These last few days have been intriguing. Chrollo showed up early this week in my shift of Chiaroscuro, he seemed different, there wasn't a dark colour surrounding him, he said he was bored of waiting alone so he'd visit me every day. I imagined something had happened, but he wouldn't give out any details, so I let him be. He spent that whole day laying on a couch near the counter, while reading a book of mine. It was almost a painting view, him wearing that huge fluffy black jacket as he laid relaxed right there.

The next day, he finished Bonded by Flames and spent the rest of my shift observing me working, only to leave when I finished and went home. I was getting utterly confused at that point.

Yesterday though, my shifts switched to the night meaning I'd start at midnight and finish at 8. He came in the very quiet Chiaroscuro because there weren't many costumers on workday nights, wearing a white buttoned shirt and some tight black pants, his hair no longer with gel, was down, caressing his cheeks and looking hot messy. His cross tattoo showing between his middle part and when his dark brown eyes fell on mine, he gave me a mischievous smirk.

That was a warning for something I thought, yet that day he just followed me around. When I was at the counter he just sat on the table and looked at me working sometimes grabbing books I had in my hand making sure he touched me. It was all very weird coming from Chrollo. When I went to place the books left on the counter, he promptly jumped and walked so close behind me, so much that if I stopped his body would touch mine.

Whenever I tried to put books in higher places of the bookshelves, he'd trap me against them with his body and help me placing them even if I could reach said place. The weirdest part of it all was the fact that I was enjoying these moments, his touch and his company throughout my shifts. Maybe I should've taken Nerus suggestion of having a date with one of her friends. Maybe I'm feeling lonely, but Chrollo is acting out of ordinary. Could he also be lonely?

I almost laughed as I thought of that going home. Chrollo? Lonely? That hot man could get anyone if he wanted to, I knew that ever since I caught him stealing some of my books right when I opened the library.

Today when I walked to Chiaroscuro, a thought haunted me. What if the black-haired man suddenly disappeared like he usually did? Now that I was getting used to him being near me and enjoying some proximity. I walked in the quiet library and waved goodbye at Lin as he had the shift before me. There were many books to place today and no sight of Chrollo. I waved my fear off and started working, leaned over the counter so I could grab the first pile of books to place and as I straightened up my back hit something, a strong hand grabbed one of mine that were currently holding the books and a smooth almost lewd voice whispered in my ear. "Want help with that, Yyy/n?"

First, I felt relief that he didn't go away, then I felt blood rush over on my cheeks as his other hand fell on my hip and pulled me against him. "So?"

"Uuh... sure." I heard myself say, he grabbed the books I was holding and stood there a few seconds before leaving my back to feel cold again. I turned to look at him, it was a similar outfit than yesterday, only the shirt was black leaving him looking hotter. I sighed and grabbed another pile of books.

After placing the last book, I looked around for the pale man, there wasn't anyone else but him there tonight anyway. He was sitting on a secluded couch, "Chrollo?"

"Yes, Y/N?"

"Why are you acting strange? Is it because the dark colour around you disappeared?"

He seemed surprised for some seconds but then he got up and walked towards me, a smile on his lips. He was getting too close, so close. His nose touched mine and our eyes met. "I was feeling bored, so I've been seducing you wondering how long it would take for you to ask for something." I opened my mouth, but no words came out. What would one answer that? I was indeed falling for the seduction.
