Oh my....(Pan)

[Bell Connelly]

As if there was any doubt Bell was naturally at the library…..

….Naturally….

Where else would Bell be on a friday evening, where anyone else was no doubt doing something fun or exciting.Answer:In the middle of a world of literature just totally indulging in it in everywhere she possibly could. She was practically on first name terms with the staff there and you can imagine how Bell might be keeping in shape. She doesn’t need to go to a gym, she just piled up books upon books on her arms and she would always keep in shape.

That being said however, she was sturggling to keep the books under arm steady as she exited the library clad in her homemade sweater and glasses she must have looked quite a sight

Pan was whistling cheerfully as she walked through the town. Luckily, unlike her singing the tune did not cause any help or harm to those around her. It was actually quite uplifting every once in a while.

Her strides were stopped mid-step when she almost walked into a woman exiting the library, weighed under by a very large collection of books. "Whoa there, you trying to steal the whole library?" She asked with a cheerful laugh, stepping around the burdened woman. Without asking permission she plucked a few books away from the woman, willingly sharing her load. The best way to make a new friend was to offer help. "Mind if I carry these? You look like you could use the extra hand....or five."

Well, this would mark the fifth-no wait...sixth time she managed to almost fall down in the middle of the street….This month, you know in hindsight when you’re not paying attention to where you’re walking and your head is up in the clouds themselves, thankfully she put on the breaks relatively quickly and stopped not fast enough to avoid the collision but fast enough to lessen the impact of the blow, she tottered a little and for a moment she was afraid that she might fall in top of the woman, but thankfully she managed to regain her balance just in time.

“Oh, I’m terribly sorry” she smiled nervously noting how beautiful the woman was and not to mention her thick Australia accent, she spent a summer there in her teens and she honestly didn’t want to leave… She laughed a little once Pan made the comment “Maybe just half” before she smiled politely once her books was taken off her she shoved the remainder under her arm “Oh you’re very sweet. I can take them off you again if they’re too heavy for you...Oh I’m Bell by the way

Pan smiled as she juggled the books until they sat comfortably in her grasp. She'd noticed the beauty of the woman she had approached of course, it had been one of the motivating factors for her involvement. Particularly her red hair. She loved red hair, which explained why she had dyed her own a deep shade of blood-copper.

"Oh, don't apologize. I love to help," she exclaimed, lifting the cover of one of the books curiously. Most of her reading came in the form of song lyrics or children's stories, she rarely had time to sit back with a book and relax. With that logic, it appeared the lovely woman had a great deal of time on her hands. Pan could definitely help her with that.

"My name is Pan," she replied. "Where are we heading now?" If Bell had been capable of carrying all of the books, she could surely manage half of them. "So 'Bell' like Beauty and the Beast or 'Bell' like Notre Dame?"

Ah, well there’s certainly seemed to be a reason why Bell was as thin as she was and it had nothing to do with actually going to the gym. It was all just so noisy and compact to her for that kind of thing. So her exercise of choice? Carrying as many leather bound books as her small arms could possibly carry. It was something she had done since as long as you could walk so you can say she was an expert,

but regardless she was greatly appreciative of the woman’s kindness. She found if you put your faith in the natural kindness of most people it’ll pay dividends in the end. And she was glad to see that still held true as she walked along with the tall woman

“It’s a pleasure to meet you. That’s a very unique name” Bell couldn’t help but nod in approval of course enjoying the literal reference “And were just going to my apartment up the street….Don’t worry I wouldn’t have you carry all those books for me a few miles over” She said with a little giggle “Bell as in notre dame,and please refrain from any comments about ringing me...trust me, I heard them all before” She said rolling her eyes “Pan...Pan...I know that name….Did you go to Bellefonte?”
