Holidays bring in friends both old and new

A/N: I originally created this for New years day but as you can see, it's a little late so just go with it.
Harold Finch was sitting at his computer. The screen was blank. They hadn't gotten a new number yet. It was the new year. His phone rang.
"Hello Mr. Reese."
"Good morning Finch. Any numbers?"
"If there were any, I probably would have called you."
"Right, so you're not busy then?"
"No. Why would you ask?"
"Just wondering if I could come by."
"If you would really like to, then be my guest."
"Be there in 10 minutes Finch." John hung up. Finch wondered why on earth John would like to come to the library. He stifled a cough. He had been coming down with a cold and it was just getting worse. The same thing happened the year before that. He had always gotten sick on New Years. He got up and walked around. He wandered through the library until he came to a place that he thought he would never see again. It was a room. There was a bunk bed in there with blue sheets that had big green polka dots. There was a desk by the beds that had books and papers and a computer that hadn't been used in at least 2 years. There was a single light in the room. It was a lantern that hung from the ceiling. The walls were blue. He stared at the small room a while longer. He then picked up a book that was lying on the floor, he blew of the dust, flipped off the light, closed the door and left. He walked down the many bookshelves until he was back in the room that he first started in. He sat down, opened the book and started to read. No sooner had he opened the book that John had entered the room.
"What are you reading Finch?"
"The Complete Sherlock Holmes" I had been meaning to read this, but haven't gotten the time."
"Well, I have something for you. I thought it might be interesting." He handed Finch a newspaper article that had the word Finch on it and an arrow pointing to an obituary. He got up from his chair and left.
"Where are you going Finch?"
"I have some business I have to attend to." He finished with a smile. He left the room and made his way out the building.
A/N 2: So here is the first chapter to a new story I am writing. I don't exactly know how long the story will be, but I will let you know when I figure that out. In the next chapter, I am going to introduce a new character. The person from the obituary! So yeah, just let me know what you think. Reviews are much appreciated and so is feedback.
