    Summary

    Falling and swooning into something soft, something warm, something that feels like home. That's not what they had. They tumbled down a steep cliff of shattered glass to get here. Bloodied, bruised and desperate for more. Pleading to make the exquisite pain of their love never end.

    Something not even death could take from them.

    Summary

    Helen soon after turns to Madeline, staring daggers into her with her teeth bared. “Next time, I won’t be so nice.”

    Madeline’s face contorts into a disgusting, mocking smile in response. “I knew you didn’t have it in you,” the blonde spits at the redhead.

    Those words only fill Helen with even more rage. Who is Madeline to think that Helen was still the same weak and mousy woman from before? Helen is a changed woman now; unlike her old self, she would never let Madeline walk all over her anymore. Never again.

    So, in an unthinkable, impulsive act that her old self would have never dared to do, Helen forcefully grabs the blonde’s face and kisses her ferociously. Fuck it. If Madeline was going to fuck Helen over for twenty years and counting, Helen might as well fuck with her too, in her last moments before death.

    -OR-

    In a moment of sheer madness, Helen kisses Madeline just before pushing her down the stairs to her death.

    Summary

    As Madeline’s eyes widened in fear and Helen’s fingers tightened around her shoulders, it wasn’t Madeline “life ruiner” Ashton who was staring back at her.
    It was just Mad, her best friend.
    Or
    Apparently we got a MadHel kiss at the 8/12 performance of DBH, and my gay ass wanted to write an angsty fic about it.

    Summary

    After three days, Helen still hadn’t seen a whisper of Madeline. The house was large enough for both of them to roam around as they pleased without coming into contact with one another. And yet, it was rare for even an hour to pass without a “Hel?” or “Mad?” reverberating off the walls.

    Helen felt more guilty than she’d like to admit. As frustrating as it was that Madeline often ignored all concepts of personal space, she hadn’t exactly committed a crime.

    Still. She could have left Helen alone, could have known that Helen just needed a distraction away from her, could have peeked through the door looking less goddamn marvelous, with bright eyes and damp lips that made Helen want to—

    Shit.

    Or, Madeline disappears after an argument, with Helen left behind to pick up the pieces and put them back together.

    Summary

    It was true. She hated that it was true. She loathed that she was a fading star, an aging beauty that was still trying to hold on to the glory days she had, the days before the roles that came across her desk were of mothers and a few grandmothers, she missed her golden era, she missed being able to play the eternal ingenue, she tried to hold on to that persona for as long as she could. It all faded away, everything was slowly falling apart. Not a single role booked in over a decade, her last offer was an infomercial for fucks sake.

    She was Madeline fucking Ashton. Two time Oscar Nominee. Recipient of multiple Razzie Awards.

    Pathetic girl from Newark.

    Summary

    “You’re staring at me.”

    Helen can’t help the way she giggles.

    She especially can’t help the way she flushes when Madeline looks at her like that.

    “Can you blame me? You look like a fucking vision.”

    Madeline does too, Helen thinks, with her pretty blonde hair and her skin slightly bronzed from the sun, and Helen is especially fond of the way her eyes crinkle at the corners where the foundation has worn off her face throughout the day. She can see the errant freckles peeking out from beneath her makeup and it makes her look so young that Helen’s heart clenches just a bit.

    Summary

    Sometimes the hardest promises are the ones we make to ourselves — and to those we’ve hurt.

    When Madeline crosses the line that breaks her lifelong friendship with Helen, she never imagined the cost. Years later, a secret pregnancy forces them to confront a tangled past, where promises were made, broken, and painfully kept. As Helen guards her heart and her child, Madeline must prove that forgiveness is more than a word — it’s a promise worth fighting for.
