Christopher stood stock still, his head to one side, trying to listen if Celeste had in fact gone to the front door. As soon as he heard the door open and shut he quickly walked (he didn't run, he walked quickly! He saw no reason to run unless you were being chased and even then he could usually avoid it. He hated cardio.) He took the slightly longer rote to the upstairs library in order to avoid Nadia that was on her way to the kitchen. He knows he should stop actively avoiding her. She had been trying to help him, he knows that, but still. He had been keeping an eye on her movements in order to avoid her, something he was REALLY good at, was avoiding people, but she was sure to start noticing and he didn't want to be rude. ................. He would stop tomorrow. As for now, he was taking the long way around so their paths would not cross.<br/><br/>By the time he finally got to the library he was just in time to see Rhen take off on her bike. He quickly looked around to see if Celeste had been in time to stop the stranger. He spotted them right away, standing near the gate, he moved slightly so he could get a better look. He was curious, he had been seeing glimpses of the mans' travel here all day and he wanted to know why. Perhaps he should go say hello. But he would wait for him to actually come in first.
