Original Stories Fan Fiction ❯ Unwritten Past - Rewritten History ❯ The Library [part 1] ( Chapter 1 )

“Setasha, what are you doing?”

 

I glanced along a bookshelf as my blonde friend flipped my black hair over my face. I twitched and flipped it back and glared at the girl, “Honestly Rika. I'm looking for a book. Make yourself useful and go look over there.” I pointed to the bookshelves across the library.

 

She smiled at me, “Okay.” She skipped off, but then ran back, “Hey Setty, what am I looking for exactly?”

 

I frowned, “Well… Bring me any book that looks old. Now when I say old, I mean really old. Got it?”

 

She saluted, “Got it!” Then she ran off again.

 

I sighed, “She's not coming back…” I searched around the bookshelves, not paying much attention to anything else. Suddenly, I bumped into a blonde boy about my age.

 

He fell over and dropped the few books he had in his hands. I blushed slightly, “I'm sorry!”

 

I bent down and went to help him pick up his books, however, his hand landed on them first and my hand ended up on top of his. I blinked and quickly removed my hand and looked up at him.

 

He blinked and looked at me, our faces a little more than an inch a part. He blinked a few more times and stood up after gathering his books in his hands, “It's fine… Are you new here? You look somewhat familiar…”

 

I stood up and flipped my hair out of my face, “I've lived here for a while… But I haven't gotten a chance to get out much.”

 

He laughed slightly and his blue eyes softened a bit, “Well nice to meet you then. I'm Shade.”

 

He held his hand out and I blinked and shook it, “Setasha.”

 

He smiled and stared in my eyes, “Setasha… Interesting…”

 

I blinked as he let go of my hand, “What?”

 

He laughed, “Sorry… That's a beautiful name… It means `Beloved' right?”

 

I blinked again, “Yeah actually… How'd you know that?”

 

He smiled, “Lucky guess… So you need help finding anything?”
