THE FIRST CHAPTER
"Go get Mami," Homura said suddenly to the pinkette.
"B-but Homura…"
"GO!" the Raven haired girl shouted as she jumped at the witch.
The Pinkette had been running through this particular witch labyrinth with her four friends for about an hour, this witch wasn't a regular witch, it was stronger.
Kyouko had tried to talk the other three magical girls out of coming but the situation was to dire, then she tried to argue the fact that they shouldn't bring a non-magical girl-like Madoka- into the labyrinth with them. Unfortunately, though the other four had listened, they had no other choice but to go, and bring Madoka along as a last resort.
Why didn't we listen to her, why were we being so stubborn?
"Mado-!"
What was that noise? And that familiar and ominous voice, was it who she thought it was?
"MADOK-!"
She had a booming, cracking headache all of a sudden, it was like someone was piercing a spear into her head.
"MADOKA!" the Raven haired girl screamed with tears running down her face.
What is it Homura? Do you need to tell me something?
Madoka jolted awake, covered in sweat, her hair a mess. Homura, Kyouko, Sayaka & Mami surrounded her, all of them with tears running down their face, even Bebe was on top of her head, looking sincerely worried.
"Someone get her some water!"
What's wrong with me? Was that a dream?
"Here," Kyouko said as she handed the pinkette a full glass of water.
Madoka realized that she had been hyperventilating, she wasn't able to talk, her breath was quick and unsteady. She grabbed for the cold drink and gulped it down easily, her throat was dry and sore.
"W-w-water" Madoka said the loudest and steadiest possible.
"Madoka, take a few deep breathes," Mami told the anxious girl as Kyouko went to get another glass of water.
After the pinkette calmed down the other four started to explain what had happened, everyone had calmed down and stopped crying, except Homura, who was particularly worried about Madoka.
"Madoka, you were attacked by the witch we were fighting, we planned to tell you to make a contract with Kyubey, but then…." Sayaka said.
"You passed out," Kyouko said as she entered the room with a full glass of water, "you were hyperventilating in your sleep, like you were having a nightmare, you were starting to convulse when we got back here, it's a miracle that we defeated the witch in time."
"T-then t-that wasn't a dream?" I asked.
"Dream?" Homura asked after finally calming down.
So…all that really happened….
"Never mind, it isn't a problem."
[Homura's apartment] a few hours later
"What do you guys want for dinner?" Sayaka asked, her and Kyouko were trying to learn to cook.
"Katsudon!" I suggested.
"Katsudon it is!" Kyouko said excitedly.
They all sat down at the table for tea after dinner, in Madoka's opinion, Mami's tea was one of the best parts of the day.
"Hey Madoka," Homura started, "I need to talk to you."
"O-okay," I responded to the unexpected request.
They walked down the hall to Homura's bedroom, she had always had a particular fondness for the raven haired dandere. All of a sudden, Homura started crying, like she had just remembered a very traumatic event from her past, maybe she had.
"Homu-?" I started, but I was interrupted by a sudden softness on my lips, a comforting, warm softness, Homura had her small lips pressed against Madoka's, she was still crying, but now she was blushing also. It was somehow a familiar softness to Madoka, even though she had never kissed before. Wait, she had never kissed before, that meant that Homura was her first kiss. That made the pinkette oddly happy.
"Homura…"
"I-I almost lost you today," she said while crying.
"Yeah but…you've lost me before, remember?"
"That doesn't mean it isn't hard!" Homura screamed," I love you Madoka, I hate seeing you die and I hate myself for letting it happen!"
She loves me? Has she confessed this love in different timelines as well?
"Homura…" I said as I nuzzled her head on my shoulder.
The Raven haired girl cried on the Pinkette's shoulder for a good five minutes. It was a comforting five minutes for the both of them.
"Ne…Homura-chan?"
"Yes Madoka?" she said as she struggled to keep her face dry.
"I love you too."
