~ third-person pov ~

The last week of the Christmas holidays felt like it passed by quicker than expected. Xavier couldn't wait to come face to face with Wednesday. He never really enjoyed being at home as he was alone most of the days. His father was always occupied in his job and he barely paid any attention to Xavier. So, he enjoyed the company of Ajax and his other friends. On the other hand, Wednesday was losing control over her emotions. She had an unusual feeling in her stomach. Her heart rate was surprisingly high. But all of this only took place when she was thinking of him. Xavier. What was he doing to her?

~ Wednesday's pov ~
Lurch helped me move my luggage to my dorm. I thanked him, and he left. I decided to start unpacking my suitcases. Since, I was done putting my clothes in the closet and arranging my toiletries in the bathroom. I was making my way out of the dorm, when I was wrestled to the ground by a pink creature. "OMG WEDNESDAY! I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!" I breathed a sigh of relief knowing it was Enid. I stepped back and brushed the dust off my dress and finally spoke, "Hello, Enid. It's good to see you're still alive" I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss her company.

Enid rambled on while unpacking about how her and Ajax met up at least twice a week during the holidays and how her mother didn't like the idea of her daughter not choosing her partner to be a fur. After 30 minutes of unpacking, she got dressed into more comfortable clothing and then suggested "Oh! We should head to the quad, I heard we're meeting our new principal." I gave her a small nod as she got a hold of my wrist and pulled me all the way to the quad.

~ Xavier's pov ~
I reached Nevermore at 8:30. I dumped all my stuff in my dorm and rushed to the quad, hoping to see Ajax and...Wednesday. Since I was late, pretty much the whole school had already arrived. How was I supposed to find Wednesday in the crowd. I was lost in my own thoughts when someone grabbed my shoulder. "Xavier! Hey man, It's good to see you again dude." Ajax said while asking for a handshake. I let out a smile as i shook is hand. "Ajax! I'm glad to see ya again too." I noticed Enid wasn't with him "Why aren't you with Enid?" I asked him. I figured if Enid was around, Wednesday would probably be with her. "Oh, she ran off looking for Wednesday." I

After a few minutes, a woman holding an announcement mic, walks up to the center of the quad and claps a few times to get everyone's attention. After the quad finally hushed up she spoke, "Good morning, students of Nevermore! I am your new headmistress. My name is Eastyn, but you may call me Ms. East. I will be teaching botany until we find another teacher for that subject. Oh! And we will have 3 new students joining us this semester! They will be arriving a little late so you all will meet them during class tomorrow. I hope we can all give them a warm welcome!"

After the new headmistress left the stage, Enid came running upto Ajax and squealed when she saw Xavier, "Xavier! I'm absolutely THRILLED to see you again!" Enid beamed at him.

"Oh, Enid, It's great to see you too. Uhm, did you happen to see Wednesday? I kinda thought she'd be with you." Enid looked around for a few seconds. "I don't really know cause' she said she had something 'important' to do, then she ran off." Enid replied.

*flashback*
"Wednesday come on! We're gonna be late to meet our new principal AND I need to see Ajax too! Enid had no idea why Wednesday didn't want to come outside with the rest of the school. "Enid I will meet you here, in the quad again in a few minutes. There is something... important I need to take care of." Wednesday replied in her usual monotone voice. "Fine. But come quick!"
Wednesday gave her a nod as Enid ran off.

*present*
Enid went to the girls' dorms to look for Wednesday. She found her in their dorm sitting near her typewriter. Enid walked up to Wednesday, standing over her, "Wednesday." She looked up from her typewriter to see Enid glaring at her. "Why didn't you come back?" She asked Wednesday. "I had forgotten how it was like being around so many...people. It was making me uncomfortable." Enid's pout turned upwards into a soft smile. "Do you wanna come with me? Xavier's there...maybe you would like to see him?"

Wednesday's eyes slightly widened when she heard his name. "Xavier is here?" "He's been looking all over for you! Let's go!" Enid grabbed Wednesday's hand and lead her to the quad. She let go of Wednesday's hand when she saw Ajax.

Xavier watched Enid come back running with a short, black figure behind her. And there she was. Xavier immediately ran towards her when he spotted her "Wednesday! I've uhm- been looking for you." He was electrified when he saw her. "Xavier." She looked up at him. "How were your holidays?" Xavier questioned her "It wasn't terrible. How was...yours?"

Wednesday wasn't one to engage in small talk, so this took Xavier by surprise. He raised his eyebrows and responded "It was fine...I guess." There was an awkward silence between the two. Xavier decided to break the silence and ask her, "Do you want to go and sit over there?" He asked her, pointing to one of the stone benches. She gave a small nod and marched to the bench which was a few steps from her. Xavier followed her and took a seat in front of her.

They just sat there for a while in one another's presence while stealing a quick glimpse of each other when one wasn't looking. Xavier noticed something about Wednesday. She had an expectant look on her face. She almost looked...happy?

After a while, everyone started to exit from the quad and went to get lunch. Enid and Ajax settled on one of the tables in the dining-room for Xavier and Wednesday, while the two went to get their lunch. Wednesday didn't have much in her bowl. Just a few fruits and a cup of coffee. Xavier had a heavy breakfast so he skipped lunch. Wednesday sat in front of Enid with Xavier sitting next to her.

(Its the end of the day and everyone have gone to their dorms to sleep)

Wednesday got changed into her sleepwear and prepared herself to sleep. She dozed off in a matter of seconds.

She woke up to Enid squealing,

"Today is the beginning of the new semester! You can't sleep in!"

I spent 8 days on this story ONLY FOR IT TO TURN OUT THIS BAD. But I think the plot is good but the writing? no.

Btw we'll have 3 new characters in the next part! I'll give some character info if you'd like to know who they are before reading the next part. But you can skip it if you want a surprise.
