The next day, Heidi found herself in the library, once again. It had taken around an hour of persuading from Anna for her to even turn up, not wanting to face the teenage boy again but with her sad look and guilt tripping, she'd managed to convince her to go and she hated herself for crumbling so easily. She could've at least bargained a better deal for this hard work she was about to put in.

Earphones in, once again, Heidi stepped down the aisles, locating the teenage boy sat around a pile of books. He was easy to locate as he stuck out and she was so thankful she didn't have to look for too long. Gulping nervously, she ran her hands down her skirt and took a deep breath. Those acting classes better pay off, she thought to herself as she strutted through the aisle, heading towards the distracted boy.

"Knew I'd find you with the books, nerd." Heidi commented, dropping down beside him as she placed the giant file she had in her hands onto her knees. "Now, I don't know why I did this, except my insatiable need to be right, like all the time. It's starting to become an issue, but..." she motioned to the file in her hands as he moved his eyes to the paper, "so, I googled and ta-da."

Jeremy chuckled as he accepted the giant file, flicking it open and looking at what she'd given him. "Now, what is this?" He asked her, his eyes trained on the paper in his hands.

"My proof." Heidi replied and he finally looked up, raising a brow as she corrected herself. "Well, sort of."

Various articles of animal attacks in the area stood out to him, all saying the same thing, speaking of rabid beasts the tore innocent humans apart. Heidi had added some articles where she had been involved, just to make things much more amusing for herself. When he'd read at least five articles, he tore his eyes away and sent the girl an inquisitive expression.
