                   *Lyla's P.O.V.*

"Yes Dad, i really want to do this." I roll my eyes. Thank goodness he doesn't see me, he's on the other end of the phone.

"I have just one last question." He says.

"Good." I've probably spoken with him for two whole hours, him just babbling about how careful i have to be when i live with Pat. I'm always at his place anyways. But not right now. Now, I'm at Sam and Laura's place.

"Lyla?" I hear my dad say.

"Yes? Sorry i was thinking." I apologize.

"I have one more question. Do you love this boy?" He asks.

"Yes. I love him."

My voice sounds so real, it makes me giggle.

"Just be careful." He says.

"Thanks Dad. Don't worry, he loves me too." I sound so happy right now, i feel like a little kid on Christmas morning.

"Right." I hear on the other end. It's a sad tone, a word that brings my attention away from Patrick.

"Dad, I'll always be here. I know Sam's settling down, I'm moving out, but we'll always visit! I'm not ready to leave for good. I'm a daddy's girl." I tell him.

"I know, Lyla. I just don't want you to get hurt."

"I won't, dad. Trust me." I convince him.

"Alright then. You won't be moving in until a few weeks though, we've got to sort everything out." His tone is now warning.

"Yes! Okay, okay. Thanks daddy." I hang up quickly, before he gets to change his mind.

"So he said yes?" Laura's voice enters the living room.

"Yeah." I smile down at my lap.

I feel her sit down beside me, and i wonder how Sam's setting everything up. I've helped him set up the patio, decorating it with silver streamers and twinkling lights. It's almost time.

"Hey, Laura?" I ask her.

"Yes?"

"What are you wearing?" I smile at her direction.

"Skinny jeans and a tank, why?" She asks skeptical.

"Go change into something beautiful." I tell her.

"Hmmm." She says, but listens to me. She comes back a minute later.

"I know you can't see me Lyla, but I'm wearing a dress now." She states.

I nod. "Good." I approve.

The door opens, and I'm guessing Sam comes in.

"Laura." My brother's voice is low, and i know it's time.

I wish i could see what's happening, but i don't know. I stay on my space on the couch, as my brother and Laura are out on the patio. They're probably having their dinner now.

**

Someone is shaking my shoulders.

Did I fall asleep?

"Lyla!" It's Laura's voice.

"Sam proposed! I'm going to be your sister!" She sounds so happy, and i can't help but grin.

"You're already practically my sister." I tease.

"Yes, but for real this time!" I can almost picture her bouncing.

"The wedding is going to be next month. Oh now i need to plan! The cake? The people? The banquet hall? Oh, my dress!" She blabbers on.

"Oh, Laura." I chuckle softly.

"Where's Sam?" I ask the excited bride to be.

"He's here!" She sits someone down on the couch.

"Could you drive me home?" I feel bad for whisking Sam away when Laura's just so excited.

"Sure." He takes my arm, and and leads me. I could use my cane, but it's just easier if someone leads me, and i don't want to be so open about my blindness.
