The Curse

Chapter 2: chapter 2

Chapter Text

“Yes.”

It hung in the air between them. Wednesday gripped the railing until her knuckles whitened.

“Y-you love me?”

“I don’t like repeating myself, Sinclair,” It lacked the bite she usually had. It sounded tired. She closed her eyes. Enid was quiet for a minute before joining her. Neither of them said anything for a while and Wednesday accepted her fate.

To say Enid was on cloud nine right now would be the understatement of the century. Her thoughts were racing with words that wouldn’t come out and she was nearly shaking with adrenaline.

But Wednesday didn't need her over-energetic rambling right now. She glanced to her friend, tracing her features.

“I thought you were mad at me,” Enid chuckled nervously, meeting Wednesday's attentive gaze,” Thing kept telling me you weren't but…That night. I never felt so angry in my life. Just the idea of you being hurt- it killed me Willa.” she tried to smile. She felt her cheeks growing wet and watched Wednesday's brows furrow.

“I even transformed! And when we got back to the dorm-”

“Get to the point, Enid.”

Enid shook her head,” I gotta get this out ok? That night you patched me up I don’t know exactly what language that was-”

“Italian.”

“And I don’t know what any of that meant but you said everything so softly I never felt so safe with someone in my life. Even before the battle, you always made me feel safe. Even when you insult my music-”

“It’s atrocious,” Wednesday commented. Enid’s hands were definitely shaking now. That playful lilt was back.

“ I’ve never felt like I’d die without someone,” She made a bold move and reached for Wednesday’s hand. She let her and Enid smiled,” I’d die for you, Addams. I’ve never felt this way for anyone- not even Ajax. You're special to me, Wednesday, beyond words. I-I love you too.”

They stared at one another for a long time. Wednesday’s hands tightened and she moved closer, eyes calculated and so bright under the moon. Enid raised her free hand to her cheek. Just like she’d done to her that night.

She watched Wednesday bite her lip, raising her hand hesitantly to do the same. When a tear made its way out she gently thumbed it away,” Μην κλαις αγάπη μου,” She doesn't know what possessed her with the confidence to unlink their hands and cup her face completely.

But she was forever thankful, “C-can I kiss you, Wednesday Addams?”

Wednesdays hands did the same. “Yes-mph!”

There lips unceremoniously smooched together and Enid giggled in pure euphoria. She felt herself being pulled closer and felt the undeniable smile forming on her roommate's face. When they pulled away she was awestruck.

Wednesday Addams was smiling at her. It slips out before she could even think it,” You’re gorgeous.”

In response, she pulled her back by the wrists and kissed her again when they pulled apart she whispered,” Come te, cara mia.”

Enid didn't know what that meant but going off the way she said it she’ll take it as good and gave her a long-awaited hug, tucking her face into her neck and shoulder. She didn't even notice she was crying until Wednesday began whispering sweet nothings into her ear and rubbing her back.

“Don't leave me like that again,” she pulled away only to steal another kiss,” If you put me through this again I swear ill hide your blade collection.”

An unbearable softness found its way into Wednesday's eyes and she nearly melted on the spot,” Ti amo con tutto il cuore, ill mio tesoro. Qualunque cosa desideri, te la concederò”

“I have no idea what you're saying.”

A hand slipped to hold her lower back and pull her closer. Enid was definitely redder than a tomato right now. “Until the end of our days, I will do everything in my power to make you happy.”

“O-ok casanova-”

She never got to finish that sentence. But it was definitely worth it.
