Fierce & Feisty Friday
Cat Scratch Fever
It had been a horrible day, anyway, until Wednesday walked through the door.
There was no mistaking her pale skin, sunken eyes always at least partially hidden by a tantalizing fringe, and dark red lips, so plump that his tongue accidentally darted out to sweep over his mouth. But he almost didn’t see her signature braids, black as natural hair could be, camouflaged against her skin-tight, black vinyl suit, stitched together haphazardly as though it had been patched up after years of wear and tear. Tyler’s eyes swept down and up her body, slack jawed. Her skintight suit revealed a much more mature curves than her baggy uniform hid from his view.
“I’ll have a quad,” she said in her usual sour way, but Tyler didn’t quite hear her. He couldn’t take his eyes away from the perfectly straight ears standing on top of her head.
“I knew I should have taken off this ridiculous costume,” she grumbled.
Enid sulked next to her, and said, “But it’s our team uniform! And we’re celebrating as a team!”
“I’d rather celebrate with a quad,” she said. Then she snapped her fingers in front of Tyler's face. “Tyler?”
“What? Oh, right. Sorry.” Then he stared Wednesday in the eyes, and tilted his head with a smile so subtle that Wednesday didn’t even notice.
“Well, whenever you get a chance, Tyler,” Enid said in a suddenly wispy, flirtatious voice. Tyler swallowed hard, knowing he’d been found out by someone. “We’d all like those fancy frozen latte drinks you make.”
“Actually, the espresso machine is about to die, so I probably won’t be able to make them.” He shrugged his shoulders, and moved his eyes back to Wednesday. “Sorry.”
Enid looked at Wednesday, who had never shied away from Tyler that whole time, and sighed. “You know, it’s almost dinner time, and I think they’re serving steak tartar. I want to get there a little early so I can get the freshest cut.” Then she looked around the empty cafe, and said, “Besides, it looks like you’re closing anyway.” Then she gave Tyler an encouraging glance, and skipped to the door.
“You coming, Roomie?” she asked for show.
“You go on,” Wednesday said out of the corner of her mouth. “I'm going to wait for my quad.”
“Suit yourself!” Enid shouted cheerily as she bounded out the door.
Left alone in the cafe, Tyler and Wednesday stared at each other over the machine for an awkward amount of time.
“Well? My quad?” Wednesday asked impatiently.
He shook his fantasies out of his head, and said, “Oh, right,” and started on her drink.
The machine sputtered and steamed, then completely died. Tyler tried every button he could, but nothing worked. Then he smiled weakly at Wednesday, red in the face, and not sure how this could have happened again, right in front of her.
She rolled her eyes and walked around the counter, and fixed it like she had the first time. “You really need to be more careful with this machine. It’s sensitive.”
Tyler stood slightly behind her, determined to learn from from her capable hands. When she turned fast, her vinyl stuck to his cotton, then unstuck with a whoosh like tape being pulled off.
Wednesday put her hand to his chest and roughly shoved him against the wall.
He grunted, though he wished she had pushed him a little harder. “What was that for?” he asked.
“Did you break that machine so I’d hang back to help you?”
He tilted his head and smiled patiently. “Do you really think I’d do something like that?”
She placed a sweet kiss on his mouth, which Tyler wasn't even ready for. She backed away, her eyes appraising every microscopic movement in his face. She paused at the unmistakable desire clouding his darkened eyes. He corners of he mouth quirked up, and he tentatively lifted his hands to her waist.
She kissed him again, her lips dancing with his, grasping and pulling a little more each time. The ache in his groin from the waxy silk reigning over his mouth, and the pressure of her hips kneading into him in rhythm caused his ears to ring and burn, and the only thing he knew was how much more of her he wanted.

Nancy has always been the mother of the group. She has been through a lot with them, and has protected them from all the troubles they’ve been through. During the problems they had with Vecna, it’s no secret she has been starting to develop feelings for Steve, again.
You were only a part of the group for not that long. When they needed your help, you gladly gave it to them, and in the process of defeating Vecna, you and Steve fell for each other. So, when he asked you out, you accepted. Not long after, you two had started dating.
–
The only peaceful time at Hawkins was during mornings. No shouting, no nosy neighbors, just peace. Making a cup of coffee before starting the day became a part of your daily routine. As you got ready to go outside, you saw Steve pulling in your driveway.
“Hey, what are you doing here?” You smiled as Steve pulled you in for a kiss.
“Why? Is it wrong to pick up my beautiful girlfriend?” He pulled you in for another kiss as you chuckled. You definitely got lucky with Steve. He’s everything you need in a man, someone who’s caring, and sweet, I’m talking like flowers everyday type of man. He was perfect.
