Meaning of kisses

Summary:

There are different kinds of kisses and they have meanings. Ajax jokingly kisses Enid's hand and everyone around them receives a quick tutorial about kisses by Wednesday Addams.

Coming back to Nevermore as soon as it opened its gates to students, the aftermath of the Hyde and Jericho event changed a lot of things between Wednesday and the group. The so-called social cliques somehow began to mix and match, mainly Enid's and Wednesday's little group.

At the quad, lunch time, Enid was having a blast spending time with her new circle of friends as she waited for her roommate who was nowhere still to be found. The whole Jericho event and the wolfing out did a big number on them and got them to have a bond going on. Around her was Bianca, Yoko, Divina, Xavier, and Ajax. The latter, as Enid and the gorgon agreed on, broke it off during the semester break and now became close friends. Ajax did ask if they can be best friends, but Enid was firm in saying her bestie is still her roommate.

Having lunch with the newly formed group, Ajax was telling them how he was taught by his family to be a gentleman and not to stone himself yet again before a date. One Enid was very much agreeing on. The gorgon was jokingly telling how his family told him to show respect and be courteous towards a woman, which he demonstrated by taking Enid's hand—with her consent after he asked of it first—and playfully planted wet kisses on the back of the werewolf's hand.

"Ewww Ajax! You're getting slobber on my hand!" Enid was laughing as she tried to retract her hand but Ajax was still holding on and making loud kissy noises.

Everyone in their group knew of their newfound friendship after a failed relationship and just laughed at how the two are acting.

Everyone except Wednesday.

As much as Enid wanted to tell her roommate—whom she won't tell that she has fallen head over heels for and realized during their time apart—that she and Ajax were no longer a thing, she decided to tell it when the semester started. But with the whole catching up with everyone and redecorating the room, it slipped her mind. And Wednesday was late in enrolling, saying something related to her family going out for a vacation in the Bermuda Triangle.

"See! I can't find the reason why we need to go back to dark ages and do these kisses thing." Ajax said and gently held Enid's hand and placed another kiss on it. A friendly one. "Chivalry is nice and all but it's dead for a reason."

"As I am fond of anything relating to death and decay, I think that chivalry is dead mostly because those who cannot comprehend the importance of it and unable to perform such acts are boorish and lacking interest towards the person it is meant for."

Everyone on the table looked at the source of the reprimanding and lo and behold, Wednesday Addams, in all her black and white uniform. She stood near Enid, face devoid of emotion as ever, and looking at what was transpiring before her.

Ajax holding Enid's hand.

"And in relation to intimacy such as your hand on another, showering it with caresses and veneration that can make a child's tooth rot from the saccharine gestures, it is not meant to be playful for someone who does not wish for it to move further." Said Wednesday, deadpan as she looked at her roommate whose lips curved up and smiled as if she lighted up the whole place.

"BESTIE!!" Enid excitedly called out, attempting to wave her hand but with Ajax holding her dominant hand, she waved using her left

hand. If she has a tail popped out of her backside, it would've been wagging enthusiastically right now at the sight of the woman she's been waiting for.
