'' Is this... Love? ''

Annoying.

|*| TW: OLD SELF-HARM SCARS. |*|

Wednesday's pov:

I stop pressing the keys on my typewriter as I hear my mother call my name. I quickly stand up, rip the page off of the typewriter's grip and place it in my box signed by my initials in the middle, aligning it with the rest of the stacked papers. I close it and put it into the rest of my luggage, along with the typewriter. Lurch comes into my room and carries the luggage to the car, meanwhile I go outside.

I ignore my parents and slide into the car, knowing I'll say my goodbyes later. The car starts and the rest of my family step in. We begin the long drive to Nevermore. I start to think about it. About Nevermore. I start thinking about Tyler, the battle and. Enid? I thought about Enid, her scars, and that ear-bleeding pop song that always reminds me of the vibrant girl and her vibrant color pallet. I start feeling something in my stomach. A light squirm? What is this?..

We drove through the school's gates, and Lurch slowed down and stopped the car, My family and I stepped out.''Oh, Nevermore, the memories are floating back to me.'' My mother spoke as my father agreed, pulling her into a kiss. I feel myself throw up inside of my mouth at the sight and turn to Pugsley, who looks upset.
''Stop showing emotion, it makes you weak,'' I say to my dear brother.
''I'll miss you too.'' Pugsley replies.
''Alright, my little storm cloud. Oh, how we'll miss you! Lurch already put your luggage near the dorm so you better get going. Goodbye, my little death trap.''
My father spoke in gratitude. I nod at my parents, slowly padding off to my dorm.

I let Lurch go and pull my luggage inside my room just to be greeted by my former roommate, Enid.  
''Hiya, roomie! '' She swiftly came to me and said, the biggest smile on her face. I was taken aback by her vibrant colors but was strangely glad to see her.
'' Hello, Enid.''
I replied sternly, smiling a bit at the sight of my friend.

Enid pulls her arms out for a hug, slowly walking towards me.
''Enid. No.' I say in an annoyed tone, slowly backing away from her.
''Come on, Wednesday!' She whined, walking toward me.
'ENID. NO.' I reply harshly, walking back even further. Enid quickens her pace and eventually catches me in a hug. She pulls away, staring down at my grumpy face.
''I will gauge your eyes out.'' I threaten the living rainbow, staring into my void-filled eyes.
'' No, you won't'' Enid turns around and starts walking towards her bed, proudly.
''I'm gonna test that theory.'' I say in a monotone voice, before starting to unpack my luggage, too.

Enid's POV:

We're done unpacking and are now sitting in our beds. I'm looking at my phone but keep glancing into Wednesday's eyes, I don't know why, though. It's like my body wants to. I just can't look away from her beautiful, dark, and gloomy eyes. I sink into them like I know what's on her mind.
''Enid?'' Wednesday caught my attention as I had stared at her for too long.
''Ah, hm?'' I hum in reply, acting as if nothing happened.
'' Are you okay?''
''Yes, I'm fine,'' I reply sternly, a weak smile appears on my face.
Wednesday nods and goes back to whatever she was doing. I'm not sure what it is though. I keep finding myself staring into her eyes all the time, and when I look at her I feel something. It can't be butterflies, right?

|°| A time skip of two weeks. |°|

|•| Wednesday's POV. |•|

The time was 8:30 PM, it was late and both girls were in their beds, just exchanging conversations.
''Alright, I'm gonna go shower.'' I said, before standing up and going through my wardrobe to find my black pajamas. I carry them into the bathroom and lock my door, hanging the clothes onto the dryer, as I have nowhere else to put them. I take my clothes off and stare into the mirror at my naked, exposed body.  I'll admit, I don't love my body, nor do I hate it. It's just a neutral opinion. I glance at my hands, revealing old self-harm scars. The lines on my wrist cause me to remember everything. I look over at my clothes just to avoid looking at my hands, it makes me feel sad, as much as I look like I'm dead inside, with no feelings and all, I'm a human too. I step into the shower and take care of myself, massaging my head with shampoo and rinsing it after.

|°| Time skip. After her shower. |°|
    |•| No one's POV. |•|
Wednesday steps out of the shower with her wet, long hair down.
Enid's jaw dropped at the sight of her friend with her hair down.
Enid: '' Wednesday you look beautiful with your hair down!'' the girl managed to spit out.
Wednesday: ''Ah- Thank you, Enid.'' The void-eyed girl replied, hiding a small blush. No way. Did Wednesday Addams just hide a blush? The Wednesday Addams? No way.
Enid: '' Wednesday... Did you just hide a blush?!'' Enid said out loud.
Wednesday: '' N-No! You're just delusional...'' The black-haired girl stammered, avoiding eye contact. Enid stood up and started chanting.
'' Wednesday hid down a blush~!''
Wednesday got embarrassed so she walked over to Enid and grabbed her collar, pulling her closer to her face. Their faces now inches apart.
Wednesday: '' Listen, Enid. The fact that I hugged you back does not mean I've gone soft. I don't know who you think you are, but I will not tolerate this. Chant again and the next thing I'm grabbing won't be your collar, but your throat.'' The girl threatened in an annoyed, venom-filled voice. She looked Enid in her eyes before releasing her grip on Enid's collar and walking back to her bed. Enid stood there, aloof, but also hiding a blush, as she found Wednesday's action rather attractive. She had never been so close to her face. The girl let out a big sigh of relief before returning to bed.
