NOTE: i might have made some spelling or grammatical errors or used she/her by mistake since i mostly write M4F stuff so i'm sorry in that case, just replace those with they/them.

Monetisation is allowed. If possible i would love to listen to the audio

A library? ugh...typical

No..you're not coming with me.

I can't hold and drag them infront of 50 other people.

I'll go alone and I'm gonna use my VERY charming skills, trap them and bring them back with me on their own will. That's how this is gonna go. Got it?

Go. I'll bring them home with me.

[scene fades away] [next scene]

Um... excuse me...can you help me find me this particular book right here? I've been looking for it since the past one hour but no luck.

Uh...wha... really..?

Okay...you caught me..i lied.

The truth is, i had to talk to you without being an absolute piece of creep.

Well...thank you for not finding me creep (giggles)

But really...is this book good? Honestly...i don't read but i want to start...

I do listen to audiobooks but those do more harm than any good to me..once i touch my phone it just doesn't stop and i never finish more than i chapter. So. I decided to start reading them instead.

So are you willing to help me find it?

Thank you. (giggles)

[SFX: light footsteps bc they're walking along the shelves trying to find the book]

So are you going to tell me your name or should i call you bookworm?

That's a really pretty name. I'm sure everybody says that but...i meant it i swear.

By the way..i'm grayson huxley.

Yes...huxley as in...jonathan huxley's son. Older son.

God thank you! You really made it easier for me. Also now...i'll strive on finishing this book as soon as possible so i could get to you see you when i come back to return it.

Well i do acknowledge the fact that this was extremely sappy of me but i might want to come see a friend. We are friends...aren't we..? I mean we know each other's name and you just walked for 5 whole minutes to find me a book. Nobody does that for someone anymore unless they're friends.

Okay. fine. Yes. I do wanna be friends with you...

What about a nice a lunch or....dinner? Tomorrow...?

I mean...you can call it a date if you want to...i won't do that..because i'm smart..i don't wanna lose my chance by being a creep on our first ever meet so i'm going to call it just a nice little dinner. But if you want me to call it a date...i can do that too..just for you... (giggles)

So you're from here or...here okay..

No i never saw you around the town...

Oh...oh okay...that makes sense...study abroad...so you're on a vacation i suppose?

Two weeks huh? Well i better make it count..

[SFX: phone rings]

Um would you mind waiting a second ...it's my friend..thank you.

[whispers when talking on call]

Why are you calling me...i told you i'll handle this.

No i can't just do that..

No that is not true...i'm not playing with anybody's feelings (giggles) we just met 15 minutes..and you don't even know what we're talking about.

Okay okay you know me. But then you know i do everything up to the mark. Just let me handle this okay? And stop calling me..you're interrupting my flow. Alright we'll talk about that when i come back. Bye.

[no more whispers lol]

That was my friend... he's waiting for me. He did not know i would get a reason to stay longer than two minutes in a library.. (giggles)

I need to go now...but...never mind...bye..

What...my number..?

Yeah...right...how would text me about the dinner...right...

Can i have your phone? Thank you..

[SFX: dialling number]

There you go...just text me the address and i'll be there in 10 minutes..

It was nice meeting you...bookworm..(giggles)..bye...

Right...i should go..yeah...okay.. (giggles)

[a little louder and excited]

I'm looking forward to it. Okay? I'm going now..

Byeee... (giggles)

[scene fades away] [next scene]

I had a doubt you'd be here.

I have a date tomorrow..come on be a good friend and help me pick a nice gentleman outfit. I have to win their heart.

Oh come on..it's not just me. They're enjoying it too. I have a soulmate and i don't get to do on a date with them? That's unfair. They're gonna die anyway so why not give that sweet thing a good time before all that shit? I owe them that much (giggles)

It's not that deep Justin...They like me. I can see that in their eyes. I'm just feeding them. I'm not the bad guy here. I wanna make it better for them. I could have done what you told me too but they're a nice person and it's too bad that i have to killed them but it's a do or die situation for me.

Come on..don't be such a pain in my ass now. I need to prepare for my date. Win their heart remember? (giggles)

[scene fades away] [next scene]

[door knocks] [door opens]

Uh... (nervous giggle) wow...um.. you look really beautiful...

Oh...um thank you...i took two hours to pick my outfit even though all of my clothes look the same.

Yeah..ofcourse..i can come in..

Uh yes...this is for you.. beautiful flowers for a beautiful thing like you.. (giggles)

Pretty house huh..

So you stay alone here? Any friend or family?

Uh...okay...

No nothing.... are you ready?

Yeah.. we should get going...

No..i'm not in a rush i just... wanna spend more time with you...guilty (giggles)

Come..

[door opens and closes]

[footsteps] Do you want to do somewhere specific? Like some people do have a special place... they love the food their or maybe just the place..

You're right... it is definitely about the person but i just wanted to be safe you know. I don't wanna get dumped on our first date... (giggles)

May i..?

Yes ma'am. I know you can open your own door but i am a gentleman.. let's not forget that....

[car door opens]

All set?

Okay.

[door closes]

[door opens and closes]

The belt..it's important. I want you to be safe. Here.. let me help..

