Halsey

Her hair fluttered back as the wind whirled through the open car window, the soft sound of music emitting from the cars radio but yet nothing but silence filled the girls mind. Her parents were driving her to the eye doctor for a quick check up. She usually went to the eye doctors once every year, wanting to make sure that she still had 20-20 vision and to check up on her color-blindness, but ever since she told her parents about how she's been seeing the color blue recently they wanted to drag her to the eye doctors.

"Halsey, sweetie, are you sure you're actually seeing the color blue and not just imagining it?" Her mother looked back at her as her father parked the car in the parking lot.

Halsey nodded her head. "I'm positive mom, I couldn't even imagine colors if I wanted to, believed me I've tried." She said as she climbed out of the car.

The small family made their way into the doctors office and sat down in the waiting room as Halsey's mom filled out some forms before her usual doctor - Dr. Robinson- came out and instructed Halsey and her parents to follow him. She had her usual form of a check up. She tested her vision, made sure that she could still see without glasses and everything, until the topic that was inevitably supposed to come up was spoken of; Her whole color-blindness issue.

"So, Halsey, over the phone your mom told me that you were starting to see colors. Is that correct?" Dr. Robinson asked with a small raise of his eyebrow. Halsey nodded her head instantly.

"Well I kind of can. So far I've only been able to see the color blue." She mumbled softly as Dr. Robinson jotted down a few things.

"This is the first time you've ever been able to see any form of color, correct?" The doctor questioned more.

"Mhmm. I've only seen shades of gray, black, and white until now."

He nodded his head once more. "It's not unheard of for people with color-blindness to be able to see select few colors." He explained. "However, most people usually see red or green, but I guess this just gives you another unique trait Halsey."

More like a wretched imperfection, Halsey thought to herself but on the outside she continued to smile and nodded her head. The rest of her check up went smoothly as it usually did, but yet Halsey was still a little confused about her situation.

Maybe she was right and Luke isn't the reason why she's starting to see colors? Of course she never really thought that he was, it was nothing more then a small theory. Maybe she was just a 'late bloomer' when it came to seeing some beauty from color, and she just started seeing them when Luke came around? But if that's true then how come she was only able to see the colors of his eyes and then then the ocean, after all both colors were the same beautiful shade of blue.

She sighed in frustration as her and her parents walked out of the doctors office and back to the car and she quickly climbed into the back and buckled herself in.

All she could think was one thing "What the hell is wrong with me?"
