Gun regularly gets notes left for him in one of his favorite books in the school library. He still responds, knowing he shouldn't be writing in school property.

Chapter 1: intro

Chapter Text

His daily break in the school library was hands down, Gun's favorite time of the day. Often going during his lunch break, waking up early before first period, even going home late just to visit once more. Now, Gun is FAR from being labelled as a 'nerd'. Sitting in the back of the class goofing off and barely passing through his assignments. 

All of his friends are pretty much the same, hardly getting by but still trying to make the most of their high-school years. Back to the pressing question at hand, what is the reason he's so obsessed with going to the library, if not to study?

Dinosaurs. yup, dinosaurs.

Gun's been obsessed with dinosaurs ever since he can remember, always having a dino plushy or toy at his side (he stills keeps them in his room, much to his embarrassment). There's not really a particular reason as to why he likes dinosaurs, just the cute look of the dolls is what keeps him going. 

The librarian has noticed Gun only ever reading dinosaur books whenever he comes in, she eventually started to drop a handful of books at the table he usually sits in. Only ever saying,"These are new in our stock."

He does venture out and read some of them but always returns to this one book. It would seem like a nursery type of book you'd read to small kids, judging from the cover. Seeing the thickness of the book would immediately change your mind. Gun has read this book 5 times in the last 3 years of high-school. It might not seem like a lot, but for someone who doesn't read it's pretty impressive.

He's flipping through the pages swiftly, trying to remember which one he left off on the last time he was rushed to class, finally stopping at page 102. Gun furrows his brows, noticing a sentence inked in pen directly underneath the 10th sentence of the page. 

"I hope this doesn't sound really creepy but your new hairstyle looked really nice!"

oh, right!

He had gotten a bit of a haircut recently due to the longer strands of his hair always getting into his eyes. A faint smile makes it's way to his face as not many people had complimented him on the cut (besides Por). 

Gun knows writing on school property is bad, especially if it's in a library book, but it should be okay if he doesn't get caught right?

Glancing around the room, trying his best not to look suspicious as he covers the book with his arm writing a response. 

"who even are you..?"

He doesn't even know if this message was for him specifically but it had to be seeing as he hasn't seen anyone else take interest in this book. Overhearing others call it "childish" before putting it back on the shelf. 

Usually when walking out of the library his only other thoughts would consist of the music club, what he's going to eat later and dinosaurs. That seems to change when the only thing he can think of is if he'll get a response or not.
