Work Text:
As soon as Zoe was resurrected, the first thing she saw was Kyle's watery, happy eyes, surrounded by Cordelia, Myrtle, and Queenie. She hugged him, happy to feel his big warm arms around her. She was also happy to learn that Cordelia had eyes again and was the new Supreme, though one question nagged at her: where was Madison ?
Cordelia looked at her sadly, while Kyle, impassive, told her eye to eye everything that had happened : her roommate's refusal to take her back and her escape to who knows where. Zoe's emotions upon hearing this became confused. On the one hand, it hardly surprised him coming from the former actress, but on the other, it was still quite hurtful. She should have expected it : there is no one Madison loves more than herself, and it was a hard fact that Zoe must have taken a long time to swallow. She wanted so badly to see the good in her roommate, to see something other than a spoiled, selfish, cruel girl. She had seen him after she was raped by the Fraternity, she saw the traumatized and scared little girl who asked for nothing but the affection that her own mother and Hollywood had deprived her of. She'd seen it when they'd slept together, how she'd pushed Kyle right aside and started to pleasure him, the soft sensations of her lips and hands racing through her body... And yet, after that she tried to steal Kyle from her and killed Misty, she had to recognize that she was exactly what Queenie, Cordelia, and Myrtle had warned him. But that didn't matter anymore, did it ?
She was gone, probably returned Los Angeles, without telling him anything, so what's the point of dwelling on that ? So she pushed the whole thing away, accepting Cordelia's offer to be on her council and become a teacher. And then they had to execute Myrtle yet again, much to her sadness. She should now be careful, because now that the coven has been made public, they should be on their guard. They were not immune to further attack from hunters or religious fanatics of any kind. She should also welcome new witches, teach them magic and help them master their powers. There were so many that they had to buy the old Ramsey House next door to house witches. In short, a lot of work. And yet, she kept thinking about Madison.
Why had she left like that ? Why hadn't she called him ?
She needed to know that. Need to find her and talk to her. Telling her what a selfish bitch she was, spitting her meanness in her face, maybe slapping her for being an idiot, then maybe hugging her and maybe kiss...
No. Let's not think about that.
She wanted answers. That's all. So she started looking. Kyle disagreed. He was trying to dissuade her. Told her that Madison wasn't worth caring about, that she didn't deserve Zoe's attention, but she was still stubborn. She called the other girl's cell phone, to no avail. Tried contacting her on her social media, but still nothing (if she had been more careful, she would have seen that it had been weeks since Zoe was brought back that she hadn't updated her Instagram and Facebook accounts, a very strange coincidence)
So she decided she had to go to L.A Madison had often told her that she knew people there, that there was even a hotel where she used to stay when her mother was really getting too boring at home (which is almost all the time). Maybe they can fill her in. Kyle disagreed. He had clearly told her. Despite Zoe's explanations, he hadn't wanted to hear anything and had gone into a corner. Queenie was less vehement, but still a little. Cordelia looked at her with affection and pity.
“I understand how you feel, she told him when she told him about her project.
"Really ? Zoe asked.
“You and Madison had always had a pretty ambiguous relationship from what I've seen. I thought you would have positively influenced him. For a moment I believed it. But when she was resurrected the first time, I saw that something changed. Something inside her snapped and a dark part took over.
Zoe had noticed. After her first resurrection, Madison had become even more cold and cruel.
"After being brought back Cordelia continued, she was even more determined to be Supreme by any means." Surely she thought that she would be safe that way, that no one would so bad. It's what she always wanted and what her mother denied her : independence.
“You act like you know her very well. Zoe said.
"I won't brag about it. But Madison was the first to come here, and believe me, she wasn't always so bitchy until Queenie and Nan came along. She liked to be the center of attention, she also liked that I was her only teacher. She also loved having my affection.
"Did she see you as a…a kind of mother ?"
" Maybe.
