Dinner at La Langue had been a revelation for Joey, but not as incredible as coming home had been.

He had a wonderful time with Aynsley and Madison, the three of them getting to know one another better, laughing, drinking, telling stories. There was that blowjob from Madison, and watching Aynsley get absolute pounded by that redheaded waiter. It had actually been Joey's idea to see if his girlfriends wanted to take a turn with any of the wait staff. They had both been surprised by the offer, but Joey had assured them it was genuine. After all, he got to fuck other women, why shouldn't they get the same consideration. Especially if he was there to watch. After a few bouts of blushing and giggling from all three of them, Aynsley had been the one to take him up on the offer. Then it was just a matter of seeing which of the staff wanted to fuck her, and boom, dinner and a show.

Maybe that's why Aynsley decided to call it a night after dinner, but based on the look she traded with Madison before peeling off from the others it didn't seem that way. Joey and Madison both told her she didn't have to, none of them had ever been in a throuple, but considering Joey's dad had three wives and a husband, he had never...

Wait, what? Why did his parents' polycule seem make his stomach lurch. He loved all five of his parents, though of course Sarah and Hank would always have a special place as his biological parents. They would be so proud to hear he was starting his own, they were quite sex positive after all. Still he couldn't get over a nagging sensation of something.

Joey blinked and pushed the thought out of his head. He couldn't let something so silly bother him. Not when he and Madison were enjoying being massaged by Donna, Eliza, and Bianca, all of whom were clad in matching salacious lace lingerie. That had been Joey's idea, of course, to have the three of them greet him and Madison wearing nothing but their new underwear and heels. Joey had even bought all three pairs, plus the matching shoes. It had even been his idea to get three different colors. It had been so hot to see them excitedly greet him and his First Girlfriend at the door as they curtseyed a greeting in non-existent skirts. Eliza had been the first to kiss them hello, rubbing up against both of them in her pink bodice and matching pink leather shoes. Then Donna, her own fuller figure filling out the deep red garment that so complimented the tinge of auburn in her lustrous hair, slipping each of them a bit of tongue with her greeting. Then of course Bianca, who showered them both with kisses all over their faces as she rubbed up against them, her massive tits practically spilling out of the black lace of her bodice.

Madison had been so happy to see them all, and even though she missed Indira and Aynsley, Joey was glad that tonight was just about the two of them. Sure, the others were around, but they were there mostly to facilitate the date. Eliza took their coats and shoes while Bianca mixed them drinks, and Donna took care of lighting the scented candles Joey had bought for Madison. Madison understood, the others would have their nights, but this evening they were there to pamper her and her boyfriend. She had gushed her thanks to Joey. Her gratitude was so effusive that they spent nearly an hour just making out on the couch, as Joey got to feel every inch of Madison's body against his.

It had been Madison's idea for the massage, and Joey had been a bit surprised by how comfortable Madison was to order around the other women. Not that she had done it rudely. Gone, it seemed, were the days of queen-bitch Madison. Instead of barking commands, Madison had been polite and cheerful, but firm and direct as well when she told the other women exactly what she wanted for herself and Joey. He had never had a massage before. Donna and Eliza had seemed particularly keen on the idea, especially considering how much of his body they would get to touch. He couldn't disappoint them by saying no.

And Joey had to admit it felt like nothing he'd ever experienced before. He groaned loudly as Donna's soft hands dug deep into his shoulder working out a knot of muscle he hadn't realized had been bothering him for weeks.

"Seems like someone is enjoying himself." Madison said from the other side of the bed, with a bit of a giggle.

"You were right." He said, happy to admit it if it meant more of this wonderful treatment.

"Aw, thanks babe, that's so sweet of you to say. But seriously, you deserve this." She said.

"You both do." Bianca said, the fawning admiration dripping from her voice as Donna and Eliza chimed in with their own agreements.

"Oh really?" Joey said, feeling his face flush at the attention. Not that he didn't enjoy it, but he still felt a bit uneasy at so much female attention. A bit guilty too, if he was being honest.

"Of course, Joey!" Madison said. "Honestly, ever since that day on the quad, when I was such a complete jerk to you, after you explained everything to me, my life has gotten so much better. I knew from that day that you were the best possible thing for me, but even then I didn't realize all the perks that came with being your girlfriend.

Another tittering wave of giggles went through the other girls as they drew back from the conversation, as if to give Joey and Madison a bit of privacy. It was shocking how unobtrusive three women in sexy underwear could be, but that was a testament to how well organized they had become under Madison's leadership.

