CHAPTER FOUR—
little nudist

"You're not suppose to be up here." Xavier scolded the trio at his door, pulling them all in one after the other.

"Good to see you too." Bianca looked back in disbelief.

"I'm great, how are you?" Ajax mocked him.

Lasy inhaled deeply as she tossed her hands up. "What they said."

"How'd you get past the Housemaster?" Xavier looked back at Bianca. "Use your siren powers?"

"Not while wearing this." she clutched her necklace. Lasy crawled into Xavier's bed and wrapped the blankets tightly around her body, Ajax jumped in at the end and propped himself up on his side. "Would it kill you to not think the worst of me for once?"

"What do you want, Bianca?" he huffed, leaning on the edge of his bed and looking back at the pair toward the front. "And what'd you bring these two with you for? I'm never gonna get her out of my bed now."

"Woah, never thought i'd witness Lasy Ishanvi in a boys bed." Ajax gasped as she smacked him in the arm. "Ow!"

"You know what they say." Xavier shrugged. "Shy in the-"

Lasy leaned toward and smacked him in the back of the head. "Ow."

"Deserved." she said back, wrapping up in the blankets again. "When did you get new blankets?"

"Couple weeks ago." he looked back. "I didn't tell you because I knew you'd do this."

Lasy gave a pout as Xavier looked back at Bianca. "What do you want?"

"To see how you're doing." she answered in response. "I'm sorry about Rowan. I know you guys used to be close."

"Since when did you give a damn about Rowan?" Xavier mocked her, Ajax and Lasy shared a similar look.

"You were the one afraid he'd do something to Wednesday." Bianca pointed out, now fed up with his attitude. "Isn't that why you've been following her like an eager-eyes puppy? Or is there something more?"

At her comment, Lasy gave a chuckle as Xavier looked back at her in betrayed. Her face fell as she shut her mouth, shaking her head and pointing to Ajax.

"What?" he gapped at the way she'd tossed him under the bus so fast.

"Seriously, what do you see in her?" Bianca asked as Xavier left the pair on the bed and walked toward his desk, shutting one of his journals and turning around again. "You have a thing for tragic goth girls with funeral-parlor fashion sense?"

"Maybe it's because she hasn't tried to manipulate me." Xavier pretended to thing. Lasy fought the urge to say "maybe because she doesn't speak to you." but she didn't.

"I make one mistake, and you can't forgive me." Bianca shook her head at him, the same conversation being had multible times. "She treats you like crap, and you can't get enough."

"Maybe we should go." Ajax whispered to Lasy as she shook her head and went back to watching the pair intensely.

"Why are you fixated on Wednesday?" Xavier narrowed his eyes in confusion.

"Because she thinks she's better than everyone else!" Bianca explained with a crazy look in her eye. Lasy and Bianca were in similar boats it seemed, expressed in completely different ways. Bianca let it take over her mind about Xavier and Wednesday, Lasy choose not to think about Tyler and Wednesday. Shockingly enough, it was the one thing she didn't obsessively overthink. "I can't wait to crush Ophelia Hall tomorrow and watch her werewolf roommate crumble."

Lasy cleared her throat and gave her a knowing point. Bianca rose her hands in surrender. "It's gonna be a Poe Cup finale to remember. I hate to think what you three have got planned this time."

"Still could leave your Sirens and join our team." Ajax shrugged his shoulders. "Lasy and I already painted everyone costumes."

Lasy held her hands out to reveal the paint still stuck to her hands.

"My games already started." Xavier shook his head as he looked over at Bianca.

"I like to win." Bianca shrugged her shoulders. "Is that so wrong?"

Xavier looked like he was trying not to laugh, looking over Bianca's head rather then into her eyes like she hoped. "And you wonder why I broke up with you."

"You used to love my killer instinct." she defended herself as Ajax and Lasy shared another look. Bianca grasped his hand. "We were good together, Xavier."

Lasy pretended to throw up as Ajax forcefully fell over and pretended to be dead. "I mean, we stayed some what friends. That has to say something."

"For this." he shrugged and motioned toward the pair on the bed. "The four of us were friends before, I don't wanna loose that."

"Aw, buddy!" Ajax gushed. "You love us that much?"

Lasys face lit up as she pointed to herself. Xavier rolled his eyes. "Yes, you too."

