"Nice to meet you, Mallory," he replied.
"I'm Niall."

"N-nice to meet you, Niall,"
I just stared at him in silence. I couldn't believe he was right in front of me!

"Do you need help getting your boxes to your apartment?" he asked, breaking the silence.

"That'd be great, thank you," I replied, relieved.

He picked up the box and started up the steps. I stepped outside into the heat to bring the rest of the boxes inside. As I opened the trunk I was startled by a thud from the the lobby. I looked inside to see Niall rushing around gathering all the box's contents again. I couldn't help but laugh at the sight.

He saw me approaching him,
"Phew! That box is really heavy!" he said in his Irish accent.
I nodded. He grabbed one side of the box and I carried the other.

"What floor are you on?"

"10, number 438"

Finally, we managed to bring the box up the stairs.
He followed me back down to get the other boxes. Luckily, none of the other boxes were dropped.

We sat exhausted on a leather couch set in the lobby.

"So what brings you here?" he asked.

"Well...my dad was offered a job here. And I decided to come with him so our family wouldn't be apart. Um, what brings you here?"

"Oh, I'm just staying here for awhile to take a break."

I already knew that I just thought he would do something more interesting on the hiatus. Like, get a house on the beach or go on a cruise, not rent an apartment in New York.

"That's cool," I replied.

I looked at the time, it was 5:00 p.m.
Wow, I had spent 3 hours here already.
I heard a familiar voice and looked up to see my father walking in.

"Mallory! Did you get your boxes upstairs?" he asked, eyeing Niall.

"Yup."

"Did you get some help?" he asked raising an eyebrow, suspiciously.

Niall chuckled.
I rolled my eyes,"Yes I got help to carry the boxes."

My dad kept looking at me and Niall.

"I gotta go," Niall said, slipping a small paper into my hand.

"See ya," I said, watching him walk away.

My dad motioned his head towards the stairs.
"He looked familiar."
