Peace and Quiet (open)

[Gabby Brocklehurst]

Gabby slipped away and wandered down the corridor. When she came to the library she eased the door open and peered in, seeing no one, she sighed with releif and went in. Choosing a comfy armchair in a corner she settled down, getting some well earned peace and quiet.

It had been the best place to go and she knew not many people came into the quiet seclusion of the library. But she almost wanted someone to wander in, ever since her return, school had felt emptier and she had often felt lonely, though kept it well hidden from professors, not wanting them to worry.

Gabby closed her eyes and dozed off...

[Alsandair Verity]

Alsandair wandered in to the library, mindlessly walking to his usual spot by the window, falling into it slightly before looking around. He smirked softly upon noticing the girl that had managed to fall asleep and leaned back against the chair, looking up at the ceiling.

it was always so nice in the library. It seemed that although there could be others than himself, he just could be alone, and was able to think and ponder. He hated delving too deep into his thoughts, as it often caused him headaches and usually accentuated his bad temper, but the library always managed to appease that.

Alsandair pulled out a book, looking at the girl out of the corner of his eye before letting the book's words consume him.

[Gabby Brocklehurst]

Gabby woke and was immediately tense. She opened one eye slightly and looked around. She noticed the boy, engrossed in his book and relaxed, maybe he hadn't noticed she had fallen asleep. It was a bleak hope though as he hadn't been there when she came in.

She sighed and eased into a sitting position in the chair. She looked over at the boy but didn't say anything, not knowing what his reaction to being disturbed wuold be, Gabby felt awkward and didn't know what to do. She waited to see if the boy notived she had woken up.
