It was Wednesday's birthday, which is what caused Charlotte to be huddled next to Ajax in a creepy tomb. She hears someone enter and grips onto Ajax's hand.
"Enid?" She hears Wednesday yell out. Someone behind Charlotte coughs causing her to look back at the person and slightly glare.
"Whoever you are show yourself" Wednesday orders. "Try anything and you'll lose limbs" Charlotte widens her eyes slightly. Everyone gets out from behind the concrete.
"Surprise" They all shout. They start singing happy birthday as Enid comes in with the cake. Wednesday points the flashlight at Thing.
"I should've known you were behind this. What part of 'no party under the penalty of death" do you not understand?" She asks Thing.
"i thought my cake design was pretty inspired" Xavier says.
"The pink balloon was my little touch" Enid adds. "Why don't you make a wish?" Enid asks. Wednesday notices something on the wall and Charlotte sighs in disappointment. She was in a creepy tomb for her the most she could do was make a wish. She zones out and leans her head on Ajax's shoulder.
"Wait, we're never eating that cake are we?" Ajax asks causing Charlotte to gently elbow him in the ribs. Wednesday touches the thing and her head snaps back. Charlotte knew she was having a vision.

Charlotte was currently sitting on Ajax's bed while he was in the shower. She was scrolling through TikTok on her phone.
"Ahhh!" Charlotte quickly rushes towards the bathroom when she heard that praying that Ajax didn't stone himself again. She hesitated.
"Ajax?" She called out. When she got no response she opened the door to see nothing but steam. She got closer to the shower.
"Charlotte?" She heard an alert voice ask from behind the shower.
"yeah." Charlotte answers.
"What are you doing? You could get stoned" Ajax says holding the curtain closed as if Charlotte was going to open it.
"I heard you scream and I thought you stoned yourself" She explains. She rubs her arm embarrassed by this.
Ajax simply just laughs. "I'll be out in a second" Charlotte nods although he couldn't see her and walks out. She lays on Ajax's bed shoving her head into he pillows. Her face was completely red from embarrassment.
The soft sound of Ajax laughing behind her causes her to slightly look at him. He sits down beside her and slightly rubs her arm.
"No need to be embarrassed, darling" Charlotte blushes at the nickname. She sits up to look at him. Ajax has a smirk on his face and his eyebrows are raised. Ajax softly grabs her hand and intertwines their fingers. He brings her hand up to his mouth and he gently kisses it before bringing it back down. Charlotte couldn't help but admire this action. It felt more genuine than kissing.
"So, what do you want to do today?" He asks the girl as he plays with her fingers. Charlotte lets out a breath and starts to think.
"I have no clue" She says. Ajax looks down at their hands and softly laughs.
"What?" Charlotte asks. Ajax looks up at her with a big smile on his face.
"I'm just really happy. I never thought I would be able to hold your hand again" He admits truthfully.
"Ajax," Charlotte starts and cups his face gently. "I was always yours. I was just scared. I'm sorry for doing that to you. But, I want you to know that I couldn't imagine doing anything with anyone else" Ajax blushes.
"That was a little cheesy" He says while chuckling.
"Shut up" She playfully retorts.

Charlotte got back to her dorm with a huge smile on her face. RIley sat on her bed and noticed the happiness radiating off of her best friend.
"You haven't been this happy since you and Ajax were a thing" Riley says. Charlotte looks at her with a guilty smile. Riley gasps loudly.
"Tell me everything!" She yells going over to Charlotte's bed.
Charlotte told her everything. From the dance to what happened on parents weekend to today.
"Yes!! My favorite Nevermore couple is back baby!" Riley yells.
"Well, we're not official yet" Charlotte corrects.
"Key word, yet. You guys are going to be together soon" Charlotte just laughs.
"So, how are you and Lizzy?" Riley blushes at the mention of the blonde siren.
"She's great. Everything's great. It's..." Charlotte finishes her sentence. "Great?" Riley nods. "Yeah"
Riley's phone pinged. She checked it and hurriedly got her stuff together.
"I'm going out tonight. Cover for me" Is all she said before running out of the door, leaving a confused Charlotte behind.

Charlotte, being bored, decided she was going to sneak into Ajax's dorm. She made it up there and knocked on the door. Ajax opened it and smiled before pulling the girl in.
"I thought you were going back to your dorm?" Ajax asked.
"Riley left and I got lonely" She explains while wrapping her arms around his neck. Ajax smirks and puts his hands on her hips pulling her closer.
"Well, I can entertain you" He whispers while moving his face closer. She shivers slightly causing his smirk to widen. She looks into his eyes before she presses her lips to his. This kiss was slow and soft at first, but it soon turned rushed and heated. Charlotte pulled away slightly causing Ajax to follow her lips. Charlotte laughed. Ajax wrapped his arms tighter around her waist and pulled her to him.
"One more" He whispers before softly kissing her. Charlotte gasps whenever he picks her up and gently throws her onto his bed.
"What are you doing?" She giggles.
"We are cuddling and watching Impractical Jokers" He says as he frantically searches for his laptop. He lets out a sound of victory as he finds it and jumps next to Charlotte on the bed. He opens his laptop and gets on HBO Max. He quickly finds the show and starts it. He sets it down and opens his arms. Charlotte laughs and wraps her arms around his neck, his immediately going around her waist. They stayed like that for a while.
Every time Ajax laughed Charlotte couldn't help but admire the sound. The words replayed in her mind. The words she was so scared of she didn't talk to Ajax for 7 months. The whole reason she was hesitant. She loved Ajax.
