Alex's POV

Welp, we're screwed. We dropped the papers. Adellah isn't going to be happy. We're probably going to be stuck trying to organize all of this all day. Fortunately, most of them stayed in their folders when they fell so we're just trying to figure out where all of the loose papers go. 

"Um... maybe this goes with this?" (Alex)

"Maybe. Uh... this looks like numbers and stuff. Let's put this in that pile." (Ben)

"Right. This probably goes there too." (Alex)

"What about this, Alex?" (Ben)

"Uh... no idea." (Alex)

"Do you think Gray would know?" (Ben)

"Probably." (Alex)

"What are you doing?" (Teddy)

"... We messed up." (Alex)

"Any chance you're done with your tasks already?" (Ben)

"We finished a few minutes ago. Don't tell me you're going to ask us for help." (Teddy)

"Yeah, please help." (Ben) 

"Dude, just go tell the front desk that you messed up." (Teddy)

"You know what, why didn't we think of that? How much time have we wasted here?" (Ben)

"About thirty minutes." (Alex)

"Right, I'm going to go tell Adellah." (Teddy)

"So... how did you manage to get these papers to span the hallways from the office all the way to here?" (Gerard)

"Paper carrying race." (Ben)

"What?" (Gerard)

"I tripped and grabbed Ben in an attempt to get back up. He just ended falling down with me." (Alex)

"Alright then..." (Gerard)

"Oh dear, oh no." (Adellah)

"Sorry Adellah." (Alex)

"Ah- what papers were these?" (Adellah)

"I think we got them off of the desk next to the pet cages. They're not super important are they?" (Ben)

"Those are lists of things that need to bought for the pets and required treatments." (Adellah)

"We're going to be sorting these papers for a while, aren't we?" (Ben)

"Yes." (Adellah)

*Sigh* (Gerard, Teddy, Ben, Alex, Adellah)

Gray's POV

"..." (Gray)

This hasn't been as bad as I expected it to be. He hasn't overstepped his boundaries and has just been watching me read, he hasn't even said a word. It's peaceful. 

"Um- we're closing the library. I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to ask you to leave..." (???) 

Is that the pool house part-timer? Why is she here? Wait, what time is it?

It's 10:00 P.M. 

The library should have closed hours ago. Why did they let us stay for so long? 

"Donald, come on, let's go." (Gray) 

"My oh my~ are you trying to lead me around now?" (Donald)
