MAKING IT WORK.

Story by Oswald Flow and Bridget Rogers. Note: Even More Headcanons. Hello, Bridget talking here. Know that it'll be confusing that there's a sudden change in writers, but let's just say that I'm a colleague of Oswald, he left me in charge of the fic while he takes a break. I had been helping with this since the beginning, so hopefully... you will enjoy this chapter, mostly written by me. Oswald is still involved, like I said we've been writing this since the beginning, so basically the idea won't be lost and you guys will give me a chance while being fully in charge of this fic. Also, after you've read this, I will start editing the previous chapters. Oswald had left me in charge of that aswell, so there will be minor changes in chapter 1 and 2 and maybe a few more in chapter 3. Oswald felt a bit down due to the mixed reception of Chapter 3, he blamed himself and wanted me to rewrite the whole thing. I... don't agree, I would change some things but not entirely but I'll see what I can do. Please enjoy this chapter, there's a huge ton of character developement through dialogue, I hope it's not boring. Thank you, and maybe review please? This was like 80% written by me and I'd like a little feedback... Sorry if it sounds I'm begging but I'm mostly the editor.

Chapter 03: Developing.

They went downstairs and made themselves some coffee. Maggie grabbed a knife and cut a nice big slice of the banana pie and placed it on a plate, she grabbed a fork and stuck it on the slice. Luan grabbed some mugs and poured the coffee in them. When they were done, they walked together back to the living room where they settled on the couch.

Luan grabbed Maggie's hand, interwinding their fingers while gently lifting their hands and gently placed a small kiss on the back of Maggie's hand, making her smile and blush slightly.

They were silent for a while, resting each others heads against one another.

Soon enough, they parted ways and tried to speak at the same time before they stopped and laughed softly.

"Sorry, is there anything you want to say?" Luan asked with a sweet smile on her face.

"No... it's just, you're been to nice, I feel like I don't deserve all this... affection, y'know?" Maggie said as she scratched some pie from the plate with the fork.

Luan chuckled softly and lifted that hand again which she hold tightly and placed a few more kisses against the back of it. "It's been a while since we've spend the whole night together... if you don't count last week of course. It's just, I want to make up for you, for all those nights we spend apart from each other. I made you cry last night... I don't like making people cry... I just realized that." Luan said with a bit of a frown mixed with a very small smile.

"To be honest, it should be me who should be making up for you... I kinda mess our relationship up. Don't feel guilty, you were right last night." Maggie smiled.

Luan thought for a bit. "Oh yeah... I think you're right, you should make up for me so feed me. AHH!". Luan laughed before opening up her mouth.

"You're awful!" Maggie laughed softly, and gently grabbed a piece of pie and placed it on Luan's mouth, she closed it really fast and munched on the bite murring at the taste.

"Hmm... it's really good! More! AHH!"

Laughing, Maggie grabbed a few more bites and continued feeding Luan until she let her grab a few bites herself.

When they finished eating, Maggie placed the plate on the coffee table, they grabbed their mugs and drinked some coffee while still chilling at the couch.

"What do you want to do next?" Maggie asked. "We could go out if you want?"

"Hmm... to be honest, I feel like I don't want to see anyone else right now. Unless you want to go out, watch a movie or something? Or go out at night, choose a nice restaurant and have some dinner?"

"Perhaps the dinner... I dunno."

"When is your mom coming back?"

"She's coming back on Monday, in the morning I guess."

"Oh ok. She knows I'm here right?"

"Yeah." Maggie said.

There was a tone in Maggie's voice that made Luan think there was something she was omitting.

"You haven't told her, haven't you?" Luan said, her expression changing to a face of disappointment.

Looking back at Luan and her eyes, almost glaring at her, Maggie felt her lip trembling again. "I'm going to tell her! Don't worry, please don't freak out!" Maggie went back to that scared looking girl from last night, making Luan snapping from her upset expression and then brought her into a small hug.

"Hey, calm down, ok? Calm down. Don't be scared ok? I'm not going to freak out." Maggie was breathing heavily in Luan's arms.

"Don't be mad at me please..." Maggie whispered.

"Not mad, just... a bit disappointed ok?" Luan said, caressing Maggie's cheeks.

"I'm sorry..." Maggie said, locking her eyes with Luan's, so that she could understand that she really meant it.

"Don't worry, ok? Why haven't you told her, tho? My parents already know about you." Luan said.

"They do?" Maggie asked, surprised.

"Oh yeah, I guess we didn't talked about that, right?" Luan sighed. "Well, it all happened between that first break we took. When we came back together afterwards I forgot to tell you because... you know, we took a second break." Luan scratched her head.

"I'm sorry." Maggie said as she looked down at her feet.

"It's ok, I'm not mad." Luan chuckled softly.

"How did it went?"

"Well... I was going to tell them sooner, but then Luna came out and told them about Sam... and well, I didn't want to go out and say; Oh hey guys, I'm gay too! It wouldn't be the same, it would had been like me wanting some attention."

