Wednesday's POV:

I woke up a bit later than usual the next day. I had gotten back to the dorm around two in the morning. I was out all day, I didn't even remember what I did—it was a blur.

When I checked the time after getting out of bed, I was late for class. My body jerked to start getting ready, but my mind was blank.

I was just going to skip again.

I glanced over at Enid to find her still asleep on her bed. She should have been up—possibly even woke me up and we wouldn't be late.

But I didn't care, I was sure skipping again wouldn't be a problem for her.

Last night was terrible—the weird feelings were enveloping me like crazy, yet I still wasn't sure about them.

Did I like Enid? I very much believed that...

Not.

There wasn't a single chance that I liked someone.

I kissed a guy and now there was a girl... Utterly odd. Especially since that guy was a homicidal monster.

An ugly one too, might I add.

I walked over to my desk and slid a paper into my typewriter, pulling my sleeves up to begin writing. I decided I might as well get my writing time done and over with since I had a bunch of free time.

I heard Enid stir and yawn from the other side of the room, so I assumed the clicking noises woke her up.

"Morning, Wednesday," she said in an awfully good mood.

I hated how cheerful she was in the mornings. Actually, I hated how cheerful she was every day of the week.

"How'd you sleep, roomie? You weren't here when I went to bed last night," the wolf commented. "Actually, you weren't here all day."

"I was occupying myself," I answered dryly. She didn't deserve any information.

"Okay," Enid murmured. Suddenly, she screeched and I turned around in concern, watching her scramble around the room.

"I'm late for class!"

I scoffed quietly. "Like you really care."

The wolf stopped dead in her tracks. "Yeah, you right."

I continued to write, but my annoying roommate kept cutting me off. Fuck you, Enid.

"Hey, do you maybe wanna go—"

"No, fuck off." I quickly cut her off. I couldn't tell if she became angry or not, but frankly, I didn't care.

"Damn, what's your problem?" Enid exclaimed, but I didn't answer.

Then I heard her groan and walk out of the dorm. I sighed softly—finally, some peace and quiet. I started typing again, doubting very much the wolf would be returning anytime soon.

Enid's POV:

Okay, well, Wednesday was mad about some shit—whatever it was.

I trotted through Nevermore's hallways, soon spotting Yoko and Divina on the side talking to each other. I walked toward them and cut them off. "Yoko, can I borrow you for a sec?"

The vampire looked at me and then Divina, who nodded her head, before looking at me again. "Yeah, come on."

I smiled a thank you to the siren as my bestie led me to a more private spot where no one was. "What's up?" she asked once we were alone.

"I think something's wrong with Wednesday," I muttered, fidgeting with the bottom of my shirt. "She was really rude to me earlier for no reason and told me to fuck off."

Yoko's eyes widened. "Damn, Wednesday Addams cursing—that's new. But isn't she like... always rude to you?" She let out a small chuckle.

"I mean, yeah, but like since we came back from vacay, it's been different," I told her.

The vampire gasped, catching me off guard. "Maybe she likes you back!" she blurted.

I quickly shush her, my head whipping back and forth to make sure no one was around. "Impossible," I murmured.

"Or maybe she's hiding something from you. You gotta figure it out!" Yoko smiled, flicking me on the arm.

"You think?" I questioned, and she nodded excitedly. "How though?" I had no clue how I would do that—Wednesday was a tough bean.

"Maybe try to use affection toward her." The girl guffawed and I punched her arm hard.

"Yoko! What the fuck?"

She tried to speak while laughing. "Kidding, I'm kidding. You have to think though. You are her roomie, after all," she informed.

I nodded my head and thanked Yoko before allowing her to return to Divina.

I decided to actually take her advice into action. Maybe affection could be the trick...

Wednesday's POV:

I heard a knock at the door and I put my writing on pause. I walked over and opened the door to find Enid there. I raised an eyebrow in question as to why she was knocking.

She didn't answer me though and simply walked past me. I let out a confused exhale and shut the door. I turned around to be met with the wolf standing a few feet in front of me.

Suddenly, Enid pushed me up against the door and pinned me there. "What the hell?" I grumbled as I tried to break free from her grasp. But it was pointless, werewolves were too strong.

"What are you hiding from me, Addams?" she spat in my face.

I took in her actions and her words. I was enjoying this side of her.

A small smirk crawled onto my face and Enid noticed right away, loosening her grip on me.

No more secrets...

I put my hand under my roommate's chin and pulled her toward me, connecting our lips. I kissed her firmly before pulling away and seeing her red face.

My eyes drifted downward as I spoke to her. "I think I like you, Sinclair." I looked back up to meet her pretty ocean eyes.

Enid stammered for a second before swallowing the lump in her throat. "I think I like you too, Addams."
