Ming's POV

I went straight to the part of the library where I always go whenever I want to study quietly or sleep. Few people are going in the area because maybe the books weren't interesting enough for them. Or I don't know.

I would have to agree with them though. If it isn't necessary, I wouldn't read newspapers printed centuries ago.

As I was approaching,  I could hear a light snore. It was more audible as I get nearer.

Then I saw a man, at end of the aisle in-between two huge bookshelves. He was sleeping soundly cause he seemed to be unaware of my presence. He was sitting on the floor, his back leaning on the shelves. His hand on his lap holding a book. If he wasn't snoring,  I would have thought that he was just reading because his face was facing the book.

Initially,  I thought of leaving because it would be futile to stay when someone already took my place. Wow, my place? I asked myself and grinned.

But my feet seemed to have a mind of its own and continued to walk towards the man.

He's cute. It isn't every day that I find a man,  cute or give any comment for that matter. I couldn't help but be curious.

Who is he? I wondered. He's probably not an engineering student or else I would have seen him before.

The guy smiled in his sleep so I saw his dimples. I felt the urged to touched it but I restrained myself.

I noticed that the sun rays is directly hitting him through the glass window.
I felt bad for him so I stood by the window to protect him.

Why am I doing this? I didn't even know him. He just ignored his thoughts and continued to watch him in his slumber.

After seemed like an hour,  I heard footsteps approaching. There are group of girls coming their way. I am afraid that they will wake him up so I stood up and meet them halfway.

"Hi,  Ming." they said in sync and giggled.

"Hello, " I smiled at them.

"What are you doing here?" ask the girl with a long hair. She is familiar but I forgot her name.

"Ahm.." he didn't know what to say. "What about you? What are girls as pretty as you doing here? " for lack of words I returned the question.

Hearing "pretty" made them giggled all the more.

"We were just looking for a book,  I didn't know I would find my moon here. " I could sense that she's trying to flirting.

"Are you alone? You should have called me. " she gave her sweetest smile while her hands were touching his shoulder.

"Well,  I thought beautiful girls like you have no time for a guy like me. " I flirted back. It's like a reflex to flirt back.

"Even if I am busy,  I will always make time for you. " she winked at me and laughed a little louder.

In my peripheral vision,  I saw the man sleeping moved.

Kit's POV

When I reached the library, I tried to look around to find a table where I can stay to kill time. But to my dismay,  every seats were taken. So I just went on the bookshelves area.

Luckily, I was able to go to the farthest part of the library where I saw no one but me.

Perfect. Nap time.

I grinned at the idea. I sat at the end part of the last aisle, in-between two ginormous bookshelves.  I never thought our university library was this huge. I opened my lectures and tried to read. Before I knew it,  I drifted off.

I was awaken by a sound of laughter. It was close but I was very sleepy to pay attention. I thought that they won't see me anyway. The conversation went on, he heard the girl muttering something like she was flirting then the guy flirted back.

Of all places,  why do it in the library? He ranted. Argh!

He was determined to ignore it when his phone suddenly vibrated.

"Hmmm? " the sound I was able to make because I was too lazy to speak.

"Where are you? " Beam asked. "The class will start soon. " he said anxiously.

Yeah,  I forgot.  I still have a class.  "I'm coming. " I answered. I gathered my things hurriedly and stood up.

I was surprised to see that the two people whom I overheard earlier were just nearby.  They were looking at me,  the girl with an blank expression and the guy.. amused? Well, I don't have the time to process it. So I moved quickly to make it on time for my class.

As I walked past him,  I could feel his gaze.  I looked at him and I saw him looking at me. He seemed stunned to see me looking back at him but he winked at me after a few seconds.

"So are you free tonight?  I can come over, if you want. " I heard the girl asked.

"I'd love to.. " he answered. I grimaced at his response. Then carried on to walk towards the door.

Flirt. Flirt. Flirt.

Ming's POV

His reaction was priceless when he saw me winking at him. I usually get a smile whenever I winked at someone but with him, he thought that it was gross. Well,  he's a man after all. I couldn't help but followed him with a glance. He was half running and half walking. 

What department is he from? He doesnt look like someone from engineering department. Hmmm.

"So are you free tonight?  I can come over, if you want. " I heard the woman next to me said seductively.

"I'd love to.." I smiled sweetly at her. "But I have plans." I excused myself after.

I was heading out when I noticed something on the floor. It was an ID. I picked it up so I can give it to the librarian maybe the person who left it will come back and look for it.

I look at the picture. It was him.

I smiled.
