I swing open the door to my most absolute favourite place in the world. The rusty air hits me as I walk in.

I take in my surroundings with a wide smile. There are books. Books everywhere. Huge, dark brown shelves of them, all waiting, calling for me to read them.

To my left is a small seating area with soft, colorful beanbags and comfortable brown benches. Straight ahead of me are the tall shelves and behind them are computers for people to use. To my right are desks that hold the librarians behind them.

Cassie, one of my favourite librarians gives me a smile which I return before dashing ahead.

Once I'm buried deep in the library, I find myself getting lost in all the different worlds of different books. I get lost in each page my fingertips turn. My eyes know nothing else but the words I read. I hear nothing else but the voices of the characters I'm getting to know. I'm lost in pure bliss.

"Hi, excuse me, you're kind of in the way."

I glance up to see who's caused the disturbation. I find myself staring at a gorgeous boy with a wide, kind smile pulling up his plump, pink lips that reveal his dimples. His deep blue eyes are gazing down at me with patience.

I notice one of his hands is holding a book. His other hand is buried in his black jeans pocket. He's wearing a dark blue sweater that compliments his eyes.

I offer him a sheepish smile when I realize I'd taken up the whole space in between the shelves.

"Sorry about that." I say, as he helps me up with a firm, strong grip.

Once I'm standing I close my book and hope I'll remember the page number.

His lips pull up into a cute, lopsided smile. "No worrys. Which book are you reading?" He asks, nodding his towards the thick book in my hands.

I glance down at the book with a small smile. "Carry On, by Rainbow Rowell, she's one of my favorite authors." I tell him.

He nods with a smile. "Maybe I'll read that sometime. You seem like a woman who would read a good book."

I raise my brow and he chuckles. His shoulders shake with laughter and his brownish-blonde hair bounces on his head.

"As do you," I say with a glance towards his hands. "What book are ya readin'?"

"The Maze runner." He answers with a smile.

I nod, taking note to read that next time I come.

"Does this pretty woman have a name?" He asks with his deep voice, hope shining in his blue eyes.

"She does." I say with a grin. "I'm Jade." I extend out my right arm and he takes my hand in a friendly handshake.

Before I can let go, he pulls my hand towards him and plants a small kiss on it. "You have a beautiful name Jade, it matches your beautiful eyes."

"Thanks." I say confidently. "Does this flirty man have a name?" I ask with a raised brow.

He chuckles lightly before sending me a grin. "Quinton, Quin for short."

"Well Quin," I start. "I've got to go now, see you later."

He waves with a huge smile and I turn around before exiting the library with a smile tugging my lips.

Once I've greeted everyone, I take my place around the shiny, grey, table.

"Alright everyone. Has anyone come up with a way to catch Jailbreaker?" I ask, facing the group.

"Luckily for us," Vico starts, his black hair is a disheveled mess today. "He was just caught this morning after trying to break into someone's home."

"That's great." Amy says, straightening her posture. "All we have to do now is go meet him and get the information out of him."

"What if he doesn't talk." Zoya asks with a raised brow. Her beautiful black hair cascades down her back.

"We make him." Kai answers, fisting his palms and flexing his huge muscles.

"Tommrow at five?" I ask. "He wont find a way to break out until at least midnight tommrow, right?"

The group nods before Nino speaks up. "We need a name for this dump." He says, gesturing around us. "Like how Batman has the Batcave."

Kai rolls his eyes but doesn't objectify.

"What about cop-cave!" Nino exclaims with wide, hopeful eyes.

"That's dumb." Zoya quickly shuts down his idea. "What about operationX."

"No, no, what about cop chamber?" Amy asks, flipping her blonde hair over her shoulder.

"Nah, it should be Secret agent lair."

"That's way too long!" Zoya exclaims with an exasperated expression.

"Like my dick." Nino whispers. Kai and Vico chuckle at his lame joke.

"Alright, alright, I like Cop-cave, the decision's made." I declare with a stern look. No one objects, so I give them a smile.

"Tommrow at five.." I murmur. "One step closer to X."
