That day, Nico decided to go sooner in the library. He had almost finished The Goldfinch and he was curious about the ending. That book was breathtaking.

He sat at his spot and actually took his time to finish it.

It was night when Nico actually finished it. The sun had been already gone hours before.

He had underlined a load of pages, he wrote his thoughts in the corner. It was ready to be gifted to Will. Sadly Nico couldn't leave the book without being sure that Will would take it.

Unintentionally Nico fell asleep in the library, with his head using his book as a pillow.

He woke up later, in the middle of the night. He checked his phone, ten past four was shining bright on his display.
Nico sweared while preparing his bag with his school books which where all over the table.

Suddenly he heard weird noises. It sounded like there was some clattering. Maybe someone, or something, was walking around.
Nico's breath shortened as he felt his heart leaving his chest.

Panicking he took everything he could see in the dark and escaped the library as soon as possibile. Fear had gotten over him, he knew that. Still, you can never be too careful.
