— 𝗦𝗨𝗡𝗦𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗘 shined down upon the nevermore students. Some sweat dripped from some while other stayed perfectly dry as smiles etched upon their faces.

Quincy Barclay sat by his sister for the first time in forever as it seemed. Her jokes being told to the group finally making a smile appear on his face and for once the headphones out of his ears.

His fingers dangled in the running fountain behind him while his eyes remained on the three surrounding him.

Although the only words he seemed to register was his sisters, he smiled and laughed either wat ignoring the gaze he felt boating into the side of his head.

He got those daily, being the gossip of the year last year and being a Barclay and well, a siren.

Bianca splashed her brother with a small smile that quincy rolled his eyes at refusing to let her get a victory repeating her actions back.

She wasn't upset, but she clearly just liked playing with the boy feelings pretending to look upset while still somehow managing a neutral face that all others seemed to somewhat fear.

But something had brought Quincy out of his trance with the little group

Enid Sinclair.

She had caught his eye accidently while showing a girl around.

Enid had suddenly ran into a large pole on the grounds cussing herself out mentally pretending to play the pain off, the words flew off her tongue as she turned her face out of his view and scurried off.

The girl in pigtails never even glancing towards his way currently uninterested in whatever romance was going on in anyone's life.

Especially her stereotypical blonde roommate who clearly didn't have a filter whenever she had spoke.

"She run into a pole again?" Bianca questioned. The other two sirens had now left leaving the two siblings in a somewhat comforting silence.

He chuckled at her words. "She did."

"She's still hopelessly in love with you."

A dark red blush over came the boys dark skin making the tease's from his elder sister more frequent before poking his cheek in a playful manor.

But quincy couldn't help but think that it wasn't true, the Barclay boy was the type to deny something until proven wrong. And mind told him he was right, but his gut told another thing.

But he didn't dare listen to his gut, his gut didn't always read him into the right direction on choices.

Bianca gave a smile to her brother, his shy smile still clearly implanted in his face as it was being held in his hands to avoid locking eyes with his sister.

"Oh come on q! Save some blush for us girls." She playfully yelled.

"Oh shut up B."

She shrugged in return. "Would've done it sooner."

"𝗜𝗖𝗘𝗗 𝗖𝗢𝗙𝗙𝗘𝗘?" Tyler Galpin questioned. The already made coffee in his hand was given to quincy with a tight hug.

"Thanks man, you always know how to make my day." Quincy said. A small smile shown on his face as an earbud was left in his ear and the other one laying on his chest.

"I love making your day Quinn, its the highlight of mine!" Tyler surrendered his hands playfully, his hand soon connecting with his friends shoulder with a pat also handing him a fresh chocolate chip cookie.

He took a sip sitting down at the table where Tyler sat down next to him, both now eating a half of the cookie while lazily talking.

"Anything new?"

A tired quincy just shrugged. His arm itching to be let down and away from his chin, but quincy wouldn't budge. "Nothing much with me."

Tyler slightly gestured to the coffee which quincy gave to him taking a sip. "Your sister?"

He grabbed the coffee back and shrugged once more. "Just a new girl, I heard her name so many times that I'd already forgotten it."

Tyler nodded. "New rivalry?"

"Most likely." Confirmed the brother.

"She scares me." Tyler said. His eyebrows etched together as he slowly ate a bite of his cookie.

"Get back to work Tyler!" The boy rolled his eyes mimicking his boss's words taking one more sip of the drink before jogging behind the counter.

His gestures never once not making quincy laugh in any moment.

The darkskinned boy leaned back missing the presence of his friend while staring into a space with nothing filled in between.

The smell of coffee making his focus completely dissapear and relax as he leaned back in the booth with his eyes closed.

An earbud in his left ear while his right one basically roamed free incase called by Tyler or a fire alarm just happens to go off.

Possibly a scream of an innocent?

He jumped as he felt a certain presence breaching his personal space, his eyes forced open making sure he wasn't about to get stabbed in the chest.

He saw the raven haired girl with pigtails and immediately grabbed his bag, it being placed in front of his face as he shrunk down.

He used his face to unlock his iPhone and immediately started distracting himself as much as he could to avoid the girl.

He hadn't known much about her besides what bianca has told him. It wasn't much besides some obvious jealousy from their fencing match- where bianca won.

