8) Cheating?

Wednesday's POV:

Frustrated, I crumbled the unfinished paper into a ball and slammed it on the desk. Thing appeared and flicked it so that it fell into the trash can.

I was losing my ability to write. I had no ideas and I was losing focus. Enid was on my mind—she had been on my mind all day, which made it hard to focus on my novel.

I eventually gave up though. Enid was out with Yoko, and I was pretty sure I missed her—if that was the correct word.

Thing skittered over and signed, 'What's wrong?'

I shook my head. "No focus—Enid's on my mind," I told him, pressing my fingers against my temples.

Annoyed, I laid my hands back on my desk, but propped my head up with one of them. The hand crawled over and patted my hand on my desk. 'It'll be okay.' He signed.

I rolled my eyes just as someone knocked on the door. I huffed and stood up, going to answer it.

Stupid fucking Xavier.

He stood there like the jerk he was. I wondered how he had the guts to come face-to-face with me after what happened in the quad.

"What?" I said rudely.

"Something bad happened," he answered. His face was full of... remorse?

"What happened?" I asked, intrigued.

"Enid's cheating on you."

My heart immediately shattered as I heard that. I was not expecting him to say that. But I shook my head, unconvinced.

"N-no, she wouldn't," I stammered.

The boy pursed his lips and began to pull out his phone. "I have proof."

He turned his phone to me and I watched a video of Enid and a boy in the quad, talking, while the boy had one of his hands over top of Enid's.

"A new student came to Nevermore today and Enid volunteered to show him around. I saw them in the quad earlier and they were really close. He was flirting with her and she did nothing about it," Xavier explained as I watched the video.

"B-but... I-I thought she only liked girls," I muttered as he pulled his phone away.

He shrugged his shoulders. "Maybe she's bi."

"Send that to me," I ordered before looking at the ground to figure things out. How could she do this to me?

She never told me her sexuality, so maybe she was bisexual. Maybe I wasn't enough for her.

"I'm sorry, Wednesday." I heard, and when I looked back up, Xavier was walking away.

I shut the door as I thought. I needed to confront her. I wasn't going to date someone who didn't like me and was cheating on me.

I walked over to my bag and grabbed the phone I was given. I unlocked it and saw an attachment Xavier sent to me. I knew it was the video so I ignored it for now and texted Enid.
