Mrs.Peckingsworth had just finished dealing with a noisy group of primary school children and let out a sigh of relief as she was surrounded by a blissful silence. The babbling of the year 5 class was becoming fainter and fainter. Looking round at the nodding heads of the local college students, quietly studying, she swept her flecked grey hair into a loose bun and sat down to sort out the newly returned books.
After a few minutes she noticed the murmuring of the students, straining to hear what the kafuffle was about, she heard a noise: a soft yelping of a dog, as though in pain was coming from the more obscure shelves of her library. An angry flush rose to her face, more meddling kids spoiling the peace of her library. "Not on my watch" she muttered under her breath.
Pushing her cushioned chair away, she rose, letting her thick rimmed reading glasses fall from her ears onto a chain round her neck. Students turned and stared at her. She realised that she looked foolish, bright red in the face as she was, but at that moment she just didn't care. She headed towards the origin of the disturbance, deep in the geology section. With each clicking step she took the noise became louder, until the dog was almost howling, like a wolf. Then she could hear a man's voice too, gruffly grunting, "Yesh, Yesh, YESH!" She rounded the corner, and –
"OH MY FUCKING GOD!" she yelled at the top of her voice. All eyes were on her, nobody had ever heard her raise her voice before, let alone swear. "Out, OUT!" She yelled, she retreated as far away as possible, pressing her back against the wall, disgust thrown across her face like vomit. Copies of "Magnetite in Southern Tennessee" and "Seismology in Derbyshire County" fell with an echoing thump from the high oak shelves. "Get out of my library! Get out of my SIGHT!" she screamed. Some of the female students cried out in shock as a grey bearded man ran past, hitching up his trousers, closely followed by a thirty centimetre tall cartoon dog wearing a brown paper bag with eye hols on his head, his tail drooping between his legs. The door slammed behind them.
Mrs.Peckingsworth turned to the students, "What the fuck are you all staring at you ungrateful BASTARDS?" she yelled, storming into her study, the door slamming, shaking window panes, leaving the students petrified in nervous hush.
