Aemilian usually sat in the exact same place in the library, a quiet and dim corner. The brunette was so often found at the same desk that people knew of it and kept the seat free for when he'd come back. Except for this time, someone sat where he usually did. Although a bit annoyed, Phelan wasn't upset and didn't bother asking for his seat. After a bit of walking around the library, he found a seat in another corner that he deemed good enough.
This seat would be his new corner for the next few months. Instead of going back to his usual desk after this one time, he decided to stay. Not because the chair was better or the light softer, but because he spotted someone near that intrigued him.
He wasn't shy, he was much more of an introvert so it was willingly that he decided to look at them from afar. Until one day, it was their seat that was taken and instead of looking for an empty one like Aemilian, they sat at the same table as him.
