Wednesday's Pov

After asking Enid if she wanted to have a movie night she spent the rest of the lesson talking about movies we could watch. They all sounded hideous but she seemed genuinely happy talking about them.

The rest of the day went normally, the rest of my classes were the same as they always were.

By the end of the school day I had prepared myself for the torturous movies I would have to watch for the next few hours.

I walked into me and Enid's dorm and she was already there. She had set up her bed with and laptop and a bunch of snacks prepared for us both. She jumped up from her bed when she saw walk through the door.

"Wednesday! You're here!" I finally recognised her, her happy, bubbly self had reappeared "go change, we have a movie marathon to get through" she danced around excitedly in celebration that I'd agreed to this.

I nodded and headed to my side of the dorm's bathroom. I quickly changed out of my black Nevermore uniform and into some plain black sweatpants and a black hoodie.

Once I was finished changing I headed back out to Enid, she was already sat in her bed waiting for me. I walked over and she patted the space in bed next to her.

I sat down with her, slightly pressed up against her since it was only a single bed. She pulled her covers over both of us and picked up to laptop from the end of her bed, she placed on top of both our legs so it was in the middle of us.

"I can't believe you wanted to do this" she smiled at me, her face inches from mine. Realising how close she was to me made my face feel hotter than ever.

I looked forward hoping she wouldn't notice since it was quite dark "I got you some snacks I know you like" she pointed to my left where all my favourite things were sat on her bedside table. She remembered the things I like.

"Enid, thank you" she nodded and pressed play on her laptop starting the first movie of the night.

We both lied back more and got comfortable making us even closer and more pressed up against each other. I could smell her sweet perfume filling my nose, I liked it, whenever I could smell anything like it I thought of her. It comforted me.

Time went on and we were about halfway through our third movie, they surprisingly weren't as bad as I thought they'd be. Enid had picked movies that would be enjoyable for her but also for me too.

As I kept my eyes ahead looking at Enid's laptop I felt her eyes on me, I turned to look at her and she smiled "you know, you should let your hair down" I shook my head "no" no one apart from my mother and father had ever seen my hair down.

"Come onnn" she dragged out her words pleading for me to say yes "no Enid" I was sat up slightly more than her causing her to look up at me "please".

I didn't want to say yes to her but I couldn't say no, looking at those eyes of hers as she begged me made me weak.

"..fine" I looked down knowing I'd just given into her which is something I would've never done months ago.

I glanced back at her and she look ecstatic, she sat up to be my level. I began to take out my braids as she watched me.

Once I finished one side I went for the other side, Enid looked fascinated as I did this. That wasn't surprising, I doubt she ever expected me to give in.

Once I had undone both sides I shook my hair and looked back at Enid "happy now?" She looked back at me mesmerised.

"Wednesday.." I look down, slightly embarrassed. I'd gotten use to only ever taking my hair out when I was alone so this is new to me.

"You look so pretty" as she spoke her cheeks began to glow red, mine matched hers seconds later after taking in what she had said "..thank you".

I looked into her eyes as she looked back into mine. Eye contact wasn't never something I liked but I enjoyed looking at her eye, they were beautiful.

I hadn't realised how we'd drifted closer to each other, she was much closer now. I could feel her breath against my lips.

Her eyes wondered down to my lips seconds later, mine made their way down to hers too. Her pink lips that shined from her lip gloss, they looked so soft.

Was this really happening right now?

I could feel my body pulling itself towards hers, I allowed it, we both leaned into each other more.

Just before our lips connected there was a knock at the door.

Enid pulled back before I could even process the knock, she had this look on her face, a look that was utterly unreadable.

"Enid I know you're in there, can we talk please?" The person behind the door called out. It was Ajax. Enid quickly jumped up and rushed to the door without a word. She opened it and stepped outside the dorm.

I sat in her bed in silence. I almost just kissed Enid, it didn't feel real, was I having some sort of hallucinations?

I got up from her bed and made my way to my bathroom quietly. I almost called out for thing, hoping he'd know what I should do. But then I remembered I'd sent him to Eugene's dorm to keep him company for the night.

I was completely alone for this one.

What now?

A/N: hey everyone! What are we thinking about this chapter? Will Wednesday and Enid get another chance like that? Does Enid regret what almost happened? What will Wednesday do now?
Hope you all enjoyed! :)
