“It’s not what I feel for you; it’s what I don’t feel for anyone but you”

“Where’s Niall? The signing is about to start, in ten minutes” Lou asked Liam.

“I’m trying to contact him but he won’t answer his phone.” Zayn replied. The signing started but Niall wasn’t there yet.

Niall’s P.O.V.

The signing must have started already. We are still lost; we are in such a big hotel to know where the exits are.

“Hey, Bianca,”

“Yes? Are we there yet?” she asked. I covered my face with my palm because of embarrassment.

“Well, I don’t want to lie or anything, but I really can’t find the right way. But we’re in front of a coffee shop, if it’s alright, we can just stay here to you know, have coffee, while we’re still lost,” I said.

She sighed and smiled. “Well, it’s fine by me. Don’t be guilty or something okay?”

“I won’t,” I said and we went inside the coffee shop. We ate and spent the whole time chatting about random things, until she suddenly told me what its’ like to be unable to see.

“It’s like walking in air. It is difficult and scary at the same time. You will never know how beautiful really is. However, my mom told me that beautiful is something that we do not really have to see to prove.” She said.

“That’s true. The person’s attitude, way of thinking and his/her outlook in life see beauty. It is not all about what is on the outside, moreover it talks about what we have inside that matter,” I replied. She smiled and nodded.

“You really have great insights, you must be a really smart man,” she told me. I laughed at her statement but she just smiled.

“Bianca, have you ever thought about being able to see yourself?” I asked her. The atmosphere suddenly changed. Her smile faded and her eyes showed sadness.

“Many times I tried to predict what I look like. However, it just makes me laugh. How can I predict something if I don’t know the real thing? Do you get what I mean?” she said and smiled.

“I just hope you could see how beautiful you are, especially your smile. It’s a real smile when you do it. I have seen thousands of smiles, but yours is the one I found special.” I told her, she smiled shyly at what I just said.

“Thank you, I wish to see you too Niall” she replied. Then she reached for my face. Her soft slim fingers touched my forehead. Her index finger and middle finger ran down my nose, she smiled at that. Then she gently touched my closed eyes, and my eyebrows. After which, she followed the outline of my face down to my chin. I can hear her chuckle, and then suddenly, she laid her finger on my lips. I opened my eyes and she suddenly pulled her hand away from me.

“I’m sorry,” she said.

“No, it’s alright. You didn’t mean it of course,” I said.

“I would really want to see your face,” she said to me. I do not know, but it made me glad. It is as if I have never been happy before.

“I hope you’ll see yourself real soon, coz it would be such a waste if you didn’t” I said unexpectedly.

“You think so?” she asked.

“Yeah, I mean yes, you are a beauty Bianca,” I told her. She laughed and covered her face.

“Why? Why are you covering your face?” I asked her.
