Unexpected Love ✩ Wednesday Addams

Frustrated

Scarlett walked with Wednesday, their pinkies secretly hooked together as they walked towards the group of students harmonizing in the quad. Wednesday had to choose an extra curricular and since Scarlett was in the midst of choosing hers, Wednesday insisted (forced) Scarlett to join her so they'd find one (hopefully together).

"Weems said you'd be stopping by." Bianca stated as the two girls approached the siren, Wednesday with a blank look and Scarlett just flat out bored. "But to be honest, after your performance at the Harvest festival, drama club might be more your speed." 

"You arrogant little bi-" Scarlett's quiet muttering was cut off when Wednesday slid her entire hand in hers, pulling her back on behind her to stop her from attacking Bianca.

"After I passed out, who did you tell? The sheriff?" Wednesday then asked the siren, her tone serious and a slightly rushed.

"You think I'd trust normie cops? I went straight to Weems and let her handle it." Bianca countered as she shrugged it off, Wednesday glancing away. "Anyway, let's get this audition over with." She then looked over at the two girls. "What are you? Alto, soprano, or just loco?"

"Perra, te mataré." Scarlett cursed under her breath, Bianca didn't quite understand it but Wednesday held back a snicker and a small smirk as she looked Bianca in the eyes.

The wind blew lightly through Wednesday's hair as a guy tried playing the piano till Wednesday opened her mouth, there was no sound but Scarlett noticed how the guy's glasses cracked.

"What was that?" Bianca asked confused.

"A note only dogs can hear." Wednesday answered, before grabbing Scarlett by the arm, dragging her away.

The next place on the list was the archery range. Scarlett wasn't bad but she was better than Xavier. She watched him shoot the arrow and it land far away from the center. "Huh. You actually showed up? Ever shot a bow and arrow before?" Xavier said as he looked at Wednesday who stared backed with her usual emotionless gaze.

"Only on live targets." She finally said and Scarlett smiled a little at the answer she gave.

"Okay." Xavier says after a moment of shock. He grabbed an arrow. "Square stance." He pointed to his feet. "Load the arrow like this, yellow side out." He held up his hand. "Three fingers." He held the bow up. "Pull back and..." He shot the arrow it show barely above the first one he shot. "Let it fly. You know Scarlett's actually really good at this too." Xavier pointed to the vampire who was busy watching a ladybug on her finger. Wednesday looked her way, tilting her head at how cute she looked before looking back at the boy who said, "Any questions?"

"When's the last time you saw your roommate Rowan?" The black-haired girl didn't hesitate to jump in and ask this question.

"You mean the one that was killed by a monster?" He mocked and that caught Scarlett's ears as she gave him a side eye glare that made him clear his throat. "The Harvey festival. I haven't talked to him since." He answered, reaching for another arrow as the curly haired girl sat on a stack of hay, playing with the ladybug on her hand once more. "But his side of the room was all packed this morning. Rowan's always been a little off, but uh the last couple weeks he's been more erratic." He shook his head. "You know, telekinesis can mess with your head, you know. He's... it started to freak me out."

He released the arrow, landing it once again in the same area as the other two. "What's the deal with you and Tyler?" Xavier asked and Wednesday looked at him with raised eyebrows. "I'm sorry, were you the only one who got to ask non-archery questions?"