"That's the only reason?" Bianca got his attention again. "Not because we genuinely were just good together?"

"Were we?" he met her eye this time. "Or is that just how you wanted me to feel?"

Bianca's shoulders dropped in disbelief. "Trust me, Wednesday Addams is not the girl of your dreams. She's the stuff of your nightmares. Let's go, you two, before Xavier calls the Housemaster on us."

"See you in the morning." Ajax gave Xavier a wave as he got out of bed, Lasy right after as she kept Xavier comforter wrapped around ber.

"Hey, Las?" he called out as she paused and looked back with an innocent, questionable look. "You forgetting something?"

Her face lit up in realization, nodding her head as she walked over and kissed him on the cheek before turning around and walking away, comforter still secured around her. Xavier shook his head in disbelief as Ajax laughed, leaving Xavier robbed of yet another comforter. "This is the second time you've done this!"

"I don't know what he's talking about." Lasy told her two friends as they walked away. She elbeked Ajax. "Did you mean what you said?"

"Which time?" he asked.

"Don't be a jerk." Bianca rolled her eyes. "You know she's talking about what you said about the bed."

"Oh, that?" he frowned his eyebrows together. "You just don't seem like the type of girl, Las. Nothing wrong with that."

She frowned her eyebrows together, elbowing him again and shrugging her shoulders. He realized she wanted a better explanation. "You're just so shy, and quiet. I don't know, most girls that are shy and quiet are pretty modest. Meaning they don't really get in other guys beds. That's just what i've heard, obviously not judging the entire woman species."

"Sure sounds like it." Bianca rolled her eyes. "You're gonna give her a complex."

"I didn't mean to give you a complex." he looked to Lasy as she seemed deep in thought. "I bet you could get in any guys bed you wanted to. And girl."

Lasy gave him a tight lipped smile. "Thanks."

She completely over throughly the entire thing and caused reckless behavior.

"Come on. Work with me." Lasy tightened her bra strap as she stood in her full length mirror, now cleaned to perfection and finally finding a matching set in her drawer. She held her phone in one hand and was trying to pose in the best possible way without showing her face. So far, she just looked awkward and like she'd been trying too hard. "Why is this so hard, man?"

She crawled on her bed and laid back on her back, holding her phone up. She used her elbows to push her boobs together some, the majority hidden behind the navy bra. She snapped the phone but decided she hated it, doing it another four times before huffing. It'll have to do. Lasy relaxed, not sucking in so bad and letting her elbows rest. She rolled over on her stomach and cropped the photo to get the bottom of her chin out.

Lasy put a filter on it and hesitated. Did she just keep the picture for herself to not feel so "modest" like Ajax claimed? Did she send it to someone? She rolled her eyes, finding the group chat with her trio of friends.

lasy: i've taken a photo of my boobs to prove i'm not modest just because i'm not in boys beds. what do i do now?

ajax: lasy!!

ajax: i didn't mean to give you a complex, bbg!!!

bianca: you took a picture of your boobs? you???

lasy: you think the same way he does.

bianca: NO

bianca: i just wasn't expecting THIS type of text after ajax gave you a complex. i was expected a bunch of feminist links on why what he said is toxic asf.

ajax: once again, didn't mean to give her a complex! good for you, lasy! how do you feel?

lasy: how do i feel? like i took a picture of my boobs, ajax. how else am i suppose to feel?

ajax: maybe a little bad?

xavier: wtf is going on??

xavier: lasy took nudes and ajax gave her a complex about it? ajax, don't shut shame her.

ajax: i'd never slut shame lasy!! maybe bianca.

bianca: how kind

lasy: what do i do with my boob photo?

bianca: do whatever you wanna do with it. own it, girl! proud of you for stepping out of your comfort zone, just don't send it to the wrong person.

xavier: i vote send it to us since you don't talk to anyone else anyways.

lasy: xavier, that was mean.

ajax: he's just wants to be the only guy that has seen your boobs. he's completely objectifying you, i'm a much better candidate.

xavier: says the one that slut shamed her.

ajax: i did not! you weren't even there! i did the complete opposite.

lasy: is this true???

lasy: you only wanna see my boobs because no one else has? now i'm really gonna send feminist links.

xavier: not true. i just know me and ajax are the only guys you talk to so if it's gonna be one of us, it should be me.

