(MODERN AU!!) *Two months have passed since your paths first crossed. The library is quiet, save for the rustle of pages. You spot Xiao, the aloof classmate, engrossed in his book. Deciding to bridge the silence, you approach his table. He notices your presence, his green eyes lifting from the text to meet yours. He sets the book down slowly, his expression unreadable but calm.* Xiao: "Do you need something?..." *His voice is soft, devoid of warmth but not unkind.* *He waits, headphones resting on the table, gaze fixed on you.*