And some talks around the school about her murdering a kid, which wasn't totally off brand for the nevermore rumours. It was more of a normal one in all honesty.

One thing he surely knew about her was that the Addams child was roommates with her total opposite and his ex girlfriend, Enid Sinclair.

He could feel the nonchalant aura that surrounded her as she helped Tyler fix the coffee machine not noticing the glimmer hidden in his eye.

The glimmer that quincy had somehow caught in the mist of trying to peek at what was happening about ten feet away.

Totally not suspicious at all, but Tyler didn't know the girl. So Quincy just waved it off and kept the look in mind while racing back to his phone and onto his apps.

He peaked a bit from behind his backpack scrunching his eyebrows together in confusion as the sudden absence of the girl.

That was until she appeared right in front of him, quincy jumped out of his skin ignoring the eyes of Wednesday as he his behind his bag once more.

Wednesday herself tilted her head, her face staying the same as she pushed the bag aside. "Quincy Barclay."

He gave her a nod. "You talk, don't you."

"Yes."

She gave a bored hum. "Then talk to me."

"Talk to you?"

"I hear so much about you." He gave a small closed mouth smile. "Nothing good." That smile quickly disappeared.

That almost gained a smile upon Wednesdays face at the disappearence of his. But on a chance on one to ten it was a solid negative one.

From then on she blanked out into her own space completely ignoring the boy in front of her, which he embraced with complete slow breathe and his heart going down a couple beats so it wouldn't jump out of his chest.

He bit the edge of his inner lip nervously while his leg bounced up and down getting the attention of Wednesday.

"Stop it."

"Sorry."

He glanced to Tyler who's eyes were widened glancing to the back of the girl head back to Quincy about five times before making a silly face, a smile coming back onto the boys as he did a similar one.

Wednesday ignored the urge to roll her eyes at the boys complete lack of slyness and continued to herself until someone had the audacity to come up to the table with complete cockiness and determination filling his eyes.

Quincy glanced to the door and inwardly groaned, not more problems.

"What's a nevermore freak doing out in the wild?"

"This is our booth."

Wednesday ignored their questions with her own. "Why are you dressed like religious fanatics."

"We're pilgrams."

Quincy rolled his eyes at the boys words and looked over to Wednesday who did not give a single shit.

"Potato, Po - tah - to."

The boy had never known why someone would devote a whole theme park to the pilgrims who didn't do much good in the world.

It was even crazier that Lucas walker and his father had to just own the place.

The boys father had to been on some type of shit when making the purchase, maybe persuaded by some rich guy who didn't want to run the place such as pilgram world.

He most definitely had much more sense than the mayor, to bad this town was just plain stupid most of the time.

"It takes a special kind of stupid to devote an entire theme park to zealots responsible for mass genocide."

Quincy jumped up with a gasp. "That's just what I was thinking!". Lucas glared at the boy as he quickly sat back down.

"Who's side are you on!?"

The siren shrugged at his sorta but not really friend. "Mine."

The mayors son looked at him with scrunched eyebrows. "Aren't we friends?"

The dark skinned boy shrugged not knowing the answer and looked to Wednesday who had not moved from her spot. The tiny glance to Quincy that he somehow read to be curiosity.

The curiosity she would keep questioning to herself until finding out all the answers herself which she was arguably good at.

He glared back to the raven haired girl with a snarl planted on his face and in his words.
"My dad owns pilgrim world. Who you calling stupid."

"If the buckled shoe fits." Quincy's eyebrows raised in somewhat amusement before rolling his eyes at himself. More drama, but this one was more amusing than his, way more convenient than his breakup.

His eyes broke off the two main characters in the moment to Tyler who had approached the group. "Guys, back off."

"That is not gonna do shit." The boy muttered inwardly. His eyes glancing towards his phone where he skipped the current song blasting in his left ear.

"Stay out of this, galpin."

"Yeah, stay out of this."

Tyler looked at quincy with a 'wtf' look at his words only getting his infamous shrug back as he backed into the wall of the booth.

The boy struggled in between filing the obvious upcoming fight but decided against it, his battery was running low. He needed that incase ordering food was needed.

Food was obviously more important that a fight video which he could clearly record from Tyler's phone.

"So tell me, freak."

Quincy grimaced."oh shit." He looked to Tyler then to his phone getting an eye roll from the boy edging for his phone.

