Chapter 135: Moments That Should Last Forever
"Wiliam!" I gasped, holding onto him tightly. I heard him chuckle.
"It is not funny!" I wrapped my arms around his waist.
"Relax Ava... you won’t fall I won’t let you, you’re safe with me"
I didn’t listen, squeezing my eyes shut and hoping this will end quickly, I’m not a fan of height. His hand firm on my waist caused me to open my eyes and met with him scanning through the top shelves with his hand.
I didn’t focus on the height anymore but instead, I focused my eyes on him, watching as his brow formed into a serious action as he searched for the manuscript.
A smile found lips, I could watch him all day, every day, and forever, as long as I got to gaze upon his handsome features and his wonderful silver hair I loved to run my hands through.
After he took what he needed, he suggested we explore the top of the shelves closer to the ceiling that showed the night skies. I disagreed at first but he assured me nothing will happen. So I trusted his words as the platform moved and I got to see parts of the library I haven’t seen before from this height.
And it was extremely breathtaking... the wonders this library held never ceases to amaze me, it was even bigger in this angle, the shelves spawn for miles and I wonder how he single handedly monitored all knowledge and catalogs. William is an amazing man.
We didn’t take too long and we were back to the ground. I sighed in relief, there was no way I was going on a trip to the top shelves ever again, no matter how convincing he will sound next time. I admit it was a wonderful experience, but my anxiety all through didn’t help.
William watches me with a smile on his lips, leaning his back against the shelf and opening the book he took.
"You’re still shaking"