Cordelia's gaze grew wistful and sad. Zoe knew that Cordelia always wanted to have a child, and that her many failed attempts were very painful for her, increasingly undermining her own confidence, more and more than Fiona's harsh comments and Nan's successive disappearances and Queenie's departure. further undermined her self-confidence. But now she was Supreme, the head of a huge coven, and she was no longer under the control of her horrible mother
“Look, I'll have to go to LA to meet a few people there. We'll stay there for a while, so as a council member, I'll take you there. You can do your research there.
“Thank you Cordelia.
She told Kyle, who still put on a weird face, but half-heartedly agreed. They then tried to have sex to console themselves a bit that they wouldn't see each other again for a while, but something seemed odd to Zoe. There was already the distance between them because of the Madison subject, but also something else. A lack. Something that was wrong and did not suit him. So she preferred to stop everything. Kyle wasn't happy, but hey, it wouldn't change much. That night, Kyle's arms were even tighter than usual around her, his weight too heavy and almost suffocating. Zoe still managed to fall asleep.
Madison's hands were around her, touching her, stroking her, loving her. Their legs entwined, skin to skin, the sweat of their lovemaking sticking to their bodies and making them shiny. They
squirmed in bed until they climaxed. Zoe kissed her partner, claiming her mouth like his. It was so good, so sweet, so...
Suddenly, Madison crumbled into dust in front of her, leaving her alone in bed. Zoe didn't understand what had happened. Everything became dark and dark, cold and threatening, and she was now alone, much to her sadness. She heard Madison's fearful voice calling her, asking her for help, but Zoe couldn't figure out where she was.
"Zoe, I'm so sorry ! Please help me!"
Madison was in pain, in pain, and Zoe couldn't help it. Madison was in so much pain, and Zoe couldn't do anything to help her.
Zoe woke up with a start at that moment. She felt sick. A small tear fell from her eyes, but she swept it away.
L.A was a big city bustling with activity. One of the cultural capitals of the country. Zoe however hated that there were so many people and activity around her, suffocating her. She had been wrong to dress so warmly in her signature hat, but right now that was the least of her worries. She headed for one of the places Madison had told her about. A hair salon in Santa Moncia run by a gay man named Mr. Malcolm Gallant. As she entered, she noticed a man in his thirties with blonde hair dyed blonde, dressed in ease and with a silk scarf around his neck. Instantly, she recognized him.
"Hello," she said.
Gallant turned to her. He looked her up and down, staring at her hair for an extremely awkward moment.
"Have you made an appointment ?" he asked.
"No, actually, I'd like to know if you've seen Madison Montgormery, because...
“Oh ! Maddie ! he exclaimed. How's my favorite actress ? And it's been less that she hasn't updated its networks. It's not normal, she always took the time to post something on Instagram normally. Or call me if she wanted drugs or anything. Besides, as long as I think about it, she has to pay me back.
"Actually, I would like to know if you had seen her.
Gallant looked at her like she was an idiot, which deeply upset Zoe.
“Not seen for at least three years. Are you deaf or dumb ? Note with this haircut, you have the perfect look of the little schoolgirl who can't see beyond the good of her nose.
No need to be so rude.
“Her mother has already come to question me, and I told him the same thing.
“Are they still in contact ?
"Nope. They didn't talk to each other after Madison went to that all-girls school in Louisiana. School for witches.
Zoe felt bad. She had just lost her only lead. Gallant noticed him, and told her :
“Listen, I'm done in a few hours. We'll have a drink behind the shop and we'll tell each other stories stories about Maddie.
“We weren't friends. My grandmother once invited him to dinner, and it was the fact that she found him unbearable that made us grow closer. I didn't really know her well, but I was perhaps the closest thing she had to a confidant. In fact I don't really know. She asked me for the hull, I gave it to her, and afterwards, she told me everything that was wrong in her life, and frankly, there was a lot of stuff. We went to gay bars, but she still refused to engage in a lesbian relationship. It was hard to pin down this girl.
It is sure.
Gallant and Zoe were on a table under an umbrella behind Gallant's living room. He had a beer in his hand and she had a simple glass of water.
