Wednesday's pov:

-"psst um hey guys, I-I think we're here?"
I slowly open my eyes, my vision blurry as I see Ajax leaning over me and Enid.
-"what?"
I reply, stretching as Enid wakes up.
-"ah sorry I wasn't gonna wake you but then we stopped, is this your place?"
He asks, pointing outside the window.
-"ah, yes we're here every one"
I say, opening the door and helping Enid out. Xavier looks up at the house.
-"huh oddly enough I'm not surprised"
He says, placing on his sunglasses.
-"yeah I see what ya mean, it's not every day ya see an all black mansion"
Ajax agrees, looking up at the house. Lurch unlocks the trunk and begins passing out their suitcases.

Enid's pov:

W-wow Wednesday's house is big.
-"Enid?"
I look back down at her, she's adorably pouting. I laugh a bit. The house DEFINITELY matches her personality.
-"what's up?"
She asks, clearly confused as to why I was laughing.
-"nothing, your just cute"
I reply with a big smile. She rolls her eyes but that doesn't hide the blush on her face. She leads the way to her front door but stops right in front of it.

-"ok so I'm pretty sure the only one here who has met my parents is Enid, my dad is a very physical kinda guy and very loud. I take after my mother more, she's very soft spoken. I also have two little brothers, Pugsley and Pubert. You probably won't be seeing Pubert as I have been informed he's staying with my uncle overseas at the moment. Any questions?"

-"woah that's a lot, but nah I don't think any of us have questions right guys?"
Xavier says, looking at the rest of the group. Everyone looks around and just kind of agrees with him. Wednesday sighs.
-"alright then let's head in"
-"I'm sure you'll fit righttt in won't ya Enid? I bet the Addams' will just love that BRIGHT personality of yours"
Xavier whispers to me. I look up at him confused but he's not even looking at me. He smiles and walks in front of me. I was already feeling nervous but fuck should I just not be here?

Wednesday's pov:

-"mother, father, we're back"
I call out and in less than a minute my parents enter the room.
-"ah hello children, I trust you traveled well?"
My mother asks. I look over at my friends and see Xavier, Ajax, and Yoko's jaws dropped. Bianca rolls her eyes as she looks at them.
-"yes ma'am we traveled well, thanks again for providing us with plane tickets and a place to stay"
Bianca says on their behalf.
-"h-hi! I'm Xavier Thorpe"
Xavier says, wide eyed with a smile as he takes a step forward and shakes my mothers hand. I roll my eyes and he greets my father as well.

-"ah! We've heard a bit about you from Wednesday! Your the young artist right?"
My father asks, patting him on the back.
-"yes sir!"
He replies happily, placing a hand in my fathers back as well.
-"well I'm a man of passion myself and it's served me well"
-"I hope I can do the same sir"
-"ahem!"
I say, clearing my throat to regain my father's attention.
-"this is Yoko"
I say. Yoko steps forward and greets my parents.
-"ah a vampire, lovely"
My mother says with a smile.

Yoko begins blushing as she smiles at my mom.
-"Bianca"
I say. She steps forward and greets my parents.
-"very nice to meet you ma'am, thanks again for having us sir"
She says, shaking their hands.
-"ahh and who's this tall fellow?"
My mother asks with a smirk, referring to Ajax.
-"m-my name's Ajax ma'am"
He says, stepping forward to shake her hand.
-"what's with the hat there my boy?"
My father asks.
-"I-I'm a Gorgon, this just kinda helps me not accidentally stone anyone"
-"and where's the fun in that?"
My mother replies with a wink and Ajax instantly begins blushing.

-"and last but not least, Enid"
I say, holding her hand as she walks up to my parents.
-"Ah yes we've met before"
My father says with a smile, nodding his head.
-"yes sir I believe we have"
Enid says, sticking her hand out.
-"oh no need for that!"
My mother says, wrapping Enid in a hug.

Enid's pov:

-"we just knew you and Wednesday would be perfect together"
Mrs. Addams whispers, squeezing me. I smile a bit. I dunno what I was expecting but considering how Wednesday is I DEFINITELY wasn't expecting hugs. Her father hugs me next. This is great, I truly had nothing to worry about I guess.
-"so the two of you are dating yes?"
Her father happily asks. I feel myself begin to blush and see as Wednesday does the same.
-"yes, as I've told you guys a dozen times"
She answers, covering her face.

Wednesday's mom laughs lightly.
-"well come on up kids and pick your rooms, dinner will be served in a few hours but there's snacks in the meantime"
She says, guiding us up the staircase. The butler and Wednesday's dad grab our bags and follow behind us. Wednesday grabs my hand.
-"you ok?"
She asks. I smile a bit.
-"I'm fine don't worry"
I whisper in reply. She nods her head and soon we reach the hall.

-"follow me children"
Her mother instructs. We stop at one door and her mother opens it. Inside the room there's a big black bed on a dark oak frame with a thin black vail draped over it. There's a giant doll house replica of the house against the wall, a few drawers and shelves along with a mirror and a guillotine in the corner. There's also a small black carpet and the whole room smells like vanilla and...blood?
-"this is Wednesdays room"
Mrs. Addams says.
-"ohhhh"
We all reply, practically in unison.
-"yes. Yoko, Enid, and Bianca you guys are welcome to stay in here if you'd like or we have other rooms available"
Wednesday says, turning towards us. The three of us nod. Xavier raises his hand.

-"yes dear?"
-"can I stay in here?"
He asks with a smirk and my jaw almost drops. Wednesday thinks for a moment.
-"nope! I'M staying in here! Sorry Xavier"
I say, grabbing onto Wednesdays arm. Wednesday looks at me stunned for a second but clears her throat.
-"yes well sorry Xavier but Enid'll be staying with me"
Wednesday replies. Xavier rolls his eyes and sticks his hands in his pockets, clearly annoyed.
-"come now"
Her mother says, already back in the hallway.
-"we have three other rooms in total for you kids the others are used for...other things"
Her mother says with a frighteningly happy smile.

Wednesday's mom opens the door to one of the rooms revealing a big room with two beds dressed in a silky fabric. It's more or less a basic room but beautiful nonetheless.
-"the other room's basically look the same as this, the only thing that changes are the bathrooms"
Wednesday says, walking towards a door in the room. She opens it revealing a dark marbled bathroom with two mirrors, a shower, and a tub. Her mother takes as to a few other rooms and then asks us where we'd like to stay. Wednesday squeezes my hand a bit and leans towards me.
-"please stay with me, I already have an extra bed and some other stuff picked out for you"
She whispers. I laugh a bit and cup her face.

Wednesday's pov:

Enid lightly kisses my forehead.
-"I'd stay with you either way"
She says with a smile. I feel my face heat up but just take her hands off of my face. Yoko and Bianca decide to room together in order to give me and Enid "private" time, I don't trust the way they said it though. After a slight disagreement Ajax and Xavier decide to sleep in two different rooms.
