Enid Squeaked. "Wednesday Addams?! Going on the dance?! We have to pick a dress for you!" She said excitedly. "I don't really–" "The dance is tomorrow! We have to go right now!" Enid cut her off and literally dragged her outside.

—————

"Really?" Wednesday asked annoyedly as Enid bought her in front of a shop, with even from outside was full of pink and disgusting. "Oh but wens come on!" Enid tried. "No." Was the only thing Wednesday said before walking away

"Can you belive it? She really Brough me to a shop for unicorns." Wednesday complained to Thing, who was seated on his shoulder.
"Even if it's to 'Impress' Xavier. Not once in my life will I wear that disgusting dresses that are full of color and look like rainbow vomited on them" she sneered as she rolled her eyes.

Suddenly, thing tapped on her shoulder, and tried turning her around. "Thing what is–" she cut herself off once she saw the black dress placed carefully right in front of her. It was long and fluffy. But it was black. And very beautiful. She didn't realise she had been stating before Dr.Kinbott's voice Brough her out of her gaze. "This dress will turn heads" she said with a smile and continued her way. Wednesday turned to look at the dress one more time and she entered the shop.

Wednesday was pacing around impatiently in her room. Already dressed up, her make up done and everything. But Xavier was nowhere to be seen. Enid had already left with Ajax. Its been whole 5 minutes since Enid left.
She was getting mad at herself. Did Xavier change his mind? Maybe he wasn't even going anymore? What if he asked someone else instead? Or maybe– her thoughts were cut off by a loud knock on the door. She froze mid-place. And after few seconds of staring at the door, the knock repeated. She walked up to it with fast steps, opening It, she came across panting Xavier in doorway, his breath hitched as he saw her, looking her up and down.

"For How much longer are you gonna stare?" Wednesday spat, shifting uncomfortably under his gaze. "I uh–" his eyes moved back up to her face "you look beautiful" he said with a smile. Wednesday nodded in response. "I- I'm sorry I'm late by the way– had some problem with my suit" he let out a breathless chuckle.

"Are we going or what?" Wednesday asked. Xavier smiled. "Of course." He said as he offered her his arm, half expecting her to actually take it. To his surprise, Wednesday took his arm as she avoided eye contact. He smiled as they moved towards the dance room.

As soon as they entered, everyone's eyes landed on them. Wednesday, to be specific.
"Wednesday Addams! What a surprise!" Thornhill said as she walked up to them. "I see you took my advice?" She asked with a smile as she looked up at xavier, than back at Wednesday. "Advice?" Xavier raised a brow. "I'll get the drinks" Wednesday said and walked away.

It was good 30 minutes later when the rock music stopped, "some magnificent moves you've got Wednesday" Xavier laughted. "Thanks. You're not bad yourself I guess..." Wednesday glared. Xavier smiled. Suddenly, the room was filled with clam music, and in not even 2 minutes the ballroom was filled with couples slow-dancing around. Xaviers caught got Wednesday's attention.

"So...May I have this dance?" He grinned Sheepishly as he held his hand out for Wednesday to take. Wednesday hesitated. "I um–" she said after a while of silence. She for some goddam reason couldn't reject him. She felt to...bad...to... but the problem was...

"You don't know how to slow-Dance, do you?" Xavier asked with a smile.
"So what if I dont?!" Wednesday said in defensive tone as she crossed her arms. Xavier chuckled. "Nothing, but, allow me to guide you trough it?" Xavier asked hopefully.

"I uh...ok..." Wednesday said quietly as she took his offered hand. Xavier smiled as he pulled her to the dance floor.

—————

''There, you're getting hang of it already." Xavier praised with a smile.
"Thanks I guess..." Wednesday said  as the song ended. Xavier smiled back and suddnely, their eyes locked. everyone stopped, now they were in middle of spotlight, unaware of everyone's eyes on them as Wednesday had her hands still on his shouler, and his hand hasn't moved an inch from her waist. suddnely, Xavier started to lean in, and soon enough, she found his lips on hers. her eyes widened, she didn't knew why, but soon enough, she found herself kissing back. when Xavier pulled away however, panick started to raise in her "I uh– I need to go–" Wednesday said hurriedly as she ran to the Balcony. "Wednesday?!" Confused Xavier yelled as he ran after her.
