LOVE AND PRIDE Chapter one
Lancaster University, England. October 1986
Helena Peabody studied her slim body in the mirror in the bathroom and glanced at her watch. It was 8:40 and she had a 9am lecture — she really needed to make a start.
As she left the bathroom she glanced to the right to see if her housemate was out of bed yet. Who was she kidding — that one never slept more than five hours a night and by the time Helena made an appearance she would be long gone. Helena would probably pass her at some point in the day on the way to the library or on the way to the sports hall.
The drive was a brief one – Helena enjoyed being back in England after five years in a private school in Boston. Peggy, her mother had taken over a publishing house and had insisted that instead of leaving Helena in England at boarding school that she should attend an all girls day school in Boston.
Boston was great and Helena had really changed during her time there but she did long for England and when University was discussed Helena had wanted to return to England to study. She didn’t want somewhere as snotty as Oxford or Cambridge — she had been bullied too much about being a rich snob – -which given the wealth of the parents of those who had bullied her was the pot and kettle black syndrome.
So she was living in Lancaster and loving it. Her mother and new step father had bought her a house in the ancient city so she was not forced to sleep in one of those tiny campus beds. But she did – when she was lucky enough to score with some tasty female students who was easy meat for her sophistication and mid-Atlantic accent.
Helena parked on campus and hurried through the buildings to reach the Faraday lecture theatre for her 9am lecture on Law.
She loved law and hoped that after her degree she could go on and become a barrister. She was doing Law, History and English that year — and if she got a high enough pass mark in Law she would specialise in her second and third years.

My friend, of course you should continue this and any other story you write. This is going to be even better than I thought it was when we talked about it. You are an amazingly talented and imaginative author and I will never get enough of your stories. I just have one question though—how ever did you come up with the premise of them going to college in England and at that paticular one too? LOL!!
oh wow. Bette & Helena step sisters? A whole new story line. I think i already like it. Pls do continue Ally
WOW ALLY! IM SAD TO SEE LONG WINDING ROAD IS ABOUT TO END.BUTT IM VERY HAPPY THAT YOU HAVE A NEW STORY WITH TIBETTE…. I DONT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO SAY BUTT THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK THAT YOU HAVE DONE/AND CONTINUE TOO. THANK YOU,ALLY…..
YAY! Another Tibette story.. *doing little happy dance*. I love it already, I like the geeky version of Bette.. lol.. can’t wait for more. :)
Love this already. so Helena andbette are s/sister. Helena is after Tina. lets hope Tina will say NO until she meet Ms. Porter. thanks
I really like the Long and Winding Road and I will miss it. This is very interesting and I would love to see how it migrates through their lives.
oh hell Helena’s gonna bring Tina into Bette’s arms…will there be a battle? I like Hel and Bette as sisters but of course I hate Hel and Tina as lovers…only TiBette!!!!Ally …do continue, with you writing it’s bound to be excellent!!!!PPS
Ahh this is good start and love B&Ts beginning. When I read Bette and Helena are step sister I just laugh, this is good twist and like relationship of Bette and Helena. Now Helena mention Tina name and hope Tina will say no to her and will wait for Bette. This is interesting and can’t wait to see more. OK post soon please, thanks! Drama coming !!!!!!!!!!!
First I was intrigued. Then i read that Bette and Helena were step sisters and i Was excited. Next, Bette is shy and I was bewildered. All of this to say that you have the makings of agreat story. I don’t think you can keep Bette shy for long; sonner or later the true Bette Porter will make her appearence and then ladies watch out. And did i read right, Helena has the hots for Tina??? But this is a Bette and Tina beginning, right? So i guess that means drama down the road. I’m all for this story as long as it doesn’t keep you from updating my favorite fan fic “The L Wing”.
I think the story so far is great. Definately I’m anticipating some conflict over Tina but do I sense that Bette may have a crush on Helena. Being a Belena fan. I’m excited to see where this goes, either way.
oh me oh my I think we need a continuation…but only if, you know, you want to and stuff…
Step-sister theirs a twist. OMG, there going to end up fighting over the same woman. Already lovin this, cos I know once Bette sees Tina the decision of whether or not she’s straight or gay will be answered.

Ahaha, Ally, I’m with Lament. At this point, I think I’ll just love any B/T story that you’d write…LOL! But I love this already. I just hope that you get B&T together and happy, but I trust you… A geeky Bette is cute but I really hope that she’ll let Helena help her explore the full potential of one Bette Porter! And I sure hope that it will be because of one Tina Kennard! Hopefully you’re not heading toward a dispute for Tina… Helena seems to be a player, and I guess she’s gonna become an ally in this. Soooo, Lancaster huh? ;) By the way, i’m with honda, don’t think that this new great fic will take us away from the L Wing! You better not even start to consider wrapping it up… I love it so much! Last but not least, Ally, I’m totally with Alice… Snakebite rules!!!! I got addicted to that poison when I was studying (correction, supposed to study) in England! That stuff is so good, but so dangerous… LOL!!! And I wouldn’t need 6 to be totally pissed, but I guess you’d have to have English blood running in your veins to be able to handle that many!!! ;) Okay, anyway, thanks for this new story (totally excited that it takes place in England BTW), it’s great so PPS! K.
