Although she refused to admit it to herself, she was looking forward to working with Dominic. The library was full today, filled with the students the centaur had also given the assignment. Fiona heaved a sigh of relief when she finally found an empty desk, after many minutes of pacing the crowded floor. Dropping her bag in the opposite seat to prevent someone from taking it, She intertwined her fingers and waited.
Hours passed, but Dominic didn't show.
