I run through the library doors, feeling Sebastian's eyes on me as he walks down the hall to first period and slam shut the doors." Don't worry! I'm here!" I yell and walk to the front desk behind the first bookshelf.

The librarian smiles at me, as she glances up from a sketch pad she's showing Xavier." Oh goody! I was just showing Xavier here your sketch of the billboard we're going to do. Did you pick out the colors you thought would be best?"

I walk up to the desk and nod, taking off my book bag and sitting it on top of it. I open it up and slide out the paper samples she had given me yesterday." Yeah. I decided on Maya blue and fossil grey." I show her the papers and she nods, Xavier seeming lost.

"Don't mind her about the colors. She's very educated with types of colors. A woman thing."

"Sexist." I mumble and add," It's a painter thing."

He nods and scratches at his jaw, making a scratching noise when his nails hit his stumble." And what am I doing again?"

"If you don't mind- you'll get the rolls of paper out for Asher. They're very heavy. She might not admit it, but she does need help with putting up these boards. And it'll just make things faster and easier."

I roll my eyes and look at my painting from yesterday that's much bigger than I remember and I look back at her." Did you ever decides on that other painting you wanted?"

"Awh,yes. I was thinking the cover of The Great Gatsby and a painting of a child reading a book with a bunch of children book characters surrounding him."

I nod before taking back my book bag and reach her a pencil." Just mark where you want them." She nods before taking off and I turn to Xavier." Ready?" He shrugs and I turn away, leaving my book bag leaning against the desk and walk to the closet that has all the paper rolls in it." So here are the colors I'm wanting." I say giving him the samples and he nods before going inside. I let out a sigh and glance behind me." Where's that sweater I left in here once?"

"The one you left last year? In that closet. I washed it like a month ago."

I glance inside and see it hanging on on the shelf that has old yearbooks stacked on it and glance at the floor that's filled with big rolls of billboard paper. I slip off my high heels and walk in there, making sure not to trip and die on the paper. Xavier moves over for me as I go to the shelf and double glances my way." New wardrobe?"

I shake my head glancing down at the dress." No. I just had to wear it because my dads taking my mother and I somewhere after school. Trust me. I wouldn't wear it if I didn't have to."

"I wasn't saying anything about you wearing it." He says as he picks up the two rolls of paper.

"Sorry." I say as I get my sweater down from the shelf." I'm just in a bit of a defense mode lately. Considering I'm being surrounded by a pervert all the time."

He frowns slightly and I catch him glance down me quickly causing me to roll my eyes. At least he's trying unlike the rest." Well, in a non perverted way, you do look good. Though its way more form fitting than usual."

"Thanks I guess." I say and put the sweater over me and taking it down as low as it can go- it reaching to my thighs." I just feel like something might fall out every time I lift up an arm." He lifts an eyebrow and the side of his lips before gesturing my to go on." Is this the trick of, ladies first? When really it means walk in front of me so I can stare at your ass?"

"Maybe."

I roll my eyes and flip him off as I pass, and he lets out a deep chuckle before following behind me." Remember I'm going to be around very sharp scissors all day."

"I'll keep it in mind."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/-------------/----------------------

"Can you pass me the hot glue gun?"

He puts the gun into my hand I put the hot glue all over the brown board before putting the blue paper up and pressing down on all the corners so it glues tightly. He hands me the stapler and I grab the second sheet of blue paper and put it on the board, him instinctively holding up the right side for me as I staple the left side to the board." Why are you doing two layers again?"

"Just in case it rips and you won't see the brown but the blue paper under neath. You don't know how many people here tear them down just for laughs." I staple his side down and lay the tablet on the ground, looking at the clock. Nine thirty five. An hour until Gabriel's lunch.

"Are you sure you want to staple these books to the billboard?"

"Are you accusing me of being such a book nerd that i'd be absolutely offended by someone stapling a book to a billboard? If so, your absolutely correct. I brought Velcro pieces so we can just stick them up on it. They're to much of my babies to ruin like that." I pick up the little package and grab out the stick on pieces and put them on the billboard then the five books we picked out. "Plus this way the librarian can just pick whatever books she wants and snap them up and change them around if she wants."

He smirks and whispers down to me," You keep calling her the librarian. Do you remember her name?" I shake my head and he rolls his eyes." Mrs. Connie."

I bite my lip and look at the billboard awkwardly." I once called her Mrs.Cern. That's why she laughed for a whole week about it.... You'd think someone who comes to this library about once every week, would know the librarians name."

"You'd think." Is all he says before reaching me to books. I take them and press them to the Velcro making them stick to the board, then take the next ones he reaches me and do the same." So why are you doing this? Making the library new again?"