[belt clicks]

Perfect. Now we are all ready to for our dinner.. date? (giggles)

Did i tell you how beautiful you look?

I did? Okay... i'm sorry but... i'm being a creep at this point... (giggling) no really... i need to start the damn car.

[SFX: car starts and starts moving]

I have a really beautiful place in mind...

[car sfx fades away] [next scene]

[SFX: people talking lightly till they're inside the restaurant]

Excuse me..? Can i get one two caramel latte for now?

Hey do you want anything else?

No thank you..that's it.

So as i was saying.. my dad is mostly out for business all the time.

My mom... she left him. He was unfaithful to her more than once.

No that's fine. She's happier now. She got married to a better man. She even has a daughter she's 17 years old.

Yeah... it's been a while. not so fresh separation.

Yes. I do. I visit her quite often.

My brother?

Uhm... actually.. he's not my own brother. That doesn't mean he's any less than that. He's one of my dad's...

Yeah... The woman left their child to him and just disappeared. Not that my dad had any problem in keeping him or fulfilling his responsibilities as a father. Infant he was a really good father. To both me and him. He loved us equally and i think that's what made us real brothers. There was no competition, no jealously... nothing. We would be happy for each other.. in each other's success and stop each other from doing something stupid and wrong. I keep using past tense but we still do.

I was 2 at the time. I had no idea what was happening. That my dad cheated on my mom. He was a kid (giggles) My mom and dad used to have a lot of fights. I don't remember most of the things but just glimpses of it.

That's when my mom left. She said she couldn't be in that house with someone who reminds her of my dad being unfaithful to her. I mean...i don't blame her. Even though my dad was a great father..i hated him for cheating my mom. But my brother.. iit was never his fault. He was so innocent and pure. I tried to make my mom understand that but she didn't. She was adamant on leaving if my dad didn't get him out of the house but he didn't...

I love my mom... (giggles) Don't get me wrong... but that day.. i was proud of my dad for doing something right for the first time.

I lied to you that day... in the library..i told you i got a call from my friend.. it was him. my brother.

I try to keep it that way... hidden from everyone else.

Our family is a problematic one. A lot of people know us. Big businessmen, contractors, CEO, murderers and things that a worse than that. I just introduce him as my friend because these people tend to target the family whenever something goes wrong and i don't want to put him at risk. He's too young for this life.

I think you'll love him.

Ofcourse! Next time i promise.

Would you like to order something? Actually the question should be something like... what would you like to order?

Me? I'm hungry i won't even lie.. (giggles)

I'll take the same.

Hello..yeah.. can we get to chicken fried steak?

Thank you so much (giggles)

What? (giggles) No!! She wasn't flirting.

No she was definitely not. She was just being nice.

Oh so you can tell huh? How?

Wait a minute....hmmm...

Are you jealous? (whispers) (giggles)

I'm just messing with you (giggles)

[scene fades away] [next scene]

[Sfx: whatever you think fits during late night maybe crickets or something?]

Yeah we need to walk for 2 minutes. They didn't let anyone park outside.

Well...yeah..a Huxley could park right here but... not if he wants to spend some more time with someone.

Uhm... do you wanna maybe... come back to my place..

Not in that way... no..uhm...

I just want to spend more time with you...I can show you around. You can meet my brother and maybe just talk for a little while..? I promise...i will drop you home whenever you want to.. that's only if you even wanna go...oh you do..?

Are you sure? I swear on god. If you think i wanna do something...okay...okay... overthinking... i'm sorry i just don't want to mess this up..

Uh uh..i get to open the door..

[SFX: car door opens]

My pleasure (giggles)

[SFX: car door closes]

[SFX: car door opens and closes]

Anddd...the...belttt...Perfect.

Don't worry. It's just a 15 minute drive from here.

Yeah you can play songs. All yours. (this song part is completely optional so if you put a song only then say the lines related to it)

[SONG: mine by shmoo (you can find it on youtube. please credit the artist if you happen to use it) or maybe any other songs you like]

[a little pause for the song to play in case you put the song]

This song... it's beautiful... (giggles)

I don't usually listen to romantic songs but i think you can change that (giggles)

[scene fades away] [next scene]

[SFX: huge door opens and closes creakily]

(giggles) It's a little old fashioned but you know it's ancestral so they don't change anything.

I don't think my brother is home...he would have hopped right in. He's a bit nosy.

Yeah it is kinda huge for three people but i'm hoping it won't remain three for that long

(laughs) Sorry that was cheesy.

I uhm...i had a really nice day...or night... (giggles)

I'm glad you did too..

Yeah ofcourse you can sit.

Honestly i'm happy that we got to spend tonight together but now you have 13 days left in town..i just... (giggles)

I'm sorry if i'm annoying you i... (listener kisses him)

(they kiss for a while)

(giggles) can i... (kisses)

Can i kiss your neck...

(neck kisses)

[SFX: bites listener's neck and socks blood]

Nooo... don't move... it's okay.... (blood sucking sounds)

It's okay... you'll be fine... (more blood sucking sounds)

Good girl.. yeah... don't struggle... good girl...

(stops sucking)

(catches breath)

Oh my god...hey..! Did you just...pass out...

Ugh...

Well then...see you in the morning (giggles)