“She hired me as her personal stylist for a movie, I think it was a thriller about Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker. That's where I got to see his mother harpy. She was really a bitch with her. She got 70% of the money Maddi made, which she spent on drugs, clothes, and guys. When that bitch went to jail and she finally got access to all her money, it was maybe the best day of her life. So when she was offered to enter this school of witches, she jumped at the chance. She wanted her independence, to be able to go out with whoever she wanted, male or female. Especially women. I don't know where she is. I hope nothing serious happened to her.
"Me too," Zoe whispered sadly.
"Are you really sure you don't want me to fix that hair for you ? Because I'm telling you honey, it's despicable."
She then accepted a drink of alcohol before having to leave, not wanting to waste her time with this... moron. She understood a little why Madison was so fond of commenting on her hair given her dating.
Three weeks later, back in Robichaux, Zoe had returned to teaching. She was trying to think of something other than Madison Montgomery for a change, although it was really hard, especially the night she was crushed in Kyle's arms staring wistfully at her roommate's empty, unused bed. She hadn't even had the courage to pull the sheets off, so Kyle had done it for her. Staring at the unused bed, she remembered how Madison slept, back to her, in nothing but scraps of fabric as underwear that really didn't hide anything, her golden silk hair spread out on the pillow, and snoring lightly. She remembered how she teased her about it in the morning and Madison tried to deny it, still blaming Queenie.
She felt Kyle's slightly painful grip on her. She knows he can't always control his strength, she had seen it first hand, but sometimes it could be quite scary. He can so easily hurt someone, especially if he thinks she's being threatened. Zoe recalls a day when a arrogant witch named Gloria was in her class when Kyle was sweeping through it. The girl was about a year younger than her, and loved to brag about her electrokinesis powers. Once she had accidentally electrified Zoe. . It was an accident, but Kyle acted a little threatening towards her, growling at her and grabbing her arm a little too roughly, leaving marks on it. The witch had gone to complain to Cordelia who simply called Kyle to order. Since then, Gloria hasn't come to her classes, not wanting the one she called "Benson's rabid dog" to hurt her again. Zoe had ignored it at the time because the other girl was really insufferable and should have been careful, but looking back, she couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if Kyle got a little too carried away. Zoe refused to believe he could have killed her. He couldn't have. Nope ?
Eventually, after two months, she set out to find any item that might have belonged to her former roommate to try and use divination on. Queenie before ends by giving up trying to discourage her seeing that it was useless. Kyle on the other hand grew increasingly frustrated with Zoe's obsession. Several times they had argued about it, and once Kyle was so angry that he threw a vase on the ground, which did not fail to scare the witch. When these searches proved fruitless, Queenie came to her.
"Listen, I know I can't talk you out of stopping looking for the queen of bitches, so I'll try to help you."
"Would you do that for me ?"
"Sure idiot, that's what friends do."
So they found a spell to practice in a tub of ice water. Zoe will be in it and Queenie will hold her underwater for a while and combine her magic with his. It wasn't very glamorous, but she was desperate. So this is it. They pronounced the spell, and Zoe then returned to the past. And that's where everything changed. She watched Madison pack her bags to leave Robichaux, then watched in horror as Kyle strangled and suffocated the other girl, smothering all the life in her body under his mighty hands, until her lips turned blue and her eyes froze. of horror and despair. Then she watched Spalding's ghost advising Kyle to cut up Madison's body, destroy all her belongings, and lie to him about the actress' horrific fate.
At first, Zoe tried to deny what she sees. Then the more she thinks about it, the more she remembers Kyle's weird reaction when she mentioned that she had to look for Madison. She remembered his look filled with rage but also a small trace of guilt. Guilt for taking Madison from Zoe. Coming out of the tub, she collapsed on Queenie, crying on her shoulder, feeling guilty that she hadn't seen the obvious signs that Madison had been killed and left her assassin slept with her. She didn't even know why she was crying for her. Did she have feelings for Madison all this time ? Actually it didn't matter, because it was too late now.
