3- You look like you needed some company, my name's Viola."

A/N
Hey the only person that voted you know who you are and I love you (even though I don't know you)!This chapter is dedicated to you, bahahaha I'm so weird.

"Michael! Hey! Michael!" A familiar voice yelled. I turned around. Ugh no, what was she doing here?

"Natalie..."

"Hi, it's been awhile." My ex-girlfriend smiled at me. Why was she here? Why is she talking to me? Does the universe fucking hate me or something?

"Yeah, I guess." I shrugged, what was I supposed to say to the girl who broke my heart? There was an awkward silence, her smile slowly faded as I stared blankly at her. I didn't know wether I should feel sad or angry.

"Listen, I'm really sorry about how I left you. I mean it was selfish of me and-"

"Hey, let me stop you right there! Don't be sorry, I should be thanking you! My life has been great, I mean I wouldn't have been able to do all the things I did if I were with you." I flashed her a fake smile. She looked surprise and a little hurt. I'm glad.

"Oh ok, well good for you then!" She did her little nervous laugh, that I used to love but that now made me feel nothing. "Well, I'm going to go now!" She waved and I didn't say anything back. Finally she left. Thank god.

Suddenly a wave of sadness went over me, I ignored it.

Turns out the girl at the library was right. All those writers had different definitions of the meaning of life. Though they all turned out to be interesting. Of course, I just flipped through them, I'm never going to have the patience to read all of those page by page.

I was debating on wether I should go back or not. I would get to read more of those books, expand my knowledge...I decided against it. Not today.

I was finally home. I passed by the kitchen and opened the fridge, taking a beer.
I heard the front door open, accompanied by a high-pitched giggle and a groan. More precisely Luke's groan, yes I know the sound of his groan, nothing sexual though. (A/N: lmfao Muke for life)

I rolled my eyes and ran up to my room. This is a shared fucking apartment, a little consideration please. I lied down on my bed, and took my phone out of my pocket.
I was browsing through Instagram, liking a few pictures. I dropped my phone, the loud moans and thumping startling me. That little shit. Of course Luke's room had to be right next to mine. "Lower the fucking sound!" I growled, knocking on the wall. They didn't.

I mumbled profanities, as walked out of my room slamming the door behind me.
I need some peace and quiet, I knew I wasn't going to find it here, so I went to the library.

I don't know why I suddenly wanted to go there but I did. Damn, I'm flaky.
I walked in and grabbed a couple of books, sitting at a table.
"Hey!" A familiar beautiful voice said. I looked up to see the same girl as yesterday. Is it me or did she look even prettier than she did yesterday? Wow she wasn't kidding when she said she came here often. Did she not have a job?
She smiled down at me, books clutched to her chest. She pulled the chair across from me put and sat. I stared at her blankly, almost too surprised to react. What the hell did she think she was doing? I frowned at her. "You look like you needed some company, my name's Viola." She stuck her hand out, as if expecting me to shake it. She's invading my personal space does she not realize that? I just looked at her hand and back at her. She took it away awkwardly. She shook it off and asked anyway, "what's your name?"

"Michael."

"Great!" She smiled, opening her books. I didn't stop staring at her though. She was weird, I mean she just sat down next to a perfect stranger. She hadn't worn a headband this time, hair falling down and covering her face, I couldn't see her eyes since she was looking down and her long eye lashes were covering them.
She suddenly looked up and I looked down, acting casual as if I wasn't just gawking at her like a creep. A little smile adorned her face, and we just stayed quiet the whole time. I hadn't felt so comfortable yet so uncomfortable in my whole life, it was a strange feeling to be honest.

When I was about to get up to leave, she looked up. "Did you enjoy those books?"She asked, as if she were genuinely interested. I nodded, and walked away. That girl...she was so peculiar, so...happy. It was overwhelming.

I put the books back down, I looked discretely over my shoulder. She was flipping the page of her physics book. I ran a hand through my blond hair, I had stopped dyeing it from fear of becoming bald.

I glanced one last time at the strange girl named Viola before walking out of the library.
