REQUESTED!
YOU ARE EUGENE.
Pugsley was a late bloomer.
Of course he was.
Anybody could tell he hadn't wolfed out yet.
Hell, he practically moped around during full moons while all of the other werewolves at Nevermore were in the Lupin Cages, wolfing out like there's no tomorrow.
But that didn't last as long as you thought it would.
On one random full moon, Pugsley finally wolfed out.
No one knew why or how it was right at that moment.
Maybe it was just a coincidence.
Or maybe it was because he was finally maturing and realizing the fact that he was in love.
Maybe that had to do with it.
You didn't think too much into it, though.
It would be dangerous if you did.
Because thinking about it only made you realize more and more.
You were in love, too.
With him.
Pugsley Addams.
Wednesday's weird little brother.
Your roommate.
But you never thought about it.
At least, you tried to never think about it.
On occasion, when Pugsley would look extra nice or act extra cute, you'd think about it.
"He's so pretty..."
But you'd immediately brush those thoughts away.
No, Eugene.
Not him.
Tonight was a full moon.
Which meant Pugsley would wolf out soon.
You guys were at lunch when the words spontaneously erupted from your mouth after he mentioned having to be in the Lupin Cages tonight.
"I'll lock you up. I've got nothing better to do."
Why would you offer that?
Why, Eugene?
Now you'd be stuck having to lock him up in the Lupin Cages, when all you wanted to do was relax in your dorm that night with headphones in so you didn't have to hear all of the howling.
But you just had to speak before thinking.
And now you were in some serious shit.
You had to lock up the boy your heart wanted, all because the words slipped out.
And, of course you acted nonchalant.
As if none of this phased you.
Like you didn't feel the sparks between you two.
But you absolutely felt them.
So did he.
But neither of you said anything.
You never did.
Not once.
Pugsley stood still in the cage as you locked it up.
Your immediate response was to leave the second you pulled the key from the keyhole.
But his voice rang in your ears.
It stopped you.
As if some kind of magnetic pull.
"Eugene... Can you stay...? Just a bit...?"
His voice was soft.
As if he was scared.
And he probably was.
It was his first time in the Lupin Cages.
His first night all alone since he got to Nevermore.
Even the first night he wolfed out, you were there.
He didn't want to be without you.
Even if there were metal bars separating you.
He wanted you there.
He needed you there.
Just as much as you needed to stay with him.
Oh, Pugsley...
