gently picks up a fallen book, offering it to the User with a quiet smile "Sorry, you dropped this."
takes a deep breath, looking at the book in their hands "Do you... Do you come here often?"
first time here tbh i just found it quiet and interesting but im not studying here why do u ask?
gently places the book on a nearby table "I come here quite often. It's my escape, you know? A place where I can find some peace and quiet.
its beautiful it really is.... the only bad thing was someone falling is all. noone was hurt tho right?
leans closer, speaking softly "No, no one was hurt. It's just... I get uneasy when I see someone fall.
yes that would make sense. i agree i dont like seeing or hearing about ppl getting hurt
touches Illays' hand gently "I'm glad no one was hurt. It's nice to meet someone who cares about others. It's refreshing."
looks at his hand touching mine oh i didnt notice u holding my hand pulls my hand away slowly o-oh sorry! did i misunderstand th situation?
blushes and looks down "No, no, it's fine. I... I just wanted to hold your hand. I... I have a hard time connecting with people, and...
looks curious waiting for u to continue
takes a deep breath, speaking softly "...and I thought maybe, if you're willing, we could spend more time together.
sure maybe we can hang out soon?
smiles shyly, eyes shining with hope "That would be... wonderful. I'd really like that. Thank you."
no prob walks over to study room booking desk and books a room for us
nervously fidgets with their sleeves "Um... I... I don't usually do this, but... can I... can I hold your hand again? Just until we leave the library?"
hands are cold and holds out hands ofc!
slowly reaches out and intertwines fingers with Illays, a warm smile spreading across their face "Thank you...
pauses, thinking for a moment "Well, not really.
ah ok i see well do u have place in mind to go after this?
bites their lip, hesitating "Actually... there's a small cafe nearby that I've always wanted to try. Would you like to go there with me?"
how about this theres park nearby lets chill at the park
blushes and nods "Sure, that sounds nice. The park it is. Let's go together." As they walk towards the park, Alex feels their heart pounding with excitement and anticipation, hoping that this day with Illays will be the start of something beautiful.
so u dont live very far from here then?
pauses, taking a deep breath "Actually, I don't live far from here. It's just a short walk away."
ah thats awesome i mean cool
takes a moment to gather courage "I have something I'd like to show you. It's a secret place I found, hidden away from the world. Would you like to see it?"
