Rosie found herself in the library, and she almost gasped. She had never seen a library this huge in her life! The biggest she got was her book shelf in her mother's room, but it seemed like the possibilities of what these books would hold were endless. She skipped inside with a bright grin, immediately going to the first rows of shelves to see what was in store for her.
"Wow.." Rosie's jaw practically dropped when she traced her hand across the large amounts of books in the row. She didn't worry about having to be loud as she practically jogged down the aisle, her footsteps were quiet and tiny. The library seemed to trigger some excitement in Rosie once again, as she practically hopped around to the next row.
She slowed down her running as she approached the books, she reached in and took out a book about potions. Rosie already had one, and it seemed to be the same one. Since this caused Rosie to remember that, she put the book back and grabbed her bag, running to the table and hopping down into a chair.
Rosie opened her bag and pulled out her Potions book, opening it to the first page. It was eerily silent in the room, once again. But she wasn't a loser! She was gonna read a few pages without being creeped out anyway.

Creeping up into the archives was a boy called Evan Park. This boy was also astounded by the collection of books, all books he had never seen before, but he knew he'd spend some time in the future looking through them, they looked too important to dismiss. "That's good isn't it, then? A library, shoulda known there'd be one." He briefly nodded his head, turning to look down, looking at the line of tables and people engrossed into their respective books of wonders.
Evan had little interest in books, before today. However, today he just wanted to pick one out. He didn't know why this was, apart from the fact they all looked wonderful. Transfiguration, Potions, Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, the books were all there, and this surprised the boy. As obvious it would be to see different books for each subject in a school library, Evan hadn't expected it. The book he wanted to claim today was a book used for Charms.
Now he had to find it. He had supposed there was one, there was for every other subject. "Where's that book...?" Surely enough, he found it and stood with it in his hands, triumphantly. He didn't know why he was so excited to have a book in his hands, maybe it was the fact that the library was so beautiful. When he finally retrieved it, he went to walk to a table, that happened to be occupied by another student. He said a brief "Hey," to start a discussion.

It took Rosie a second to acknowledge the boy's existence, since she was deep into her book. She had a blank face on while she read, but when she tilted her head up to look at the new student, she grinned. "Hello!" She greeted, waving. Rosie met someone else! Meeting new people was one of Rosie's favorite things, because that meant new friendships and new experiences! Even if he didn't turn out being a friend, it was a lesson for her to avoid people like that in the future.
Rosie closed her book so she could put her full attention on the boy, her green eyes seemed to almost flash as she made eye contact. It was probably apparent that Rosie was an energetic little girl, which wasn't necessarily a bad thing, but she knew she could come on too strong sometimes, so Rosie tried to relax a bit, leaning back against the chair.
Other than the two, the library was quiet. Peaceful. Rosie was almost thankful the boy ruined the silence, it was inevitably freaking her out to be in a such big, silent, space for so long. But, all was well. Because Rosie was no longer alone with her books.

”Holy balls!”
The girl cried, her mouth agape and eyes as wide as dinner plates. Suddenly realizing that yes, this was a library, and library etiquette called for little to no noise, she clenched her jaw shut and silently apologized to the library gods for her behavior.
She had come to the library in search of any books that might help her in her quest to finding all there is to know about Potions, her favorite subject.
Making her way to the section labeled “P.” She scanned the spines of the various books both thick and thin, for what she was looking for.
”Prestigious Potions..Polyjuice and it’s Effects..Aha!”
Clarisse gripped the worn leather cover of a book titled “Potions Encyclopedia.” This was surely what would help her the most.
Making her way to the tables, she spotted two students near an oak table, and made her way to it, sitting down across from a girl with a silent smile. As much as she wanted to spark up a rousing conversation about Potions, as the girl was reading a Potions book as well, she refrained, not wanting to anger the library gods as much as she already had with her entrance only a few moments before.

Evan scavenged the shelves, with no mercy. He was here to collect, here to find and here to discover. Of course, these were exaggerated terms he used to tell himself that he was in need of a new book. To be a specific, a Transfiguration book. Transfiguration was his second favorite subject, and he felt he didn't have enough on it to perform well later on. He was sure if he didn't good if he didn't perform in subjects, forget them being his favorite, it would be a curse until the ends of his days, a curse he had declined on many occasions. Of course, if he didn't do the best at Transfiguration but outperformed the rest, that'd be great, but it would also be highly unlikely.
He had found a book, but it was for Herbology and not Transfiguration. He found the book interesting and decided to take it anyways, it could help in the future, and would help when it came to studying. The more books to do it from he had, the better. Now to find a Transfiguration book, which was actually fairly hard to find a reasonable one, but after a few minutes of searching, he found one of his liking. Smiling to himself, he walked to the exit with his two books in his bag and simply left, leaving no signs that he was even there.
