In Denial

She was beautiful. Mesmerising. Absolutely charming. Incredibly disarming and all together Perfect. But that didn't mean she wanted to couple up with her. She just enjoyed being around her is all.

Enid Sinclair. The bane and reason for Wednesday's continued existence on this wretched planet. She would never have guessed that such a positive, happy, upbeat person could make her feel so ... Content. But she loved being around Enid. Going on adventures with Enid. Eating with Enid. Talking to Enid. Sitting in silence with Enid. Everything and Anything as long as it was with Enid.

But she was never allowed to be the one to initiate such communications. Another reason she seemed to like being around her was that she never had to show interest yet Enid would drag her along to whatever activity sparked her interest that day. And of course Wednesday had no choice but to follow. Enid needed her... For ... Protection. She was so innocent and full of life and the Addams girl knew how cruel and dark the world could be. She vowed to always shield the blonde from all things painful and or traumatising, ever since the first spark of feelings hit Wednesday the day Enid had embraced her.

So when Enid burst into their shared dorm in a hyperactive happiness spree jumping on Wednesdays bed to wake her up, she didn't immediately attempt to murder her but instead indulged the Blonde.

"Wednesdayyyyy wake uuuuuup" she howled, bouncing up and down on the bed like she was on a pogo stick.

This prompted the Addams girl to shoot up and turn towards the feral half wolf that was on the verge of howling and scratching at the sheets beneath.

"Do you have no sense of personal space Piccola Lupa?" she somewhat groggily woke up, rubbing her temples to soothe the impending headache that threatened her pain receptors. Enid had become accustomed to Wednesday's continued nicknames for her but she never really understood what they meant. Among the lot of Italian, French and Spanish affirmations she never even looked them up. At first she had just assumed the Addams girl was hurling insults her way considering she would usually do it in the privacy of their dorm after Enid had been mildly(or moderately) irritating.

The one time she had absentmindedly asked Yoko what "Cucciola" meant she was startled by Wednesday popping up behind her, dangerously close, whispering "Puppy" in her ear. This prompted Enid never to ask again. It confused her too much, made her feel things that she knew were perilous and would make for a treacherous journey ahead in thier "Friendship". So she chose to just enjoy the little terms of endearment without reading too much into it.

"Nope" she popped the 'P' and grinned widely at Wednesday, flashing her fangs and causing the girl to admittedly forgive her without a second thought.

"What is it, Enid?" She asked now fully conscious and more aware of how she presented herself to her werewolf roommate.

"It's the annual Nevermore Fair! And I signed us up for set up crew" she beamed as if she had just told Wednesday she won the lottery.

"What on Earth would prompt you to do that?" She furrowed her brow in confusion, bewildered as to why Enid was so excited about a foolish school fair.

"Wens you know I love getting involved in school activities" she jumped off of Wednesday's legs and knelt beside her on the bed.

"Yes but why would you involve me?" She asked "You know I would rather cover myself in birdseed and hang myself from the nearest tree to allow the crows to peck out my eyeballs, than participate in school activities" she vividly explained, prompting a grunt from Enid while her face twisted into one of disgust. This only caused Wednesday to smirk at the girl's reaction.

"Graphic depictions of your death aside..." She shook the thought from her brain and continued "You have to do it Wednesday" she reasoned weakly.

"I think you're mistaken I don't have to do anything" she said as a matter of factly. This girl would be the death of Wednesday she was sure of it. As even the early wake up call, the invading of her personal space and the admission of forcing her into a mind numbing social event that she had already planned to avoid, she still wasn't mad at her. She even considered it for a split second and had to force the compulsion away with a weak grunt.

"Wednesdaaaaaay you do! We do everything together" her smile faltered a little bit she was still not disparaged.

"Not everything" Wednesday spoke rather defensively as if spending time with Enid willingly was forbidden.

"Well... enough things" Enid shrugged.

"Irrelevant" Wednesday spoke plainly but this didn't seem to deter the wolf in any way. In fact it only challenged her to try even harder for her attention, a toxic trait she knew she had but always found a way to justify it.

"Come ooooon" she whined grabbing Wednesday and shaking her a little much to the pigtailed girl's dismay. She just drifted, a deadeye stare past Enid's face trying to contemplate why she was allowing the blonde to touch her.

When Wednesday disassociated, Enid moved her own face into the girls eyeline and begged "Pleeeeaaaaase" she used her best puppy dog stare, her eyes practically glistening as she looked into Wednesday's wide eyes.

