Balter | Wednesday X.T

Chapter 10.

Earth & Moonlight

Standing in Weem's office staying in silence with your twin sister. Both of your belongings packed and placed away by Lurch. Playing with your necklace, you felt relief now. You didn't feel this dread whatsoever. All felt right in the world.

Though your heart will ache missing Nevermore and Jericho. You know you will come back once the new principal arrives and gets situated. For the time being. Xavier planned to come over to your home and spend time with you and your family.

Enid enters the room standing on the other side of your sister. "I hate to admit, but I am gonna miss Principal Weems," the werewolf confesses.

Wednesday spoke a response, "She can be a real pain. But she was tough. And she died for the one thing she truly loved, this school." Wednesday's hand grasps yours, holding it. "For that, I have immense respect."

Enid hums sadly, "And she was one of us."

The three of you turned away and began walking out of the office, heading towards the rest of the school. "Now that classes are canceled for the semester, you both have to come visit me in San Francisco." Enid says with a smile planted on her lips. "I can pretty much guarantee fog and drizzle every day."

"Sounds tempting." Bianca walks past you. "Bianca," your twin calls out. The dark skinned girl turned towards her. "I owe you a thank-you."

Bianca then says, "We're getting that fencing title next you. So don't let one supernatural pilgrim get to your head." She then smiles towards you, snapping twice, you in return snap twice returning the smile.

Wednesday looking up to the second floor notes, "Your boyfriend is staring at me."  You laugh a little, looking up at him, he waves to you both. You in turn wave back. The both of you making your way up the stairs towards him. "I hear you're a free man now." Wednesday speaks firstly.

Xavier clicks his mouth, "Yup. All charges dismissed." He then lifts up a present towards her. "Listen. When I was in the cell I said a lot of... things. Being your friend should come with a warning label. But... I don't know a lot of people who would take an arrow for me. So..." He hands her the black present box. "Welcome to the 21st century, Addams."

Wednesday hesitantly takes it, opening it she sees a black phone. Looking up at him with raised eyebrows. "My numbers in there already."

"That's a bold move knowing you have a girlfriend." She looks him in the eye. "I hope you're not expecting me to call."

Xavier chuckles out, "No, never. I'd settle for a text, though." He acts confused, "You do know what a text is, right?" He tries hiding his smile but fails.

"Goodbye Xavier." She bids before turning away and leaving the both of you there to yourselves.

Xavier smirks as he turns towards you, "You thought I forgot about you?" He then brings out a stuffed panda.

Raising an eyebrow you hum out, "Are you seriously regifting?"

"The tortured artist still has the feminine gift."

You smiled at the line you had come to tell him in the beginning of your school year. Is this why the tortured artists end up dying alone? Because he doesn't allow himself to have feminine gifts? You take the panda into your arms holding it against your chest. "You win Thorpe, you win."

"Clearly."

The both of you began to head towards your car. "Is your dad not here?" You ask him.

He shakes his head, "He's sending someone else." He tells you.

You him in acknowledgement. You place the panda into your side of the car. Your parents or brother not being able to come this time around. Turning to him, you slip your arms around his torso. "My lovely earth that binds me in its gravity." You continue to smile.

He cups your face, too smiling. "See you around... moonlight." He places a soft tender kiss on your lips.

"I must warn you if you do come over to my place, you'd be welcomed with open arms and thrown knives." You then pondered. "Probably be buried alive."

"I guess I'll have to get used to that." He says, pressing another kiss on your forehead.

"Y/n," Your twin ducks her head out of the window. "You're making me nauseous. And not in a good way."

Pulling away from Xavier' you bid him a goodbye and got into your car. He closes the door after you. Waving as your car started to drive off. Watching until you disappeared from his line of sight.
