Mia's fingers moved over the fingerboard of her cello seamlessly as if she and the instrument were one. The bow moved fluidly over the strings bringing the melody on paper to life. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAi6q4cfvdv5
She was lost in the world music created for her. A world away from her horrific past and haunting memories. She was so lost that she never noticed the young man standing a few feet away. 473Please respect copyright.PENANA1RGjZGpxTR
As she let the final note resonate through the room, he coughed slightly and she looked up startled. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAONyOhNE5sV
"Who are you?" she asked, setting her cello and bow on the ground. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAHD140POJbF
"Your destiny," he replied. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAPaGEGo7yUq
She surveyed him carefully, taking in every inch of his tall height and lanky limbs. His skin was somewhere in between pale and tanned and his dark hair was styled away from his face. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAuQfpsdZdCB
"Well, Mr tall, dark and handsome, why exactly are you watching me?" she said, taking another step towards the boy.473Please respect copyright.PENANApLWiD4EtNg
"Watching isn't exactly the correct term but never mind."473Please respect copyright.PENANA7JXnkOKxsU
He smiled as if he was laughing at a joke and she took yet another inquisitive step towards him. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAKigA3CaX7X
"I'm Mia, it's nice to meet you." 473Please respect copyright.PENANAAmrAzZcVVM
She offered her hand for him to shake but he didn't take it. Instead he replied by saying, "I'm Isaac." 473Please respect copyright.PENANAsAVp6j4Hhq
He too stuck his hand out but it wasn't anywhere near hers. Mia chose not to point this out and took his hand, shaking it firmly. 473Please respect copyright.PENANATBdv2y7QnJ
"I wish I could say you're beautiful," Isaac said when their hands finally lost contact. 473Please respect copyright.PENANA7fFSt6y3ol
Mia frowned. She couldn't quite tell whether that was supposed to be an insult or not. "Oh," she whispered.473Please respect copyright.PENANACL4ptjhkxN
"Oh no, that's not what I meant!" he exclaimed, grabbing at the air as if he was reaching for her hands. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAIFC1s3wjbj
"What did you mean then?" she asked, taking his hands in hers.473Please respect copyright.PENANAMOMyVyjDHn
This seemed to settle him and he removed his hands only to wrap them around hers. They both flinched as the stick he was carrying dropped to the ground and Isaac pulled her closer. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAbiHTZwP2ym
"I can't actually see you," he said slowly and she laughed. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAHdDgAaaSWP
"Take off those dark glasses then silly." 473Please respect copyright.PENANATKMXKemIjX
He placed a hand on her hip and used the other to caress her face. 473Please respect copyright.PENANApTXJabiu4k
"What colour are your eyes?" he asked, as he trailed his fingers down her cheekbone. 473Please respect copyright.PENANAHNY9aPlqVJ
"Green," Mia murmured.473Please respect copyright.PENANAM6QoptLS6q
"You play beautifully," he added, as if trying to distract her from something.473Please respect copyright.PENANAaGmXOb7fdr
"Surely you can see the colour of my eyes though," Mia pressed, confused by the stunning boy before him. 473Please respect copyright.PENANA7ko6xTDwzF
He smiled softly, pulling her into a tighter embrace. "I'm blind Mia," he whispered. 473Please respect copyright.PENANADKDU03bJg0
