Pain and Tourture

Chapter 9-Wanna Talk?

                                                       Lips pressed against my own.

My eyes widen in surprise, my checks becoming a deep scarlet red as I taste Wednesday Addams dark cherry lipstick. Suddenly we're floating five feet in the air, the raven haired girl inclosed in my arms. Wednesday's eyes are closed, as if she feels at peace with me. Huh. 

Wednesday breaks away from me quickly as a scream resonates around the trees. Her eyes flicker open and she seems to take in that most if not all of the loose items on the ground are hovering in the air.

"GWEN!!!" The voice screams again and everything slowly returns to the ground as I spot Enid struggling to propel herself towards me, full of rage.

"Sorry?" I back away from Enid as she attempts to smack me.

"What the heck?" Ajax walks over to the three of us, "Gwen, did you do that?"

"Yup." I nod, popping the p. I turn, looking for Wednesday and spot her being dragged to a corner by Enid.

Bianca arrives, looking at me with a new look of awe. At least I think it's awe. "Good trick."

"Thanks." I send her a tight lipped smile.

Enid let's out a high pitched squeal, catching the attention of everyone. Wednesday scolds the were wolf because of her sudden excitement.

I head to them, not wanting the two friends to kill each other. Enid signals to head up the path with her, ahead of the others.

"Why did we suddenly loose gravity?" Enid asks, her voice full of curiosity, " Wednesday only told me part of the story."

"I would like to know what she said." Warmth creeps up my neck at the thought of what Wednesday told the blonde.

" All she said was that she took your phone and you ran after her," Enid lets out a sigh, "She never tells me much."

"Well she told you the truth. Just not all of it." I admit, " I ran into her and she punched me." I show Enid the red mark on my arm.

"Why'd we all start floating then?" Enid nudges me, " I thought it only happened when you had a strong emotion."

"Pain is a very strong emotion. " I argue back, " When I was younger I broke my arm falling down the stairs. Everyone was able to touch the ceiling."

I see Nevermore's towers over the hill and pick up speed, thinking of new lyrics for the song.

"Enid! Gwen!" A voice calls out, a vampire running towards the two of us.

"What's wrong Yoko?" Enid's eyes go wide.

"Good Gwen you're here. But where's Wednesday?" Yoko asks.

"Here." Wednesday says, startling the vampire, "Why?"

"Someone ransacked Gwen's room and Thing is in there but he's not answering to anyone." Yoko stumbles back as Wednesday and I sprint through the grounds and up to my room Wednesday muttering the whole way, "No, not again."

"Thing?" She yells as she bursts through the door.

All of my belongings are on the floor, pillow fluff everywhere, and Thing standing in the middle of it all, shaking uncontrollably.

"What happened?" I run over to Thing, Wednesday following close behind.

The only response comes from Thing pointing at the wall opposite my bed. I turn and see the words I thought you loved me... painted in something dark.

I shudder, wondering what Bella used for the lettering and whisper "Shoot." Walking out into the balcony I raise my voice and yell, "That was before you almost killed me, before you left, before you let me think that you were dead!" I continue on, knowing full well that she can hear me, "I never want to see you again. And the next time I do I will kill you." Huffing I return to Wednesday and Thing.

"What do you mean?" Wednesday scoots closer to where I'm sitting against my wrecked bed.

"Two years ago my friend Bella, who you know as the monster, was put under a curse." I sigh, " A young girl with something along the lines that we have, despised Bella's looks and did something to make her turn into a monster, who apparently an only turn human at the full moon. Unfortunately, for me, I was right next to Bella when she turned for the first time." I stop, shutting down, knowing what will happen if I continue.

Thing crawls over and pats my hand in a comforting way while Wednesday tries, " Gwen, you don't have to tell me but Enid repeatedly says that sharing things and talking sometimes makes it better."

I gulp, debating on wether or not to say the things that have plagued my dreams to a girl that I know nothing about, "Tell me about yourself first. I know absolutely nothing about you."

"Oh?" Wednesday seems shocked, " Well, last year I was haunted, hunted, and almost killed. My hobbies include sneaking up on people, animal autopsies, torturing my brother and his bullies, and decapitating dolls. I fought against the reincarnated form of Jericho's founder Joseph Crackstone and the hyde Tyler Galpin."

"Alright Wednesday. I have one more question. Do you like girls?" i regret the words as soon as they escape my mouth.

Wednesday's cheeks tint with a light pink, almost unnoticeable to the mortal eye, "I honestly don't know."

"So you're just going to ignore what happened in the woods?" I'm getting confused now.

"No. not exactly. I just need to sort out my feelings." Wednesday's voice is as cold and monotone as before. Not one hint of emotion.

"Well, I need to sort out my room." I snap, tired of these antics.

"Come on Thing. Gwen needs some time alone." She walks out quickly, not looking back.

I pull up my texts with Enid.

Gwenie✌️: Hey, can you come over? I need some help cleaning.

WOLFIE💕: What about Wednesday

Gwenie✌️: She left with Thing.

WOLFIE💕:On my way! 

Enid comes barreling into my room, full of energy like an excited dog, "Let's do this!"

" Alright. You start on that side and work to the middle." I head over to the wall with the paint, rolling my shoulders for the attempt of scrubbing it off.

"Race ya!" Enid yells and the competition begins.