"I really shouldn't have... Madison I don't think I talked to you well that day either." Joey said, as a lump seemed to form in his throat.

"What are you talking about? You didn't say anything wrong. I was way out of line. I told you to give up on life!" Madison said.

A wave of some strange sensation washed over Joey. At first he thought it was his guilt, but it was something else. Something in his stomach. A nausea unlike any he had felt before. It wasn't in his stomach. It was in his head. Like something was trying to... No it was too crazy to even think of.

Whether it was his own regrets for how things had played out, or something else, Joey felt an odd insistence. He felt a sudden and powerful need to tell Madison everything. Even though it was terrifying, he felt like he had to. Things were getting serious, after all. Joey told himself that if he wanted to have something real with Madison, it wasn't enough to just take her on a date and trade stories about college life. He had to open to her. He had to give her the see-

"Madison I have to tell you something." Joey said, cutting off his own train of thought before it spiraled into utter nonsense and he lost his nerve.

He needed to tell her.

"Of course boo, you can tell me anything." Madison said, and Joey felt a bit giddy at hearing her call him boo, it was so sweet and corny.

He told himself it was going to be okay. After all, she still thought he was the best thing that could happen to her. And he really had to tell her. But he wasn't ready to come clean to the others. Not yet. Something told him it would be better if only Madison were around for what he had to say.

"Can we have some privacy?" He said, looking up at a nervous looking Eliza.

"Come on dear." Donna said, taking the professor by the hand, as Bianca brushed her fingers along his back. "Both of you. These two love birds want to talk about thing alone. We'll be outside waiting for you, if you need anything just holler or send a text."

The three of them left quietly and quickly after that, and Joey rolled onto his side, gazing at the naked perfection of Madison next to him. God this was going to be hard.

"Okay so you know how we first got together? That was literally magic. I used magic to make you like me. I **** you to love me." Joey said.

Madison didn't laugh. That was good, but she did cock her head to the side in confusion.

"What is this about Joey? It wasn't any 'magic' you just explained things to me. You didn't **** me to do anything I didn't want." Madison said, reaching out to hold his hand and give it a reassuring caress.

"Um actually... I'm going to tell you the whole story, the true story, and you're going to believe it. I want you to understand all of my motivations, all of my actions, whether good or bad, you'll believe me when I tell you what was accidental, what was deliberate. I want you to see things from my perspective, and I want you to understand everything." He said.

Madison's pupils widened, then a few seconds later contracted. Joey sighed and told her everything.

At least everything he remembered.

Madison listened. She nodded her head at times, sometimes she asked clarifying questions, but mostly she just lay there, on the smooth cotton sheets that Eliza had bought for this house. This house that she had given Joey. This gorgeous bedroom, with its tastefully painted walls illuminated by the candlelight. This house that Bianca had moved all of Joey's old things into earlier that day. It was a reminder of the power he held. A power that he described in every intimate detail to Madison. Everything he knew, which still wasn't much. It hurt to say everything, the shame he felt was almost as urgent as the pressure he felt behind his eyes. But Madison didn't seem to be upset. Her face was level, kind, painfully understanding, as she absorbed every bit of information Joey was letting loose in this torrent.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but it felt like hours when he finally said, "And then I used it again, one more time, but that was because I really needed you to believe me, and I couldn't think of an easier way. So that's it. I hope you don't think I'm a monster."

Madison looked at him, her blue eyes sparkling, yet betraying nothing of what was going inside her head.

"Did you ask for this?" Madison said, her voice still as calm and level as it had been during Joey's whole lore dump.

"No! I honestly don't even know how it happened." Joey said, the fear now openly showed on his face, and Madison smiled softly as she placed a hand on his cheek.

"Well I know you have this power. I believe you, but honestly? I think it's amazing." Madison said, and now he saw that what he had taken as placid neutrality was actually quiet admiration.

That made no sense.

"But I made you fall in love with me." Joey said.

"Joey, did you ever say I have to love you? You didn't even know you had powers. And yes, you explained in a lot of depth how you made Eliza love her job, but that was only after you accidentally bound her to you. Plus you genuinely made her happy. You gave her purpose. You gave me a group of friends that are even closer than my sorority. Joey, people do all kinds of things to get other people to believe them. You wouldn't believe the kind of shit some guys pulled on me. Whether you used magic or not, I do agree that you're the best thing that could happen to me. I was such a total bitch before I met you. You showed me kindness. You gave me a place by the side of maybe the most powerful man in the universe. You were completely open with me. Just because you used magic to convince me, it doesn't mean what you were saying is wrong. You really are the best guy on the planet for me, objectively. I don't care how you did it, but I believe in you Joey. Me. Whether this version of me was created by your power or not, I don't care. This is me. This is who I am. Maybe you used a shortcut, but you got through to me. You made me see how wonderful life could be with you. I honestly didn't think I could be more in love with you, but your honesty. Your power. Shit Joey, I'm honestly wet just thinking about all the possibilities." Madison said, crawling across the expanse of sheets, her face reaching closer and closer to Joeys, until they were only a breath away.

