Nathan's POV

I walk into the schools library and look around and I see what seems to be a euphoria of books.

The librarian walks past me and I stop her to ask just how many books are in this library.

"Excuse me uh...How many book shelves
Are in this library."

"Quite a few my dear, it's a maze I the book shelves, but a good place to walk amongst books if you like that sort of thing- oh here, have some stickers in case you lose your place in the library everyone gets a different set hehehe ."

She says adjusting her glasses and walking away, she's so nice!

I take a second to take in the whole library...They even have Bean bags!!

Wow this place is so coo-

"OOF!"

I bump into someone again dropping all my books UGH! What's with me and dropping everything.

"Watch it!"

"Sorry!!"

I scramble to pick everything up but the girl I bump into picks up a curtain book.

"Lasting Night Vaudevillian story..."

"Uh y-yeah I love the Lasting night Book series...Do you?"

"Yup...Angst,Horror,death, Anything a goth would love right? Here."

She hands the book to me.

"Uh...Thanks, my name is Nathan by the way, Nathan wilde."

I reach out to shake her hand and she takes it reluctantly.

"Ariana...Mikazuki- what school are you from?"

"What?"

"I've never seen you before...So you have to be new right?"

"Uh yeah I'm from Adams high."

"...You pulling my Leg."

"Nope I'm a former Eagle."

" Wow, your soft spoken for someone from there...You look nerdy, how'd you survive?"

"Running fast, Hiding, and being good at dodgeball."

She chuckles a bit and walks off.

"Yup, you and I will get along just fine, see ya around Wilde."

She walks off with a smile...She's very scary but she seems nice.

Hmm, I look at six bean bags not being used by...Well anyone, the ones being used the most are with near or farther away from the book shelves.

"Hmmm"

"Oh do you want to use one of those six? We just got them...First come first serve even though we have plenty already."

Okay. one Red, one yellow, One green, one purple and another blue and the last one is orange.

I walk into the maze of books and It's break and the break at this school is fairly long...By that I mean break is literally a hour, seriously who ever made this school is a beautiful person.

As I make my way through the maze I finally reach the center...All the books around look old and new and untouched!!

OH MY GOSH!! The whole Everlasting night trilogy!! It's all here! All ten of the books! This is amazing! This place is my heaven!....Which way is out?

Oh! Before I head out again I take out a pack of stickers I got from the librarian and place them in the path I took back Witch didn't take that long. I'm pretty good at directions if I do say so myself.

I walk back over to the bean bags.

"...hmmm alright...Time to get to work."

I carry each of the beam bags one by one each time coming back and going in I get weirded out stairs from everyone in the library. But I don't care.

-Time Skip a Bit-

I look at the circle of bean bags I put in the diamond shaped center of the Book shelves maze.

"I knew you would find it."

"Huh? Oh it's you!"

The librarian smiles at me.

"I knew someone as smart and soft spoken as you would find my special place in this library...I've worked her since I was only 20 can you believe it?"

She says with a look that looks back at memories.

"Uh how old are you? Whoops!! Sorry I forgot that rudes to ask a lady!!"

I cover my face in embarrassment and she chuckles.

"No it's quite alright I'm....Uh."

Is she?...Thinking about how old she is?

"Uh what?"

"Uh.z79, yes I'm 79 years old, I'm a old thing I don't really remember my age heheheHe."

Hmmm...Okay!

"Well you look a little younger."

"Thank you young one..."

"So what about this place being a treasure place?"

"I've put all the books I've read and want to read here."

"So there are older books to!!"

"Well of course, and I'm glad you've found it. Please enjoy yourself here, I must tend to the library as always...I also love the bean bags, they make the place shine.

"Thank you and I will."

She walks back into the maze and I fall into the green bean bag.

"...I think I'm gonna like it here."