They told everything to Cordelia, who obviously wasn't happy at all. Despite all of Madison's actions, all of her mean comments, her diva attitude that had infuriated her so much, she still had some affection for the child star. Maybe because, as they suggested, Madison didn't have a happy childhood with her mother so maybe Cordelia tried in her own way to fill that hole, maybe because she knew what how it felt to be humiliated and bullied by your own mother, or just because Madison was one of those coven, and that the punishment for killing a witch, even if that witch was Madison, was death. There were
no exceptions. Myrtle was a good example.
So when Kyle came back to their room, grinning stupidly. Zoe was there, waiting for him, her eyes cold and her face stained with tears. Seeing Kyle's silly smile after she found out what he had done, Zoe felt boiled. Immediately, Kyle felt the tension in the air.
He squirmed at the dark, almost murderous glare Zoe gave him, then, with a scream, she pinned Kyle to the wall with her telekinesis.
"Why ?! Why did you kill her ?
"What are you talking about ? Kyle squealed.
“Don't play the innocent !
She tossed it against their bedside table like a rag. Kyle struggled to his feet, staring at Zoe in terror.
"You killed her !" Zoe said coldly. You killed Madison !
The realization dawned on Kyle's face.
"I…I did it for you !" he said. I can explain everything...
“You lied to me asshole ! she screamed. You watched me for months trying to find her, you watched me go to Los Angeles, you watched me the whole time and you never said anything.
"I did it for you," he begged. For us. I love you.
Quickly, she used her telekinesis to suspend him in the air.
“I never asked you to do such a thing. You cut his body like meat for God's sake !
"No ! he yelled. It's... it was his idea... that of...
Then suddenly, Zoe felt someone hit her from behind. She collapsed, stunned. Instantly, Kyle was free to move, and stared at Spalding towering above Zoe.
"I didn't think that bitch had so many admirers," the ghost said with disgust.
He leaned toward Zoe, and Kyle immediately stepped between them.
"No !
"Boy,' he said, 'I admire how protective you feel of her, but face it : she prefers her little blonde bitch to you.
Kyle looked sadly at the stunned Zoe. He had made a mistake lying to her. But he never wanted to hurt her. Was he wrong from the start ?
Suddenly, Queenie and Cordelia stormed into the room, immobilizing Kyle and scaring the phantom butler away. Queenie rushed to an unconscious Zoe.
After some healing, Zoe was on her feet again. Cordelia told him Spalding had it knocked out, and that she was right that he took her under his wing. Immediately, the witches went to visit the attic where their former butler lived. They already knew that he kept a whole collection of creepy dolls, but what they saw could have been a scene from a horror movie: among all these dolls stood a small infant, dressed for the other dolls. It was downright creepy.
"I found... Queenie exclaimed, oh my god..."
Queenie was hunched over a strange trunk. Zoe then remembered what Spalding had done the first time to Madison when Fiona had murdered her. A feeling of dread filled her, and she had to force herself to walk towards her friend to see what she had discovered was horrible. Well she definitely shouldn't have: there, in the trunk, were Madison's decomposing head. There Zoe don't couldn't hold it in any longer, and went to vomit.
Many weeks after, they have so much works.
First, they returned the child to his parents, who thanked them a thousand times, and it was even mentioned in the newspapers ''The witches save a young missing child''. A good publicity stunt that Cordelia was quite proud of. It was always helpful. And that was the only positive thing that happened. They are had to bury Madison. Zoe didn't have the strength to participate. Cordelia and surprisingly Queenie get away with it charged. The living voodoo doll even came to her.
"I hated that bitch so much," she told him. But she didn't deserve to end up like this. I'm sorry Zoe.
Spalding's spirit was banished to hell, and his dolls sold or destroyed. Then she had to resolve: Kyle had to die. When the day of his execution came, during the whole procedure, he was crying, begging Zoe, asking her forgiveness, but Zoe wouldn't even look at him. To be honest, she no longer had the strength. She didn't want to see another person she cared about die again.
