Opposites attract

Another movie night

Wednesday's pov:

Enid walks up to me as I watch my parents drive away.
-"crazy weekend huh?"
She asks with a slight smile.
-"indeed"
I reply. I think for a moment.
-"did you fix things with your mom?"
-"um yeah. Yeah I think so"
She says nodding her head. I smile a bit but quickly hid it.
-"great. Shall we celebrate?"
Enid's eyes widen and blush covers her cheeks.
-"we..could do a movie night"
I say looking away as I feel my face heat up.
-"yes! I-I mean yeahhh that sounds fun"
-"great I shall see you tonight"
I say still covering my face and walking off.

Enid's pov:

So I've got a movie hang out with my roomie tonight...that's cool that's cool..
So why the hell can't I concentrate on anything else!? Ughhhhh I need Yoko. I text Yoko and ask to meet up and she tells me to meet her at the quad.
-"so what's the situation?"
Yoko asks while taking a seat under a tree.
-"ughh"
I say, dramatically collapsing on the grass under the tree next to Yoko.
-"I don't even know, like I like Ajax right? I have since last year. And like even when I didn't like him I've always liked boys! But now there's Wednesday and-"
Yoko then spits her drink out.
-"you like Wednesday!?"
She exclaims.
-"No! Yes? No...maybe?"
I reply awkwardly. I then sigh.
-"just..Wednesdays really pretty right? And she's cool so maybe it's normal to be a little flustered by her? Yeahhh..yeah that's it. This is platonical"
I say thinking.
-"Enid."
Yoko says sternly. I look up at her.
-"platonical? Really? Come on Enid, it's not a bad thing to admit you have a crush"
I bite my lip and think for a moment.
-"I-I mean I guess not.."
Yoko looks at my sympathetically and places her hand on my shoulder.
-"I mean come to terms with your feelings, there's no need to rush anything after all. But maybe talk to her?"
For some reason my eyes start to water.
-"y-yeah I-I can do that"
I say with a smile as the tears roll down my face. Yoko then pulls me into a hug and I try to stop my tears. Why is this so hard?

Wednesday's pov:

*aren't you making this harder on yourself?*
Thing signs.
-"I don't know what your talking about"
I say as I hang my clothes up.
*oh yes you do!*
-"I like Tyler!"
I yell in response.

Enid's pov:

As I reach the door to the dorm I hear Wednesday yell. "I like Tyler!" I hear her say and I back my hand away from the door.
-"uh o-oh..right I forgot about that.."
I say in a slight whisper as I start walking away in tears yet again.

Wednesday's pov:

Thing shakes himself to say "no".
*so you like Tyler?*
-"yes."
*Enid's not attractive to you at all?*
-"nope"
I say shaking my head like a child.
*so her hair doesn't make you wanna squeal? Her eyes don't strike you, and her smell doesn't turn you on? Oh and let's not forget about those adorable freckles of hers*
I start blushing intensely.
-"ugh how dare you betray me like this"
I say, annoyed. Still blushing.
-"nevertheless of how I feel I think me and Enid deserve a chill night together"

Enid's pov:

As I'm playing with my hair under the shade of an oak tree Ajax comes up to me. He tilts his head and smiles.
-"hey kitty cat"
I laugh.
-"kitty cat?"
-"just a new nickname I'm trying out"
He says with a laugh. He then takes a seat next to me.
-"so what's up?"
He asks.
-"nothing"
-"nah that can't be it, somethin's buggin ya"
He says with a playful nudge. I smile and blush a bit.
-"oh nothing really, I'm just bummed about..my mom I guess"
-"oh yeah I get that"
He says putting his arm around me.
-"yeah"
-"but you know what?"
He says turning to look at me, his arm still around me.
-"hm?"
I ask looking up at him.
-"I'm here"
He says with a smile. I think about how Wednesday likes Tyler and how Ajax is such a great guy and perfect match for me.
-"yeah..you are"
I say with a smile as I lay my head on him. This is good...
I have a good best friend and I have a good almost boyfriend. Things are good.

Wednesday's pov:

-"let's see how did Enid set all this up.."
I say thinking to my self.
-"ok, hot chips here like Enid likes"
I say placing a bowl down.
-"and..popcorn"
I say placing another bowl down.
-"hmm..now how to work this thing"
I say picking up Enid's laptop. I tap it excessively but it refuses to work.
-"work you mechanical beast"
I say shaking it around some more.
-"the hell are you doing?"
I hear Enid ask while laughing. I blush from embarrassment and clear throat.
-"your laptop won't work"
She laughs and walks over. She taps a little button and the screen turns on.
-"oh."
Enid laughs some more.
-"don't worry I know technology isn't really your strong suit"
She then looks around a bit.
-"awww Wednesday! You set up the room?"
I start blushing some more and nod my head bashfully.
-"aww how sweet!"
She says attempting to hug me but I stick my hand out to stop her.
-"one day I'm gonna get that hug"
She says with a childish glare.

Enid's pov:

I move the bean bags over to my carpet.
-"um no."
I hear Wednesday say.
-"hm?"
-"I don't wanna sit where you and Ajax disgustingly made out"
My face flashes red from embarrassment.
-"right..sorry. Um..where can we sit then?"
Wednesday usually doesn't like anyone on her side of the room. She thinks for a moment.
-"we...can sit on my bed"
I feel my self start blushing harder. Jesus calm down Enid she's just a friend!
-"o-oh ok! Yeah that works"
She sits on her bed and pats for me to sit next to her.
-"y-yeah"
I say speed walking over.
-"what movie should we watch?"
-"I don't really care so long as we have a good time"
She replies. Ugh why the hell is she so sweet sometimes!?
-"oh how 'bout Hachi?"
-"is it any good?"
She asks.
-"I've never seen it"
-"alright then yeah let's try it"

(1 hour and 30 minutes later)

Wednesday's pov:

-"whaaaaa ahhh"
-"shh there there Enid"
I say patting her head and letting her lay on me.
-"b-but but he died!!"
She says in uncontrollable tears.
-"yes yes I know"
She continued to cry until eventually falling asleep. I smile as I look down at her. It's so hard not to like Enid when me and her keep having little moments like this. I sigh.
-"fuck. Forgive me Enid, I'm sorry for how I am"
I whisper as I gently kiss her forehead. She moves slightly but then nuzzles closer.
