The monster that I refuse to call my friend advances towards me slowly, like a lion stalking it's prey. It gives a low whine.
"Bella. You said tonight. Okay? Go back to your hiding spot, it's not even noon yet. At least I don't think it is." I try to convince the monster.
It only moves closer and closer. The low whine emitting from its throat turning into a hiss at the sight of the rock in my hand.
"I said go Bella! And hurry, they might send people that will kill you." I attempt to shoo her away with my free hand, "Leave Bella, now."
The monster backs away, turning completely when the sound of footsteps on the dirt path grow louder. It sees something before I do and runs away, tail flicking as it enters the dark canopy of trees. I turn, expecting the worst, only to see Enid, Ajax, Bianca, and Wednesday.
"Guys, I told you to go back to school." I huff and throw the rock to the side.
Bianca rolls her eyes, "Wednesday here wanted to be the backup that you requested us to send you. So we followed her in case anything else bad was going to happen."
"Yea." Enid chimes in, " Where'd the monster go?"
Everyone has their eyes trained on me and I begin to grow uncomfortable in the silence. Wednesday takes notice and walks to me.
"Let's just get back to school." Wednesday grabs my arm and begins to walk up the trail, releasing me once we're away from the group, "Gwen, I don't want you getting hurt. Alright?"
I nod, looking down towards my feet, feeling as if I'm getting scolded by my parents."Look at me Gwen." Wednesday lifts my chin with three pale, cold fingers. Unconsciously stepping closer to me.
I gaze into her eyes, assessing the deep brown orbs. There's a sparkle in them, something I've never seen before. Weird.
"Show me the pictures." Wednesday commands, her tone more gentle.
I fish out my phone from my pocket and pull up my texts with Enid.
Wednesday grabs my phone and hurries up the path, scanning through my small amount of texts with Enid.
WOLFIE💕: Heres the pic Gwen
WOLFIE💞: U 2 r so cute 🥰 I could totally ship
Gwenie✌️: did you delete the photo? If you didn't I'm going to kill you.- Wednesday
"Wednesday!" I shout chasing after her, "Give that back now!"" Come and get it." Wednesday continues speed walking up the path.
I misjudge my speed and crash into the girl, tackling her into the ground.
My breath hitches as I realize how close I am to the odd girl, our noses almost brushing. My eyes flicker from hers to her lips, not entirely knowing what I'm doing I freeze on top of her in shock.
Wednesday flips me over, now she's on top, sitting on my stomach her arms resting on my shoulders, "You're so heavy Gwen." She complains.
"Nah. You're just weak." I reply with a smirk, causing Wednesday to punch my arm. She becomes unbalanced without both arms holding her up and the dark haired girl lands on me, lips pressed against my own.
