The Central city public library was open to everyone. Sometimes Mark wished it wasn't. So many people put stuff out of place no matter how many times he and his co-workers had put up signs asking people not to re-shelve books they had taken book to leaf through.

The tall man stopped to rub his forehead. He had a headache again. They had been coming and going since sometime after Christmas. It was nearly April. He had no idea what to do about it. He had no one to really talk to about it. But Mark decided he wasn't going to dwell.

Not when there was a book to rescue from getting ruined! He strides forward with every intention of saving it from falling down onto some girl's head.

Mark chuckles softly. Then gives very calming looks to the people glaring at the teenager. The tall skinny man offers her a faint smile.

"Can I help you find anything?" It is obvious by the clean cut clothing and the name tag that he works here.

Iris beamed at him. "Actually, yes you can!" she said, in a tone that maybe wasn't entirely library appropriate. She then blushed, and lowered her voice to a near whisper. "I'm looking for the last book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series...The Last Olympians. Do you maybe have it? Please."

He let both eye brows go up until she quieted back down. He ended up smiling a great deal more when she went into a super library voice. Good kid. Just easily excited.

"You're just in luck. It just went back on the shelf a few hours ago. If you would follow me."

He doesn't wait. Already he is walking towards where the book is. His foot steps on the rugged floor are soft and not easily heard.

"Awesome!" Ooops. She didn't MEAN for that little outburst, honestly, she didn't! Iris followed behind him, just as silently, trying not to disturb anyone around her.

He is trying to not chuckle too loudly. But it still comes out just under his breath as they arrive at the right shelf.

"Here we go, Miss."

Iris bit her lip to keep herself from squealing. "Thank you!"

"It's no problem," he informs her with a small nod. He was just happy more people were reading because of books like this.
