TW: Near-Rape

Waverly and Champ were sat at Champ's kitchen table, working on their project; Waverly was attempting to make a bunch of nucleotide models to stick together and Champ, well, wasn't really doing much.

"Champ, please could you help me with this?" Waverly asked.

"You know, I was thinking... would you like to go watch a movie with me on Friday, Waverly?" Champ asked.

"Like- tomorrow, Friday?"

"Yeah."

"Oh- uh... I would have to check with my sister but uh- sure, yeah." Waverly stuttered a lot in a desperate attempt to cover up how flustered she was.

Champ just smiled back to Waverly "okay, great."

Then they both went back to their project. Although, it was still pretty much just Champ watching Waverly do all of the work.

Before Waverly knew it, the time was 9 at night and she hadn't even been home since this morning so she decided that she had done enough work for the day and it was time to head home.

"Bye Champ! I'll see you tomorrow." Waverly yelled as she left his house to walk home.

It wasn't exactly a long walk, but since it was late at night it was pretty cold and Waverly was shivering at the frigid surroundings. She was pretty sure that she was about to get frostbite considering she got cold easily anyways and wasn't even in warm clothes since she was at school and had no idea she would be out this late.

Luckily, however, she heard a distant "Waverly!" Behind her but she had mostly assumed it was maybe Champ to walk her home, but to her surprise, it was Nicole.

"Oh! H-hi, Nicole." Waverly said when the red head caught up to her.

"What are you doing out here? Aren't you freezing?" Nicole asked.

"Oh, I was with Champ doing our science project."

"Champ Hardy?"

"How did you know?"

"He was in my grade but he got kept back or something, I don't really know him that well." Nicole admitted.

"O-oh, well, he's nice to me." Waverly stated.

"Nice enough to let you freeze out here in the cold, huh?"

And before Waverly knew it Nicole's coat was being put around her shoulders and a jolt of warmth shot through her entire body.

"Nicole, I can't let you give me your coat. You'll freeze!" Waverly said, although in reality she wished that this moment wouldn't end.

Nicole just stood there, staring, for a moment. She then started rubbing the tips of her arms to keep herself warm.

"I'll be fine, Waverly, let's just get you home."

And with that, they spent the next 20 minutes making small talk with each other to get to know one another a little more.

When Waverly was returned safe and sound to her home, she handed Nicole's coat back to her with a quick 'thank you' and then Nicole was heading back to her own home.

However, Friday rolled around and Nicole, Waverly, Alex, Kara and Lena were all in school, once again. However, Kara, Lena and Waverly were sat in their own table before school started.

"Do the both of you want to stay over at my house tonight? I think think it'd be nice after the first week." Kara asked, messing with the sleeve on her shirt.
