.

The library floor had doors which losed itself on a certain time. The purpose was always to keep the confidantial books safe. Without the management room, nothing was capable of opening it.

Emma had to stay late in the library room. She was studying attentively. The whole floor was empty except for her.

Lora and Leo quietly approached and kept eyes on Emma. There were waiting for the moment she'll walk back down. Lora whispered to the other one, "Get inside the room!"

Leo was shocked to hear it.

If the door closes down, no one until tomorrow can open it.

he started shaking and whines,

"what are you trying to do!

if i get stuck, im gonna starve to death until morning"

Lora smacks her hand in her head.

she tried to explain,

"im gonna push Emma in the room at the exact time of the closing door.

you need to pretend like, it was an accident for you too.

if you spend a whole day with her in the room, maybe she'll start liking you."

Leo, "you want me to be stuck in the room for a whole day!"

Lora, "calm down.

do it for Emma.

you like her. dont you?"

Leo's expression changed as if he is confused, "yea...i do"

Lora, "then...get in"

Their conversation ends.

Leo quietly enters the room and hides in a corner.

Emma was  in the room beside Him.

After a while.

The bell rings as a signal of closing the doors.

Emma quickly picks up her bag and leaves the room.

outside, Lora was hiding to push Emma .

As soon as she came out,

Lora reached her hand to push her.

Too bad, Emma already noticed.

she turns around, "Flora...?"

Flora tries to act normal as if nothing happened, "hi...i was looking for a book."

Emma, "the doors are about to close.

you can visit tomorrow."

Lora, "yeah....sure"

Emma walks away, Lora tries to stop her.

suddenly she slips and falls down inside a room.

THE DOOR CLOSES DOWN.

Lora got up and starts panicking.

she starts slamming  and shouting to open the door.

TOO late, emma has already left.

and half of the building was empty.

the situation was like,

what she tried to do with someone else, happens with her instead.

❤{Stuck in a room for a day}❤

"what am i gonna do now....

poor Leo...he's stuck in the other room...alone

it's all my fault.

i should have never made this stupid plan...."

Even when she knew nothing can open the door, she kept trying.

the motive changed after a while.

now, she's trying to make sound so that Leo who's stuck in the room can hear.

she kept shouting,

"can you hear me!!"

Suddenly a voice came from behind her, "yes i can"

Lora got scared to death.

She turned around and found Leo.

sitting in the chair with his legs crossed.

"HOW!!

you were supposed to be in the other room!"

-"you never told me which one.

i found this ...small enough..."

Lora fell on her knees.

covering her face,

"everything is messed up....

im sorry...."

Even comforts were useless.

cause the reality was that,

both of them are stuck in the room for a whole day.

-can you move...?

i wanna try opening the door

-are you stupid?

its useless.

-there has to be something.

a phone?

-whole school's empty.

whom are you gonna call?

-Aspen!

Leo kept trying to call her but the network was weak as jelly.

"no network...."

Lora starts crying .

Leo, "stop crying.

it hasn't even started yet.

how are you gonna spend the night.

imagine how emma would have felt....now you're in her place."

Lora kept mumbling,"im sorry...."

Leo found some tools and tries to open the glass windows.

Ora,"are you gonna pay for it later?"

-we're badly stuck.

they want us to pay!

Few hours passed,

the sunset was clearly visible from the window.

everything started getting dark.

Leo, "i wonder if they have any torch here..."

Ora, "im hungry...."

Leo, "have you thought about me before making this plan....?"

"im sorry....."

After a few hours,

everywhere they could see was dark

Leo, "my phone's about to die.

where's yours?"

ora, "i left it in my locker....sorry"

-its annoying.

stop saying it already.

-you think..Aspen would look for us?

-ill try to look for network.

Leo walks a few steps far away .

Lora was sitting down, Leaning against a wall beside the window.

she was staring at the stars.

suddenly, a cold wind enters the room.

she tried to move away,  but there was no more space.

she starts getting chills.

with a trembling voice, "it's....cold"

the window was half stuck-opened.

since no one thought that, students can get stuck in the rooms, nothing was repaired.

the room was only used for keeping boxes ,which actually filled the whole place.

other ones may have phone and ways connect but the room they  chose, was almost a warehouse.

After trying for a long time,

He finally gave up and sat beside her

"it's....cold.

i wish not to die today....

i dont wanna die...", Ora kept mumbling with her eyes closed.

Leo stared at her. suddenly, he breaks in to a smile.

he reached his hand and moves away few hairs from her face.

"i really regret it...",

Lora stared at him.

Leo, "if you really do...then...pay for my meal tomorrow."

Ora moves away her eyes, "fine..."

she kept sliding hands in the arms.

Leo noticed.

he took off his jacket and puts it around Lora.

Lora, "what are you doing!"

