Answer 2

Angelica was walking through the empty library, her flowered black skirt flowing behind her as she walks. Her long black hair done up in a pony tail and a flower crown, it shining on the sun which shines through the window of the library. Her feet prance her along gently, her toe making tip toe like motions, and then she has a bound in her step. The walk of a ballerina.

Daniel walks on the opposite aisle, keeping his head low, causing his dark black hair to slump to the side. His black jacket is wrapped around him and his grey shorts rumple as he squats down to look at a book. He can tell there is someone on the other side and he figures it is Mrs. Jackson, the librarian.

Daniel and Angelica both draw near each other, both of them getting close to a certain book. Daniel is about to grab it when a hand reaches to his, bumping his hand which causes him to recoil from the woman's touch. And there it is, their hands met reaching for the same book.
They both smile at each other, Angelica walking over to the other aisle to come apologize for the mix up, seeing Daniel's discomfort.

"Hello there love, I'm really sorry about the mishap," She apologizes as she smiles at the boy, her Southern Accent intriguing him to continue the conversation.

"It's fin..fine You just startled me a bit," He explains, scratching the back of his neck as his foot taps gently. She looks at him, tilting her head which causes her pony tail to sway to the side.

"You sure you okay dallin?" She smiles, actually saying darling like dallin. She puts an arm around him and he recoils again.

"I uh don't like being touched," He force smiles, shrugging away from her a bit. "If you want, you can have the book," He offers kindly, still seeing her worried expression .

"How about, you take and my number, and when you're done with it you can call me," She suggests as she smiles