"That's one awful reason not to tell them." Maggie glared.

"It's not the real reason, I didn't told them to be honest..." Luan sighed and rubbed her eyes with the hand that wasn't holding Maggie's hand.

"Then what was it?"

"Well, I wanted to wait at least, because I didn't want them to be... skeptical about me." Luan rubbed her face again.

"Just spit it out." Maggie knew that Luan had another silly reason not to tell them.

"When I told them about it, they were cool, just like with Luna. But then... like I said, they did went skeptical about it and separated us Luna and me into different rooms, they moved Leni to my room and Luna to Leni's." Luan said, with that look that said 'if you catch my drift.'

Maggie had a very confused look in her face, she adjusted her glasses before she realized what she was trying to say. "Nooooo... they didn't." She whispered.

"Oh yeah, they did. Boy was that was an awkward month." Luan sighed.

Maggie tried her best to deal with this information, well... would she blame the parents to get them apart?

Was it too suspicious that the two bisexual girls happened to be sharing the same room for more than 10 years?

"Wow... just wow." Maggie said. "But did you really...?" Maggie didn't even finished that sentence, when Luan turned to glare at her with the most deadly eyes she had ever seen in her life. Maggie was turned on and at the same time frightened by that look. "Forget it..."

"Thought so. The answer is no, just to be clear." Luan switched back to happy Luan, this didn't helped Maggie to feel any less frightened however, Luan could snap at anytime.

"So, are you going to tell her when she comes back or are you going to wait?" Luan asked and Maggie bit her lip.

"Well... I think that after school, if I catch her."

"Ok then." Luan said with a smile.

"What... did you told your parents exactly?"

"Hmm..." Luan thought for a bit. "Well, I kinda started from the beginning. How I realized I wasn't exactly like Luna... because I wanted them to know exactly our cases are not related."

"What?" Maggie raised an eyebrow.

"I told them... when I was little, about... 8 years old... I was on recess, practicing my jokes and such. Since very little I wanted to make people laugh. I dunno, I saw this guy on tv that just... was funny." Luan smiled. "It was a movie, a man working at a hospital, wearing a red nose. It was a beautiful movie."

"Oh, I know that one."

"Well, anyway, I was out there at the school yard, when someone approached, me this cute girl, she laughed at my joke." Luan smiled, staring at Maggie, there was a spark in Luan's eyes. "She laughed and... everything was just right."

"Your first crush?"

"Well, not exactly, but might had been. The only thing I knew, was that... her laugh, was just right and beautiful and I wanted more... I started to tell her joke after joke and she kept laughing."

Looking at Luan's expression, it was clear that it was a very important moment in her life.

"Just to be clear, it wasn't the same with boys tho, I mean, I could say there was some satisfaction, but not entirely. When a girl laughed at my jokes, it was just addictive..." Luan laughed.

"Wait... I thought you were bi? You're gay?" Maggie asked in surprise.

"Well duh! I'm with you, isn't that obvious?"

"No no... your sister, Leni I think, you left me alone one day and she told me a story that there was this guy, that you all had a crush on. A teacher or something..."

"Ohhh, you mean Huey? Yeeeeah... I faked it." Luan said. "When all of your sisters are drooling at this guy, and they all stare at you when you don't feel the same way, they start to ask questions. So everytime there's some random guy they find cute and look at me asking what do I think I lie."

"Why?" Maggie asked with a raised eyebrow. "I just don't understand why would you lie to your own sisters like that."

"Just put yourself in my shoes, I wanted to keep it a secret, I wasn't ready to come out." Luan explained.

"Ok... so, what about Benny?" Maggie asked, crossing her arms.

"Hon, I faked about Huey, do you really want to think I would be honest about someone that's half hot as Huey?" Luan raised an eyebrow, making Maggie laugh.

"Wow... So... why did you even date him?" Maggie asked.

"Because he was gay too, dummy!" Luan laughed.

"No way!"

"Oh... hon, you have no idea. We had sort of a agreement, he was like my girl friend to be honest."

"Ha ha ha ha! You didn't..." Maggie went in protect mode before she even tried to finish her sentence.

"Nooooooooooo, don't you even start with that." Luan shut her eyes.

"Bad experience...?" Maggie asked.

"Well... when I was 9, there was this time that Lori was being a bitch and wouldn't let anyone in the bathroom when she was trying to apply her make up for one of her dates with Boo Boo Bear. So... little me had to go all the way down to try and get into mom and dad's private bathroom in their bedroom. And... little me, watched something that would mark me for life..." Luan said, staring at the wall as if she was dead inside.

"No way!" Maggie covered her mouth.

"When little me saw their bodies so close together, the only that came out of my little voice was; Daddy! What're you doing to mommy?!" Luan then laughed and Maggie just went pale... or more pale than usual.

"Gross! Shut up!" Maggie covered her face, it was burning with pink.

