Madison Maven 'Privilege' - The Boys

16: Screw this

Madison walked away and upstairs meanwhile Butcher talked on the phone.

Frenchie quickly followed behind and M.M looked at Frenchie go upstairs and smiled, shaking his head.

Both Kimiko and M.M looked at each other smiling,

Frenchie vowed to Madison, " i know you're not okay. it's okay to not be okay, i've been there Madison."

Madison looked at him as he stood behind her, "really?" She couldn't believe he would be but she barely knew anything about him really...

"yeah, there was a time in my life where i was at my lowest and i've done very bad things that i regret deeply. But, it's what made me be who i am, as sad as it is and as angry as it made me," Frenchie consoled her and she began tearing up.

"can i hug you?" Madison asked while she bawled and he nodded standing there not moving a muscle.

Madison walked up to him and all the tears came crashing down.

"i'm not okay. my life's a mess, frenchie- i'm not talking to my mom, i'm apart of the seven which is hell and i thought it was suppose to be a dream but a good one. i'm not naturally gifted so I'm a monster, a stupid mistake," Madison cried and Frenchie couldn't believe what she was telling herself.

It was all lies and Frenchie comforted her, "no, you are not a monster, not a mistake. it's okay to feel this way, it will get better. We are here because we are going to take down Vought and the Seven, so don't worry. Just a little more in the team and then you'll be free. Trust the process, madam."

Madison stopped hugging him and smiled at him, his intentions were pure and Madison loved the look of Frenchie, his eyes were something.

She trusted him but she still had her own issues and didn't want to put it all on him.

"-yeah okay, your right. i- need to get back to the event. Before, Homelander worries or anyone notices. i got you all everything that you needed and I'm not wanted." Madison wiped her tears and realized what a mess she was.

Frenchie looked at her and couldn't believe her, He stated with a light smile, "no—that's not true...you're very wanted here, Madison."

Madison smiled at him and knew he meant every word, Frenchie was starting to rub her the right way.

Madison smiled at waved at him, "thank you for the hug and for listening to me, Frenchie. i mean it."

Frenchie smiled at her and kept staring at her.

"if you need anything, don't hesitate. i'll put my number on your phone, if you'd like?" Frenchie asked because he really felt safer for her if he put his phone number in her phone.

And maybe...he was flirting with her just a little.

Madison didn't oppose him at all, she felt comfortable at the sight of Frenchie.

A different type of comfort.

"yes but i'll have to nickname you on my phone because it's not safe," Madison told him and he nodded as he put his number on her phone.

Frenchie smiled at her and walked back downstairs.

Madison walked away smiling because he was nice enough to hear her out and comfort her like the way she needed.

Butcher finished his phone call downstairs and M.M nagged him to let Madison into The Boys.

"cmon, Butcher. you know what to do, the girl literally saved your life...." M.M told Butcher reasons on why he needed her and maybe his ego was getting in the way of that, something he'd regret forever.