When you both got in the car, you started jamming to your favorite songs on the way to school. As he dropped you off, you both shared a passionate kiss.
“Alright, I’ll see you later babe. Love you!” He blew you a kiss as he drove off
“Love you too!” You replied as you were waving at him.
What you guys didn’t know was that someone else was watching.
–
As you were walking along the hallways, you stumbled across Robin whom you waved at. She just glared at you in reply. Weird. She’s not usually like this. Figuring that maybe she was just in a bad mood or was having a bad day, you shrugged it off.
During lunch, you usually sat with Robin and Nancy. However, when you noticed they weren’t there, you just sat with your other friends. That was interesting, you thought. Maybe it was just a coincidence, paying no attention to it at all, you decided to shrug it off again.
After school, your day just got weirder, when you tried to talk to Max, it seemed as if she was in a hurry. You kept on asking if something was wrong, yet she just kept on insisting that she had something important to do.
“Hey Max!” you said with a smile
“Hey” she muttered as she hurriedly put her stuff away in her locker before going in the other direction.
“Max! Is something wrong?” You said with a worried look plastered on your face. She nodded as she continued to run away from you. What was going on?
–
Worried that something wrong happened, you went to Dustin’s house hoping to get an answer. He was smiling when you saw him but as soon as he saw you at the door, it was quickly replaced with a frown.
“Ok that’s it! What is going on? Why is everybody being rude to me today?” You said as you furrowed your eyebrows. Dustin sighed.
“(Y/N), look it’s not your fault” He said trying to make you feel better.
“Not my fault? Everybody just seems so off today!” you ranted. “Everybody seems to be in a good mood but as soon as they see me, they instantly either avoid me or ignore me” you continued.
Dustin just looked at you with a look on his face, it was as if he was disappointed in you and mad. “I’m sure you did nothing wrong, m-maybe everyone just had a bad day..?” He said trying to make an excuse. But you knew something was wrong. You noticed he stuttered, and he tends to do that a lot whenever he’s lying. Dustin is a bad liar.
You sighed, not wanting to fight him. “Look, just at least give me a hint of what I did”
“You just– you hurt one of us okay? And she’s someone very important”
“And I’m not? How am I supposed to know if you don’t tell me?” You replied. He sighed once again. You were itching to find out what was going on.
“Fine, just talk to Nancy or something ok?” He said as you nodded, and he closed the door clearly not wanting to speak to you anymore.
So, you went to bed that night thinking what you did wrong. Retracing your steps from the moment you woke up even up to the day before. I don’t get it you wondered, you were all fine the day before, all of you were even laughing and planning to hang out. What had gone wrong?
–
The next morning, you woke up really early to go confront Nancy. And when you got to her house, she had a big smile plastered across her face which seemed to fade as soon as she saw you. A simple “Oh” coming out of her mouth.
“Hi” you gave her a small smile. She greeted you “Hi” back but her eyes were glued on the floor.
“Nancy, come on, talk to me. What did I do wrong to you?” You grabbed her shoulders forcing her to look at you.
“It’s nothing, okay?” She tried to explain. “No it's not okay! Everyone has been very cold and distant towards me which is very rude and you gave me no explanation at all on what I did” you ranted.
For a second, she seemed to hesitate on what to say, but soon, everything poured out of her mouth.
“You wanna know what you did? You’re dating Steve.” She said, you were confused, you knew they dated but why was she so affected by you dating him. I mean, she was already dating Jonathan so you thought it would be okay with her.
“What’s wrong with me dating Steve?” you asked confusedly, she took a deep breath before starting to talk again. “You’re supposed to follow the principles of best friends. He’s my ex and you know the rule about not dating your best friend’s ex” she replied.
“But you’re with Jonathan, I thought it would be ok with you”
“It’s not okay? Just because I’m with Jonathan doesn’t make it okay.”
“You were barely even dating Steve, you were in love with Jonathan halfway through your relationship with him” you said. You finally put the pieces together. Her staring at Steve at the lake, her flirting with him whenever he got the chance, her being rude to Robin when they first met because she thought Robin and Steve were dating. It finally made sense, Nancy still likes Steve.
“You still like him don’t you?” you said as you looked at her. Her eyes went directly to the floor as you said that. And when she turned to look at you, it was a look that a child would give you if they were guilty about something. She still liked him.
Walking away from her house, you continued walking and was lost in your thoughts. Why were they mad? You can’t control who you love. You felt betrayed, as if someone had ripped your heart from inside you. You felt horrible. Now you know that if you and Nancy ever fought again, they would always choose her side.
Your friends hated you and shunned you all day because of your relationship with Steve. The thought couldn’t help but make you scoff. It’s so stupid, all of it.
They’re mad at you all because you liked a boy.
