Chapter 3 | Enid | Nightmare

A week has passed since Wednesday and I met. The school gave all the students a week to adjust because, for some students, they were traumatized to come back after what happened.

"You excited for classes tomorrow?" I ask Wednesday excitedly. She shakes her head. "Oh, come on! I'd expect more knowing you get straight A's." I hear Wednesday sigh. "I get straight A's because I have nothing else to do." She responds. I just hum and shrug.

Wednesday, Yoko, Divina and I went for a girls night out earlier in the week. Well, I practically dragged Wednesday to come with me. At first she refused, but the more I begged and the more puppy eyes I did, she got annoyed and finally complied. It was funny to see.
We went to the café down in Jericho. Tyler doesn't work there anymore. I think the reason why is obvious.
After we finished, Wednesday wanted to go to Uriah's Heap. That place gives me the heebie-jeebies, but Yoko nor Divina wanted to go with her, so I did because I felt bad. Wednesday got a few of those weird dead taxidermy squirrel-rat things. I didn't get anything, obviously.

As I'm laying on my bed, I can hear Wednesday typing on her typewriter. I look over to see. Her back is turned towards me as I stare. I stare at her for a few moments before I noticed she stopped typing. I quickly look away, covering my mouth.

"I'm done writing for now." She says, her back still facing me. I nod as if she can see me. I see her organizing the hundreds of papers she has. She splits every hundred and put paper clips, then stacking one on top of the other. She'd be so pissed if her papers were somehow knocked down. It'd take hours for her to organize them again. I chuckle to myself at the thought of that. "What's so funny?" Wednesday asks, turning around to look at me. "Just thought how funny it'd be if someone were to knock down all of your papers and you had to pick them up one by one to organize them again." Wednesday gives me a glare. I stop smiling and look away. "Whoever would have done it would've gotten tased and pepper sprayed by me." Wednesday replies. I chuckle again. "I'd help." I say quietly, looking at Wednesday once again. She gives a small smile before quickly turning away. I can feel my face heating up, and my heart beating a little faster.

"So, have you gotten your schedule yet?" I ask as I slowly walk to her. Wednesday nods. "Sweet, can I see? I wanna see if we have any classes together." Wednesday nods again, giving me a piece of paper with all of her classes. "Nice! Two classes together!" I say excitedly. Wednesday doesn't react nor respond. I put the paper back next to her on her desk. I see her fold it up following with her putting it in her bag.

I walk back to my side of the room and slammed onto my bed. My face digs into my favorite squishmallow, Santino the Platypus.

It was getting late and I noticed Wednesday getting up from her desk and going to her bed. "You going to sleep?" I ask her. She nods, fluffing her pillow and lifting the covers to put on top of her. "Goodnight, then, Wens." I say. "Don't call me that." I hear her mumble. I smile at her and turn off my light.

"Wednesday?"

I see Wednesday's eyes open immediately. It's currently 3 A.M.

"I-I'm sorry. This is a little awkward, but I had a nightmare and I thought maybe I could sleep with you?" I ask in embarrassment. Wednesday shoots me a glare. I guess that's my hint that the answer is no. I nod my head and start walking back to my side.

"Enid."

I turn around. I watch as Wednesday scoots over, patting the side where she was on so I could go over. I give her a wide smile and walk back to her bed.
I get under the covers and turn to Wednesday, still smiling. She's lying on her back and staring up at the ceiling. I decided to flip around, not facing her. "Don't expect me to keep doing this." Wednesday clarified. I nod.

"Are you going to tell me what your nightmare was about?" She asks quietly. I form a small smile before laying on my back again. It's sweet she cares enough to ask. "Not that I care that it scared you. I just love nightmares." I smile knowing what she means.

"I keep dreaming about the Hyde. About how it almost killed you. It attacking me. It was really traumatic." I can feel the tears forming in my eyes.
Wednesday turns her body towards me. My heart skips a beat. I feel my face heat up. Fuck. Do I like her or something? I haven't felt like this since Ajax.

The too many emotions makes me break into tears. Wednesday continues to look at me and I've never felt so embarrassed in my life. "Sorry." I say with a shaky voice.
I feel a cold hand on my cheek. I turn my face to see Wednesday wiping my tears. She puts her other hand on the other cheek, wiping it as well. She puts her hands back down, but I wish she didn't. "Go back to sleep. We have school tomorrow." She says in a raspy voice. She turns around to face her back towards me and I do the same. My heart's beating too fast.

"Enid." I wake up to Wednesday shaking me. "You were cuddling all over me last night. What the hell?" Wednesday looked upset. I notice I still had my arm wrapped around her. "I'm sorry. I didn't know. I'm a wolf. We love to cuddle." I quickly pull away and get up from the bed. I can hear Wednesday saying things under her breath.

I look at Wednesday's clock and saw that it was 6:30 A.M. exactly. I walk to my side, opening the drawer and pulling out my uniform to change from my PJs.

I head over to the bathroom to change. I get out after around 15 minutes since I had to fix my hair. Wednesday goes into the bathroom next. She takes longer to redo her braids.

She finally comes out. Time: 7:13 A.M. Our first class started at 7:45. "Ready?" I ask Wednesday. She nods and we head out the door.
