Chapter 154 Sarah

• The library's different in the evening. The electric lights are on, but only in some sections, making the floors a patchwork of yellow light and dark shadows. The desks that line the walls are filled with night owl students, headphones in and fingers rattling over their keyboards, and the stacks are kind of creepy. Like rows of book-filled dark alleys.
• Our table isn't free. I stand nearby, blinking stupidly at the two girls sitting in our seats. Their seats. They've spread open textbooks over the desk, and they're huddled together, making notes and popping the cap on and off bright pink highlighters.
• "Come on." For once, I didn't hear Ki coming. There's no warning–just the honey rumble of his voice in my ear, and his gentle grip on my elbow. "Leave the nice students alone. There are other tables."
