Chapter 4

Out on my balcony I find myself currently
gliding my fingers across the keys as I get lost in the melody. Often times when feeling discouraged I found myself playing the piano.

Our attempt to run away today backfired.

Another dilemma was that I couldn't get Weems words out of my head about making friends instead of enemies. I never had friends other than Wednesday. It's difficult being an Addams when you find yourself being jealous of others who aren't alone. It's like my last name means I have to be cut off from the rest of the world while I stay in my dark bubble.

I have a dark secret and its that I have a secret collection of romance novels that no one knows about which I find myself enjoying. If I'm being truly honest I find myself wanting someone to love. Maybe deep down inside I do want to find someone like how my parents found each other. Yeah it's makes me want to stab myself in the eye watching them but they've never been ones to shy away there love for each other. So maybe I do want the same thing. Maybe I can make friends and find love without feeling so guilty of trying to leave the shadow that comes with being an Addams.

As the song comes to an end I wipe away the tears that have fallen down my cheeks. Feeling like I need to let everything out before I drown I walk to Wednesdays dorm.

"I want someone to love me!" I yell as I push open the door to Wednesday dorm.

Luckily Wednesdays in her room alone with Thing on her bed. They both look at me weird as they see tears falling from my face.

"I secretly have a collection of romance books that I enjoy. And I'm tired if hiding this side of me because I'm scared you or the rest of our family will be disappointed that I don't always want to be in your dark bubble." I say to her as she looks at me.

"Wednesday I understand you don't want to be like mother and I don't either but I want to find someone to love me the way our parents love each other and I don't want to feel bad for it. I'm tired of feeling alone and envious of people who have have friends. I'm not saying that I'm going to change everything about me because I like the way I am. I just want to express how I truly am without feeling scared. Your the only person who's opinion I care about."

She looking at me for awhile as I wipe my tears away. Thing is silent waiting for her reaction.

"I'm sure you've been holding this in for sometime and I'm glad you finally told me. I already knew about your secret stash of romance book behide your bookshelf at home." She finally says.

I look at her shocked "Why didn't you say anything?"

"Because when I found out I told mother and she told me that she didn't want you to hide something you enjoyed simply because you were afraid of what our family would say. Your the only person who's opinion I care about too and if you want different things than me it's okay. Plus Enid told me I suck at making people feel better so I want to be more understanding." She replies.

As soon as she's finished I walk to her and hug her. Her whole body stiffens as my hand wrap around her back but she soon hugs back.

"Your the best sister ever." I say into her shoulder.

"Okay that's enough affection today." She breaks our hug and sits on her bed.

I look down at Thing forgetting he was in the room.
He instantly tells me that he's proud of me and if any boys break my heart he'll punch them for me.

"Thanks Thing you better keep your promise cause I have a feeling by elysian mate will hate me."

Wednesday look up from her book.
