You were at a library looking for a book about royals. That was your obsession at the moment. You were so curious about what happened in the homes of people with a special bloodline. What makes them special anyway?

You found the history section, which most likely contained royal books. The section was empty, which made you feel a little better. You were the type to be muttering under your breath and squinting your eyes at books. You tried not to do it often because people would stare.

There were a lot of books but you didn't seem to know where to start. "Do...do you need help?" a voice asked. You gasp because you didn't expect anyone to be here. The person started to walk towards you. "Oh, I didn't mean to scare you. I just walked past and you looked so lost," he says sheepishly. This guy was like a giant. Even though he was the same size as the bookshelves, he seemed very kind and gentle. "It's alright. I didn't know anyone was around," you say quietly. You look down at your feet, unsure of what to say next. "Uh...so! What type of book are you looking for?" the tall guy soon asks. You look up at him. "I'm looking for anything on royals. It's my thing at the moment." You chuckle at the end of the sentence. "Ah. Royals. I got you," the tall guy says. He walks down the aisle and studies a book. He eventually pulls the book out of its place. "'Meghan: the Queen of the United States of Saherta'." The tall guy hands the thick book to you. "Ah...Meghan Markle. She's amazing. She went from an actress from the Republic of Padokea to queen in a whole new country," you say in awe.

"And she's beautiful," the tall guy cuts in. You give him a look and shook your head. "I mean yes but I believe her knowledge is most important. When you're leading a country, your face shouldn't really matter, Mr..."

"Oh! My name is Leorio. And agreed. She's a very wise woman," Leorio agrees. You nod, again unsure of what to say to continue this conversation. "Could I get your number? Maybe we could talk more about powerful leaders?" You bit your lip, mentally debating on his request. You finally start nodding before pulling out your phone.

The two of you exchange numbers before going your separate ways. When you thought about Leorio, you felt some heat in your stomach. Sometimes it was fluttering. Maybe it would be nice to see him again.