bianca: when did she ever say she was gonna send it to either of you? she asked what to do with it, not who to send it to.

xavier: why take a nude if you're not gonna show off?

lasy: because ajax gave me a complex.

ajax: IM SORRY!!!

bianca: i say send it to anyone you wanna send it to but make sure your face is cropped out so it doesn't get sent around. or i'll siren song whoever you send it to so they don't show anyone.

ajax: just send it to the whole group chat.

xavier: and you think i'm the one objecting her?

lasy: i appreciate the desperation to see my boobs, but i think i'll just keep it to myself and now have proof i'm not what ajax says. complex gone.

ajax: i'm sorry, lasy. i'll think about what i say before i say it but did you at least have fun??

lasy: yes. going to sleep now.

bianca: goodnight our little nudist!

xavier: sleep tight our little nudist!

ajax: sweet dreams our little nudist!

lasy: night!!!! xxx

Lasy clicked off the messages and hit her one that had just came in from Tyler, kicking her legs just slightly.

whostyler: how'd your day go???

Lasy smiled, rolling over on her back again as her entire body felt lit on fire.

eclipselasy: sooo much better now that i get to talk to you!!

whostyler: aww, really??

eclipselasy: really really!!

Then, it hit her.

eclipselasy: do u like boobs???

whostyler: ???

eclipselasy: are you a boobs guy??

whostyler: where's this coming from??

eclipselasy: i took my first ever half naked picture of my boobs and my friends say i should send it to someone.

eclipselasy: so, do you like boobs enough to be the only person to ever see under the shirt or are you shy and modest and have a complex too?

whostyler: you lost me with that last half but i'd be honored to be the first person to ever see!! :)

whostyler: but, why so sudden??

eclipselasy: because i've never done it before and want to.

whostyler: sounds good!

Lasy smiled as she found the photo, looking it over one more time but trying not to pay too close of attention before she found a million things wrong with it. She attached it to the text and hit send, her feet bouncing and curling as her heart raced. Luckily, Tyler knew her well enough by now to know how fast she'd overthink something if he didn't get back to her quickly.

whostyler: i'm not ignoring you by not texting back, i'm just taking the time to admire.

Lasy screamed loudly into her pillow before rolling over again, clutching her phone before looking down at her boobs. "I had no clue you guys were so powerful!"

whostyler: you're so pretty, las!!!

whostyler: you've got a great body.

eclipselasy: thank you!

eclipselasy: i am glad you like.

whostyler: not like, love. i'm glad you felt comfortable enough to send something like that to me.

whostyler: do u want something back?

Lasy gasped out loud as she sat up forcefully, trying to get out of bed but tripping in the process and face planting the ground. "Ow."

She held her nose, standing up and clutching her phone. She re-read the text over and over, just staring. Unlike Tyler, she didn't stop to think how he'd overthink her silence. At least, he wasn't the type to send a million text in fear like she was. Lasy took a deep breath as she sat down again, leaning against her knees as one of her hands messed with the material on the ends of her underwear out of need to fidget with something.

eclipselasy: like what?

Tyler sighed in relief when he finally got one back, sitting down after pacing.

whostyler: i think that's ultimately up to you

whostyler: what sort of thing do you like?

eclipselasy: i don't really know.

eclipselasy: i've never really paid close attention to anything like that before. haven't like anyone enough to.

whostyler: well, you think about it and come back to me for some repayment :)

Lasy smiled, dropping her phone as she laid back in her bed. She shut her eyes and let the faint music from her radio play in her ears, a light song with distant lyrics. She thought hard about what she liked most, what caught her eye. When she first saw Tyler, she really admired his arms. Muscular but not in a scary type of way. But, did she just like that because that's all she was able to see? Or was it genuinely something she was attracted to? Was it both?

She tried to imagine the first thing she'd do if they were together, maybe in the large pantry at Weathervane or if she'd sneak him into her dorm late at night with the help of Bianca and her siren song. Lasy tried to fast forward all the things she'd do first like kiss him, have an anxiety attack, all that good stuff. She'd probably touch his arms, but she'd really wanna take his shirt off. Her eyes shot open, grasping her phone next to her.

eclipselasy: i would also like to see under the shirt, please :)

whostyler: you've got yourself a deal, lady
