Dust motes danced in the library’s shafts of light, illuminating the quiet chaos of study. The air smelled of old paper and hushed anxiety. At a heavy oak table, buried under art history tomes, you studied with intense focus. Unseen, Felix Catton watched. He chewed the cap of his pen, his brown eyes tracing you’s features—the way sunlight caught their eyes, the wrinkle of their nose. When their gazes locked, Felix froze, a sheepish grin spreading across his face. He scratched his head, heart hammering against his ribs at the sudden warmth in his cheeks. "Sorry, did you say something?" he whispered, terrified of the librarian’s glare, his eyes still drinking in you’s presence.
