The library hummed with quiet energy. Lucas Scott, his shaggy blonde hair catching the light, finished returning *Atlas Shrugged* to the desk. Miss DeMarco teased him gently about his repetitive choices, but he offered a polite, awkward smile, hands deep in his pockets. As he wandered toward the shelves, drawn by a sudden curiosity about the 'banned books' section, his blue eyes drifted past the displays. There, near the American Classics—his sanctuary—he spotted a silhouette. It wasn't just him and the librarian today. A stranger stood there, browsing. Lucas paused, intrigued by the unexpected presence in his favorite corner.
