it was late, way too late, and aria would really rather be in bed than in the restricted section section of the library right now. but she had to get this done. ‘just 15 more minutes’, she thought, and let out a yawn. the sound of someone knocking into a nearby bookcase made her jump, and aria immediately took out her wand. the sound of footsteps grew louder; aria took a deep breath, bravely stepped into a hall of bookshelves, and- “oh!”, she sighed audibly, and dropped her wand. “it’s just you,” she smiled weakly. “i’ll make you a deal, alright? i’ll tell you why i’m in here, and in return, you’re not going to tell anyone you saw me. got it? and vice versa.”

aria slumped down on a cool stone bench, worn out from classes. she dropped her bag at the end of the bench, and lay down, resting her head on her rough, hard bookbag. “just 15 minutes”, she thought, and quickly dozed off. but within 5 minutes, she was jostled awaken by a poke on her shoulder. “whaaaat?” she groaned, blinking her eyes against the sun. she squinted at the person standing above her. “i was just really starting to fall asleep,” she sighed, “did you really have to wake me?”
