"Why do you love her?" She screeched. "Because I'm scared that if I stop loving her, I'll start loving you!" The words slipped, and the words turned the hallway into a thick silence.

Kate. An average high schooler making it through the easy life of senior year. Her first period is free so she spends it at the empty library just studying. Noah. A baseball player. He's not some extremely popular boy if that's what you think. He's average. His first class is some sort of math that no one cares about. He passes the library everyday. One day while Kate was in the library and Noah was running to class to avoid the late bell a gun goes off in the hall. Noah sprints immediately to the library door while the few people left in the hall scatter into remaining classes. Kate and Noah have to face this journey together. Trapped in a library for nine hours isn't fun and especially when danger is outside. They are forced to befriend one another and have to comfort each other during their times. It leads to a new romance and an amazing friendship. --- SPIN OFF TO THE STORY OF US CAN BE READ AS A STAND ALONEc
