Next off, Library

I was searching a book to read as if I'm thirsty for water. I can't help but reading books. "A-Aya, the boy needs t-to get to the book your standing in front of" Veronica stuttered. "Hm?" I said. I turn around and jolt "Gah!" I exclaimed, causing me that I almost hit the shelf. Why do I have to be so clumsy?! maybe it's because of the boy standing in front of me I guess

The boy, who was standing in front of me, appeared to have a messy dark hair like he just got off to bed. He was wearing dark clothes and I noticed hr was wearing a ring on his middle finger

As the dark-haired boy crouched down to retrieve the book, I made a space for the boy and he browsed through the pages, I turn around awkwardly as he slowly go to the opposite bookshelf

Well it's official, I made a complete fool of myself. I almost hit the bookshelf and made a distraction of noise. That was stupid! I mean, I been clumsy sometimes but causing a distraction AND hitting a shelf, it's unacceptable. Embarrassment, awkwardness, and foolishness is around me right now

I continue to search books, quietly this time. i grab two books.

As Veronica asked if I'm okay, words can't describe it. Instead of saying anything, I nodded.

I don't really want to make people to concern me after an incident, really. People just do that because of my father. But this time, I feel okay Veronica asking a concerned question. Clearly she's already my first friend.

"Yeah, I'm fine" I spoke after nodding

Nico was browsing through his book, skimming past the long tales to find concrete descriptions of each giant. There was a mad gleam in his brown eyes, but there again, it had always been there ever since a couple of years. He was reading about Gratios, when he heard one of the girls address the other one: "Are you ok?" "Yeah, I'm fine," the other one replied. Nico looked up, the girl who had spoken was the brown-haired one.

"Did I do something wrong?" he asked her, startled. "If so, I'm sorry."

OOC: Shoooort.

"Huh? oh, no it's okay" I said. Wait... shouldn't I apologize and not him? but he must've heard us anyway

As I grab four other books, nervousness suddenly struck me. I don't know how and why, but nervousness JUST struck on me like a lightning. "Hey, I'm going to the other bookshelf" I said a bit too quick. Before Veronica say something, I grab her arm and drag her to the next bookshelf. I simply find books like it never happened

Nico followed them with his eyes. What had he done? He looked down at him to see if anything was wrong or out-of-place... But no, everything was fine. Perhaps he smelled? No, he had showered a few hours ago.
Perhaps it was just him being a son of Hades. Most people avoided him because of that. He had told Jason, he had explained it to him, but the son of Jupiter somehow thought it would be alright. Nico had never asked for such coldness from others, quite the contrary. He remembered a ten-years-old boy who played Mythomagic in a hotel, a boy that had a sister and found everything cool and great.
Yeah... How things had changed. He took the book, went to the librarian to borrow it, then exited the library with the book under his arm.

"Are you alright?" Veronica asked with concern. I think about it for a few seconds. Honestly, I don't the answer. "Yeah, just nervousness struck to me" I answered.

That boy reminded me of someone in school but I don't know who or what. This is exactly what happened in my school. I was searching books with Rachel, and a guy was searching a book too, then I hit the shelf at that time. Luckily this time I almost did it. But still, this is exactly what happened but oh well, coincidence.

I grab one more book and count all the books I picked. So far I picked three books, but that's alright
