Jenna's POV:

I finished reading my book that I've been trying to read for a couple of months but because of new projects and filming, I've been taking a lot longer to read this book but it's been a great read, I love it. I set it down and pause the song I'm listening to at the moment and cover my mouth, shocked.

"My god..." I let out, shaking my head, "I gotta get the next one. I have too. I just have too." I tell myself, shaking my head and smiling as I set it down, I put my earphones back in and play my music while I grab my bag and put my purse inside along with my headphones, lip balm and some other stuff. I grab my keys and head out of my apartment, beginning to walk to the nearest bookshop, debating on getting coffee afterwards even though I probably will end up getting it.

It's a 20 minute walk and a 5 minute drive but I'd much rather walk, so, after locking my door, I put my keys in my bag and begin to head down the elevator, waiting for it to be done.

I make my way to my beloved bookshop. Macy's Paper Trail, one of my favourite bookshops to go too as there is a really nice café upstairs and there's this one table that's by a window where the sun won't be exactly in your face but it's still nice lighting. I love sitting there, so, hopefully it isn't as busy today.

I head inside the shop, glancing over toward the guy and girl who are stood behind the counter before my eyes fall onto the book selections against the walls, on the stands in the middle, and that are practically everywhere, feeling myself sigh with content. I head over toward the classics first, feeling myself want to read another as I've read a few classics.

My eyes scan the whole section of Penguin Classics that I love, my eyes falling onto some books, one of them being Inferno by Dante. Knowing that it will be most likely the Italian version than then English version which would be easier too read. I set it back down, carefully and delicately. I take a step back, glancing at the books on the higher shelves. My eyes landing on Wuthering Heights, now I've heard good things about this book and I'm beginning to debate if I should get it...

However, I realise that I'm simply too short and too proud to ask for help, however, I really do want to read the blurb, look at the picture, then read the first couple of pages to see if I like it...

I try to reach it, failing embarrassingly and taking a quick glance around, seeing a woman approach, wearing the same wired earphones, a baggy blue shirt that's first two buttons are undone and showing her chest and collarbones, one side being tucked in slightly and the sleeves being rolled up, with two rings on either hand that honestly match the outfit so well, gray sweatpants that look slightly baggy but comfortable that fit nicely with some black and white converse.

I watch as she picks up Wuthering Heights and hands it to me, offering a short but sweet smile and head off toward the staircase to go up to the café.

"Um..." I mumble, glancing at the book then at her, seeing her not stop. "Thanks." I thank her, hoping she heard me.

"No problem." I hear a deeper voice reply, quickly shooting my head toward her. Seeing her glance back with the same sweet smile that softens as she heads upstairs, she has a navy-blue Jansport bag resting on her back, as she looks up and around with a light on her face that brightens her look as a whole.
