Kennedy nodded. "Right. They'd probably have to die and come back to life to catch her eye, huh?" She muttered and laid down. "Like her own personal Frankenstein."
Andy glanced at her indifferently. "My father practically worships the ground my mother walks on. Wednesday says she doesn't believe in love, but. . .I would say whoever falls in love with her understands her better than she understands herself."
Kennedy listened closely while staring at the ceiling. "Right. That sounds like her." She muttered to herself. She turned her head to the side again. "So you can talk about love but don't admit your own feelings?"
Andy rolled her eyes. "Good night, Kennedy."
She reached over and turned off the lamp, hearing her laugh in the darkness.













The next morning, Andy and Wednesday sat together in the science laboratory. "So what did you find out?" She kept her voice low. 
"The monster's been taking body parts from its victims. The first was a kidney, the second a finger, third a gallbladder. And the bearded man from the meeting house? Two toes. See a pattern?" Wednesday explained.
"Gosh. So what's it's doing? Gathering body parts to make a supper human? Some kind of Frankenstein type of thing?"
"I don't know for sure. We have to keep digging and find out."
"While most plants reward their pollinators with sweet nectar, many carnivores varieties turn to sexual trickery or deception," Ms. Thornhill lectured. "The orchid produces a pheromone that mimics a female insect, luring the males in. Now, once the plant is pollinated, what do the male insects get in exchange?"
"Nada. Just like all the guys at the Rave'N," said Bianca sarcastically, earning some snickers from the girls in the classroom. 
Andy grew up hearing more about the Rave'N from her mother than anything else she did at Nevermore. It was a dance, a night for all of the Nevermore students to let loose and be themselves for a night. In theory, it sounded fun, but for Andy, she never experienced a school dance before. She didn't know the first thing about it.
Besides, she didn't have a date. 
Once class was let out, Kennedy gathered the sisters and Enid and they walked outside in a group. "Okay, we're going to Jericho today, so you know what that means?" She led with.
"Dress shopping!" Enid squealed.
The Addams sisters looked appalled. "I'm probably not going to go," Andy said out loud.
Kennedy scoffed. "Oh, shut up. Of course you're going."
"We have better things to do than risk getting poisoned by spiked punch and breathing in the scent of sweaty teenagers," Wednesday described bluntly.
"Like what? Examining your Ted Bundy mood board?" Said Enid. "Come on, it's the Rave'N! You guys can't miss it!"
"We don't even have dates."
"Neither do we," said Kennedy and she shrugged. "Maybe we can all go as a group? Who needs men when you have your ladies?"
"As enticing as all of this sounds, I need to talk to Andy about something. We'll catch up with you guys," said Wednesday. She grabbed Andy's arm and pulled her away from them.
