Those Blue Eyes

Chapter Thirteen

Chapter Thirteen

Niall's POV

Where was Katie? I had seen Luke come back in the kitchen almost fifteen minutes ago! Why hadn't she come back in? I slowly made my way through the crowded kitchen and opened the door to the living room.

That's when I saw her. She was quietly crying on the sofa. She had her head in her hands and the was shaking. I walked over to her and sat down. Unsure of what had happened, I just put my arms around her to give her a hug. I didn't know what else to do so I started whispering into her it would be okay.

It was killing me seeing her like this. We had only met each other face to face twice but I already felt like I knew her. All I wanted to do was hold her and protect her from everything. She didn't deserve to be hurt like this.

"Katie, what happened between you and Luke?" I asked her after she had slowly stopped crying. She looked into my eyes and all I could see in hers was pain. They weren't happy and smiling like they should be. She had mascara all on her face and her eyes were red and puffy from crying, yet she still looked beautiful.

She placed her head back on my chest and I hugged her tighter. "He walked out after me, when I left the kitchen. He said we made a mistake and we should still be together. He said he missed me," she said and started crying again. I was gonna kill that boy. Whether or not he's in our opening act or if he still cares about Katie, no one, and I mean no one, hurts a girl like that, ever! And now that me and Katie were close I wasn't gonna let him hurt her anymore. And if that meant they wouldn't be opening up for us, then so be it.

She started talking again and said, " Luke said we should give us another try, but then he did the same exact thing that made me leave him again. He just walked out after I reminded him of his music. He didn't say anything else, just oh yeah thanks for reminding me! I didn't realize how much I missed him until now. I miss his smile and they way he laughs..."

After she finished talking I didn't know what to say. "I'm sorry," I told her. I figured she probably didn't have anything she wanted to hear. We sat there in silence, just rocking back and forth with her in my arms. If she hadn't been crying over a guy, that would have been a great moment. We sat like that for what seemed like hours, but then of course the boys had to come out. I unwrapped my arms from around her and put a little more room between us. I could see she wiped her eyes and sat up.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Luke making his way over to her. I protectively put my arm loosely around her. He didn't take the hint because he still came up to talk to her.

Before he could say anything of importance Calum and Ashton intervened. They all helped push him out and slam the door shut. At least they knew how much she was hurting.

Now the only people left were London, Katie and my mates. I could tell they were concerned and wanted to help. They tried to make her feel better but I knew the only thing that could make her smile was a joke.

"Katie I think it's time to leave," London said. Think Niall, think! Shoes, that's it! I grabbed her shoes when she went to pick up her phone and sat on them.

"Have you guys seen my shoes?" she asked. "They're moccasins..." I was trying really hard not to laugh, but I failed.

"Niall James Horan! Do you have my shoes?" All I could do was laugh. When she asked again I lost it and fell off the couch. Now she would definitely see them.

I hadn't realized the mad look on her face till she started yelling at me. I didn't think she was going to get this mad! I really screwed up.

"I guess you won't get a hug!" she yelled as she ran through the door. I got up and chased after her without any shoes on myself. I saw her head towards the stairs so I followed her. Dang! She was fast. She had outran me all the way down to the bottom already! Cross Country did her well!

I walked out into the lobby and got a glare from the lady at the front desk. She didn't like me, never has, never will... When I started walking by her, she called me over.

"Do you realize you don't have any shoes on, sir?" she asked me.

Did she think I was stupid! "Yes! I realize I don't have shoes on! Can I go now?" I walked away before she could respond. I could hear her yelling at me as I walked out into the parking lot looking for Katie.

To: Katie

Whyd u leave? I didnt think u were srs im srry for ur shoes ill buy u new ones if u come back :)

I was upset now. I hope she realized I was joking.

From: Katie

look up ;)

What? I had to reread the text to make sure I was reading it right. Sure enough, when I looked up who did I see, Katie... on the roof.

I should have known, I thought to myself as I ran back into the hotel and up to the elevator. It took forever for me to reach the roof but when I did Katie was there waiting for me with a smile on her face. She looked gorgeous. Her hair was blowing in the wind and across her face. Her eyes were still red and puffy but all I could see was her amazing smile. It was breathtaking and I was positive that it could light up a room all by itself.

I told her how sorry I was and promised to buy her a new pair of shoes. After talking for around ten minutes London told her she had to leave and I was disappointed. I didn't want her to leave yet, I wanted to get to know her better. We walked to the lobby and said goodbyes. As she drove off, I felt something in my chest. I was already missing her. This isn't good. "She still likes Luke," I said to myself as I started walking back to my room. "She doesn't like you like that anyways, she only sees you as a friend..." I rode the elevator back up to my room and walked in to find all the boys sitting on the sofa waiting for me.

"WHAT HAPPENED?!?!?!?!" asked Louis. "Did you find her? Did you apologize? Did you hug?"

"Ummm... Yes, yes and yes." I told him.

"Awwwww!" Harry said to me and gave me a girly face. "Niall fancies Katie! Niall fancies Katie!" he said in sing-songy voice.

"I do not!" I yelled at him. I couldn't like her I just couldn't!

"Come on! Just admit you fancy Katie!" Liam and Zayn said to me! Why were they all saying that? Was it that obvious?

"Okay. Okay, OKAY! I fancy Katie!" I yelled. I only said that so they would shut up about it. But I couldn't help but feel like it was the truth... Maybe I really did fancy Katie.