"Possibilities?" Joey said, still reeling from the shock of Madison's eager response.

"Duh! I mean come on, your power is like totally awesome. You made that amazing date happen, and you got the restaurant to pay all those employees super well, plus the three figure tip we left for Aynsley's little flirtation, and come on the look in that guy's eyes as he was pounding her pussy? He told us he was into it. Come on, every time you've used your powers you've made people happier. Why would you want to stop?" Madison said, chuckling, it was kind of cute, but Joey backed away.

Madison pouted.

"What?" She said leaning on her hands and purposefully giving Joey a spectacular view of her bare breasts, playful and carefree after learning she was brain washed. Joey was still so confused, he hadn't expected to be the one to get scared by this admission. But still, there was more left. More he had to do. That insistence wouldn't let up.

"This is serious Madison. Eliza can't be responsible for herself anymore because of what I did to her!" Joey said.

"OMG Joey! Come on! You're being dramatic. Eliza gave herself over to you. It was her choice. I know, I know, magic, but while you're soooo obsessed with giving us girls our agency back, you're not considering we had any to begin with. Seriously, babe. Don't you think we have a choice in how we interpret what you say?"

"I don't know!"

"Exactly! You don't know!" Madison said, beaming at Joey swaying closer, the smell of peach and ginger wafting from her. Joey felt something pulling him. Or pushing him? Some **** that was trying to... escape him. Was she doing this? The thoughts were soon forgotten as she continued speaking in her sweet sing-song voice. "You don't know how your powers work. You have barely started testing them. You don't have a choice in having this power, and you already have used it accidentally or used it after being backed into a corner. If you want to use this responsibly, if you're serious about that, then you have to admit you have to test it, right?"

"I have to test it..." Joey said, barely listening to Madison. There was a buzzing. Not in his ears. In his mind. Not an insectile buzz. It was more profound. Deeper. It was a thrumming sensation. Like ripples on a lake as some great creature stirred beneath its surface.

"And you don't have to test on randos, you know? I for one would be happy to be your guinea pig, any of the girls would be." Madison said, her own voice beginning to get distant, her eyes losing focus.

Joey felt far away, his body was here, next to Madison, but his mind was elsewhere. Yet even in that hazy feeling he could see the change in Madison's demeanor. A change that reflected his own. Something was affecting him, and whatever it was seemed to be influencing her too. There was a part of his mind that knew this, part of him that was aware, even if he didn't know of what.

Then a new thought flashed into his mind. It was coming. Any moment now.

"You want to help me. This power. You want it." Joey said, his voice dreamy as the words seemed to come unbidden to his lips.

"I do." Madison said, her eyes wide as her gaze seemed to look past Joey.

"But I'm the only one with a power."

"Are you sure? If it happened to you, why not someone else?" Madison said.

Then Joey snapped back to attention. He blinked, and forgot anything had ever been wrong. He was just sitting on his bed across from his insanely hot girlfriend. He looked at Madison, but she flinched.

Joey was confused, but it didn't seem to have to do with him. All of a sudden Madison was clutching her head, her eyes shut tight, and a look of pain flashed across her face. Her mouth opened and for a moment Joey was ready to call in Donna or Eliza or even Bianca. Madison looked like she was in agony.

But then the moment passed.

Madison was breathing hard now, beads of sweat were on her face.

She looked up at Joey. Their eyes met.

Joey felt something. Something new. There was something new behind those grey-blue eyes of Madison's. He couldn't describe it. He just knew. There was something there. Something that was pulling towards him.

"Holy shit." Was what he said.

"I know." Madison said. She was panting from the strain, but then, all of a sudden, she was grinning. Smiling. Laughing. "Holy shit, I can see it. I can feel it. That thing that's inside of you. That's your power. I can feel it. It's incredible. Luminous. Beautiful. I can't believe you were afraid of it."

"I still am. Madison, something has happened to you-" Joey said, trying to pick his words carefully, worried about what had just happened to his girlfriend. She, it seemed, had no such fears.

"You felt that too?! Holy shit I thought my head was going to explode. But wait, what the fuck? You're afraid of your powers? Why?"

