He would much rather be actually immersed in the experience of learning a spell, than reading through a book. Well it wasn't even the reading that was boring, it was just the shopping that was. Why go shopping when you can hang out with friends, right?

Either way, that still did nothing to diminish the fact that he had a ton of books to buy from the store. But where to begin was the true question...

Now this was Daehyun's definition of heaven.

Though he looked fairly composed on the outside, his inner perfectionist screamed in delight at the beautifully arranged books on the shelves sagging under their weight. And the smell. The smell of new and old books, it was the best thing. With eyes widened in wonder, he strolled all around the shelves on the first floor, where he'd soon figured out the textbooks were, and piled more books in his arms that he could safely carry.

It was only when he walked backwards from one of the shelves - couldn't possibly turn his back on those beauties, and also he thought he was alone, as the bookshop was eerily quiet - that he backed into something, no wait, someone, and fell to the floor, the tall pile toppling over, one of them hitting him square in the face, too. He prayed it wouldn't leave a mark.

"I-I'm-I'm sorry-" Words pretty much died in his throat when he remembered he'd walked into a boy.
