Wenclair - After That Night

Chapter 7: Bonding???

Enid's POV

"Eh?! Why???? Isn't it cute???" I ask, worried at Wens's suggestion.

I looked at the mirror with a pout and my eyebrows going up. Does it...really not fit me??

I hear Wens sigh from behind. I looked at her through the mirror's reflection. She stood up and approached me from behind.

"I didn't say that it wasn't cute, Sinclair, nor did I say that it did not suit you. It does suit you if you were going to town for the date." She says as she takes the rack of clothes from me.

I cross my arms and pouted, looking away. I guess she has a point. I mean, I would like look TOOOOTALLY ridiculous if I were gonna look like I was shopping or somethin when we're just gonna be having a movie night in the dorm.

"I assume you would be having this 'date' within the confines of the school, yes?" She asks, looking at me through the reflection. Making me nod.

Wens is like being weird. Earlier, she seemed to even be irritated by the fact that she was gonna help me with clothing, but like NOW??? She's so all in for it.

Not to mention what she did earlier. She LITERALLY just like pinned me to the wall. It totally caught me off guard and stuff, and like it made me so nervous. Like VERY nervous...

No one has gotten THAT close to my personal space in a long time. My heartbeat went so fast, I thought that Wens would hear it. I mean, just thinking about it now makes me...

GOD no! Do NOT even think about THAT ENID! STUPID!!! Wens is your BEST FRIENNNNND AND YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND. Let's NOT think about fantasies of out BEST FRIEND and do that to our BOYFRIEND.

I was snapped out of trance by Wens. She was snapping her fingers in front of my face, making me look up back at the mirror. I was COMPLETELY RED!! What the hell?!?!

"Sinclair, are you gonna stay focused? If not, then I'm changing my mind in making you presentable for that....GORGON" She says almost scowling? Or maybe that's cringing?? I don't even know anymore, she's so complicated.

I watched as she walked to my closet. She cringes at the amount of color that fills my closet as she rummages around it. I'm still honestly surprised that she's willing to do this, and I appreciate it but she's pushing herself too much for me.

I approached her and held her shoulder, she doesn't react, instead she takes out an oversized hoodie and shorts that were above the knee. The color palette even matched. The hoodie had a combination of white, pastel blue and pink tints. For the shorts, it was simple and pink.

It gave a cute and homey vibe. I'm honestly surprised that she has thought of having me put THIS much color and THIS type of clothing instead of...well... Black and overly conservative clothes I would say??

It's also honestly sweet of her to convince herself to help despite the unwillingness. This is honestly a refreshing new side of her and I like it.

"You should try it on Sinclair for you to see if it really suits you," the gothic styled girl says as she sits on the bed.

I nodded and happily went to the bathroom to change clothes. I put the clothes on and looked at the mirror first, fixing myself before going outside.

Wens looks at me, and her eyes widened? Maybe she was surprised?? There's even a hint of pink on her cheeks... Is she BLUSHING?! Is THE Wednesday Addams blushing at my outfit?!? Is Wens gay?! I didn't know!

Wens shakes her head and back to her normal expression, but the blush is still there. It was only a small tint if you didn't pay attention to her face. She gives me a nod of approval before looking at the clock.

This makes me look, too. It was already 6:30?! Gosh, that's fast. A will pick me up at 7, I totally need to get ready.

I went to the mirror to have one last look at my style before getting my makeup. I sat in my chair and started to fix my makeup for a bit until I heard Wednesday mutter something before making me turn to her.

"What's that??" I asked, curious at her words. She turned her head to me, blushing again, but this time it was more red than pink.

"Oh, nothing, Sinclair. Continue on with what you're doing" She says as she stands up and walks to the bathroom.

I glanced at her through the mirror as she went into the bathroom. Leaving me to think about the stuff that has happened. Wens really surprised me. She hasn't been this considerate since...well since like FOR-EVER well not FOREVER but she hasn't been like this much and she usually doesn't show it this much.

I totally appreciate it, though. Like this is a good small change in Wens. I guess Ajax isn't the only one who changed hehe. It's good to know that two of my best peeps are havin good change.

As I put on my lip tint, I heard tapping, going up to the table. I look at the table as I put my lips together.

"Hi Thing! What do you think??" I ask as I look at the mirror.

I look at his reflection, giving me a thumbs up. I smiled at his approval and finished my make-up as Wens went outside the bathroom. I looked at her reflection, and she seemed to be dizzy? I mean, it's not noticeable, but for me, who sees her every day for like a few months, I can tell.

What did she do in there? I stand and reach my hand out to her, worried about what happened in the bathroom.

"You okay, Wens?" I gently held her right shoulder. She held my hand with her left hand, and we made eye contact.

The world seemed to stop at that moment.