Then, he had to resolve to accept his fate, told him one last "I love you" before let the flames devour him.
For days Zoe was inconsolable. She cried so much that by force she couldn't even for physical tears. She couldn't help but feel guilty, that it was all her fault. If she hadn't felt so bad for Kyle Madison would never have insisted on bringing him back, and he would never have murdered Madison. Their deaths will weigh on his shoulders forever. Days passed, and then finally, tired of shutting herself in four walls, Zoe came out and started teaching again. But it was no longer the same. She hid all her pain behind a mask of authority and benevolent and encouraging smiles. Anything that could help her forget his pain. She was happy with her students, happy to see them flourish in their new home, their coven. It worked. For his students, the act was believable. But Queenie and Cordelia, of course, saw very
well how the latest events had broken a few things in her.
The time passed. The coven grows. Cordelia was increasingly leaving for meetings with various personalities and politicians on behalf the coven. Queenie is going to participate in a game show in Los Angeles. She had already bought the plane tickets and reserved a great hotel completely renovated by a stylist, Will Drake.
She immediately remembered that Madison was a huge fan of her work.
And then, as if out of nowhere, Mallory arrived, and turned...everything upside down. She brought Misty and Nan back, and Zoe is so happy to see the kind necromancer alive again. But nothing could compare to the overwhelming joy Cordelia felt at finally seeing her again. For days, the two women spent time together, and Zoe began to suspect that there was something between the two witches.
Once all that joy wore off, Zoe became very curious about Mallory. The new witch has an exceptional talent for magic, especially for a witch of her level. A very powerful power. But there was something strange in that. Besides, Mallory was hanging around like she knew her, even though she had only been there two weeks. Really, Zoe began to suspect that something was wrong with this girl. Besides, why did she tell
Queenie not to go to the Hotel Cortez ? His excuse had not convinced her for a second. So once Queenie returned, she told him of her concerns.
"It's true that there is something wrong with her. Why did she tell me to go to another hotel ? The Cortez looks so luxurious, I don't understand. Maybe it's because of what happened with that serial killer; John Lowe. And then she acts like she knows us all personally. But I don't think it's bad. It would feel if it was.
Zoe then left, and that's when she heard voices. They were Misty's and Mallory's. What was strange is that Misty seemed angry (so rare coming from her) with Mallory. But why ?
She managed to hear a few snippets of their conversations :
"You didn't have to decide that she stay in hell!" She saved you from that Michael Langdon ! Misty exclaimed.
Who is Michael Langdon ?
"I know, I know," Mallory said, "but she screwed up by not telling us everything about him. And then...
"And then what ?
“She still behaved like a bitch.
" That's not an excuse !
"She killed you !"
There, Zoe stepped back.
They still can't talk about...
“I hit him for that, and that was enough for me. I refuse to leave her in this horrible place any longer.
Zoe had had enough, and entered.
“Are you talking about Madison? Why ? Who is Michael Langdon ? Who are you Mallory ? What the fuck are you talking about ?!
The two witches gave each other a strange look. After a minute of silence, Misty shook her head and said to Zoe :
“Go get Queenie and Cordelia. You all need to know that.
So she did. Then Mallory told them all about Michael Langdon, the Apocalypse, their slaughtered coven, and Madison sacrificing herself so Mallory could use the Tempus Infinitum (something we thought was impossible) The three witches were speechless by so much information. Then Queenie and Cordelia bombarded Mallory with questions, which the young witch tried to answer as best she could, but only one thing remained in Zoe's mind.
She left Madison in hell after she sacrificed herself for her ?
So, angry and sad, she rushed at Mallory and stuck a violent right. The younger witch collapsed in shock at Zoe's brutality as she was restrained by Queenie and Misty.
“Dirty little bitch ! she cried. You better bring her back NOW if you don't want me to burn you at the stake !
Mallory nodded shyly, beginning to realize that she was wrong to wait to bring Madison back. She rubbed the black eye that Zoe had stuck on her, and got to work.
