He nodded at her dismissiveness. "All right. Subtle hint taken."
"Well, I for one love pandas," Andy stated and picked up a dart. She threw it into one of the balloons. "My favorite animal, actually."
The boy hummed. "Why? Cause they're black and white?" He teased. 
"No. They prefer to be alone. They enjoy their freedom. I can somehow relate to that." Andy threw the final dart and popped the last balloon. She smiled sheepishly.
"Jesus." Xavier exhaled, his eyes widening by how both of them managed to pop all of the balloons.
"You should know Andy and I are waiting for someone,"  Wednesday informed when she noticed that he wasn't going to leave. 
His face fell. "Oh yeah, who's the lucky guy. . . or girl?" 
"What does it matter to you?"  
Andy looked between them and grinned when the man working the booth handed her the very large panda. 
Xavier looked like he was going to respond but his mouth closed when he saw Tyler walk up to them. "Didn't mean to interrupt."
She immediately looked his way.
"You're not,"  Xavier denied bitterly, shooting Wednesday a final look before walking away.
Uncomfortable, Tyler turned to the sisters. "This is going to be trickier than I thought. Dad hit me with a curfew. We need to go if I'm gonna make it back in time."
"I've got some dead weight I need to lose first,"  Wednesday explained, looked over at Weems. She turned to Andy. "Meet me behind the parking lot when the fireworks start." Her gaze cut to Tyler. "Take him with you." 
Feeling another round of nerves, she nodded. "Okay. Be careful."
Wednesday fled and she and Tyler took the long way, walking behind the one of carnival games to avoid Weems seeing them. Tyler was holding his breath, his hands stuffed in his pockets and he eyed the massive panda bear in her arms. "Jesus, that thing's about as big as you are," he said with a grin.
Andy laughed. "Yeah, I have pretty good aim."
"Do you go to the fair a lot?" 
She shook her head. "No. When I was born, Wednesday tried taking my head off with a flaming arrow so I learned how to shoot incase she ever tries to do it again. It comes it handy." 
Tyler's face stilled into a disturbed expression. "Why would she do that?"
Andy shrugged. "I dunno. She believed that when a new baby's born, another sibling has to die, and our brother wasn't born yet, so she tried to kill me. Turns out she was wrong. I'm still alive somehow."
He blinked multiple times. "Wow. Well, I'm glad you are."
She glanced up at him and saw that he was smiling at her. "I don't think I've seen that yet."
"S-Seen what?"
"That smile."
Andy didn't realize she was even smiling until he pointed it out. She quickly looked down at her shoes, feeling the expression increase. The two of them stood in the parking lot and waited for Wednesday. "Oh, here," Andy remembered and held out the giant panda. "For you."
Tyler looked between her and the stuffed animal. "You won this for me?"
"Well, I wasn't expecting to win it, but, think of it as. . .a token of my appreciation," she responded with a slight smile.
He chuckled. "What am I gonna do with a panda?"
Andy shrugged. "I dunno. Keep it as a reminder of the scary goth girl with a weird family that you helped escape from the school of freaks."
