You Should Open Your Eyes

The Surpise That Shocked Us All

I walk out to greet my guests, never mind I didn't know who they were. I stand next to the table waiting for the voices that would give me an idea of who was inside my home. "I'm just going outside Em I'll be inside in a sec!" My mums voice rang and I nodded and sat down on a chair and started humming 'Up All Night' It was a happy tune and it was just what I needed to entertain me. The front door opened again and lots of footsteps were coming through the door, echoing on the floorboards. A familiar soft hand touched your arm and guided you to where the first person must be standing. I usually touch the persons hair, shoulders and arms to see if I knew them. "May I?" I ask holding my arm out blindly. "Emily feels to see if she knows you so just stay still" my mums voice explains next to me. I cautiously raise my hand and an unfamiliar hand guided me to their hair. It was messy and curly. I felt their broad shoulders and it clicked. I gave an involuntary gasp.

A familiar chuckle sounded and it sounded like sunlight. "Harry Styles" I say taking a few steps back gaining my breath. "me me me me me!!" an Irish voice rang. "Niall?!" I said and held my arm out trying to find him eagerly. "No offence Nialler but your voice would have given it away," Harry's voice said and the room was full of laughter. I smiled and felt for his hair. Then his shoulders, and his arms. "Yep. Defiantly you" I say and he laughs "good! I had my doubts" He joked. Another soft hand pulled me lightly towards them. I started with the arms this time and I still didn't know. I tried the hair and knew. "Louis" I state "EMILYYYY!!!" Louis shouts and you wince. "I'm right here Lou, no need to shout" The laughs start up again. I went round correctly identifying each member and then chuckled "What is it Em?" mum asks and I only had to say "Jaz" and she joined in.

Jaz was my only friend that I wasn't related to. She would have a fit when she found out that I was in the same room as One Direction. "Why don't we sit down?" Another voice said. It defiantly wasn't one of the boys. A hand shakes yours "I'm Paul Higgins. I'm the boys body guard..... and babysitter" I laughed at that. It suits Louis and Harry perfectly. As we all sit down Niall starts talking excitedly. "So what's it like? I mean does it scare you at all?" This genuinely confused me. Scared of what? What is what like?

"erm. huh?" Is all I managed to say. "Oh! Emily they know your blind sweetie. Actually they called up and asked to meet you because of it." Mums voice says and I nod still confused. how did they know about me being blind? "we found you in the morning papers. You had an interview with them about your musical talent" Liam explains and I felt warmth spread through my cheeks. I had an interview with me playing the guitar and piano. The interviewer called it inspirational. please! I'm not helpless! I hate it when people always assume I can't do anything! "Um, well to answer your questions Niall it's not scary at all. And what is it like? Dark" I say changing back to the previous subject and he laughs. And that made me laugh and for a second I could've sworn that I could see gold.

"So the reason we are here is that well.... your missing out on a lot and..." Zayn started but Niall interrupted. "ZAAAYYNN!! I WANTED TO TELL HER!" I smiled and the warmth came back. I've blushed twice in one day! I gotta get myself under control! "so anyways" Niall continues "We saw the article and I felt bad for you. 'Coz you know. You deserved to see the world and you look beatif.... i mean sad so I organised for you to" "NIALL HORAN!! DID YOU CALL EMILY BEAUTIFUL???!! I CALLED DIBS!!" Harry's voice shouted and you blushed even more then. dammit Emily! "Shut up Harry! Now as I was saying. I organised for you to get permanent contacts put in!! You will be able to see!!" Niall finished.

This time it was me and my mum that gasped. Okay clearly she didn't know that they were planning that.