Cordelia ordered Zoe to go calm down in her room, which she did, not without giving Mallory a final warning.
So she waited. The minutes seemed to stretch into hours for Zoe. And finally, she heard the door open, and...
It was just Queenie.
“I want you to know that I, too, disagree with what Mallory did. Is it okay at least ? So many things have happened to you lately.
Zoe nodded.
"Thank you for worrying Queenie, but it's okay, I'm holding on."
Her friend nodded.
"As soon as she comes back, we tell her to come here," she was promised the living voodoo doll.
So Zoe waited. He waited. Again and again. She was totally oblivious to the noises around her. What was she going to be able to say to him? Should she slap her for her shitty behavior towards her? Hug her in her arms because she still considered her her friend.
Or else the...
Then the door opened, Zoe turned around, and there she saw her. After spending nearly two years looking for her, mourning her, she was finally back. She wore the same outfit as before she disappeared. Still as beautiful as before, her silky hair flowing in a beautiful golden wave behind her back, her emerald green eyes, once filled with wickedness and sarcasm, now shone with a sweet vulnerability and a heartpounding fear. of Zoe. Madison stood awkwardly, as if she didn't know if she was welcome in this room, or even if it was all real.
" Zoe ? she said shyly.
God, she looked so vulnerable. The shattered sparkle in her eyes might have made Zoe cry if she hadn't already shed enough tears lately. She stood up, faced Madison, just staring at her, memorizing every detail of her face in case she might disappear again. Which won't happen again, she would make sure.
"I'm sorry," Madison said.
Zoe couldn't hold back any longer and took the girl in her arms, holding her tightly, stroking her hair and breathing in her sweet scent. Madison clung to her tightly, like she was going to go to hell again if she let go of Zoe. She felt a few tears running down her shirt.
Madison's tears.
“Hush,” Zoe calmed her.
She cupped Madison's face in her hand.
“You have nothing to fear now. I am here, and never again will I let anyone or anything take you away from me. Never again.
Madison nodded, then they fell back into their embrace.
A feast was organized in honor of the two girls who had returned to their coven. Much to Misty's insistence, they had Fleetwood Mac for dinner. Zoe was sitting directly across from Madison, who had barely touched her plate. During the day, Queenie and Madison went shopping together to replace all of the former actress' lost wardrobe. Queenie had told him that the other witch seemed to him to be off the whole way. His comments were less biting than before, she was tired, crawling behind her, smoking five cigarettes every minute. Queenie wouldn't even respond to her insults, even looking at her with pity. During the meal Madison had put on her bitchy child star mask, throwing annoyed glances at anyone who looked at her a little too closely. Eventually, Madison decided to go back up to their room, and Zoe followed her.
Just outside the door, Zoe was overwhelmed by the horrible smell of her roommate's Marlboro Red cigarettes.
She had to hide packages in her room.
And sure enough, she found the other girl sitting on her bed, smoking a cigarette and occasionally coughing.
Zoe was worried that she was going back to smoking so recently after being revived.
"What are you watching Beanstalk ?!" Madison spat at him, coughing up some smoke.
Zoe didn't even answer. She approached her roommate, took the cigarette from her hands, and put it to his mouth before taking a puff. The horrible taste and unfamiliar sensation made her cough in turn. Madison took her cigarette again.
“Stop Zoe, it's going to kill you.
“So why are you taking it ?
"It's different. You are important. Not me.
There, Zoe grabbed the stick of tobacco and crushed it. Madison went to reply, but Zoe interrupted her by taking her by the shoulders.
"Not. Said. More. Never. That. Never. It's wrong, and you know it.
Madison shook her head, unconvinced. She went to light another cigarette, but Zoe stopped her.
Annoyed, Madison stood up abruptly.
"What the hell are you doing Sabrina the Teenage Witch ?!"
Zoe stood up too.
"My problem is that I refuse to see you die of lung cancer when you have just come back ! I refuse to go through this again Madison, you understand ?!
