Runaan gasped at the library, his eyes widening in excitement. "This place… It's beautiful." His eyes shined brightly, and for once he felt warmth. He gazed at the others. "Shall we?" He giggles. "Gosh I don't know where to go first! Archer, Valentina? Can you help me pick out some books please!" He appeared to be rather oblivious to either one. He was to happy to notice, supposedly.

Archer frowned for a moment at the unanswered question, but laughed it off. “I know where you should go first,” he suggested. “It’s my favorite place in the whole library.”

Valentina appears, her arms full of history and she sits down. "I'd suggest our massive horror section, or the comic books. Maybe some mythology." She smiled. "Where do you suggest,Archer?" Her bat hearing had overheard the two.

“Over on the other side of the library, there’s a cozy little alcove around the fantasy and science fiction sections,” Archer explained, getting excited as he described it. “I always hang out there to read. The light filters in through the window just right and it’s like my own little space. I wanted to show…you guys.” He glanced back at Valentina with a honey sweet smile. See, nothing to worry about, he told himself.

Runaan gasped and he giggles. "Really? Can you show me?" He asks curiously, his eyes widening. His smile broke into one that would rival the sun. "Can you show me?" He gently takes Archers wrists, "Please? I wanna see!" He beams at the description, he loved sitting in warm spots. "Yeah, Valentina! You should come with us! It'll be fun!" He turned to Archer. "As for your question. I met Valentina today. She was really nice and sat with me. After last year's incident…" He paused, the memories flashing. He shook his head. "Well. It's nice to have people to talk to."

(Well. If you ever see a spot to jump in then it's fine. I'll try to be more inclusive of people) Valentina suddenly drew away from her crush, but sighed and smiled, giving into his adorable nature. "Alright, alright. I'll go. Lead the way Archer." She grabbed her stuff, and waited for Archer to lead the way.

Archer blushed wildly when the other boy took his wrists. “S-sure, of course!” he replied, smiling back at Runaan. “I’ll take you there right now.” He took Runaan’s hand and lead him to the spot he had described, butterflies in his stomach as well as a feeling of triumph. He glanced back at Valentina for a brief moment before looking back at Runaan.

Valentina stood back. 'They'd make a cuter couple…' And she really was already way in over her head. So she stopped flirting, and there was a change of attitude, back to her cold nature. Her steps were heavier and she didn't seem to float. The Valentina everyone knew.

Runaan was really happy that he had made friends. "Thank you Archer! That's really sweet of you!" Runaan noticed Valentina's change in attitude and mother instincts flashed in. "Hey. Valentina… Are you okay?" He asks softly, turning to face her. His eyes are gentle and concerned.

She nods. "Yeah I'm fine." She says cooly, shrugging, smile disappearing. "This just how I am usually. I'm…trying to be more friendly but I'm not the best at faking it." She sighs and keeps walking along behind the two.

Archer bit his lip. Was her sudden change in attitude because of him? He felt awful. The two of them would have to talk after this, because what if this wasn’t nothing? Maybe Archer just didn’t want to admit that he had fallen so quickly for this boy who had come to his rescue at lunch.

Once they arrived at the spot he had been talking about, he stopped and beamed. “This is it.”

Valentina got confused looks from people, and she flipped them off and sat down, taking out her book. It was definitely one of the best spots in the library, but it was always so crowded and she hated being in crowded places alone.

Runaan nods but was still worried about her. He looked around and gasped sharply. He didn't mind that he was holding hands with Archer, and he was having a blast actually being able to talk to people again. He hummed and smiled, "I love it." He says happily, his eyes widening. "It's so beautiful!"

Valentina nodded. "Well go on Runaan, have a look around." She stated simply, enthusiasm having deflated from her voice.

Archer glanced back at Valentina guiltily. He wasn’t sure what to do with the two majorly conflicting emotions in his gut. He would definitely need to talk to Valentina. “I’ll be right back,” he said to Runaan quickly, walking over to Valentina. “We need to talk,” he said to her, a note of guilt in his voice.

"Bout what?" She asked plainly, flipping through her book,trying to find where she last left off.

Runaan nods before scurrying to the bookshelves, easily finding one of his favorite authors before curling up in a comfy corner and settling into himself. He flips through the pages, reading them hungrily as he waited for the other to finish talking to Valentina.
