"You better return that as soon as possible!"

"I will! And thank you!" I fly out of the open library and land at my isle and walked onto my dorm, as soon as I got in I plopped onto my bed and open some pages of the book

I light the lantern beside me and laid back on my bed to continue reading.

As I was on the half page, my window shows a flash of light from the distance. Does it seem that there is someone in there that works?

I looked at my lantern knowing that the candle is about to run out any seconds, and it's a bit gloaming in here.

Not sure why, but my mind thought it would be a good idea to read on the giant lamp tower.

I know someone is working in there, but What if they need help? Who knows but it could be

I walked outside grabbing my books and fly onto the big tower, it took a long flight but it wasn't a big waste

I took a peek inside before going in, it seems that the lamplighter is fixing? Or just testing? I don't know. But I mean, I'm here just to get a better view of reading.

He turned around "Oh, sorry. Didn't see you there" before going back on his doings

"Don't mind me, just trying to get a better read"

"I understand... Hey"

I looked up at him confused, he turns around fully. "You're that rookie everyone has been talking about huh? (Y/n) isn't it?"

"Yeah, I'm surprised I'm already famous around here" you joked, he snorts and went back to fixing. "I thought what they say was facts, you were hostile. That's what I heard "

"If you push my limits yes"

"But you seem to be a nice girl.." He taunted, I laughed a bit at his acknowledgment.

"You're not wrong"

*tick*

You looked at the lamplighter questioning why he's been turning the light on and off, it went on like this for a while but you don't feel uncomfortable.

But after a couple of pokes, you noticed he was puffing beside you. "Still going for it?"

"Orders are orders"

"You seem quite exhausted. Why don't you just try to take a rest, let alone lamp"

He looked at you and then the lamp before accepting you're kind to offer, and sat beside you still tired

You flip page to page, his attention finally caught on you. "People don't read much nowadays. Why you?"

"It's just interesting to read"

He looked at your book, trying to recognize the title. "Looks familiar"

You glance at him being serious "you've read it?"

"Once, it was good. But the ones I read have a missing page, it wasn't all good so I stop at chapter... 2"

"Coincidence, wanna read it with me?"

He widened his eyes, it sounds uncomfortable because he doesn't want to interrupt you're reading "are you sure?"

"Why not?"

He scooted closer to you reading together trying to make his spare time a bit useful. And he'd be lying if he said he didn't regret it
