Before Miss Peregrine found them, Enoch and Y/N were a disaster waiting to happen. Their families thought an arranged union would bring strength, stability and, foolishly, peace. Enoch, cold and sarcastic, couldn’t stand Y/N’s sharp tongue and fiery spirit. Every conversation ended in a shouting match, every glance a battle of wills. They hated each other,it was the only thing they agreed on. Y/N had buried the ring in the back yard. Enoch never dug it up.

When Miss Peregrine found them both lost,and angry. She brought them into the loop, where time stood still. Years passed, but not their loathing. Enoch ignored Y/N in the halls. Y/N sabotaged his experiments. He called her unbearable; she called him insufferable.

And then Jake Portman arrived. Jake quickly noticed the tension between the two peculiars.

“Did something happen between you two?” he asked one day.

Enoch scoffed. “She ruined my life.”

“He existed” Y/N replied dryly.

Jake blinked. “So… childhood trauma?”

“Arranged marriage,” they said in unison, both voices annoyed.

However,between the insults and eye-rolls, they never left eachother behind. Not in fights,or in storms. Not even when the hollows came. the line between love and hate is thin
