At the library

I looked onto this mountain of homework. Sighing, I rested my head on one arm and looked at the paper before my eyes. My eyes glazed over the text. A wave of drowsiness washed over me as my eyes were pleading my brain to let my eyelids fall. The embrace of sleep was so tempting. The hot weather was certainly not helping my situation. It is like Agni just loves to see me suffer. As my eyelids fell, I mustered all the energy I have left and rose from my seat like a zombie, and dragged my feet to the toilet. After dunking my head in water (A/N: the source of water, your choice xD), I felt a bit more energized and decided to take a walk to the library.

By the time I reached the library, I felt like a roasted chicken. Agni certainly loves to toy with me. I was drenched in sweat, and with my bag pressed against my back, the heat accumulated there made me feel awfully uncomfortable. Finally, I stepped into the library, breathing a sigh of relief as I felt the rush of cool air. Thank god it was air conditioned. If not, this place will surely become a sleeping centre. I pressed my fingers against my temples as I felt the slight headache. Walking in slight zig-zags, I tried to make my way to the usual table I go to. Only to knock into a small girl.

Now, I can officially say that someone up there, I mean way up there has a grudge on me. So, I punched the bookshelf out of frustration. Bad decision. Really bad.

"OW!" a scream resounded in this quiet library. Then I realized it came from my mouth. Blushing, I sheepishly blew at my reddened knuckles. Then I looked down at the girl I ran into, my headache forgotten. She was sprawled on the ground. She proceeded to sit up and glare at me with those misty green eyes of hers.

She has straight black hair that is as dark as the night. The long hair falls behind her elegantly, while a green hairband divides the rest of her hair from her bangs that hung loosely in front of her eyes, seemingly shielding her eyes from the rest of the world. She has a small nose and mouth that make her seem so small and helpless. She wore a typical green t-shirt and a black shorts. She wore a sports shoe, seemingly too small for her size even though she was really tiny looking. From the scratch marks and loose pieces of fabrics, I can tell that there was a severe tug-of-war between the shoe and the owner. I wonder why she did not just untie the shoelaces. To be honest, if I want to summarize, it would be one word. "delicate"

"Sorry!" I held my hands in front of me, as a sign of apology.

"Watch where you're going, girlie. These people here sure don't need that high-pitched singing, you know?" she raised an eyebrow, sarcarsm layered heavily in the 'singing' comment. She was surely a tomboy, despite the delicate appearance. I was about to retort that I was a boy, until I thought of my scream just now.

"By the way, do you have any idea how to get out of here? These stupid shoes are the worst curse I've had so far in my life! How am I supposed to sense the seismic vibrations?" her previously pale white face reddened with frustration. I nodded and pointed in the direction. She gave no indication of seeing me do anything.

"Girlie, I hear the swishing sound of you pointing at something but puhhh-leeasseee can you people be less dim-witted? I'm blind! How am I supposed to see where you are pointing to? Especially without my beloved earth?" the girl sighed in exasperation.

Misty eyes... Oh yeah right. I took her wrist and headed towards the exit. Realizing what I was doing, my face heated up further, and my heart rate quickened. Oblivious to me, the girl behind was blushing as well, smiling to herself.


The girl is quite obvious as to who she is, ain't it? Honestly, I find her nicer looking with long hair than a bun. As to who the boy is, is just a typical dude in our world, named... Er... Any ideas? And the title too. Any suggestions?
