Month 7 Pt 2
"I'm sure mother and father will be pleased about that." Enid had become accustomed to reading between the lines, and a part of her screamed that Wednesday, Wednesday was pleased by the idea that Enid would always be around.
"I need to tell you something." Wednesday's attention was almost immediately devoted entirely to Enid, there werewolf opening her mouth to continue,
"It's about the baby's father-," Wednesday was stood almost at attention she wanted to know the name of the boy responsible for Enid's current condition and then abandoning her to deal with her awful family,
"It's-," She was interrupted when Lilith came bounding in with packages in hand, calling out for Enid,
"Enid, come look what I got for the baby." Enid looked over at Lilith smiling, before turning apologetically toward Wednesday,
"We'll finish this later yeah?" Wednesday nodded but she felt a tug at her heart while watching Enid walk away from her.
Lilith might have been right she conceded maybe this feeling were from Enid, or about her at the very least. Although she'd never admit that, admitting defeat was weakness and she wasn't weak, not with Enid.
Lilith and Enid were fast friends, much to Wednesday's chagrin of course. Lilith reminded Enid so much of her friends from Nevermore and Lilith, well she loved tormenting Wednesday and the pregnant pup was somewhat easy to be around.
But what she loved most was the shopping that came with the pregnancy, Morticia of course loved doting on Enid, she was of course the object of Wednesday's affections which meant she was a part of the family.
As this baby would be. A new baby Addams, that was cause for celebration. She just needed Wednesday to admit her feelings for Enid and for her to make Enid an Addams.
They are young she would give them that, but an Addams loves only once in their life. It reaches their very souls and possesses their every movement, every thought.
And well she knew from experience what that felt like to have a love that possessed you so completely.
Enid Addams, that sounded right, and Morticia knew it was only a matter of time but she just wished that someone would lock them in an iron maiden together and force them to talk about it.
Everyone in the house but them thought it, Wednesday someone infamous for her lack of emotion crumbled at the sight and mention of Enid.
And the only thing lately that would distract Enid from the sadness that came from her mother's rejection was the mention or sight of Wednesday.
It was like watching two skittish cheetahs attempting to mate. A complete and utter shit show.
But it wasn't like the two were being at all subtle, Enid nearly fell down the stairs case and what does Wednesday do?
Wednesday Addams the definition of touch me and you die and touch makes my skin crawl? She catches her and refuses to let her go until they reach the bottom step.
They were playing Pictionary, but with words instead of pictures and still, nothing.
"Lilith you didn't have to do all this for me." Lilith waved her off, like 55 thousand dollars was nothing.
"It's nothing really, if anything I should be thanking you this was a great session of retail therapy for me, which is the only kind of therapy I will attempt." Enid smiled as she opened, gushed over and folded clothes.
This baby, they were being spoiled, but Enid couldn't help the sinking feeling that settled in her chest.
What if when Wednesday finds out she gets mad at Enid for not telling her, or she doesn't want anything to do with her and the baby.
What if she ruins her brother one chance at having a family with good parents because of her feelings and situations.
"I know, y'know that the baby is Wednesday's, I don't know how but-," Enid cut her off her eyes wide with panic,
"You can't tell Wednesday." Lilith sighed, but she nodded regardless,
"Of course, but Wednesday she's not all that bad and she won't condemn you for something that wasn't your fault." Enid nodded she knew that of course she did, but logical Enid had taken a vacation, for the time being.
"I know she's not that bad, she's amazing actually and she cares about people in her own way, but what if she wants nothing to do with the baby? I care about her so much, but this baby, I'd-," It was Lilith's turn to cut her off,
"Choose them every time?" Enid nodded, and Lilith smiled, "I know it's why despite everything I know you're going to be an amazing mom to my future niece or nephew."
"Wednesday my little scorpion, what are you doing?" Wednesday frozen before continuing her ministrations,
"Building a crib." Moritica nodded, she could see that,
"I can see that but why? You know lurch could do it." Wednesday shook her head,
"No, I want to do it." She didn't elaborate further, she didn't need to Morticia understood immediately.
Wednesday wasn't good at expressing her feelings, she resorted to actions and even if Enid didn't know it this was Wednesday telling Enid that she was responsible, capable and she would always do her best for their child.
"Very well, I trust you will be joining us for dinner?" Wednesday nodded,
"Of course provided that I finish this in time."
"Oh and don't worry, Wednesday's building the crib." Enid paused,
"Wednesday's building the crib?" Lilith nodded although she was only truly paying half of her attention to Enid.
"Yeah, the instructions were in Italian so she had Lurch take the box to her room so she could build it, she insisted actually. Apparently she can't trust anyone else and their mediocracy with something so important for the baby."
The closet was fucking glass, well not actually it wasn't it was a dark pine, something that Wednesday also built.
Wednesday was building the crib, and Enid melted a bit inside.
