"Xavier And Wednesday being very close friends and both in love with each other, everyone mocking them about it, however Wednesday denies she has romantic feelings, unless she sees some girl flirting with Xavier and becomes jealous."

As requested by "Natato" on ao3

....................

Wednesday had become close with some people during her time at Nevermore. Eugene and Enid remained her top priority when it comes to friends. 

Bianca and her were still not on the best of terms, but they generally didn't have a problem with each other. 

Yoko, Divina and Kent were all fairly nice to her. 

They owed her after she saved the goddamned school.

Ajax was required to hang out with her due to dating Enid AND being part of the Nightshades (Which Wednesday reluctantly joined.). 

Xavier, on the other hand, seemed to have completely forgotten everything that happened last year. 

"It's all good."

Wednesday accepted this, and allowed Xavier to become one of her closest friends. They could spend hours just sitting in silence, him drawing and her writing. It was definitely more calming than hanging out with Enid. 

......................

And then she started gaining feelings. 

She wouldn't have recognized the swoop in her stomach, the sweat on her palms, the random heat in her cheeks without Enid's help. She gave Wednesday a blow by blow of love, and crush and feelings and ugh- 

Wednesday denied everyone's claims though. 

"Dude, you and Wednesday are practically a married couple."

She would get up and leave. 

"50 bucks says the're secretly dating."

She threw an orange peel at Yoko.

"Xavier and Wednesday sittin in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-JESUS WEDNESDAY STOP HITTING ME!" 

And day after day, Xavier would apologize for their actions, telling her they were just messing with them, that everyone knew there was nothing between them.

And that hurt slightly more than the mocking comments. 

........................

"And that's the end to my sketchbook." Xavier sighed to himself. He was blowing through sketchbook after sketchbook, drawing pictures of, well, Wednesday. 

A girl came over, swinging her long brown hair over her shoulders. It was purple at the tips. "Is anyone else sitting here?"

"No." 

"May I?"

"Sure, it's a free country." He joked.

She smiled slightly. She had freckles dotting her face. It reminded him of Wednesday. "So you're Xavier Thorpe?"

"That's me."

"I heard you do art! I do too, I was wondering maybe you could help me?"

She had warm brown eyes. "Of course!"

She smiled even wider. "Here, I'll give you my number. Text me when you want to meet up!"

He nodded and handed her a sheet of paper and a pen. She scribbled down her number and handed it to him. Their fingers brushed. He didn't feel a spark. 

Not like with Wednesday. "See you around, Xavier Thorpe."

He nodded and smiled.

................

Wednesday had watched that entire interaction. He would not be calling that girl. She wouldn't allow it. 

"She seems like a slut." 

Xavier jumped as Wednesday walked towards him, coming out of her hiding spot.

"Shut up, she's really nice." He seethed at her.

"Seem pretty protective over someone you just met!" She hissed.

"What the fuck Wednesday, I'm allowed to talk to people beyond our friend group." 

"Not hoes like her." 

He shook his head. "Can we take this somewhere private?"

She growled slightly and nodded. 

The walk to Xavier's art shed was completely silent. 

Once he shut and locked the door, making sure she didn't make a run for it, he turned back to her.

"ALL SHE WANTED WAS ART LESSONS!"

"Bet she wanted a lot more than that."

He ran his fingers through his hair, looking thoroughly confused and pissed. "Art lessons, Wednesday, art lessons. I don't understand why that's a problem for you!" 

"Because those art lessons could evolve into a relationship!"

"And for you that means...? Why do you care what I do in my free time?"

"I don't."

"Then let me give the poor girl goddamn art lessons."

"What, so she can kiss you or some shit?"

"No, so her art doesn't look like shit!"

"She doesn't do art, Xavier. You may be the dumbest person alive. She doesn't give a crap about art, or sketching, or anything! She's just got a crush on you!"

He was quiet for a second. "Wait, really?"

"Yeah."

"Oh."

He looked a little confused. "Why does that matter so much to you?"

"Because I like you. And I don't want her taking you away from me."

His eyes widened. "What do you mean by 'like'?"

"I'm in love with you, you thick-headed idiot!" 

His smiled could have brightened up the world. He hugged her with so much force she was almost sure her ribs were broken. "I love you too Wednesday!"

"Put me down."

"NEVERRR," 

.........................

And now, their friends don't tease them. The other girl, Cathy or Katie or something, was not pleased. And they are happily dating.

And they have art lessons twice a week.
