In chapter 29, when Mary met Tom, I felt bad for making her dislike him. So the first bit is her warming up to him lol.

Mary looked down at the dog that she had placed by the closet. She felt slightly bad but the thing wasn't the most attractive and she wasn't sure if she liked the idea of a stuffed animal in the house. 

"Did you ever try to revive him?" Zelda looked up from her book. 

"Tom? No. It's doesn't do well when witches try to revive things." Mary hummed. She stood up, knowing Zelda was eyeing her behind. Mary threw on a robe and picked the dog up. 

"We should put him somewhere more suitable." Zelda raised a brow. "Like at your side of the bed." Mary place him down beside Zelda's night stand. 

"I thought you hated him?"

"Took time getting used to it." Zelda smiled, wrapping her arm around the woman's waist. She continued reading, head resting on Mary's stomach. Mary made circles on Zelda's back as she stared out the window. 

"We should have a movie night?" 
Zelda nodded. 

Mary shrugged. 

-

Zelda and Mary went out to adopt a dog. Mary had been rambling about wanting a small dog because bigger dogs scared her. Zelda was listening but she was too caught up in thinking about Mary's life span. 

"Honey? Are you listening to me?" Zelda snapped out of it, turning to face Mary. 

"Sorry. What did you say?" Mary sighed. 

"I said we should get something like a cocker spaniel." Zelda agreed. Mary grabbed her hand, giving it a comforting squeeze. 

-

Zelda opener the door and their new dog ran inside, jumping over everything. They ended up getting a cocker spaniel, which is what Mary wanted. She was tiny and hyper, reminding Zelda a bit of Mary. 

They decided to name her Bailey. 

"Isn't she the cutest?" Zelda nodded, wrapping her arms around Mary's waist. She kissed her cheek bone. 

"I'm excited to have a dog again. Tom died years and years ago." Mary leaned back into Zelda. 

Zelda continued kissing her cheek, down to her neck. 
"Zelda." 

"What?" 

"No." Mary moved away, heading to the kitchen. 

"Why are you like this?" Zelda followed after her. 

"I just...can't you wait till tonight?" Zelda nodded. 

-

Mary curled up to Zelda, Bailey laying on the other couch. The Hunger was playing on the television. 

"Ugh, Catherine Deneuve is so hot." Mary mumbled under her breath. Zelda looked up at her but didn't say anything. 

"Popcorn?" Mary nodded, not letting her eyes leave the screen. 

Zelda got up and headed to the kitchen. She put a bag of popcorn in the microwave. She watched the movie from the doorway. 

After a few minutes, the popcorn was finished. Zelda poured it into a bowl and made her way back to Mary. 

"Here." 

"Thank you." Mary dug into the bowl, stuffing her mouth. 

A hot scene between Catherine and Susan came on. 

Mary didn't move her eyes away from the screen. Zelda looked at her and was shocked to see Mary biting her lip. 

"Damn." 

"Did you just say 'damn'?" Mary nodded slowly. 

"I mean...there both so hot." Zelda furrowed her brows. She sat up, leaning on the right arm of the couch. 

"Are they now?" 

"No one can top Catherine." Zelda raised her brows. 

"Mary!" 

"What?" Mary looked at her, brow raised. 

"No one can top her? Well that's nice to know." 

"Oh Zelda. You know you're the only woman for me! Can't I think other women are attractive?" Zelda sighed. 

"I've never heard you say anything like that before. Besides I don't think other women are attractive." 

Mary scoffed, "you don't think, out of all the women on the planet, that there is one more attractive than me?" Zelda shook her head. 
"Well you are lying." 

"No I'm not!" 

"Sure." Mary turned her attention back to the screen. "I don't see the problem on me having a little crush." 

"Crush?" 

"Yeah. She's really attractive."

"Why don't you go fuck her instead of me!" Zelda sat up. Mary sighed. 

"Zelda! Come back!" Zelda slammed the bedroom door. "Your so jealous." Mary mumbled. 
"Zee! Open the door!" 

"No." 

"Why not? You know I wouldn't fuck anyone else other than you! I love you." Zelda opened the door but just so her head was the only thing Mary could see. 

"You wouldn't?" 

"Nooo! Now come watch the rest of the movie with me." Zelda sighed, giving in. Mary took her hand, leading her back onto the couch. 

Zelda relaxing back, Mary sitting on her lap. Zelda's hands ran up and down her sides. 

"Do you still want to-" 

"Yes."

"Fast reply." Mary chuckled, leaning back. Zelda wrapped her arms around the woman, holding her close. 

Mary has a bit of a crush on Catherine Deneuve lol.
Also, can't wait to write more about Bailey. Zelda hasn't had a dog in awhile lol.