The boys tried reaching out to each other avoiding the touch of Wednesday and the cocky words of Lucas.

But before the phone could be handed to quincy the three stupidly dressed boys pounced onto Wednesday making the two friends jump back in fear, a slight girly scream leaving both their throats moving back.

One of the boys was knocked onto Quincy until he pushed them off with his foot onto the floor, quite harshly Quincy may add, glancing to Tyler.

"Could we get donuts later?" He nodded repeatedly going back into his hiding place where an unconscious face happened to be laying beside him.

The three looked at the three boys on the floor, one who sat back with wide eyes and the other stood next to Wednesday with questions that Quincy did not care for as he plugged the other earphone into his ear.

The sheriff eventually entered seconds later as the boy rolled his eyes taking out his earphones in return obviously wanting to get the drama.

Then the headmistress walked in making him stand up with a cheeky smile while grabbing his bag.

While the pigtailed girl was called upon, the tall white haired principal looked over to quincy with knowing eyes and an little smile only he had noticed.

"You too Barclay." He immediately went behind the woman avoiding the eyes off anyone including Tyler huffing as the sheriff started to rant about Wednesdays dad who apparently was a murderer.

At least he was somewhat interesting.

Maybe its where Wednesday got her murderous qualities from?

Or not, the only Addams besides Wednesday that quincy has ever seen was the one and only Morticia Addams.

She looked more the type.

Not to mention she was a Milf.....not that Quincy would ever say that out loud to anyone, that even included anyone of the Tyler priority.

𝖷𝖠𝖵𝖨𝖤𝖱 𝖳𝖧𝖮𝖱𝖯𝖤 knocked on the door of Quincy Barclay's room that he had all to himself and could often be told by Xavier that all he did was brag when it was mentioned.

It was one of the many rare times he saw the boys real smile appear since the first time he met him.

A soft 'come in' was told from inside the purple colored dorm where a sleepy siren laid on his side staring at his computer screen.

"You good Quinn? Heard you got busted out of school."

"Nah, not really. Principal wheems didn't really care."

"That's because she favors you bro." The two males laughed at his words even leaning into the other every time they glanced at each other laughing harder.

The laughing being for no reason.

But Xavier knew he needed to laugh once in a while. Quincy was always the one who knew how to do it without a doubt, even if he didn't know how he did it.

The laughter finally had gone down a couple notches as the boys flopped their backs onto the bed beside each other out of breath to where it could look like a total different scene had just happened, that made Xavier slightly snort trying to breath in.

"Dude, I said stop farting on my covers!"

The Thorpe boy glared in defence. "I snorted!"

"Stop fucking lying."

"I'm not!"

They both stared at the blue stars on the room, the moonlight shining through making the room more comforting the more Xavier looked at it.

He looked to Xavier who's eyes were falling slowly, he looked tired making Xavier feel slightly bad about coming in here.

"I know what your thinking."

The artist hummed in response. "If I didn't want anyone in here I would of told you to fuck off."

"Dirty language alert!"

"You called me a asshole last week!"

"You were being an asshole." The siren shrugged.

Comfortable silence overcame the two as they turned on their sides with a good decent space between the two.

At first no one spoke.

But then Xavier broke the silence with a joke he often told his best friend with a joking smile.

"Are we about to kiss right now?"

Quincy shrugged once more. "I men's we could, but you probably wanna save your virgin lips for ms most hated day of my week."

Xavier backed off in an instant with an obscure look on his face with denile.

"Wednesday!?"

The boy looked at Xavier stupidly. "Obviously, we don't have anyone named Sunday or Monday."

"I don't like Wednesday."

"You are a terrible liar xavier."

Xavier sat up while sputtering, his words not managing to get out. "i- I am not!"

"You are."

"And i lost my lip virginity a while ago!" An offended long haired boy defended.

"To who? Ajax."

"Bianca!"

"Nah, she said kissing you was like kissing a cactus. So I'm pretty sure you being a cactus that scenario makes you a non moving object."

"But its alive?"

"Not to bianca."

Xavier gave up arguing with the boy this late at night and sighed. "She really said that?"

"Without regret too."

𝗔𝗨𝗧𝗛𝗢𝗥𝗦 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗘, Ty for those who have supported me for these past 2 years! I literally appreciate you all so much!

Anyways, can't wait to fuck over Xavier and Quincy's relationship for the while season.
