wednesday woke up moody than usual, eyebags darker than ever and soulless eyes glaring at everything and everyone since the second they were opened. adding up to the fact that she woke up late and did not even had the time to braid her hair properly. all this because of a certain wolf that came back to room late last night, messed up her sleep schedule and lessened her sleep hours.
enid was out until 2am, possibly at ajax’s last night. wednesday stayed up because she knew her annoying roommate was never this late. not that she cared or anything like that. she did not bit an eye until she was sure she heard the noise of careful opening of the door and quickly pretended like she was asleep
wednesday walked into the bathroom to see enid putting on her makeup while looking in the mirror. the sight was not unfamiliar but the unusual thick layer of foundation on her skin, was. enid seeing the goth in the reflection, grinned widelyÂ
“morning wens!”
“good morning”
wednesday made her way to the mirror and tried making herself presentable for the school later. brushing her teeth and washing her face before standing next to enid and putting some mascara on. wednesday glanced at enid who was still perfecting her make up and glazed at her features. wednesday narrowed her eyes at enid’s cheek which had more foundation than any other part of her face.Â
“enid”
“hm?”
enid hummed but didn’t turn her head around and rather focused on the reflection of herself in the mirror. she was strangely quiet and as much wednesday enjoyed peace she knew something was wrong
wednesday sighed and cupped enid’s face with her arm, turning her head around to face her and grabbing a wet napkin from the table.Â
“w-wait wednesday”
enid tried stopping wednesday, stepping back from wednesday’s grasp but wednesday ignored her, stepped forward and wiped side of enid’s face with the wet napkin. revealing the bruised, blue cheek.
both of the girls fell silent. wednesday was intensely staring at enid and enid was doing anything to avoid looking at her in the eyes
“is this why you were late last night?”
wednesday knew about her feelings towards the latter for a while now. though she never admitted loving enid she never hid her dislike towards ajaxs either. always rolling her eyes at the mention of him and making a disgusted face at sight of the couple. the only reason she never did anything about her feelings were the thought of enid being happy and if it took her suffering and seeing ajax and enid together then so be it.Â
but now that was simply not the option anymore.Â
“was it him?”
“wednesday calm down, it was just an accident. he didn’t mean it”
“so it was him.”Â
wednesday lowered her hands and and exited the bathroom. enid followed right after, trying to stop wednesday and calm her down. it was an attemptÂ
“i’m not gonna waste my time on someone so irrelevant, stop jumping on my nerves”
enid looked somewhat relieved at the goth girl’s words but still looked at her with suspicion eyes which was responded with roll of eyes
“hurry up, we are already late”
enid watched as wednesday closed the door after her and let out a stressed sigh. rubbed her puffy eyes from yesterday’s tears and went back to getting ready

ajax let out a groan at the pain from his head as he slowly opened his eyes and looked around the room. he was tied to a chair with his hands also tied on the arms of the chair, he could barely move. he had no idea why or how he even ended up here
the last thing he remembered was walking out of the class before someone pulled him aside. then he just felt really bad pain on his head and his eyesight went dark and blurry. he winced at the pain before trying to focus on his surroundings
he was in a small room, full of paintings and tools, but that was just what he could see since the light didn’t reach the rest of the roomÂ
“you are finally awake”
his head flipped around at the voice, trying to see where it was coming from but failing until person who that voice belonged to stepped into the light, revealing herself.
ajax’s eyes widened in shock and confusion, did wednesday addams just kidnap him?
“what the hell? what am i doing here?!”
wednesday narrowed her eyes at the boy “i think you know”
the boy fell silent before his eyes widened and wednesday smirked “you do”
“you know it’s really none of your business, right?”
wednesday didn’t answer him, instead walked around him. standing behind him, laying her hands on his shoulders and leaning down to his ears, she whispered “have you ever heard about the addams family curse?”
she felt him shiver and chuckled
“the curse was created long long ago and has been hunting us ever since. addams only ever falls in love once and forever and when that happens, god forbid anyone get in between them and their loved one. love becomes our biggest weakness and strength. and you know, i really tried to not act like a psychopath that we become once in love and just be happy for her”
wednesday pulled her hands away from the now scared boyÂ
“but patience can only last so long and you didn’t appreciate just what i was giving up and suffering for”
wednesday slowly made her way towards the small table and unzipped the bag that laid on it, revealing the various amount of weapons of all different kinds and sizesÂ
“at first, i was mad at myself for not putting you six feet under the ground the day you first revealed your pathetic, abusive personality. then, i was mad at enid for putting up with a buffon like you. i was furious because she deserved so much better than that. than how you treated her.”
“but then i realized, the blame was yours to take. i just wished to see her happy and you never saw the privilege you were provided with by being able to hold her, kiss her, love her when i could have been doing that so much better than you ever did, could or ever done. i could have put up with that, force myself to not do anything about it just for the sake of her happiness but then you decided to dare to lay your filthy, pathetic hand on her and the thin string of my nerve, that i was holding on to, popped”
wednesday pulled out thick and old looking anvil lopper from her bag thatÂ
ajax’s face quickly went pale at the sight. sweat dripping on his face. he tried to free himself from the chair. she could see the tears of fear that were forming in his eyes
“w-wednesday, don’t do this. i’m never gonna touch her or even look her way, i swear! PLEASE”
wednesday approached the boy with the weapon in one hand and straightened his fingers on the chair by adding pressure with her hand on it
she smiled
“do not worry, i will make sure you won’t be able to.”
