Opposites attract

Being apart (pt.2)

Wednesday's pov:

-"uncle Fester?"
I call out as I enter the nightshade library.
-"who's uncle Fester?"
Xavier asks, walking out from the shadows.
-"What are you doing here?"
He asks.
-"nothing. What are you doing?"
I ask. He scoffs.
-"since I'm an actual Nightshade I don't have to explain myself"
He says annoyedly as he walks over to one of the shelves.
-"what's your excuse for creeping around in the middle of the night?"
-"research."
He turns to face me again.
-"on the monster?"
-"I don't see how that's any of your business"
I say, turning to walk away.
-"you know what your problem is?"
I stop then turn around and walk over to him.
-"no but I would LOVE to hear your piercing insight"
I say, growing more annoyed. He folds his arms.
-"you don't know who your real friends are"
I don't know what to say...could he be referring to Enid?
-"I'VE been on your side since day one!"
Oh so of course he's only thinking about himself, also that's not even true is he forgetting all the times he doubted me?
-"you wanna know what I think?"
-"sure"
He says opening his arms.
-"every time the monster had attacked you've been right there. With Rowen, at the meeting house, and let's not forget your oh so convenient appearance at the gate's mansion the other night. You even drew where it lived"
He just looks at me without saying a word but I can tell he's upset.
-"and when Eugene went to investigate? You had to put an end to it"
-"but if I was the monster why would I save you?"
-"because for some reason I can not fathom or indulge you seem to like me"
He chokes on his words a bit.
-"what's ta like?"
He says walking out of the library. I then here footsteps hit the floor from behind me, it's uncle Fester.
-"wow I could feel the electricity between you two!"
He says with an evil smile as he shoots an electric current between his hands. I roll my eyes. Thing then enters the room.
-"I'd recognize the patter of those finger tips anywhere"
Uncle Fester says turning to look at Thing. Thing begins stomping angrily and uncle Fester looks at him confused.
-"you can't still be made about the montazooie job! It wasn't my fault!"
Thing then lunges off the table and begins choking my uncle as he yells. It quickly gets annoying.
-"ENOUGH!"
I yell and they both turn to look at me. Thing reluctantly gets off of Fester.
-"where's the diary?"
-"iggy was Faulkner's right hand man"
Uncle fester says, looking up at an old painting.
-"and behind Iggy.."
The then pulls back the picture revealing a safe. Thing hops on to unlock it.
-"can you crack this one quickly or do I have time to take a nap?"
Fester asks mockingly. Thing hurries to unlock the safe where luckily Faulkner's diary is revealed.

Enid's pov:

-"so...um seen Wednesday around?"
Yoko asks.
-"nope. She's probably gotten in trouble again"
I say flipping through a magazine.
-"should we go check up on her?"
-"nah she's got friends who can take care of that"
-"well yeah..like us"
-"us?"
I ask looking up at her confused.
-"I'M not Wednesday's friend. She's no longer my concern. Tyler can take my place for all I care"
Yoko frowns.
-"you were her best friend just a few days ago"
-"was I? Or is that just what I wanted to think?"
Things turn silent and we hear as someone walks past our room. It's Wednesday. Yoko looks at me and I sigh.
-"she's not my concern, can we just move on?"
