"Don't you know that?" he said

"Know what? " I asked

Dear Diary,

Happiness are different from other people, like me spending my time alone at the library.

I was sitting alone with my essays and researches and a tower of books covering me on the table. People rushing forward and backward, grabbing the books they needed. It was a hectic day.

Library is the only place I really want to do all my work, because it's quiet and I can really focus. I want to invite Quil and Clare, but they're busy on something.

"Napoleon and his army? That's too bold for a title don't you think."

I looked around and saw a girl in front of me.

I raised an eyebrow and asked her

I raised an eyebrow and asked her.

"Well how would you write it?" I said

"I don't know, maybe" she then grab my paper and pen and starts writing.

"Napoleon: An Emperor's Revolution." she finished with a dot.

"Wow. That's a great title, thanks" I said

"Oh sorry I forgot to introduce myself I'm Lucy Ray, just Lucy."

She then offer a handshake to me and I grab her hand.

"I'm Max Bane, just Max. Nice to meet you."

We we're completely staring at each other, and I just notice her beautiful eyes looking at me. It was great until Quil and Clare pulled me.

"Um, excuse me can I borrow my friend for a second." Clare said

"OK?" Lucy said with confusion.

They then grabbed me to the corner of the library, far away from my workplace. They were pulling me quickly and suddenly we we're running away until we stopped at the end.

"Just what are you thinking? Talking to Lucy." Clare angrily said.

I glare at her, "What? Why? What's wrong? Can't I talk to a girl? You should be happy for me, because for an Introvert it's hard to talk to people, and well I just conquered one of my fears." while crossing my arms.

"We're not saying you can't, but it's Lucy, freakin Lucy Ray." Quil added

"What about her?" I replied

They gave each other an alarming eye contact.

Quil then tossed a distressed call. "Max, it's sad to say that Lucy Ray..... that Lucy Ray is a werewolf!"

"What!?" my voice echoed throughout the library.

"Nah just kidding, she's not. This is a teen fiction not a werewolf category. Hey don't Forget to Rate." he said

Clare then slapped him at his chest. "Quil just stop! Look Max, Lucy is Jacob's girlfriend. You know Jacob right?"

"Well Yeah"

For everyone to know, Jacob is the school captain of the football team. He's charming looks made him the ultimate school hottie and probably responsible on half of the girls heartbreak and virginity loss. The dark side is, he's one big jerk. He beat up students with his gang. Every student he got a beef is surely dead at the morning.

I gave Quil a frazzle look "What about him? "

"Don't you know?" he said

"Know what?" I asked

"Jacob asked his gang to beat or even salvage every boy Lucy talks, because he wants her all by himself. There once a freshman who talked to Lucy, the next day he end up in the hospital. He got eyes everywhere, and Lucy, she doesn't know that her boyfriend is beating up every guy she talks to. We don't want you to be the next Mr. Beat It, because of Lucyfer" Clare clarified

Quil then burst into laughter, "Mr. Beat It? Lucyfer? Good one."

"What the hell!? That's messed up. I just want to talk to her, maybe I can explain it to Jacob, that I have no interest on her girlfriend." I answered

Clare then grab my hand and gave me a terrifying look "No don't do that. Just please in any measure, stay away from her. Don't talk to her, OK?"

I then removed her hands away from me.

"Alright, I won't"

I was quiet at that time. Thinking the consequences I could face if I continue talking to her. I'm worried about Lucy. She's a nice girl and she doesn't deserved a bastard boyfriend. I hope things gets better between the two of them.
