Sight (n.h.) *On Hold*

3. Niall

Stupid. Stupid. And stupid.

How could I be so stupid?

How could I not have realized that she is blind?

I can't believe I still didn't notice. She has the super dark sunglasses, the cane, she wouldn't make eye contact, and she even hooked her arm with mine!

I ran into her and told her to "watch it". I'm a horrible person.

How could I not have noticed?

"Hey you know earlier when I ran into you and told you to 'watch it'?" I say as I awkwardly rub the back of my neck, "I'm absolutley sorry," I turn my body to face her, "like really, really sorry."

Colby quietly laughs.

"Niall I already told you 'no worries', anyways, I think that we should start heading back because by now it is probably getting dark out."

Ouch. The last part kinda stung that she didn't want to hang out with me for any longer, but at the same time she is right because it is already dark out.

"Umm okay." I say as I stand up and help her up with me. Shortly after we hook arms again and begin walking back.

"Niall can you describe yourself to me?" She asks in an angelic tone.

"Yeah? I like to-"

"No, no I mean like what you look like." She says as she rests her head on my arm as we walk.

She's so warm and her hair smells like strawberries- no Niall. Bad Niall. You have Lola.

"U-umm yeah," Stop stuttering! Stupid, stupid, Niall, "I have blue eyes-"

"Be more descriptive." She interrupts with a smile.

"Well Lola calls them crystal blues?"

My gut turns at the thought of Lola but I push it to the back of my head.

She hums a little before saying, "they sound pretty."

"Pretty? No, manly, yes."

"Whatever, anyways continue."

"Umm... well my hair is blonde at the tips and brunette at the roots, because I highlight them and it is a quiff." I say as I proudly smile.

"Really? I'm actually a brunette and get blonde highlights as well! Hence why my hair is dirty blonde."She says as she uses her other arm to push her side bangs back into position.

"Hashtag twinning." Oh my gosh did I really just say that.

Colby bursts into laughter.

"Did you really just say that?" She takes her head off my shoulder and uses her the arm not hooked with mine to hold her stomach.

I miss her head on my arm. Wait no.

"Niall you're the best." She says glancing in my direction.

"I've been told." I proudly state with a smirk.

"Oh shut up." She says while lightly pushing me. After that we walk in silence a little longer in silence.

"Hey Niall?" Colby says breaking the silence.

"Hey Colby." I smirk.

"Ha. Ha. But on a serious note can I do something?"

"Well it depends on what it is."

"Can I feel your face."

"Well uh. Y-yeah I guess." I'm so thankful that she couldn't see my face at that moment because I was probably as read as a tomato.

We stop walking down the sidewalk and she unhooks her arm from mine and stands infront of me. I hold her small hands and guide them to my face.

"I recommend you shut your eyes." She says.

"O-okay."

Breathe Niall Breathe!

She runs her hands lightly over my face and I could've sworn I could hear my heartbeat over all the street noise. But, her hands left my face as fast as they came.

"Now that wasn't so bad." She laughs.

I fake laugh with her. That was probably the most awkward moment in my life. She then loops her arm with mine once more and after walking a little while I notice the place where I crashed into her earlier.

"Hey I think this is your stop." I say to her.

"Thanks Niall. Also, if you need anymore advice on anything I'm here."

Advice? I didn't need advi- I completely forgot about Lola leaving.

"Okay thanks Colby, bye." I hurriedly say.

"Bye Niall." Right after she says that I bolt back to my flat.

I run through the lobby and back up the spiral stairs, when I get to the door I fumble with the keys.

"Come on!" I yell-whisper at myself until I finally unlock the door.

I finally unlock the door and run into the dark flat. "Lola?" I yell as I turn on the light switch.

Once the light switch is on I look around the flat to see that all her stuff is gone, and so is Lola.

And all that was left was a note.
