He checked his pocket watch to get an estimate of how much time he had before his next lecture.Quarter after; she should be there by now.The "she" was the newest part-time coed working at the library to make a few bucks between classes. She was a junior studying Communications and just transferred from California last semester. He had met her trying to find where a book on supernatural occurrences around Native American burial grounds without a code might fit into the Dewey Decimal System."That'd go in the 800's over in that isle," he said, pointing with a bemused expression behind a well-read book on Ancient Chinese Architecture that belonged in the 700's and not the 900's. She didn't seem to get the joke, so he set his book down and gave hers a quick look.They tried for a few minutes to find a place for it among the labyrinth of shelves to no avail, and eventually agreed neither would tell on the other if they placed it in the Returns bin for some other unlucky librarian to figure out."I'm Gabrielle," she said and offered him a very lady-like handshake. After they got over the fact that their names were practically the same, they went to a little cafe not far from campus to have a cup of coffee.Since then, the two had agreed to meet each other in the library when Gabrielle was working the shift. Gabrielle went and got the books he needed, and he got to watch. An arrangement that suited them just fine. She was getting paid and he was getting some work done on his book.He wasn't really in a hurry to get into anything serious, but he was tossing about the idea of asking her out on a date for a few days now, and he thought today might as well be the day.Maybe I should bring flowers... he thought as he was coming up on a flowerbox outside of an abandoned classroom. He grabbed a handful of snapdragons, dusted the dirt off of them, and continued towards the library with a mischievous grin.</blockquote>
