If you ever get close to a human and human behavior be ready, be ready to get confused

There's definitely, definitely, definitely no logic to human behavior

The library was a place that Tuberose very rarely went. For all he knew, the place was full of gnomes and monsters. Libraries weren't necessarily his area of expertise. Stepping through the front doors, however, he was hit by the sudden scent of . . . old book? It was a little musty and a little elderly, and it reminded Tuberose of a retirement home. Scrunching his nose up, he turned to take in the whole library. It sure was a strange place; rows and rows of books along with isles and isles of computers as far as the eye could see. Or, not exactly. More like from wall to wall, which still managed to cover a lot of space. Tuberose glanced down at the carpet under his feet and was almost disgusted by how old it looked. Apparently not a lot of the money from the school's budget went into maintenance of the library. He wondered why. It's not like most of the school avoided coming in to the damned place, right? Haha. He for sure wasn't one to spend his evenings in the library. Which begged the question as to why Tuberose was actually there. Taking a few steps into the room, he looked like a baby cow attempting to take the first steps of his life; completely bewildered and yet determined.

Sometimes Tuberose really hated living in an apartment because when something was messed up it took forever to get it fixed. His internet, for example, which had gone down two days ago in some terrible accident, had yet to be fixed by the apartment maintenance. His complex wasn't even a crappy one, which bothered him even more. The point being that the week when his English teacher decided to assign one of the biggest papers of the year also happened to be the week that he had no internet at all. Shuffling over to the isles of computers, Tuberose pulled out a seat hesitantly and sat down. Luckily there wasn't all that many people using the library at the moment, and for the most part he was all alone in his own little corner. For Tuberose's sake, he needed a secluded area to work or else no work would be done at all. It wasn't his fault that he loved socializing and had one of the shortest attention spans on record to date. Things just happened, such as getting completely side tracked by some one else and never accomplishing a bit of work. That tended to happen a lot to Tuberose these days. And unfortunately, his grades had started to reflect it once more. After failing one year already, Tuberose's main goal in life was to not fail another one. It wasn't fun, despite all the jokes he was able to make about being held back a year. If he wanted to accomplish his goal, Tuberose knew that he needed to step it up. Only he didn't exactly know how to do that. . . So the library was his first step towards improving his grades himself. Setting his backpack down on the ground next to him, Tuberose looked at the blank screen.

His fingers moved over the keyboard slowly, as if he were afraid a ninja would pop out of no where and attack him for being in the library. He signed in and waited for the computer to load. Why was it that school computers were always so much slower than the others? Was it some unspoken rule put in place just to make impatient students like Tuberose pissed? He stared with glazed eyes as the little loading button swirled around on his screen, his mind already traveling far away from his project. His legs started tapping against the ground and his fingers twitched over the keys. When the computer was finally loaded, Tuberose clicked on the internet button and---guess what!---he had to wait for it to load. Except this time it was taking a much longer time and he was having a hard trouble sitting still. Wriggling around in his chair, Tuberose desperately felt the urge to walk around. Sifting through all the thoughts that were running through his mind, Tuberose figured it wouldn't do much harm if he went over to the books to do some. . . research, right? After all, it wasn't like he was an expert on the topic anyway. Research never hurt anyone. Standing up, Tuberose quickly walked over to the book shelves.

Eyes widened in a display of amazement, Tuberose could believe how many books there were! As a kid he hadn't been much of a reader and had never really read the books assigned in class. No one did, really, or at least that was what Tuberose thought. Sure he liked English more than any of his other classes because it made the most since to him, but he sure wasn't a literature buff or anything. People who could force themselves to read for hours upon hours amazed him. Scanning down the shelf, Tuberose tried to read every single title he could see. Of course that would have taken a while so he soon gave up. Turning around, Tuberose walked over to one of the round tables that was in the middle of the library. Something suddenly jumped out at him from the table, and Tuberose knew in that one second he was in heaven. On the table was a book about kittens! Picking it up, Tuberose quickly flipped through the pages. They were so damn cute! Tuberose sat down on the floor right there, behind the table, and started to look through the book happily. His research efforts quickly forgotten, Tuberose found himself giggling at the cute pictures of the little kittens as time began to slip away from him.

Kendra had been sitting in the library for almost two hours researching Eva Peron for her Latin Civ class. She already had a headache and just wanted to be done. Taking a long sip out of her drink, Kendra moved away from her table and walked over to one of the shelves trying to find the book she was looking for. She was grateful for all the school work she had to get done lately, it allowed her to get her mind off of the fact that she and Shane had had sex and she was just way to confused about how he may feel about her. She wasn't about to think that Shane saw her as just another bimbo. She heard giggling to her right and looked over and noticed a boy sitting on the floor. She knew instantly who it was, only one boy in this whole school would sit on the floor of the library and giggle like that.
"I never thought i would catch Tuberose Helheim in a library, let alone reading a book" she told her friend, her voice sounding amused and letting him know she was just joking. She really did like Rose, but he could act like a sugar high four year old most days and it was hard to get him to focus on any one thing, which made her frustrated a lot of the times they were together.

"what are you doing here lovey?" she asked him sitting on the chair next to where he was and leaning over to look at the book he was reading and turning into a school girl over. She almost laughed out loud when she saw that he was looking at a book about kittens. It was so Tuberose that she couldn't help but laugh. He was such a good kid and so carefree, something Kendra wishes desperately she could be.

"so how have you been lately?" she asked him. Honestly Kendra had been so busy lately and so wrapped up in falling apart that she hadn't really gotten to hang out with him.
