If you were to walk down past about five rows of book shelves, you would find a boy sitting quite contently on the floor. Leaning against one bookcase, his feet propped on the bottom shelf of the one across. Stricking green eyes are focused on the book in his lap, although they look a little lost. He has presumably sunken into the world of literacy. Where anything can happen. Blonde hair is slightly ruffled, he had been running his fingers through it again, as you may notice.
Black jeans are pulled onto his long legs, their pant legs touching his black shoes with the black and white checkered laces. He hasn't changed out of his uniform yet, instead he has just changed it. His house robes lay rumpled beside him, his white dress shirt's buttons undone. White tank shirt underneath clinging to his muscular upper body. It took him all summer to get that! Collar was flipped up, so that it was hiding half his cheek. The red Lioano tie undone and hanging from around his neck.
Kai Soudai had become bored, and had retreated to a place that was quiet yet full of adventure. The library. He was not always there, but when bored he turned to books as his companions. Where he could sink out of reality for a little bit to amuse himself. Books to him, can be a world of entertainment. If you are reading the right one. He closed the book with a snap, a frown on his face. Even reading was starting to get boring. This whole day, the only eventfull thing had been pulling those two girls out of the water.
He sighed, and glanced at the bookcase in front of him. Staring mindlessly as the book titles began to blur. Starting to get lost in his own thoughts.

Faith had left Scarlet a while back. Kai had left before the two of them, and they had bid him farewell. She had went up to her room and changed. She was now wearing a simple white t-shirt, even though it was rather tight. It wasn't low cut, and it had shorter sleeves than boys' shirts. She was wearing dark blue jeans and a belt. It was all pretty simple, and she had thrown on a pair of black flipflops to go along with it.
She had traipsed down the library, sitting in one of the comfy chairs by the fire. She was reading, but she soon wanted another book. She returned that one to its shelf, looking down the aisles. As she looked down one, she spotted a boy at the end. He was sitting on the floor, leaning back against on book shelf and propping his feet on the bottom of another. She paused.
The boy had blonde hair, and she recognized him immediately. It was Kai. She smiled slightly and walked down there towards him. "Hey, Kai. Find anything interesting to read?" She stopped about two feet from where he was sitting, looking down at him. If he wanted to be alone, she'd probably just walk on after saying goodbye, but otherwise, she might sit down with an invitation.

He hadn't heard her approach, so when she spoke he sat up. His feet coming off the bottom shelf, and hitting the floor with a smack. "Jeez, Faith..I thought you were that library lady..." His hand was in mid-air, as if he was going to clutch his chest where his heart was. Realizing that it was rather stupid looking, and rather girlish, his fingers clenched into a fist and he brought his hand back down to rest on the floor.
"I've been kicked out before for loitering..." He smiled, then continued "Nah..thought I found something..it ended up being trash" He tilted his head toward the book that he had tossed across the aisle and now lay haphazardly near his feet. Kai's green eyes looked at the book for a second, then he turned his head back up to look at Faith. "Take a seat...at least now that your here I don't have to stare into oblivion...that is unless you were looking for something" He said.
He shook his head slightly, so that his blond bangs would fall from his eyes. He needed a haircut soon. Well, he kept telling himself that but it never really seemed to happen. [/size]

She laughed and said,"Yeah, she can come up on you like that. She's scared me tons of times already..."
She smiled and said,"So did I. It wasn't really much, and I was just looking to find another book, but then I saw you." She sat down beside him and said,"Besides, talking to you is much more fun than reading a book. Book's get a little boring after a while..." She smiled. Boy, did she know.
She looked at him and said,"So what kind of books do you usually read?"

His shoulders shrugged before he actually replied. "Hell I dunno...whatever catches my eye.Probably why I can never find a good one" He chuckled and brought his knees up, so that his elbows were resting on them. His hands clasped in the air that hung between his knees. He leaned forward and grabbed the book, then sat back again. "This one..is rubbish" He took out his wand and murmured that stupid spell they were taught back in first year. The book levitated back to its spot.
"What kind do you read?" He said, turning his green gaze back on Faith again. He was glad she had decided to sit with him. [/size]

She laughed and said,"Really? Rubbish? Well, that's a fmiliar story..." She watched the book float back to its spot on the shelf, smiling slightly. She looked back at Kai as he spoke.
"What kind do I read? Well, pretty much anything. If it looks good, I'll read it. I'm not too fond of school books, but I'll read those to do homework." She smiled slightly and shrugged. This was much better than reading that boring old book, and she was glad she had found Kai here.

