Wednesday's pov:

As I look over at Enid's side of the room I notice a little glass container under Enid's random metal flamingo. I go to pick it up. It's the nail polish she said she was missing, I guess she wasn't lying after all.
*you miss her*
Thing signs.
-"do not. Friends are a liability and can be exploited, that makes them weaknesses"
*then what about your date with Tyler?*
-"my date with Tyler is just a favor for almost getting him killed. And your job is to guard that diary while I'm gone"
I say sternly and he gives me a thumbs up.

-"h-hey"
Tyler says shyly.
-"hi."
I say bluntly. I'm determined not to enjoy this.
-"last time I was here my peers attempted to throw me a surprise party"
Tyler laughs a bit.
-"don't worry no surprises, but...you will have to close your eyes"
He says handing me a beautiful dead rose.
-"seriously?"
I ask, accepting the rose and looking into his blue eyes.
-"seriously"
He responds with his perfect smile and a slight laugh. I feel myself begin to blush and avert my eyes.
-"fine."
I say closing my eyes and he leads me into the crypt.

-"right here"
He says moving his hands to my waist and guiding me in.
-"on second"
He says as he goes to close the crypt door.
-"you can open your eyes"
As I open my eyes I see the crypt fully decorated in lights and candles. In the center of it all there's a blanket and a picnic basket. This is...beautiful. I-it's not like I like him or anything though.
I turn to look at him.
-"what? No one's ever take you on a picnic date inside a crypt before?"
He asks with a smile. He then pulls down a white sheet hanging from the roof.
-"how do ya feel 'bout scary movies?"
He asks walking over to the picnic blanket. I go to sit next to him and he smiles as he starts the movie. The intro to 'Legally Blonde' starts and my eyes widen in horror as I watch some basic blonde girl brush through her hair and Tyler laughs.

After a terrifying hour and a half the movie ends.
-"that was torture."
-"oh yeah?"
Tyler asks, cracking a smile.
-"...thank you"
I reply bashfully. Seems he really put a lot of thought into this. I stand up and he moves towards me. He sighs and smiles as we make eye contact.
-"I- I want us to be more than friends"
He finally says.
-"no you don't. I'm not friend material yet alone more than friend material"
-"well I happen to disagree"
He says moving a bit closer.
-"I'll ignore you. Stomp on your heart. And always but my needs and interests first"
He scoffs and smiles.
-"yeah you can keep tryna push me away it's not gonna work"
He says lightly with a smile as his gaze moves from my eyes to my lips.
-"your making a mistake"
-"probably"
-"definitely.."
I say in almost a whisper as we lean into a kiss. Before our lips can even touch the door to the crypt burst's open and we feel a light shine on our faces. It's the sheriff.

-"Tyler?"
The sheriff asks.
-"dad?"
Tyler replies confused. The sheriff sighs.
-"look I'm gonna leave and we're gonna pretend I never saw the two of you, you hear?"
He ask pointing is now turned off flash light at us.
-"unbelievable"
The sheriff says as he shakes his head leaving the crypt.

Enid's pov:

I hear a knock on the door and go to open it. There I see Ajax in a suite holding a bouquet of flowers.
-"a-Ajax?"
I ask as I feel myself begin to blush.
-"h-hi t-these are for you"
He says bashfully handing me the bouquet.
-"oh! Thanks..would you like to come in?"
-"um no actually I was thinking we could go out..?"
-"oh! S-sure, let me get my coat"
Yoko looks up from her magazine and slightly glares as I close the door.
-"what was that?"
She asks.
-"oh just Ajax"
I say in a singing tone as I smile.
-"seriously?"
She says annoyedly, rolling her eyes and looking back down at her magazine.

-"oh? And what's with that tone?"
I ask looking back at her as I grab a coat from the closet.
-"how do you expect to get Wednesday when your going out with Ajax? Your driving her right into Tyler's arms!"
Yoko exclaims slamming her magazine down.
-"hey Wednesday likes Tyler and I like Ajax what's so wrong with that?"
-"nothing. If you were being honest with yourself"
Yoko says with a shrug. I scoff and smile as I reluctantly start to blush.
-"psh me like Wednesday how crazy"
I say to myself as I walk back to the door.
