"Sweetie I told you not to get on the ladder-" Mrs.Donna's soft spoken voice rings out through the empty library. 

"I'll be fine...i'm almost done anyway." I say leaning back slightly to catch a glimpse of her soft features. I meet her gaze and slowly smile at her as she breaks out into a white teethed grin. 

I missed the library and seeing Mrs.Donna. I'll admit I have been a little distracted in the past month or so but coming here is like my escape. 

"Okay well i'm leaving make sure to lock up and i'll see you whenever you remember you're poor old friend here." She says making pity me eyes. 

I internally sigh. Mrs.Donna can be a tad dramatic at times but I love her. 

"Goodbye" I say softly.

I watch her turn the corner of the hall and hear the door shut. I continue to dust the shelf putting back all the book where they once were all while humming the lyrics to Knee socks by the Arctic Monkeys. 

I mean what a lyrical masterpiece .

I step off the ladder and put it away before heading to gather my belongings. 

I sling my backpack across my back and that's when I hear it. The door open and close. 

"Library's closed" I say low but loud enough for whoever walked in to hear. 

I hear footsteps...loud ones. 

Okay I've watched a couple movies too know that this is the part where the really dumb girl dies.

I decided to try one more time maybe it was just the wind.

"The library's closed." I say again more sternly. 

I hear the footsteps getting closer and closer. I slowly drop my bag and grab the closest book next to me. 

Well if i'm going to be killed...then i'm killing the person killing me.

Double Homicide...literally. 

I won't even go to jail...cause i'll be dead.

I step closer to the sound of footsteps coming around the corner. There's a lot of things I wanted to do before I died.

Meet Jeff Bezos.

Bungee Jump.

Fall in love. 

Meet Jeff Bezos.

 Go to Bora Bora.

Be rich.

Talk to my dad one more time without it ending in me bleeding. 

Meet Jeff Bezos.

I take one more step before I yell and turn the corner slamming the book into the first thing I see. 

"OW FUCK!" I hear a very very familiar voice say.

I look up and see Elias clutching his stomach and painful look on his pretty face. 

Guess i'm not dying. 

I drop the book at the realization that I just hurt someone and quickly begin to tend to him.

"OMG! I'm so sorry" I say repeating that same phrase for the next minute.

"Ragazza pazza del cazzo" He says groaning. Translation: "Fucking crazy girl"
