No, your eyes are not fooling you, I have finally undated with a new and longer chapter for you to feast your eyes upon :P haha, anyways sorry it took sooooo long for me to update,  lovee you all and hope you enjoy :) xx Oh, and just a pre warning I haven't edited the chapter yet so sorry for any mistakes :P

"Shit!" I shout, looking down at the clock on my phone while pushing my chair back, jumping up and grabbing my stuff off the huge wooden table; earning myself a disapproving look off Mrs Williams the Libarian for my 'foul language and excessive noise' and yes that was a direct quote from the last time I disrupted the peace in her school library. Ignoring her glares I turn my attention back to Jenny who, just like me, had fallen asleep in the middle of doing work in our free period, but that's what happens when you have to wake up at an ungodly hour in the morning for the first time in 4 weeks.

"C'mon Jenny" I say urgently whilst violently shaking her shoulders "We have to go or we're gonna be late for English!" I hiss in her ear.

"Wait. Where the hell is Toby!? oh, my, god. We're so gonna be late." I say, sitting back down in my chair, starting to rub my temples in an attempt to stop a headache from occurring. I cannot be late. I have never been late to a lesson in my life, and in my 6 years of coming to this school I have had a total of only 12 sick days. Ahh, I swear if these two are going to be the reason I have my very first late I just might have to strangle them.

"Argh, he's putting a book back." Jenny replies lazily as she sits up and stretches before making eye contact and noticing that I'm giving her daggers. "and it's NOT my fault we fell asleep!" she half whispers half shouts at me so not to grab the attention of the Librarian.

"argh, whatever, we have one more lesson to get to today and I'd really appreciate it if you two wouldn't make me late!" I hiss back at her as I stand up again from my seat to go in search of Toby, leaving Jenny to collect both her own and Toby's' belongings off the wooden table before following after me.

"Oh my GOD! I wish this library wasn't so damn big" I grumble as Jen and I race up yet another flight of stairs to the 3rd floor in search of Toby.

"But it is beautiful though" Jenny muses' while looking around at the thousands of books that are all perfectly placed in books shelves that surround us in an uncluttering manner; and she's right, our odd shaped circular school library is beautiful. In a way I guess you could class it as a forest for the simple reason that everything is wood, well, apart from the automatic doors, lifts and computers.

On the ground floor there's a massive circular oak desk in the centre of the floor, which is where the head librarian is usually located, as well as it containing the student help and information centre. Surrounding this oak desk a couple of meters away are 12 separate study rooms of various sizes, all containing computers and projectors. However, on entering the library if you take a sharp turn left or right there are two massive wooden stair cases that extend up to the 5th and final floor of the library, however, branching off and stopping for the landing of each of these floors.

Besides from the ground floor the different levels of the library contain rows upon rows of books, with various seating and computer areas for students to do work. However, the 5th floor is more of a relaxed area, which is why its at the top as people usually end up talking and hanging out up there; it also contains one big conference room that contains one computer and projector, whereas the rest of the floor is filled with DVD's, CD's, Magazines, comic books etc and big plush sofas and beany bags to fill the floor space. However, even though I understand that we need to have a massive library like this to be able to accommodate for the large intake of students, due to there being 2 classes for every year, it is really inconvenient when you're trying to find someone.