"Oh no..don't even talk about school books. My brain still hurts from all last years reading!" He groaned, a pained look on his face. Then he smiled, my my Kai was a good actor. He ran a hand through his hair, it ruffled up like a rooster. He self consciously smoothed it back down again. Kai had a thing for hair. Who knows the hell why, but he did. When he was little he used to run his fingers through his moms hair when she cuddled him before bed. He supposed it was a source of comfort. He knew he had separation anxiety and abandonment issues. The only thing he didn't know, was how they came around to be.
He looked at Faith. He liked her hair, it was weird that he did, but he did. It was a nice auburn color almost. He had to clasp his other hand to keep himself from touching her hair. He shook his head. "Faith I think I am losing it..I have fallen off my rocker" He said, his green eyes really wide. "What I am going to ask you is completely weird and random...but can I touch your hair?" Oh god..did he just say that out loud? Yes...yes he did. He wanted to slam his head against the book shelf. That was it, she was going to get up and walk away. Thinking he was a complete weirdo and needed to seek professional help.
O.o.c// Oh my! xDD I have had a guy ask me that...I was like o-okay. It was sorta cute the way he asked me though. He was blushing because he thought he was being wierd. Then I decided that he was being really cute not really weird. >.< [/size]

She laughed and said,"Yes. I understand completely..." She shook her head slightly. Last year had been harder than ever, but she had managed to get it done with her brother's help.
When he asked if he could touch her hair, she paused, a little surprised. Then she smiled and said,"I've never had anyone ask me that before... But sure!" She smiled and said,"You caught me off guard, but I don't think you're weird at all, Kai, if that's what you were thinking."

"I wasn't worried that you would think me too wierd..but maybe I little mentally unstable" He said quite seriously. Even if his eyes were laughing, he was acting again. Ash always said that Kai should be an actor. He always shrugged it off, but hey, it was part of his charm. His hand rose up hesitantly, and his fingers gently caught her hair. The dim lighting off the library making it shimmer ever so slightly when it was moved. He ran his hand through it, then brought it up near the side of her head. He ran his fingers from where her hairline started on the side of her face, right above her ear, and out. So that her hair gently went between his fingers. A soft smile was on his lips, her hair felt like his moms. Soft and silky, yet not too soft that it was hardly there. It had a thickness to it.
He pulled his hand away abruptly, his green eyes darkening for a momment. He had touched her hair, he really needn't have carressed it. Kai really didn't know what had made him run his fingers all the way through her hair. However, he had and that was that. Think what you may, he didn't care anymore. "I really like your hair" he said, his voice coming quite soft and low. Almost like a whisper. [/size]

She laughed and said,"Well, you're not that either!" She smiled, feeling his fingers running through her hair. It sent chills down her spine, but it was the good chills. It felt really good.
When he stopped abruptly, she guessed why, looking over at him. His voice was low and soft, and she smiled and said,"Thanks." She hesitated before asking,"Do you mind if I touch your hair?" She wasn't teasing him, she was being serious. Completely and totally serious.

He shifted around and actually laid his head in her lap. Hell, he wasn't going to lean over. He would rather make himself comfortable. As you can see, Kai is not some shy kid. If he feels like doing something, he will very well do it. "Of course you may" He said, grinning. If there was anything he liked better then running his fingers through hair, it was other people running their fingers through his.
He realized if someone were to walk by they would probably find this situation quite akward for them. Ah well, maybe they would be lucky and no one would. Espeacially since Kai was feeling very happy, and content. He didn't want anything bursting his little bubble that was his world at this momment. He smiled up at her, "I like you Faith...your cool" he said matter of factly. He felt like a cat, he would probably start rubbing up against her like one soon too. It was just because of the way he was feeling at the momment, warm, happy, content. He swore to god he would start purring soon!
O.o.c// Heheh Cats...>xD[/size]

She laughed as he laid his head in her lap, and she started to run her fingers through his hair. "You're hair's so soft..." It wasn't quick movements, but rather slow, gentle movements. It was what her mother used to do to her when they would just sit up and talk, and it always calmed her down, made her feel content and just happy.
She smiled and said,"Thanks..." Her smile widened as she said,"I like you, too, Kai... You're really cool, and you're definitely not some jerk like most of the guys I know." She looked down into his green eyes. "And I like that." She smiled at him, still running her fingers through his hair.
{{xD Cats are funny little things...}}

"Really? Damn..and I was trying so hard to be a jerk" He said, then started laughing. His green eyes closed for a second, and a sigh seemed to leave him. He opened them again and looked up at Faith. She was pretty. Not in some model unearthly way. However in a unique, your never going to find another one like her way. A soft way. A smile came over his lips. His hand came up and carressed his fingers up her cheek. Then tugged her hair playfully.
Faith had been so nice to him. He felt like hugging her. However, she seemed even too innocent for hugging. So he watched her contently. His lips slightly parted as he breathed through his mouth. He was quite comfortable with his head in her lap and really didn't feel like moving. Espeacially with her running her fingers through his hair like that. God that felt good. [/size]
