~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You sat on your bed crying. You didn't know what to do. You wanted Sally she would have known what to do. You had this beautiful woman downstairs who wanted you, but you wanted the person who just pushed you out of her life. You started to think about the hotel. About March. You just figured out how you were going to take down March. You would get strong enough and you would destroy the hotel. One day you would get Sally out then you would burn the hotel to the ground. Gone ashes to ashes, dust to dust. You were going to do what you could to find a way to get Sally out of there. Out of that hell hole. You sat up. If you had to you were going to fake being happy and smile while here, which looked like a real possibility.

     You looked out the window behind you. There were two witches walking into the building. There was a knock on the door. "Hey darling there are some people I want you to meet." She held out her hand and you hesitated in taking it, but you took it anyway totally erasing Sally from your mind for the time being. Your hand in hers you made your way downstairs to greet the witches walking into the house. "(Y/N) this is Zoe." She pointed to the shorter of the two. She had long brownish hair and was wearing a big black hat. "And this is Myrtle." She said pointing to the other. She had bright orange frizzy hair and had a fashion sense for days. You shook their hands. "Her power is strong." Zoe said. "I can feel it. It's almost radiating off of her." She walked a little closer. "Zoe dear your going to scare her." Cordelia said giving her a look. A look that said that they would talk later. "I can feel it to Delia." Myrtle said. "Now that we have introductions out of the way. These two are the other part of the council. There are three witches on the council. The supreme is one then two other powerful witches are seated next to her. These were my choices." She gestured to Myrtle and Zoe. "I wouldn't of chosen anyone else." She gave a little smile. Biting her bottom lip slightly. You just stood there not really knowing what to say. "Us three will teach you everything you need to know about your powers. Except for the medium part of course. I am pretty sure you will learn that over time." She said as everyone made their way to the kitchen.

     "Where are the other girls?" Cordelia asked. "They went shopping." Zoe said as she grabbed four mugs out of the coubert and put on some hot water. Waiting for it to boil you, cordelia, and myrtle took your seats at the little round table in the corner. "Ah teens and shopping. I never really understood that." Cordelia said. "I hope they are being careful. We wouldn't want anything to happen." She looked at Zoe. Zoe looked back giving her a look that said. 'They will be fine.' Cordelia nodded her head. Understanding. "Now (Y/N) I know your new and all, but there are three very important rules I make everyone in the house live by. One you will not touch another student in an armful way. Unless in class. Two you will not leave the house after ten pm. There are watch hunters out there dear, and third you will come to me for everything. Any problems come to me. Anything else come to me. If I am unavailable go to Myrtle or Zoe. They will help you. I have these rules because I don't ever want anything to happen to my girls." She said looking around the room at everyone. "Like Cordelia said you can come to us for help with any problem.  Even stupid ones. I would go to Myrtle for those though. She's the fashion expert in the building." Zoe said as the tea kettle stated dining. She poured the water into the cups added and yes back and set one down in front of each of us. "Sugar is in front of you and the milk is in the fridge." Zoe said sitting down at the last empty seat. "I don't really know what to say. Sorry if I seem really quiet." You said. "Oh dear it's okay we understand. We hate to throw all of this on you but you need to know the rules and everything." Delia said as she put her hand on your leg. You didn't actually mind it there. Well until you started to think about the hotel again. Sally, Liz, Iris, and your mother. Oh your mother and Sally. You didn't want to think about it but you couldn't help it. Another tear slid down your cheek. "Oh honey." Cordelia said as she wiped the tear off your cheek. "It will be okay. We will find a way to get all of your friends out of that horrid building." The look on Mrytle's  face said everything you needed to know at the time. It told you that Cordelia already attempted everything g she knew. And everything she had read in the hundreds of books in her office. "There isn't a way to get them out. Is there?" You asked pulling away from Cordelia slightly. "Ah-Not one that works." She said looking away from you. "I'm sorry, but we will try to find a way out for them. Even if it means sending them to the other side." She said. "Hell no! I won't do that to Sally or Liz. Iris maybe, but not my friends. They deserve a second chance at life." She said standing up. "I need some air. Thank you for the tea." You said grabbing your cup and walking out the front door onto the front porch.

     You found a chair and sat down. Thinking through everything that just happened. You heard the floorboard creak next to you. You looked up and a little girl was standing there. 'Can you help me?' The girl said without moving her mouth at all. You looked at her a little closer. She had no eyes and her throat was slit. You screamed. "Ahhhh!" Cordelia came rushing out the door. "What's wrong?!" She asked grabbing you. "Is everything okay?" You couldn't talk. You don't want to. You never wanted to see something like that again. You buried your head in Cordelia's chest. "Okay just breath." She said stroking your hair. You were breathing in her scent and almost immediately relaxed. You didn't know what to say.

      "Let's go upstairs I have an idea." She said she grabbed your arm and gently pulled you up. You made your way through the door and up the stairs. Cordelia set you down on your bed where you brought your knees up to your chest and wrapped your arms around them. You heard the water start running. "Sweetheart get undressed. I am running a bath." She said standing the the bathroom door way. "I'll leave don't worry." She said. "You don't have to." You said taking off your clothes. "Um..Okay then." She said stepping towards you to help. "Here." She helped you pull off your shirt. You took everything else off as she handed you a towel. Wrapping it around your body you walked into the bathroom. The tub was filled with white bubbles and the clearest water you had ever seen. You slowly slid into the water letting it cover your body as you dropped the towel to the floor. You laid your head back against the ring of the tub. Letting out a sigh. You closed your eyes. You could feel someone watching you though. You opened your eyes and saw that Cordelia was watching you. "Your beautiful." She said. "I know that that is weird to say since you have only known me for a week, but I feel like i've known you. Like we have some sort of connection." She squatted next to the tub. You looked at her. You didn't say anything. You wouldn't. Not now. Not when you are so close to getting what you want. Sally doesn't want me so why can't I be happy with someone who does want me? You thought. You moved closer slowly almost unnoticeable. She did the same. Soon you two were so close less than inches apart. "Do you really want this?" You breathed. "Yes." She closed the space around the two of you. You didn't feel the spark like you did when you kissed Sally. Your lips didn't fit together right. It was all wrong, but at the time you didn't care. You wanted to forget Sally. So you did something stupid. You forgot about Sally. She just left your mind. Cordelia put her hands on your face. Pulling away from the kiss she leaned her forehead against yours. "Whoa." Was all she said. She opened your eyes to look at her. Her face was read and hot and her eyes were glowing with happiness. "Thank you." She said. As she got up and hung up the towel. "Wash yourself. You need it." She said leaving the room. "Your an ass!" you yelled smiling. You didn't know why, but you were happy right now. Maybe this is what you needed, not Sally, but Cordelia. You sat in the tub thankful for the warm water surrounding your body. Letting all your stresses go. Your body relaxed. Releasing all the tension from it. You closed your eyes. Falling asleep.
