My favorite enemy

Chapter ten | books & assholes

After Mr. Smith sent us to the library, I decided to pick a more secluded spot towards the back to work on my assignment.

We took a break from the book which saddened me a bit, but regardless I got out my computer and started on my writing assessment.

The two subjects I never struggled with are reading and writing, but if you held a gun to my head and asked me to solve a math problem with letters.. I would be dead.

The only thing I ever struggled with was starting any kind of writing assignment, but once I got the hang of it it ran smoothly.

I hovered my hands above the keyboard before hesitantly lowering them to begin writing, it didn't take long for me to start my hook and fly through it.

I decided to take a break and pull out my phone, just as I do I see a familiar face walk in.

Levi walks right in, no care in the world.. He doesn't even take a glance at me despite what happened in the classroom.

This worked my nerves, I didn't care if he seen me watching him or not. I watched as he walked toward the book shelves and began browsing around, I've never even seen him read willingly.

Without a second thought I get up and walk over, instead of 'browsing' in the same row as him I decided to go one over.

I decided to pick up a few books and pretend like I was reading the back, all the while I kept looking at him through the empty slots where books were once occupied.

"Oh, this one looks interesting.." Levi says aloud and I almost get startled, I wasn't expecting him to say anything. I kept 'reading' the back of the book I was holding while listening to him talk.

"This one is about a stalker, someone who scouts out people in the library while they're trying to find a book.."

I look up as he says this and I find him looking back at me through the gap in the bookshelf.

"Is there something you need?" He ask's nonchalantly as he continues looking around at the books.

His demeanor pissed me off even more, how could he act like nothing happened?

"Yeah actually I do." I continue.

"What the hell was all of that about on Monday? You don't even know me and apparently I'm an 'entitled brat.' Who do you think you are?" I say, presumably pissed off.

He laughs before setting the book back in its place and turning his attention toward me, it was rather ridiculous that we were talking through a gap in the bookshelf but I sure as hell wasn't going to walk around to completely face him.

"I don't have to know you to know that you're an entitled brat, I helped you out and I don't get so much as a thank you?" He scoffs, now looking almost as annoyed as me.

I look at him like he's stupid, which right now he's acting rather stupid if you ask me.

"I told you, I never asked you to do that for me. I'm a grown w-" I'm cut off by the sounds of him shuffling towards me, making his way down my row.

He stops in front of me, that same look in his green eyes as he towers over me.

"Did you know that Daniel was in there with you?" He steps closer to me and I feel my heartbeat quicken.

"You were drunker than shit, damn near passed out in one of the bedrooms upstairs and Daniel was hovering over you like you were some pawn for him." He says in a low tone, inches from me.

I get chills as he talks, I don't know what it is but I've never met a man that I can't argue with. I can't argue with Levi for more than two minutes without getting flustered.
