• LOVE AT LAST SIGHT   Chapter 10

  Chapter_10When I woke up I knew it was going to be one of those days that I just wanted to give up. My vision had only been gone for one week at this point, but I’d woken up four out of seven days (today included) feeling like it wasn’t worth it. Just finding my way to the bathroom was a hassle. I knew the way of course, I’d lived in the house long enough for that, but I was so paranoid . That I’d trip on the stairs, that I’d step on something that wasn’t there the day before. All that plus the fact that having no sight really though off my balance didn’t exactly make me a happy camper.It was even tougher at Chace’s house, because everything was different. I had to go down the stairs to find the bathroom.So today, at Chace’s, when I stumbled on the last step on the stair and fell crashing to the ground, I briefly wondered why my neck couldn’t just snap. Seconds later I hea

• LOVE AT LAST SIGHT   Chapter 9

  Chapter_9The next day, we never made it to the mountain. I never got to see my last sunset. When I'd woken up, my vision had expired. I'd waited for an hour, hoping— praying — that it would return to me, but it never did.I was never granted a miracle.My parents were called, my eye doctor was called, Kate and Paul were called, and Chace's dad was called. There were a lot of tears— not on my part though. Mainly on my mother's and Kate's. They seemed a lot more depressed over my blindness than I did. Chace never let go of my hand. His grip was firm and tight, every now and again he gave me a reassuring squeeze.Jack was by my side; ready and attentive like the Seeing Eye dog he was trained to be.Being blind made me realize how much of a gift sight is. I knew I'd never be able to see the hue of the sky at sunset again, or the blue of the ocean, or the shag

• LOVE AT LAST SIGHT   Chapter 8

  Chapter_8I shot him a dirty look before zeroing in on the kitchen door. Any moment Kate and Paul would walk through. My front door opened and I tensed, ready for anything. Briefly I thought that maybe they'd bought a refrigerator as a joke, but then realized how ridiculous that was and banished the thought.When Kate and Paul did walk through the door, what they had with them was not what I was expecting.At all."Rosie," Chace began, sweeping his arm out to the side. "Meet Jack."As if on cue, the golden retriever standing before me barked. My jaw nearly dropped. "You guys... bought me a dog...?""Jack," Paul repeated, grinning at me. "Cute, isn't he?"Numbly, I nodded, dropping to my knees in front of the yellow puppy. He stared back at me with wide, amber puppy eyes. "Hi, boy," I greeted, wrapping my arms around his soft body. "D'aww,

• LOVE AT LAST SIGHT   Chapter 7

  Chapter_7My heart clenched— something I was far too used to by now. Just like the hollow feeling of knowing within days my eyesight would be gone. From that point on, my imagination would be all I had. And even that would disappear eventually.But I knew that.I accepted that."Ah, your eyes..."Turning my head toward Paul's voice, I frowned. "What?""Can you... can you see right now?" he questioned quietly.Shaking my head, I smiled slightly. "No... can you tell? Right now, my vision is gone.""I mean, it's not like... What's it look like?"

• LOVE AT LAST SIGHT   Chapter 6

  Chapter_6My mind was having trouble processing his words. He’d known from then? That was more than two months ago! “I…”He held up his hands defensively. “You have the right to be angry, Rosie. In fact, you can slap me if you want. That was private. I shouldn’t have looked. I’m sorry.”“I… I think I’m going to pass out.”“What? What’s wrong?” he demanded, his worried eyes searching mine. “Should I call a doctor?”“I don’t understand.”“Don’t understand what?”“You.”He furrowed his eyebrows. “What?”Chewing my bottom lip, I dropped my gaze. “Why are you still going out with me?”“What do you mean?

• LOVE AT LAST SIGHT   Chapter 5

  Chapter_5Pain.That was all I could feel.Everywhere .A bright light filled my eyes— or did it feel my eyes? It was all black. In fact, I wasn’t even sure if that light I was seeing was actually a light. All I knew was that my whole body hurt like hell.Like a truck had hit me…With a gasp, my eyes shot open. A truckhad hit me! A blinding light filled my eyes, and immediately I began to full out panic. I couldn’t see. I couldn’t see . “No, no, no!” I mumbled, my voice coming out as a hoarse whisper. I struggled to sit up, but as I did, fire spread through my midriff and head. Groaning in pain, I flopped back down.“Rosie? Rosie?”I knew that voice. “Chace?” I croaked.“Rosie, oh my God, you’re awake… Doctor! Do