"Dad killed my possible attraction to the male body." Luan laughed again and Maggie just punched her on the shoulder.

"Stop it! No more jokes about your dad... and his... sausage."

"Then, I went into a little theraphy, I handled it well because Lori and Leni and Luna shared their experience, they also saw them too. Then afterwards, Lynn joined the club. They're rabbits, Maggie! Rabbits!" Luan screamed and Maggie punched her again making her laugh.

"Shut it!" Maggie crossed her arms, upset and her face was still burning red and her reaction made Luan to huggle her from the side and kissed her cheek.

"Ok, I'm sowwie, I'll behave now."

They spend a few more minutes in silence, the dad dick killed the mood, but Maggie soon broke the silence and simply asked.

"If you're... gay. Then what about Luna?"

"Oh she? She's bi, trust me, I know." Luan gave a look that said; Don't ask. "Now that I shared, what about you? Your turn."

"Hmm... well..."

"Are you bi or gay?"

"I don't know." Maggie said, looking to the side, her blush fading away slowly.

"How can't you know? You like girls and boys or just girls?"

"I don't know... when I was little, I didn't even cared about how I felt about other people, when my dad left us... I just didn't cared anymore. I went into emo Maggie and I locked my sexuality away." Maggie took her glasses off and rubbed her eyes, trying her best not to remember her dad. Luan hugged her, she knew how she was her dad was mentioned.

Little tears ran down her eyes, biting her lip she hold up and stopped to calm herself down, she didn't want to cry anymore.

"You ok now? Or you want to take a minute?" Luan asked as she rubbed her back.

"No, I'm fine." Maggie calmed down and cleaned her face.

"So, you don't like people in general?"

Maggie didn't know how to respond to that. "I've never had a crush on anyone, until you." Maggie said and smiled at Luan who smiled back.

"I'm honored." Luan chuckled softly, cheeks pink.

Bringing those hands up back again, Luan gave Maggie's hand a few kisses and leaned to kiss her a bit.

Maggie however, broke the kiss after a bit and when Luan tried to bring their lips back together she stopped her with her free hand. "Let's... not get into that mood right now..."

"Hehe... you make it sound like I'm always looking for that certain mood." Luan smirked. "It's ok tho. Did I ever told you... when we were introduced by Lynn? How I felt about you?"

"No..."

"Well, I saw this girl, with a frown, that just wouldn't see the bright side of the world. This girl, was screaming for help, I could tell." Luan began to kiss the hand of Maggie again. "So I heard her screams, and I decided to break the ice, tell a joke. She didn't laughed. So I tried again. She tried to get away from me but then... she saw me, and recognized me."

Maggie smiled and blushed, looking to her side while Luan kissed her arm now.

"Started to do the pantomime that she watched before. I was able to tell her a joke, without saying a word. Because she smiled. And that smile, stole my heart." Luan said and leaned to kiss her cheek.

Turning back, Maggie then brought their lips together in a intense kiss full of passion and love.

They lost each other in the kiss, not caring about anything else in the world. It went for minutes, and minutes, until finally, they broke the kiss down together and then rested their foreheads against one another.

Luan then added as she strocked her cheeks. "I feel so lucky, that I get to witness that beautiful smile everytime I see you. It's like... something special that nobody else in the world gets to see."

"Stop..." Maggie laughed, blushing madly.

"Never, I will never stop showing affection to you, and saying nice things to you, so I can get that smile and better yet, that laugh that spices everything up." Luan pecked the tip of Maggie's nose.

"Your laugh that's contagious!" Maggie exclaimed and kissed her a few times.

"Ha ha ha ha! You mean it?" Luan said returning those kisses quite eagerly.

"The only reason I laugh, it's because you do it first, whenever I see a smirk on the edge of your face, I feel like you're about to tell the lamest joke in the world, but that's your charm..." Maggie smiled and Luan smiled widely.

Leaning towards her, and pecking her on the lips. Luan then whispered. "Thank you. You've never told me something from the heart before."

"It's the truth. And... I will change, for you, you deserve compliments aswell." Maggie said and brought their hands back up and this time, it was her who planted a kiss on the back of Luan's hand.

Smiling towards each other, their conversation continued, they shared a lot of things, from happy thoughts from a little too depressing, mostly coming from Maggie, but Luan was used to that, but she didn't mind.

In the afternoon, they got ready, they went to the movies and watch a movie. A horror movie that was shocking everyone up called: The Sketch Man. Based on true events from a serial killer case on a place called Averyville.

It was... ok. Luan felt a bit scared but Maggie wasn't impressed. They soon moved to a nice restaurant at night, they ate happily and shared even more thoughts.

When they got back to Maggie's house, they spend the whole evening watching random things on tv, they just cuddled up with each other. Eat more pie. Go back up, making out, and falling asleep.

Dreaming, and knowing that when they wake up, they will still be there, making this work.
