Travis pov

I left the poor girl with out even realizing it. I forgot how short she was. She seems to be a quiet one, I thought black girls are loud and all compared to this one-at least that's what my friend told me. The only thing I saw when looking down at her was some of her face and the top of her head. How can she even move with those short legs? From what I saw in the class room she had a round face, chubby cheeks, full lips and dimples.

She had the most mysterious brown eyes I ever seen, they looked as if like she were to be hiding something. I heard shy people can hide the biggest secrets.

It seems she knows where the library is, maybe a freshman. She sure looks like one. "So...I was wondering if you could maybe help me find a class?" I took out my folded schedule. My dad showed me my classes during after-school hours, yesterday, I+ just thought I could make this one talk. The whole walk is kind've quiet anyway. I gave her my schedule, she looked at it, "We both have the same class I can show you since we're almost at the library- its over there, first class to the left" she points.

Diane pov

We was at the library and got a few looks from people-at Travis specifically. "Hello Diane." Mrs. Armstrong, the librarian waves. She's a young librarian, 25, who worked here for 5 years. Black, cocoa brown skin, red lips, Earth-kissed brown eyes adorned with glasses. She knows how to dress very well and is neat when it comes to that. She has some spunk and sass, "Mmm. Who's this? The prince of the class!" she eyes Travis then me.

"We're partners for a project!" I speak up,

"Partners? Surprised at that-most likely you didn't have a choice. So what's the project on?" she asks, raising an eyebrow accompanied with a smirk.

"We're doing something on space or something like that from a speech class." Travis says, wow such an extrovert he is.

"Astronomy? Well well Travis I think the astronomer is right beside you. She loves some astronomy-"

"Er, Travis lets google some things that we can research on!" I proceed to move to a computer, leading Travis, I give a playful glare at Mrs. A, as she gave me a wink and pointed at Travis, doing the 'Call me sign'. I roll my eyes and sat down beside Travis. No way, he out of all people is going to have my number.

"So, 'Miss. NASA Girl' gimme your best shot" I raise an eyebrow. The other pairs from our class came in and sat near us, " I won't bite~" he purrs as he takes a piece of paper out and gives a pencil to me, a pencil from Travis? So many people would kill me for this pencil. Wait he can purr? "What do you want to do?" I ask quietly, hiding the small laugh.

"You're the wiz, choose one." he smirks, man he has a cute face. I think, something simple....."Venus?"

"I forgot Venus was a planet. Isn't it that the red planet or something?" he leans his head on his arm on the table. I mentally face palm myself. "I heard its the planet of named after some goddess... " he trails off, I slide the paper and pencil to him as he started writing some simple things. "So why'd you choose Venus out of all the other things you could've picked out?"

"It just randomly came up, and it's pretty cool." "Mmkay." I looked at his handwriting. Wow, he writes so neat! I noticed almost all the girls and guys in the library taking them a few peeps and looks. I quickly looked away, "So we'll just work on the basic things for today" I nod.

"We can start with origin of the name, the type of planet, orbit etc." I nod again, "Well, Venus is named after the Roman goddess of love. Venus is a terrestrial type, despite the thick clouds; its the hottest planet in the system since the clouds trap intense heat not letting it escape- like a mirror with sunlight." "Sounds like a lot of green house gasses to me." I smile at the joke, "It orbits backwards around the sun-"

"Wait it does?" "Yes." "You're smarter than I thought. Surprised NASA didn't pick you up yet." I almost 'blush' at the comment, I shrug it off with a small chuckle, "A day on Venus is longer than a year, since it spins slow on its axis- so you basically celebrate your birthday twice in a day." he continued writing the things I said down.

"Oh and it spins opposite the direction of its orbit, so it orbits the direction the other planets go around the sun....Am I talking too much?" I nervously laugh, letting my finger twirl around in a strip of hair-my favorite strip of hair, when I think a lot I do that. "No not at all."

"I just get too much into it when I talk about things like this ^^;"

"You're fine" he focuses on his writing. No u. "So do you know anything?" I ask, "It's next to us. That's all." well, he tried. I almost laughed,

"Well we do need pictures, we can stop for now"

"Sure. We can google some pictures." he stretches. I took out my phone and looked at the time, "We gotta go, class is almost over." I lay it on the table and began to pack up my things.

We was walking to class in a hurry trying not to be late, "You're the only person I've talked to today that hasn't freaked out" he starts. "What?" he catches me off guard "Nothing. It's just that you wasn't giving me googly eyes like the others in the library" he says, "What do you mean?" I ask again. "Well....I saw a lot of people in the library, didn't you notice it?" he asks, "No, why?" "Look behind you" I turn around and saw a bunch of people walking out of the library, "Oh." I look dumbfounded. "You're the only person I've talked to today that hasn't freaked out, you know that?" "What? To me you're a person just like everyone else."