Wednesday sighed and Enid was sure she had succeeded until she watched her eyes flick away from Enid's as she said "No." Bluntly

"For me?" She blinked rapidly and dramatically moving her face to once again be in view of Wednesday.

"Enid you can't just say For me everytime and expect me to agree to your terms" she scolded the wolf with no empathy.

"Why not? It's worked up until now" she winked proudly and had to suppress the giggle that rose up in the back of her throat.

"That's alarming" Wednesday mumbled this to herself and was unable to stop the cluster of thoughts that swirled around in her brain, trying to explain her tolerance of her roommate.

Enid huffed out irritated but she had a plan B so it was ok "Listen you need to anyway for you're community service this would count for 6 hours at least annnnnd you will have me to keep you company" she raised her eyebrows hopeful for an agreeable response.

"Hmm ...I suppose" Wednesday gritted her teeth as she begrudgingly agreed.

"Yay! Let's go" she jumped off the bed resuming her hyperactive happy state she previously adhered too.

"Am I atleast permitted to change first?" She asked, a slight hint of sarcasm evident in her tone.

"Oh right of course!" She chuckled "See you down there!" She yelled as she ran out the door, letting it slam shut behind her

"Urrrgh" Wednesday allowed herself to let out a groan as she fell back on the bed.

Enid Sinclair. She will be the death of Wednesday Addams.

...

"There's no way she's coming" Yoko laughed handing Enid a piece of rope to connect to the metal pole. She skipped towards it looking over her shoulder and saying

"Don't be so negative" making a fake angry face at her vampire bestie.

"I thought you'd like it seeing as your type is negative, blood and people" Yoko winked "Paired with dark humoured goth girls with serious issues I thought you'd appreciate it" she teased as Enid returned to her side.

"Is not!" She defended but her voice came out rather squeaky as she lied through her fangs.

"Yeah sorry I gotta side with Yoko on this one" Divina chimed in after overhearing the conversation as she approached the two. She draped her arm over Yoko's shoulder placing a kiss on her cheek in greeting them, holding her fist out for Enid to fist bump while still attached to Yoko's side.

Enid being the overly affectionate person she is slapped her fist away "Get that away from me" she laughed then dived at Divina attacking her with a hug. She knew Divina enjoyed her hugs and only didn't go for one because she was obsessed with being close to Yoko.

"Oof!" The siren let out before smiling while shaking her head at the overly hyper werewolf girl.

"Okay please release my girlfriend from you're overly affectionate ass" Yoko jokingly demanded trying to pry Enid's arms off a currently suffocated Divina.

"Jealous?" Enid turned her head, not letting go out of pure spite and giggling lightly.

"No" she scoffed "buuuuut she might be" Yoko pointed behind Enid at the small shadowy figure that glided toward them.

"Wednesday you came!" She ran excitedly towards her as she usually did but stopped before she was unable to control the urge to hug her lovingly.

"Of course Pup" She smirked, giving her a small nod to recognise her roommates restraint in not man handling her.

Yoko practically choked in shock "What did you just call her?!" Her vampire ears pricked up at the nickname.

Wednesday's eyes widened. She had been so distracted by Enid's violently happy approach and sickeningly sweet smile that she hadn't even realised that the other 2 girls could hear her.

Divina slapped her girlfriend and gave her a little disapproving look. "Ow! What?" She gritted her teeth at her girlfriend. Wednesday chose this distraction to divert the conversation, she had had one to many slip ups lately when it came to Enid and she needed to be more cautious and aware of her uncontrollable impulses she had recently acquired.

"I'm here Enid" she emphasised her name slightly, scolding herself in her own head at her blatant lack of resistance. Yoko smirked at this as Wednesday continued "What do you require of me?" She flicked her eyes to Yoko in order to observe whether the vampire was going to push the issue before returning to Enid's gaze.

"A smile" Yoko snorted again, earning another disapproving look from Divina as she crossed her arms.

"In your nightmares" Wednesday deadpanned and then let out a little noise as Enid grabbed her wrist and led her to the rest of the fair to give her a job to do.

"You need to cool it" Divina laughed as she watched Enid drag Wednesday to her worst nightmare. The two hung back for a minute to give their friends some alone time.

"With what?" She shrugged and rolled her eyes at the brunette. Of course everyone at Nevermore were rooting for Wednesday and Enid to finally admit thier feelings for one another, especially the entire friendship group. And lately Wednesday was being just as obvious as Enid was in her own little way. This wasn't the first time she had been caught by outsiders calling Enid by an affectionate nickname or allowing her to make physical contact with her person.

