Couch
By Alasse Fefalas
Eve would never admit it but she loved these moments where it was just her and Flynn in the Library, doing research. During one of her explorations, she had found a couch in one of the corners of the Library and had mentally claimed it as her own. With a book in hand, she had nestled herself into a corner of the couch and made herself comfortable.
It wasn't until a while later that she realised the couch she had claimed already had an owner and that she was sitting in Flynn's favourite spot.
He had tried persuading her to relinquish the couch to him but she simply told him to sit on the other corner; it was a three-person couch, they could share it.
And so he did. He spent nearly an hour trying to get comfortable on the opposite side but had only found the perfect spot when he rested his head on her lap as he stretched out.
"Maybe we could share this corner?" He had said tentatively when she gave him an incredulous look.
Ever since then, whenever they did their research together, she would sit in the corner, placing the book on the armrest, and he would rest his head on her lap as he laid down to read the book in his hands. And while Eve would never admit it, she loved it.