"Madison, I don't know what I did, but I think my powers are affecting you. I think I... I don't know I think you're infected too now. You were in pain Madison. We need to get you checked out."

"Checked out?! Joey who could check us out? Are you going to a doctor to see what happened? This is a blessing!"

"No it's not! It's a huge responsibility. I've been too reckless, I'm sorry. I need to stop this."

Madison, for the first time since Joey 'explained' himself to her, looked upset with him. Her lips pursed as she studied him, disapproval all too clear. But then something changed. Her face softened.

"Are you sure? Don't you feel a tingle of pleasure every time you think about your power? Didn't you feel a surge of euphoria that dwarfed that tingle every time you used them?" Madison said, her smirk growing with each word.

What the fuck?

What was she talking about? His powers were a curse. They were a responsibility. They were...

Don't you feel a tingle of pleasure every time you think about your power?

Well he was thinking about them now, and Joey couldn't deny, he was feeling something too. There was something inside of him. His body seemed to bubble with an effervescent excitement. The more he thought about them, the harder it was to think about anything else.

Fuck, he felt so good.

Madison was right.

Joey tried to remember how it felt to think about them before. It was hard to focus. But his mind told him that surely it must have felt this good then too. Madison may be new to learning about them, but she had been able to spot something he couldn't. He had been so distracted by his feelings of guilt, he must have suppressed these feelings. Madison had seen through him.

Didn't you feel a surge of euphoria that dwarfed that tingle every time you used them?

Shit.

He wasn't sure anymore. He was full of Doubt.

New memories formed in Joey's mind, as reality shifted. His face bloomed crimson as he blushed at the memories.

Joey hadn't had a lot of experience with sex. He had only lost his virginity the night before. But even that didn't come close with the full-bodied pleasure that came each time he used his powers. He had tried to deny that. He could see it now, he had tried to forget that rush. How could he resist the pull if he didn't?

"Madison. I can't deny it feels good, but there are other things to think about." Joey said. "The moral implications-"

Madison laughed. Not a cruel laugh, or a manic one. It was kind. A gentle bark of laughter that seemed to call him a sweet idiot. Madison didn't say that though. She just brushed his cheek with her hand, and Joey could once more feel that pull. Feel that new familiar something that gleamed behind her eyes.

What was-

"Oh Joey, babe, that's why you have me, and the others. I told you I would love to see them in action. I don't mind being your guinea pig any more than I assume you would feel bad if I used my powers on you." She said chuckling.

Joey was confused.

"What powers?" Joey said.

"I don't know exactly what they do. But you didn't notice anything change? I could have sworn I just used them. What did it feel like when you first used your power?" Madison said her head tilting as she searched his face for clues.

"I didn't know I had powers. I couldn't feel them."

"Really? I can feel yours. I can feel mine. I can see that it worked on you, just thinking about those seems to be getting a reaction out of your big friend over there." Madison said, with a playful tease as her other hand reached down to his penis.

It shrank, and Joey cursed himself. All talk of magic and power faded as he felt his dick go limp at his insanely hot girlfriend's touch. For a moment he was just another college kid who felt weird being naked around a girl he liked.

"Sorry." He said, his voice quavering for a moment. "I uh... I was surprised. Look Madison, you're right it feels good when I use my uh... my ability, but I didn't feel any different. When I 'explain' things to people they believe me. I didn't feel anything in my mind change."

"Well I didn't say I had the same powers as you silly." Madison said, giving him a loving look as if he were just the cutest little goofball. It was hot, but also a bit disconcerting. "That seems like it would be redundant. I think mine work a bit differently. I was trying to affect what you thought, but I think all I did was change how you thought. Or at least the underlying neurochemical function of your brain."

"I still feel the same though. There is something in you. I do feel it. But powers? So suddenly? We don't have proof. You were right, we should take a second and study this, test my abilities. Test what's happening to you. But I don't want to get your hopes up, Madison. Just because you want something doesn't mean you necessarily have it. I mean I didn't want to get nervous dick shrinkage, but hey here I am, subject to the whims of my body." Joey said, laughing a bit, and hoping that his attempt at humor could lighten the mood.

Madison just returned to smirking, and looked him up and down.

"Are you sure? I thought your dick could get hard whenever you wanted, however long you wanted it to."

Another wave of confusion hit Joey. He didn't think that's how dicks worked.

Well maybe not other people's dicks, at least, but now that he thought about it. He had never really tried to think about getting hard.

Joey's dick sprang to life, his eyes glazed as new memories flooded into his brain.

Madison was grinning from ear to ear.