"You know what" She booped Yoko on the nose faking a mad face.

"Babe they are so clueless sometimes" Yoko threw her head back to the sky in annoyance "Like come ooooon" she mumbled "Remember last week!" She practically yelled remembering back

Flashback*

It was lunchtime and the usual lot were enjoying eachothers company, except Wednesday who just ignored the chaotic good around her.
Enid skipped towards the lunch table a bright smile on her face and once reaching her destination she leaned down and draped her arms over Wednesday's shoulder in a tame show of affection. She knew she shouldn't. Wednesday had talked to her about this ... Only ever in private but she was in such a good mood after her talk with Wednesday the night before that she didn't care.

"Hows my dark-spirited friend today?" She lightly teased. The word 'friend' causing a little comfort to wash over Wednesday. This was fine. This was normal. They were friends.
She took a small but deep breath in then looked up at Enid saying

"Very well Mon Chiot and You?" Very prepared to deal with the fallout of not scolding Enid for her casual show of affection.

"I'm great!" she bounced on her toes still giddy

"What the F-" Bianca accidentally spoke her thoughts aloud, mouth agape trying to make sense of what she had just witnessed, along with everyone else at the table.
Wednesday's ear pricked up at the low mumble from the siren and she smirked

"Problem?" She queried raising an eyebrow at the dumbfounded girl.

Bianca had to compose herself in order to deflect the stutter that reared its ugly head as she said "You-" she breathed rethinking her sentence ""She's touching you?" She questioned pointing at Enid and then scanning her eyes across to Divina, Yoko and Kent for support. They all kind of awkwardly tried not to get involved worried about what Wednesday would do. " And did you just call her a pet name?" She then looked towards Ajax, Xavier and Eugene instead but again they all followed suit and just nervously averted thier eyes.

"I have no idea what you're talking about" Wednesday spoke plainly, ready to shoot down any attempt Bianca made at bringing attention to the earlier display.

"You're kidding you just-" she began but was rudely interrupted again by Wednesday.

"You must be hearing and seeing things Barclay" she spoke as if daring her to try again "How troubling" she feined concern.

"Yeah totally seeing things" Enid agreed before taking a life threatening risk by leaning down to plant small kiss on Wednesdays cheek casually before skipping off happily, leaving everyone at the table confused and unsure of how to handle the situation.

The Addams Girl was absolutely seething with rage for a spilt second as she felt everyone's eyes at the table on her awaiting her reaction. They were obviously expecting a somewhat graphic attempt a bodily harm or atleast some very violent words. Instead, the lingering feeling of Enid's soft lips drew out her loving and compassionate side because that feeling, THE feeling was incredible enough to block out her need to be perceived as threatening and unstable to those around her and she settled.
She was pulled from the abyss that was her thoughts of Enid when Bianca started to say "What?! She just-"

So rather than admit that what had happened was not a hallucination, she chose to further gaslight Bianca by saying "Honestly Bianca you should really see someone about that" only remaining at the table to insure none of her friends would have a chance to discuss what had just occured. Instead of making a swift bad dramatic exit she sat thee unbothered while the rest of the group exchanged suspicious looks

Present day*

"Yes I'm aware babe but we need to let them get there on their own" Divina chuckled pulling Yoko from her thoughts. The two girls had had plenty of conversations regarding Wednesday and Enid's complete obliviousness to each others pining. It always made them laugh how obvious it was that they loved one another and of course it made for an interesting bet between the queer ladies as well.

Yoko grinned mischievously, contemplating all the ways she could meddle in their affairs.She felt like it was the right time.

"On. Their. Own. Yoko." Divina chided knowing exactly what her devious girlfriend was thinking. Honestly she was almost as uncontrollable as Wednesday when it came to her impulses.

"Don't Yoko me" she grimaced at the use of her name rather than the reaffirming 'babe' she would usually receive.

"I will Yoko you if I wanna Yoko you" she placed her hand on her hip, pulling away from the vampire to tilt her head and challenge her.

The vampire just but her lip trying to tame the beast within "Fuck You" Yoko decided to say but couldn't stop the smile that tugged at her lips.

"Please do" Divina winked flirtatiously. She then granted the vampire a lingering kiss before moving towards their friends to help set up the fair.

Yoko just stared after her slightly stunned at the response before coming to her senses and trailing after her. "Hey Wait up!" She yelled still slightly drunk on Divina's touch.
