11. sleepy

Enid's POV

Normally, I wouldn't pay it any mind because it's usually how she is, but I've noticed that Wednesday moved a lot more slower each day. When she would try to work on her novel, she would type super slow, and it concerned me, because I didn't know if she was getting a lot of sleep every day.

"Willa, are you okay? You've been moving a lot more slowly lately."

Wednesday, of course, brushed it off.

"I am fine, Enid. I told you to stop worrying over me, it annoys me."

Yeah, yeah. Sue me for being worried about you. I shrugged it off and walked with her through her day, observing her movements. She could barely walk forward, and I had to catch her before she fell. I watched as she dozed off and immediately jerked back awake, much to my amusement. I have to admit, Wednesday was kinda cute when she was sleepy, I could actually talk to her and not get a snippy comment in return. 

Somehow, we made it to our dorm, and I wanted to test a theory. I grabbed Wednesday and asked her if she wanted to watch a movie together.

"It'll be fun! And besides, I know you've been extremely annoyed with everything lately, so I think it's time for a girl's night in."

As expected, I didn't get a response from Wednesday, so I turned around and saw her ever so slightly dozing off on her bed. God, she was so cute...

"Willa? Did you hear what I said?"

Wednesday let out an adorable snort as she jarred herself awake.

"Huh? Y-yes, I suppose a movie will do, Enid. It is not like I can refuse. But please do not put on another one of those dreadful romantic comedies, I may actually stab you."

Ouch, but fair. I set up my computer and waited for Wednesday to cuddle up next to me. She's been a lot more open with letting me touch and hug her, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't set this up so I could sneak another kiss from her. Or maybe have her fall asleep in my arms so I Can hear that adorable little snore of hers that she threatens me not to make fun of.

"Are you comfy, Willa?"

Wednesday sleepily nodded as I smirked. Perfect.

"Hey, Willa?"

Wednesday didn't move, but let out a grunt. I guess she was listening.

"I love you... I'm in love with you..."

Wednesday grunted again.

"Enid, I know this. You told me this after we returned from the battlefield. I think I recall telling you I was in love with you as well. We are dating, are we not?"

I grinned, just wanted to make sure you were listening, Wednesday. 

"Can you say it back to me?"

"I love you, Enid. I am in love with you..."

We barely got through like, half the movie before I felt Wednesday snuggle up to me, dozing off to sleep as I closed the computer down and laid down next to her, kissing her lips lightly.

"Good night, cara mia. I love you."
