"I didn't ask you to join me, Xavier," Wednesday muttered dismissively. There were several thoughts flying around her mind, a flurry of emotions building within her, and a heart that was now beating at a very unhealthy rate knowing he had managed to follow her out here.
"Oh right, like I'm supposed to just let you go out and do dangerous things all by yourself and stand by and watch you do those things?! It's IMPECCABLE to think you even considered for a moment you would be able to squeeze away unexpectedly knowing we had scheduled plans today. What happened to those? Suddenly this takes place before what we had planned weeks in advance?" Xavier huffed bitterly, crossing his arms as he stood facing her.
The noirette glared at the long-haired boy, shaking her head as she looked down, kicking a small pebble away before looking back up at him.
"I am not bound to you, Xavier, and I never will be. I don't understand why you must be so emotional at all times. There is no room for emotion when lives are at stake," Wednesday relayed professionally, straightening her collar as she attempted to sidestep the boy.
He stepped in front of her once more, this time placing his hands on both her arms as he looked down at her with a hurt look displayed against his already somber face.
"Emotions are at the root of everything! You must feel something in order to feel that need to save people. But I just don't get why you wouldn't at least tell me where you were going!" He exclaimed, but his voice cracked as he stepped back, shoving his hands into his pocket.
She stared at him for several moments before sighing, her fists clenching into tight knots before releasing, then tightening them once more. There was plenty she wanted to say, either to hurt him or insult him. He had no right to follow her, and then to accuse her...it was cowardly and insecure, to say the least. But again, it was Thorpe, of course, he would blame emotions for getting in the way of things.
"Fine. Obviously, your silence is enough for me to know you want me to leave you alone," he said, and he took a step to the side to signify he was done blocking her path, his hand trailing out as he gave her a sad look.
Wednesday peered into his eyes, not sure if this was where she was supposed to just go like he said, or try and console him. He was on the verge of tears, like a little child, but she held him in her heart, and seeing him cry almost made her feel bad.
Almost.
She began taking slow steps forward, passing him before pausing just slightly ahead of him, and turning around. He stood in the same place, staring at her as she made a full turn toward him, her head pounding from the horrid waves of emotion flowing off of him.
"Don't go," he whispered, "...not without me."
Her heart skipped a beat.
There was such raw, pure emotion behind those words, and something shifted so violently within her that she feared she may have cracked her spinal cord in half. It was as if those measly words countless people had whined before suddenly meant so much more as if those words carried more weight than anything else.
Her eyes lingered on his slumping frame, his eyes scanning her face for any trace of emotion as to what her final decision would be. His lip twitched, and his eyes widened slightly as he allowed a smile to slowly creep onto his face.
Wednesday held her hand out to him, and he slowly, almost hesitantly, walked forward and caught hold of her hand, and she gave it a hard squeeze as she clenched her teeth.
"You are a manipulative emotion-prone hog, and fortunately those are the best compliments you will receive from me," she said softly, and he laughed quietly before looking down at her once more.
"Ahh well you know you love me."
"Love is a societal-"
"Shh, no geeking out about it alright."
She rolled her eyes at him.
Maybe he wasn't as bad as she had assumed.