Leo, "you'll get cold.

sit quietly.

one more sorry from your mouth and ill take it back"

Lora felt quiet warm so she hesitated to give it back.

turns her head around and stares at the stars.

"hope ill sleep before my DM starts.."

Leo, "Dm?"

Lora nods. "you wont understand even if i tell you...so..."

-what's Dm? direct massage?

-no!

it's....a mood...

-"…"

-it means...almost feeling like a drunk person...when you force yourself not to sleep.

you wont remember anything you do.

-so...is it like....being drunk?

-see...you wont understand...

Lora stares at the stars and spoke carelessly,

"I'll save her

no matter what happens."

-save who?

-Astrid!.....she's up there right?

it didnt take him long to realise that Lora already entered in the DM.

Leo pats her head, "she'll come back soon.

dont worry"

suddenly, Lora puts her head in Leo's shoulder

and fell asleep.

starts sleep talking , "i'll save her..."

Leo didnt seem bothered with her leaning.

he quietly smiles and stares at her, "only you can do that...."

Next day,

The sun shines straightly at their faces.

as soon as the light got stronger,

Leo woke up and covered face with his hand.

trying to keep his eye open, he saw Lora leaning on him.

realising how they ended up there,

he smiles.

suddenly, the door makes a beep sound. the sound meant it's open now.

he tried to wake Lora up.

gently patting her head, "wake up..."

accidently, their hand touched.

He felt warmth.

putting the back side of his hand in Loras forehead, he realised that she has a strong fever.

quickly carries her and runs outside the room.

He reached the nurse room.

It was hours before any start of the classes. students barely appears before 1 hour.

the whole school and the halls were empty.

Leo laid her down on the bed.

Lora didnt seem to wake up due to the fever.

after a few moment, Aspen came running after his call.

, "you both were stuck last night?!?"

Leo, "long story....i'll tell you later.

what are we gonna do now?"

Aspen checked Floras tempareture.

"high fever....I'll take her to my house.

you should go home and rest too"

Leo, "i'll drop you home..let's go."

When they reached Aspens house,

Leo carries Ora to the room.

Aspen, "i'll leave for school in a noment...

it'll be better if both of you skip school and take some rest."

Leos condition was worse than it seemed. he started having back pain. quietly sits down.

Aspen noticed, "why dont you stay over too?

you look tired.

i'll show you my brothers room.

he's out of town

you can stay there."

He nodded.

An hour later, Aspen quietly leaves for school.

Lora hasn't woke up yet. she was deep in sleep.

Leo stayed at the room downstairs.

after resting for half an hour,

he came upstairs.

Entered the room , he stared at Lora

gently sat beside her and started looking at Aspens books.

In the other way,

Lora started having visions.

The visions appeared in her eyes with slow pain.

She saw,

Leo and herself beside a river.

their cloths were different from present.

Leos seemed like a prince.

beside the river, Lora was splashing water. both of them looking happy.

leo stared at her and asked,

"have i seen you before?"

Lora looked back at him.

Suddenly, the vision changed.

Everything turned dark as night.

The same dream as before.

but this time, the faces were clear as crystal.

she could tell who they are .

Lora was the girl falling of the cliff.

Leo was the guy who, lets go of her hand.

there was a strange and evil faced girl standing behind Leo.

The illusion of falling off, woke her up

In real life, she quickly woke up and started taking deep breaths.

Leo was sitting beside her.

he quickly approaches her,

"what happened", he kept asking.

Ora stared at him for a while without answering. she thought to herself,

"what did i saw....why's he there?

what connection do we have..."

Leo got the point quickly that , asking her wont help. he quiets down and smiles at her, "you should rest."

-where's Aspen?

~she's at school.

-how did we end up here...

i wanna go home...

~mm...you might need Aspens permission.

He checks her temparature.

the expression changed.

with a worried face, "i'll be back"

Lora, "he's the one who threw me off the cliff...

i thought, emma and Leo is suppose to be together...then why me?"

Leo entered with a wet cloth in his hand.

He sits beside Ora.

Gently puts the cloth in her for forhead.

Ora, "what are you doing...?"

Leo replied, "you have a high fever.

lay down like this for a while

ill stay here.

....if you need anything...just tell me"

Ora, "i wanna talk to Aspen"

Leo, "i'll try calling then"

he stood beside the window and tries to call Aspen.

Ora suddenly felt dizzy.

all of sudden, a unbearable stomach pain hits her.

in the same place, where she was stabbed in the dreams.

She tightly holds on to her stomach.

but the pain got stonger.

with a suffering voice, she screams.

Leo quickly looks back and ran toward her.

Lora holds his tightly,

"don't leave me"

Leo couldnt understand what was happening. he still sat beside her,

"im here. dont worry. i wont leave"

A few hours passed.

the sun was about to set.

Aspen was on the way to her house.

Suddenly, she felt dizzy and fell unconscious on the ground.