OMG Ally I’m in love with this already. I like Helena and Bette as step-sisters and how they seem to be opposites. At first when Helena was getting ready for a lecture I thought she was a professor. Helena as a student works well too. I’ll be sad to see “Long and Wind Road” end, but I’m happy to see this one. Please continue!
oh crikie this sounds like its gonna turn out to be a family feud, unless Helena is a stand up kinda girlie.
I already like it because you wrote it. Okay gotta read it now.
Stepsisters…hmmmm….I like it. Can’t picture Melvin and Peggy married, but hey anything is possible ? So, Helena is hot for Tina and I’m going to assume once Bette lays eyes on Tina she will realize that she is gay and will go after her girl ? I hope…I’m a tibetter so I’m not wanting to see any Belena stuff in this story. Hey, maybe Helena will not be interested in Tina and will hook her step sister up with some style and confidence,and WHAM….B & T together forever. LOL! That seems a little too easy….now you know why I read fanfic and don’t write it. LOL! I can’t wait to read the next chap. I love your writing, Ally. PPS
I love the premise of your new story Ally….so Bette is shy and introverted huh? I am looking forward to the sexy blond bringing her out of her shell….please continue…..I agree, do not poison your mind by watching season 3, no good will come of it…
You’re right, this is totally different. I like it already. So, Tina will be the one to bring Bette out of her shell! Great start, Ally. Please continue.
A geeky /bette? I love it! I could see this about her, she had to develop her mojo over the course of time! lol! Post soon!
Bette and Helena, related… I love it! Melvin and Peggy bumping and grinding… Sh*t, that’s just funny as hell! Bette, shy and ontroverted… How adorable is she?! This is going to be quite interesting! You simply must continue… PLEASE! You’re off to a great start so far! I am hooked already! I am going to be be waiting anxiously for the next chapter. YES! Another B&T beginning! =) My day has started quite nicely. THANKS!
Good old Lancaster U.! I wonder who else we know could have gone there? And who knew Shane was college material? This is different and I love the premise. I just hope that Helena will grow enough to understand that a woman’s beauty is not to be found in a make-up kit, or even in good bone structure. Oh yeah, silver pants is something I’d like to see!
College beginnings are alway fun! Geeky shy Bette is so adorable oh and B&H as stepsisters, priceless :) I’m sure you had a few dramatic tricks up your sleeve..but if possible..let Tina not be a detriment to their sisterly bond, that would be soo sad. Thanks for another wonderful story.
This is charmong and has potential. Potential for fireworks for one thing. H & B after the same girl?
I am w/on Lam on both comments. Love it just because u wrote it, and it is a Bette and Tina fic. I am liking that Bette and Helena are step, and that they are getting along. But unforuntely for Helena she is going to lose as soon as Tina sees Bette, and Bette get that self confidence she was talking about we are going to be feeling sorry for her becease Bette is going to come out of that shell and be the baddest chick every!!!!
jb621, I highly doubt you’ll see any BeLena in this because step-sisters hooking up is just about as bad as 2 blood relatives hooking up. *barfs*
Ally, after all this time, need you ask? Of course we want you tbc…never, never ask that question…It’s amazing that you have this ability to share so much with us. You must be possessed with writing, and for that I’m grateful. Now this is a B/T beginning, I kind of had a hint that Bette maybe had a thing for helena there just at the end??? Pls, no more triangles…your the best at Tibette..really you are, oh and don’t think you can distract us with this great new story and end the L Wing…never gonna happen!!! Hey another Term!!….tks Ally
I can see Tina becoming a thorn between Bette and Helena already. PPS
I like this fresh, new start! …Take me to England, I need to get away! …Thanks!
LMAO this is REALLY diffirent like you said it would be, but of course you should continue – I just hope that along the way (the sooner the better) this will be less about Helena….maybe you’ve gueesed I’m not crazy about her :o)) I have a feeling a hot sexy blond will bring a shy and geeky Bette out of her shell….I can’t wait LOL. BTW how old are they??
Wohhhooooo Lanacster, i live here althoug i wouldnt of known of what was around in 86 as i was only 1 but yey anyway its fun to here someone talking about your home town , love the story already sad to see L&W road go but happier to see this one cant wait for your next post :)
AllyE, I love this already, love the Helena thinks of Bette and that she will have to fix her up with someone. Will she really let go of Tina, when Bette falls for her. Let’s hope she is a standup girl and let them have a go with each other. Because with you writing this, it will probably be one hell of a love affair. Mind blowing reactions from them both. Great, please continue with it.
step sisters mean that they are not related, so i predict a lot of possible drama here, Tina torn between bette and helena, maybe even bette and helena…anything can go…i hope B&T will win in the end
wow ally a new storie…yayyyyyy you soo made my weekend :) i already am madly addicted to your both stories :) love the plot
A very interesting new beginning story. Waiting you to be contiuned.
i already in! count me to read every chapter after this pilot! Helena and Bette step sister! and Bette in her shell i can’t imagine at the time she will choice to get out! and Tina in the middle! i really really will mis the long and wind road but this will be as good as the other!
hey, it’s great & love the change of the b&t beginning, pls post soon.
Right, this one IS great, you definitely have to continue it, great setting, lots of potential. I really hate it when a story stops I will be extremely sad when The Long and Windng Road will end, but on the other hand you make me very happy with this one.
