"I am a overdramatic, emotional mess, believe me you don't want to be involved" she sighed continuing "I am not a bet you can win over with a little persistence because first, i hate cliches and second, I am aware of those sweet gestures that turns...
We entered the library and i saw only a few students there, immediately i took my hand that Jason was holding back as i ran as slowly as i could to reach the bookshelves and away from the source who has the power to make me feel things.
The library was big enough for me to choose a corner where I won't be spotted by Jason after reaching the far most corner of the library i took alot of deep breath to calm my nerves, i can feel my temperature rising from the usual.
When i finally returned to somewhat normality i tried to look for some books to distract me hopefully for the entire time Jason will be around me.
"What are you looking for?" Jason voice came and i cursed internally.
How the hell he found me! Damn it!
"Just some books" i casually said avoiding any contact with him as i tried to reach for the top shelves.
I couldn't reach it so i stood on my toes as i tried to put my hands on the books on that shelves.
Ahh! I am not that small!
I whispered to myself a little frustrated, furrowing my eyebrows in annoyance when suddenly i felt someone's presence behind me, so close.
I was afraid to turn around because i was aware of who the person could be.
Don't be him! Don't be him!
"Which one do you need? I'll take it out" Jason spoke as his hands reached the top easily.

He wasn't looking at me but was right behind me close enough that i could hear his voice above my head.
"The green one" i spoke without thinking, my mind was distracted by the thought that he was standing so close to me.
"There are a few green ones can you be more specific?" He chuckled as he went through the books with his fingers, it's like he knew i wasn't thinking straight.
"The um the one right next to the black one" i said without looking and held the books that i had tightly against my chest.
"You seriously could just say the name of the book" he laughed again at my stupid attempts, he clearly knows i didn't even looked at the books.
"There you go" he said as he handed me the book with both hands and smiled.
"Thank you" i breathed heavily because now i was facing him and he seemed to have gotten more closer than before.
"You are serious about studies i guess" he raised on eyebrow, a questioning gaze as he scanned the books in my hands.
"Yeah..." I avoided catching his eyes. I can feel my cheeks burning up.
"it's okay if i study with you right?" He asked
"Yeah no problem" i tried to sound normal but my voice clearly hinted my nervousness around him.