"Because. When a non reader walked into here. They saw a bunch of boring books on dusty shelves. Maybe even only noticed the dark corners that they can go makeout in. They'd see a plan room that they would instantly hate to walk in. But as a reader, like me, I'd walk in and see everything totally different. I'd see this place as a zoo of adventurous and possibilities. I'd sees the worlds I was taken to while reading here, and even remember my favorite part of a book just by looking at a place that I had read that part at. I could smile and tell you everyplace I sat while reading the Harry Potter series, The Divergent, The Infernal Devices, and the Hunger Games. I want to make this place less boring and dusty, so when nonreaders walk in here they'll see the world I can see and hopefully enjoy reading like I do."

"Beautifully said." He tells me and I jump when I hear claps to the right of us.

The librarian smiles at me as she claps, looking at me in pride." That was beautiful." She says and I blush as she wipes at her watery eyes." It's not common anymore for someone to be able to speak so passionately about a book. And I'm glad someone like you can." She gives me one last smile before taking the pile of books Xavier and I rejected for the billboard, and disappears into the shelves of books.

"Today is a very awkward day for me." I mumble before grabbing the fairy lights and stapler. Xavier follows quietly, and begins to staple along with me, bordering the board with them, leaving the plug in hanging.

"At least you haven't fell in those heels yet."

I knock on the small desk beside of us holding all our supplies for the board and say," Knock on wood. I don't want to die in this outfit."

"And what outfit would you like to die in?"

I look up at him, meeting his eyes and not having to look away like I have to everyone else." Batman boxers and a sports bra."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/------------------/---------------------

"Looks great Asher." Mrs.Connie says as she looks at the billboard." And Xavier." I smile at the billboard. The fairly lights surround the light blue, as the books are stuck to the board with string coming from them seeming like their kites. It was all just random things put together, but it looks awesome in my opinion. Though I could just be saying it because it was my idea...

"So did you pick those spots?"

"Yes and while I was doing that, I got the greatest idea. What if over the next years you'll be staying here, you'll paint book characters and quotes on the bookshelves. Maybe even scenery stuff. Like trees and beaches? "

"That's actually a good idea. So is that what I'm painting on today?"

She nods and leads us to the back of the library, showing is bookshelves side by side- both with squares on them." I found you an apron so you don't ruin that pretty dress of yours." She she's handing me the white apron and I take it from her.

"Thank you." For remembering I had an important dress on and that I might have ruined it without this.

"You're welcome."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/-------------/----------------------

I watch as Asher walks over to the bookshelves tying the apron around her and once again feel the twitch in my pants from the sway of her hips that is usually hidden from loose clothing. I'm having to use all my willpower to not do something about that form fitting dress she's wearing and uncomfortableness I feel right now. It's like I'm being tested of whether I'm going to blow my cover and steal her innocence. One things for sure, if she keeps doing what she's doing I'm not going to be able to control myself by the end of the day. Maybe if she just sits down and paints for awhile it'll go away. I doubt it. I grumble slightly before sitting her book bag beside her as she rolls up the sleeves to the sweater. The sweater helps slightly so I don't get distracted while talking to her face to face, but my biggest test is the ass. It being round and fat and how sometimes when she walks it'll mold to her even more. A nerd should never contain deadly features like she does. They supposed to be boring and plain. Not hot and thick. I rub my face, and distract myself with feeling of the stubble on my jaw. These thoughts will change once she comes back in normal clothes.

You just haven't got laid in awhile and am jumping on the first attractive thing you see Xavier. Just get over yourself. I glance down at Asher to see her looking at my with raised eyebrows." What?"

"I've been trying to get your attention for awhile now. Big or small?"

"At least let me take you on a date before you start asking questions like that." She blushes and I sigh out. Get a god damn grip Xavier." What were you talking about? I'm was in my own world."

"I was talking about the size of the painting. Then you just made it all awkward."

"Sorry." I mumble before slowly squatting down. The pressure is beginning to be unbearable. "Um a big painting. At least the whole back of the bookshelf. That way it's easy to spot from a distance." That way you'll stay down and stop swaying those hips like that.

She nods and grabs her pencil and raises off the floor and stands on her knees in front of the bookshelf. Maybe if she'd just turn around this pressure would be history... Stop." Good thinking." She says and begins to sketch whatever she's drawing.

"So what are you drawing on the next one?"

"The cover of the great Gatsby."

I look at the book that's sitting beside her and nod partially to myself. That shouldn't be so hard to paint." Do you want me to do that one? It seems fairly easy."

She pauses before nodding and hands me the book." Yeah sure. Paint is in my bookbag. I brought the colors of the cover so you shouldn't have a problem with it."

"Good." I say before grabbing a pencil and taking the book then goon to the next. If her simply sitting down still affects me, then it's me that's going to have to do something else. The something else being painting a book cover into a bookshelf. Something I doubt my father thought I'd do with the skills he forcibly taught me.
