The Sound of Silence

Summary

Title is the song The Sound of Silence that was redone by Disturbed. I actually think they did a much better job than the original version. Also, I'm not sure if a crushed throat can be repaired but let's say it can just for the purpose of this story!
Also, I don't know much sign language beside how to say virgin, vegetable, and bitch. Sorry.
Oh, the main reason I decided to write this is because I noticed that so far, at least from what I've seen, no one has done something with people that have speaking or hearing disabilities besides one that I think I read on PTV fanfiction a long time ago. The only thing I remember about that fanfic was that I think she was adopted by Oliver Skyes. That or they were close friends. Which makes me want to read it again.
Also, I've known people who, while physically capable of speaking, refused to or were not ready to. However, I knew two of them (before they moved anyway), that were able to sing. Dear Jesus, were they amazing.

ANYWAY, ON TO THE STUFF ABOUT THIS FANFIC.

OKAY SO THIS IS WHAT THEM SPEAKING IN SIGN LANGUAGE IS: 'She's such a bitch.'
This is thoughts: 'What a bitch.'

Cosimia doesn't speak. She's classified as mute. She's tried speaking but she just can't. It's like her body isn't ready despite the fact that her vocal cords healed about a year and a half after the incident that took her voice away. However, when she's alone or with either her father or Aife, she does sing.

Cosimia has been mute since she witnessed the brutal murder-rape of her mother and the murder of her step-father when she was 7 years old. She's 17 now. She communicates through sign language and writing notes. For the first 18 or so months, she was physically unable to speak because the criminals had crushed her throat, damaging it, to keep her from screaming for help. She had to have surgery done to fix it. She plays the violin, piano, harp, saxophone, harmonica, and flute. She sings and draws. Cosimia inherited a mixture of her mother's green eyes and her father's blue eyes. She doesn't speak but she does sing for Aife, her father, and her stepmother. Singing calms her down.
Aife, 17. She is best friends with Cosimia. She was friends with Cosimia since they were two. She knows sign language and translates what Cosimia is saying for everyone. Aife was born with hearing damage but she still can talk normally. However, when alone with Cosimia, she uses ASL to speak. Aife plays the viola, cello, guitar, drums, and is learning how to play the piano from Cosimia. She sings and draws. Cosimia and her have to have all their classes together so Aife can translate anything Cosimia is saying for the teachers.
Jared, new transfer student. Age 17. Twin brother of Dean. Becomes good friends with Cosimia and Aife.

Stephenia, Cosimia's birth mother. She married Cosimia's father when she was 17. Their marriage lasted five years before the two decided that they should see other people. She had Cosimia when she was 19. She died when she was 26 years old. She loved Cosimia's father greatly but was remarried when she was 24. She was a small time model.
