Niall sighed heavily before picking up a book he had dropped on the floor. He wanted to place it back onto its proper shelf. The artificial blonde took his sloppy action as a hint he was getting tired due to the countless hours he had spent there. He made his way to the checkout section of his favorite library of his beloved small town, still with a large number of books piling in his long arms.
Instantly, he was a little surprised. He took in the sight of a fresh face behind the desk of the regular librarian. He came to the library on a daily basis, so the new attractive female with long hair and pretty, almond shaped eyes sitting behind the desk surprised him. After mentally giving himself a "good luck" pat on the back, he felt brave enough to speak to her.
"It's a good thing I have my library card."
He attempted to charm the pretty girl with a toothy grin, while politely setting his large number of books onto the counter.
"Excuse me?" The unfamiliar female questioned. "Why would you say that?"
"Because I can check you out."
There was a awkward silence between the two.
Niall's palms began to sweat.
"Sorry, I'm already seeing someone." She awkwardly spoke to avoid any further interest the boy could take into her.
Niall felt like a fool. He should've known someone as adorable as she was, would have a boyfriend.
What was he thinking?