Madison seemed surprised at the other witch's tone.
"Where's Kyle anyway ? she asked. I hope he's not hiding to try to rip me off the head.
"He is dead. We burned it.
Madison blinked several times. She was both surprised to know that and surprised that Zoé would say it so abruptly.
She could have said a thousand things, like why they burned it or why Zoe said it in such a blunt way, but instead she stayed true to herself and said :
“It must have been hard for you to watch your dear zombie pooch burn. Sorry for you.
“I denounced him.
Madison was speechless, looking at Zoe as if seeing her for the first time. Then she laughs.
“I don't believe a word of it. You loved him so much, why would you ?
Zoe moved closer to Madison, so much that the former actress fell on her buttocks on her bed.
“I did it, because he killed you. I did, because he lied to my face. I did it, because he watched me look for you for months and never said anything to me. I did it because... what he did...
Zoe stopped herself from crying in front of Madison.
“I didn't even know why I wanted to look for you. Ever since we met you've been an insufferable, mean and cruel bitch with everyone for no reason. I don't know why I wanted to see you so much. For you to give me some fucking explanation about why you left, why you left me, or hug you because I missed you. I... I don't know.. help me understand Madison...
Madison closed her eyes, remembering the moment she had left Zoe's body like that, lifeless, dead. When she saw him again, she mentally kicked herself for being so stupid and selfish.
"Because I didn't want once you came back you were in Frankenkyle's arms. I wanted to become Supreme, and bring you back, because I wanted to be the one to do it, and because I wanted you to look at me as Supreme, and then, maybe, I don't know, maybe you would have... you would have me...
" What ? What would I have done ?
Madison gulped. She hesitated to say it, she was so scared. Afraid Zoe would definitely reject her if she said why.
“You would have loved me... and not your stupid pet zombie.
Zoe's eyes widened. Madison reaches out and tucks a lock of Zoe's hair behind her ear.
“When I brought Kyle back, I wanted you to be grateful. That you are affectionate towards me. Said it's stupid or whatever, I know it is. I thought that way you would have loved me. But I was wrong. So I came up with this fucking threesome so I could finally be with you. But you always stayed close to Kyle, he was the only one who mattered to you, and me... me, I just wanted you to hold me. I fucked him because I wanted to feel something, but honestly Zoe, when we did, the only person I thought about was you. It was you I wanted inside of me and not Kyle. It's your arms that I would have liked to feel around me and your lips on mine. So I thought that if I was the Supreme, and I saved you, I would finally be up to it, and then maybe there would finally be a chance for you to finally love me.
Madison could hardly hold back her tears. She stared at Zoe with hurt puppy eyes, expecting the other witch to reject her completely and break her heart.
But instead, Zoe leaned down towards her, grabbed her face, and crushed their lips together.
Falling into bed with her is so easy. As easy as the first time when every kiss was just a hesitant caress, and Madison always wanted more, but didn't have it. But there she is Zoe were alone, together, finally. They ripped off their clothes quickly, wanting to feel the gentle touch skin-to-skin they could only feel once. And it was as if neither of them had forgotten how to touch the other, how to please them. Madison nibbled on Zoe's earlobe, making her moan, then began to leave a kiss mark along her neck and jawline, towards her breasts.
“Oh fuck,” moaned Zoe. Mad, please, I want you...
Madison was happy to obey.
And after climaxing respectively and cuddling, totally naked, Zoe rested her head on Madison's chest, kissing one nipple before saying :
"I love you too.
Madison thought she was going to cry, so instead she put an arm around Zoe, gently stroking her hair. The two girls ended up falling asleep peacefully, in the arms of one of the other.
The next morning, when Cordelia came to wake Zoe to inform her that a new witch named Coco Saint-Pierre Vanderbilt would be arriving in a few minutes, she was greeted by the sight of Madison and Zoe, snuggled together , asleep together peacefully. She smiled seeing this pretty love scene, and decided to leave their day to these two. They had clearly deserved it.
