"You're a very kind-hearted man"

Melissa

I hummed as I brushed my teeth while dancing in the shower. It's Saturday so I guess spending time alone at the library will do. I shook my head laughing as I bobbed my head up and down while listening to the loud music from the radio.

"Okay that's enough Lisa" I told myself, while washing the excess toothpaste around my mouth, I gargled with water and spit it out on the sink, wiping my face with a towel.

I went to my closet, dropping my towel 'butt naked' since nobody's here and my windows are closed. I shrugged throwing clothes out for me to wear.

I just have a crop top, and a high waisted jeans to go with it with my plain black vans.
I shrugged getting up and getting my bag, and went downstairs.

I walked out of my house and sat on the near bench, beside the bus stop, waiting for a ride
After 8 minutes of waiting I finally heard a honk in front of me.

I made my way into the very back of the bus which is my peaceful and comfy side or seat ever,
I plugged in my earphones and open my bag and get my book 'Piano Tiles' out.

"Nice book you got there" a voice said, making me jump from my seat, I looked beside me to see a very nice looking man, His blue eyes looking straightly back into my brown eyes ones
"Franco" he said handing out his hand, I shook it "Melissa" I said

"That's a nice name" he said, "I quite can see that you're a bookworm type of girl" he said looking at my book then back at me, I nervously laughed "Uhm yeah, kind of" I stuttered every single word looking completely dumb.
He chuckled "No need to stutter young lady in fact we just drove past the library" he said with a sly smirk.

My eyes widened and I screamed "Stop!" I ran towards the bus driver and told him to stop the bus, The bus finally stopped and the bus door opened, I made my way out of the bus and stopped myself when I reached the ground and looked back inside, to where the Mr. Nice, "Thank you! For making me lose my destination" I said sarcastically, He smiled and saluted.

I hopped out and waved bye at the driver and he smiles back, I groaned as I look where I was now, "Great now I have to walk" I said "Well thanks to Me.Nice making me lose my stop!" I said while laughing sarcastically, "Funny" I mumbled while starting to make my way to the library.

The bell rang when I opened the front door of the library, I smiled and head my way towards the librarian,
"Melissa! My dear what a pleasure to see you again" she said hugging me "It was also a pleasure to see you again Ms.Thomas" I told her while pulling away from the hug, "Ah! I have such wonderful books for you to read" she said while grabbing my arm leading me to the new delivered books shelves.

She looked at the books and finally stopped her gaze on a brown book that quite looks familiar. She got it and handed it to me 'Romeo and Juliet' "I know you heard alot of stories about the two, but trust me this book is different" she said "Well I have to get going, you can borrow it if you'd like" she said before disappearing.

Yes I have heard alot of stories about this two, but hearing her say that this is different makes my curiosity grew even more. I shrugged and went to the shelves and find my self some new interesting books, I looked at the shelves from the very top to the bottom to find myself a good book to read. I walk slowly to a pile of books, Maybe these are the returned ones.

I shrugged and went to look back at the shelves,  I read slowly each spines and when it interests me I will surely borrow it. I looked closely and through my peripheral vision I saw a guy also looking at the books from the other side of the shelves, I looked at him and He looked back at me, he smiled and I returned it.

He disappeared, and I shrugged and I continued to look at the spines, then I felt a hand tickled my side making me jump and squealed, I turned around to see the same guy with black nerdy glasses.

"Hello" he said awe, he's so cu- He's not!

"Well hello" I said while smiling, he smiled "I am Elliot, Elliot Scott uhm I am a bookworm" he stuttered, awe, I smiled "I am Melissa" I told him shaking his hand, "Melissa Monroe" she said, he raised an eyebrow "You're not related to Manilyn Monroe or anything right?" He said completely shocked and confused, I laughed and shook my head "No" he smiled,

Then he started to shuffle his feet while scratching the back of his neck, "Uhm Melissa?" He chirped, "What", "I know I only met you but" he stopped looking at me pleadingly "wouldyoumindhavingacoffeebreakwithmeIdontmeantosoundacreepbut" he said so fast that I didn't get it

"I'm sorry Elliot but what?" I told him and he nervously laughed, "I said uhm, would you mind having uhm having a- er coffee uhm-" he said nervously but I cut him off, "Would I mind having a coffee with you?" I told him and he nodded smiling as he sighed, I laughed "No, not at all"

"Well let me help you" he said helping me carry my books and he took them in his hands, We made our way to Ms.Thomas to borrow the books, I handed her my book card and she put the books inside a box, and stamped it borrowed, she got my book card and wrote the time and date, "You can bring them back whenever you like" she said smiling as she hand me my card.

I nodded "Thank you, Ms Thomas", I waited for Elliot as he borrowed the book and completely same process.
