Cordy was actually supportive of Zoe's relationship with Bob, though she also held out a little hope on Jay in a corner of her heart.
Maybe, just maybe…
Even then, Cordy found that part of her conflicting.
"You mean we should be doing it already?" Zoe asked.
"I actually thought that you two were hitting it off," Cordy replied. "I'm actually surprised that you're that conservative."
"Not really, it's just that things hadn't really gotten that far… but he caught me watching an adult video a while ago," Zoe confessed awkwardly.
"You were watching what?" Cordy laughed.
"Don't start. I was just checking it out since Quinn asked for help, but Bob somehow stumbled upon me browsing! To be honest, we almost did it right then… if Bob didn't suddenly have to leave for some thingamajig."
"And then? Was there no other opportunities?" Cordy asked. "I never knew you were that shy."
"I'm a girl too, woman," Zoe snapped. "I can't exactly just take the lead! Also, Bob may look like a playboy, but he's actually extremely conservative about that stuff… That's why I'm wondering if I should be a bit more proactive? It feels like we're lacking something if we don't do it."
"Since you're sure about Bob and really have feelings for him, it doesn't matter who initiates it… Though I do encourage you to do so," Cordy gave her support right then.
At this stage, it would be ridiculous if Zoe continued to save herself for Jay.
Zoe actually seemed a little chipper after Cordy offered her encouragement too. "So… Should I get prepared?"
"Sure." Cordy smiled.
"By the way, when are you coming back?" Zoe could not help asking then. "I mean, Rocktown is where Jessica grew up. Don't you think the air there is dirtier because of that?"
Cordy chuckled, earnestly appreciative of Zoe's earnestness just then.
Her life would certainly have been beautiful if not for her domestic troubles.
