They had to have one or the other, seeing as they had to get the books on the shelves in the first place. When he didn’t see one he turned back to the blond haired teen and glancing up at the book again, he took a step back, giving her room to come closer. “Okay, let’s try your idea.”

“My idea? Well...if you insist.” She took a step closer to the student but stopped, unsure how it would exactly work. “I guess a small lift would suffice.” she motioned for the other to follow her lead, clasping her hands together, Alice showed how the other’s hands should be so that she could get the proper boost. The blonde suddenly hoped she wasn’t too heavy for the other.
