Born in fire [A Wednesday x OC story]

Chapter 5: History on fire

"I heard a new history teacher was coming to teach us for the rest of the semester. Apparently he's, like, super famous!"

Wednesday listened with a frown as Enid was speaking too loudly despite it being so early in the morning.

"It is only a teacher. Since when do you care about all that?

-It's not only the fact that he's famous! It's the fact that he was miss Thornhill's date at the Rave'N! Do you have any idea of the number of gossips about it?! People are saying the two of them are together and he decided to stay so they could be together!

-I don't care about gossips.

-Yeah I know, you only care about your investigation and Jacob."

Wednesday raised a brow.

"What?

-What?

-What was that about Jacob?

-Yeah! There are gossips about how you two are having a secret relationship! Of course I know it's not true because, well, I'm the queen of gossips. But the whole idea is thrilling!

-I do not care about that man, Enid.

-Sure you don't. After all since when does Wednesday Addams looks at men? Oh wait, There are Tyler and Xavier.

-They both are a mean to an end.

-And Jacob?

-Someone I can't trust."

Enid smirked and pointed a finger at Wednesday.

"Liaaaaaar~"

Wednesday tried to grab Enid's finger but failed to do so.

"How old are you again Enid? Because you remind of an elementary student. And I do not lie when I say I can't trust him. He has informations I desperately need but won't give them to me.

-Did you ask nicely?"

Wednesday thought of what happened when she grabbed him by his collar and threatened him.

"I asked nicely... in my way.

-So you threatened him.

-I gave him a choice.

-Between giving you the informations and torturing him.

-I could've skipped the step where I give him a choice and go directly to torturing him but I didn't.

-How nice of you. That's not ironic by the way."

Wednesday bumped into Mickael around a corner.

"Oh sorry young lady. I wasn't looking where I was going."

His eyes widened when he saw Wednesday suddenly going stiff while her head shot back. Managing to catch her just before she could fall to the ground Mickael gently sat her against the wall.

"A psychic?"

Enid nobbed. Wednesday's visions were becoming more and more frequent and Enid was no stranger to them.

Seconds passed before Wednesday came back. She looked straight in Mickael's eyes and got up without a word.

They stared at each-other for a solid minute before Wednesday walked away.

Mickael looked at Enid.

"Is she always like this?

-Most of the time, yes. I'm sorry for her behavior."

She bowed and ran after Wednesday.

"At least one of them is well behaved..."

Mickael sighed. Nevermore was more tiring than he remembered. Especially as a teacher.
