'' He replied, kissing the top of my hand. I sighed again and called for Belle, my ever sin obedient dog.
I hugged Seth goodbye, not wanting to go at all. I wished I had enough confidence express how I really felt... to kiss him.
I paid the bus driver the fees and headed down the bus, Belle guided away from a strongly alcoholic smelling person and on down to a free seat, she jumped up onto the seat beside me and rested her furry head on my lap. I stroked and felt the bus move slowly onto the way home.
I thought more about Seth, and my date tomorrow. I was excited- and nervous...What was that thing he was going to tell me about?
