Wednesday · Y/n story by @arianamikaelson

The fluorescent lights of Jericho's only coffee shop hummed overhead, casting a sterile glow over the four figures gathered around a corner booth. Outside, the main street was empty, the last of the daylight bleeding into a bruised purple sky.

Sheriff Donovan Galpin

rubbing his temples I still can't believe I agreed that a teenager will help me with the case.

He stared at the cold coffee in front of him, the liquid untouched.

Sheriff Donovan Galpin

Does that friend of hers—normal or outcast? I need to know what I'm dealing with before I let her anywhere near this investigation.

Tyler Galpin

shifting in his seat Dad, she's—

Enid Sinclair

Honestly, Sheriff, Wednesday's friend is super mysterious. Like, very hush-hush. But if Wednesday trusts her enough to bring her along, she must be worth it.

Ajax Petropolus

quietly Yeah, I mean... Wednesday doesn't really do friends. So whoever this girl is, she's gotta be someone special.

Tyler Galpin

looking toward the door They should be here any minute now.

The bell above the door chimed.

Wednesday Addams

walking toward the booth Good evening, gentlemen. Enid.

Enid Sinclair

WEDS! Oh my gosh, I was so worried you'd bail!

Wednesday Addams

ignoring her, turning to the group Everyone, this is Y/N.

A pause. Wednesday's voice, for once, held something almost resembling warmth.

Wednesday Addams

She's... my best friend.

The silence that followed was thick enough to cut.
