By the time they got downstairs, it was a little past lunchtime and the 3 girls were finishing up eating... Yoko hadn't told Bianca and Divina about what she had witnessed, as it wasn't her news to tell. She did however cover for them... "How was tunnel exploring?" asked Divina lifting an eyebrow. "Tunnel...?" Enid looked puzzled at her. Yoko started at Enid wide-eyed so she would get the hint. "Oh! Oh!!! Yeah! Interesting! Mhm, yet I feel Wednesday enjoyed it more, isn't that right lo...Wends?"

"There is...much more to explore...but it was a very...interesting feeling..." Wednesday said honestly, taking the hint.

"Wooooah! What's that on your neck Addams?" Bianca spotted quickly.

Wednesday instinctively put her hand to her mark, it was still warm to touch.

"Not there, on the other side..." Bianca said slightly annoyed.

"...Is that...a hickey?" Divina added, narrowing her eyes to get a better look.

Everyone was speechless...they all looked from Wednesday to Enid and back...

Bianca raised an impeccable eyebrow "Who knew you had it in you, E? Choosing an Addams as a lifemate...congratulations brave Puppy!" She fully smiled and hugged Enid tightly. As she let go, she approached Wednesday, patting her on the back. "You better treat her right Addams...She deserves the world after all she's been through..."

Divina hugged Enid as well and whispered, "You found yourself a good one E. I can tell she genuinely loves you." She then smiled at Wednesday, tilting her head.

Yoko was last to speak, "Addams, may I talk to you in private?" She said in a serious tone that none of them had heard before, her stance firm.

"Lead the way." Said Wednesday matching her tone and stance,
