Chapter 8 | Enid | What Am I Doing Wrong?

Nothing much has happened for the next couple of weeks. Wednesday and I do the occasional hand holding, shared compliments, and even some hugs, but other than that we haven't really been all that touchy. I don't know how to feel about it. And the more I thought, the more I realized, we haven't even made it official yet. What if she doesn't actually like me? Maybe it was the heat of the moment that she felt the need to kiss me because I looked like I wanted to. She just wanted to make me happy. She hasn't given me another kiss since. I understand she isn't the touchy type, but I thought it would change after this.

What am I doing wrong?

"Enid."

I get out of my trance and look up at Wednesday. I'm sitting on my desk trying to study.

"Yeah?" I respond.

"I have to head out. I'm working on a project for one of my classes and I need to meet up with one of my classmates."

I just nod at her, going back to studying. She stands there for a few moments until she finally leaves. I hear the door lightly shut. I didn't want to talk to her right now. I was a little upset. I'm confused about our relationship. And a classmate? Usually she says who she's hanging out with, always mentioning a name. I decided to follow her.

I put on my shoes quickly and searched for her scent. My smelling abilities are above that of a human, so it's easier for me to track people down.

I leave Ophelia hall, sniffing around and following Wednesday's steps.

I managed to walk to the library. I sneakily open the door, looking around to find where Wednesday is. I sniff around and picked up her scent. But then I picked someone else's scent.

Ajax?

I follow where their scents are and I managed to find them. I am on the opposite side of where they are. I see them sitting at a table talking away. Why is Wednesday talking to my ex-boyfriend?

He's talking and she seems to be writing down notes. Maybe this really is just a project. I don't know why I keep overthinking.

I watch them for a bit, then begin to walk out of the library. I walk for a bit until I reach my dorm, opening the door and shutting it semi-loud. I just don't know how to feel, seeing the person I have deep feelings for hanging around my ex who couldn't even break up with me in person.

I decided to get my thoughts out by putting both AirPods in and blasting music while reading, laying in my bed. Most people can't listen to loud music and read at the same time, but I can. It's one of my skills, honestly.

I read about 30 pages and decided that I was done reading. I put the book next to me and I just lay down. I stare at the ceiling for what felt like forever. I'm going to be honest, it gets a little boring without Wednesday in the room.

I look at the time. 7 P.M. I'm not sure how long Wednesday is going to stay out. I stare at the ceiling once more until I heard a door open.

Wednesday walks through the door and quietly closes it. Maybe she thinks I'm asleep. I close my eyes pretending I am.
She walks over to my side of the room. What is she doing? I could feel her presence close to me. She grabs the blankets on my bed and puts one on me, covering my body. I try not to smile. Then I felt her lips on my forehead. This time I really smile.

"Are you awake?" Wednesdays asks surprised. My eyes slowly open and I nod. I could see a light blush on her face. I widen my smile. "Thank you for tucking me in, Wednesday." I say. She nods and walks to her side.

She puts her bag on her desk, then takes off her shoes, and then her coat. She looked so good taking her clothes off. I honestly completely forgot that I was mad at her.
