Laurel was busily reshelving books when she first saw him. Alesandr had his head buried in a book and did not see Laurel as she moved her cart into his path, causing him to run into it. Alesandr apologized for his lack of attention to where he was going. Laurel smiled at him and gracefully accepted his apology, then watched him as he continued his stroll, his head again buried in his book, towards the reading room. Laurel was attracted to this quiet man and after finishing her work; she went to the reading room to watch him. She bit her lip with each page turn as he continued reading his book and wondered if he had noticed her watching him. As it neared closing time, Laurel began collecting the books that had been left in the reading room. Alesandr finished his book and brought it over to her just a few minutes before the chimes were sounded, and then left the room. Laurel examined the book. He had been reading a romantic novel; she opened the book to a page that he had marked with a strip of paper.
“Cedric approached the lady with great trepidation. He had never been so close to one so fair and feared that he might cause her affright. Elaine had never before seen such a handsome man within her kingdom. She allowed his approach, but she averted her eyes so that she did not seem forward. He extended his hand and begged of her ‘Milady, if it pleases you.’ He took her hand and kissed it gently. ‘It pleases me greatly, Sir.’ She blushed and he took her in his arms and kissed her passionately. ‘I am your prince, Milady.’ Cedric boldly declared, ‘and you shall be my princess. Our fathers were wise to arrange this marriage for us.’ Elaine nodded her head in agreement.” Laurel placed it on the cart with the rest of the books from the reading room and went about her work reshelving them.
TUESDAY
Laurel hovered around the library's entrance, looking for her "quiet romantic". She was straightening magazines when he came in. She watched him as he started up the stairs to the far stacks where the Fiction books were shelved. She quickly finished the stack of magazines that she was working on and followed him up the stairs. Laurel pretended to be searching the stack for a book while she spied on him. She followed him to the reading room and watched him take a seat. She hurried back downstairs and finished working on the magazines. She then went back upstairs to the reading room to check on him. After every task she would repeat her check on him to see how he was and if he was still there. She was relieved when her final task was the reading room and couldn't get there fast enough. Laurel began her task of straightening the room immediately and was very prompt at retrieving abandoned books as soon as people left them. Some people were even considerate enough to bring the books to her when they were done with them. She politely thanked them for their effort and soon found herself alone with her romantic reader. Laurel straightened all the chairs at the tables and rearranged the newspapers and magazines. She organized all the books on her cart so that the reshelving would go quickly. Laurel began to feel nervous and did not want this man to see her become anxious in his presence. She left the room with the cart and began to reshelf the books on it.
Alesandr smiled as the librarian left the room. He had been trying to get her attention for days and knew that he had succeeded when she deliberately ran her cart into him. He waited until he was certain she was finished shelving and then walked downstairs. He met her as she came off the elevator and then handed her the book, smiling as he did, and then headed out the exit. Laurel held on to the book for a while feeling its warmth. She held it up to her nose hoping to catch his scent. She left the cart at the bottom of the elevator and stepped back into the car. Riding it back to the second floor, she felt a wave of passion overtake her. Laurel sat for a while reading the book before she reshelved it because he had marked a passage with a piece of paper. It was a modern collection of erotic short stories and he had chosen a rather passionate moment.
"John tore off Marsha's blouse revealing her milky white bosom. He kissed each silky mound enveloping its pinnacle with a passionate kiss. Marsha moaned softly as John massaged each mound. She reached downwards and clasping his face, she drew him upward into a deep passionate kiss. John's passion rose revealing itself to the now writhing Marsha. “Take me”, she begged of her impassioned lover. John stripped her of every last shred of her clothing and drove his passion stick deep within her well of desire. Grand explosions of pleasure accompanied their passion dance until John and Marsha finally collapsed from exhaustion." Reading the passage only served to wet Laurel's appetite, and she began to fantasize about seducing Alesandr in the library. Alesandr sat in his car wondering if the librarian had read the passage he had marked or merely reshelved the book. He thought of her sitting in the library reading the passage, her nipples becoming erect and the space between her legs soaked with her desire for him. He smiled at the thought of the librarian sitting there in the stacks giving pleasure to her self, because of something he had done.
