LOVE AND PRIDE — Chapter 8
Bette woke up and focused on her watch – it was 11am. She stared at it for a few seconds – she never slept that late. But as she laid back in bed she reflected that Saturday had not been a typical day.
The race had been brilliant – she had never had a minutes doubt that she would not win. If she hadn’t been so sick the winning margin would have be very impressive.
But the revelation about her sexuality has been the most significant part of the day. She thought about it and knew it was the right call — she was turned on by women and not men and that made her gay.
Her mind settled briefly on Tina Kennard – there was something special about her. She was so nice and had been a real friend last night when she had needed someone to talk to.
Bette got out of bed and stretched her lithe body – she was feeling tired but that was nothing that a lot of food, a doze later and maybe a swim wouldn’t put right.
Helena was in the sitting room — she was wearing white silk PJ’ – she was reading a tabloid and drinking coffee.
“Hey there “ Bette greeted her
“Hey sis “ Helena smiled at her through her hangover.
Bette sat down and picked up a newspaper. Several minutes passed before either of them spoke.
“How was your night ? “ Helena asked
“Good – it was good – and yours ?”
Bette glanced over the newspaper at Helena. She still didn’t know if she should say anything about meeting Helena’s disastrous date. Helena didn’t look up
“I scared her off “
“How ? Why ? “
“I thought that she was playing hard to get -when in fact she was hard to
get. I totally freaked her out “
“How did the evening end ? “
“She floored me and walked out in tears “
“FLOORED YOU ?”

great update mate – I like a timid Bette, but I like a Bette in Levis more! x
So Helena does not know that Bette has already met Tina and that both are interested in the other. Can’t wait to see Helena’s reaction to B&T.
Glad that Helena knows she did wrong with Tina. Loved how Bette called Alice a big mouth and that Helena didnt question Bette about her knowledge of what went down with Tina. thanks
Great post, but I think Bette should have told Helena about meeting Tina last night.
Good chapter. Like the way Helena is protect Bette and the relationship they have is wonderful and hope they will always like that. Can’t wait to see Bette meet Tina again. Ok post soon please, thanks!
Love this story. Bette and Helena as sisters seems to work, especially with Helena being so protective and supportive of Bette. I’m intetested to see how Helena will react when she finds out that Bette is actually attracted to Tina.
It’s great that Bette came to her realization about her sexuality and that Helena is beginning to understand that the bulldozer technique isn’t always appropriate. I am however having real difficulty dealing with the idea of Shane playing in a band that does ’70s disco. As Holland is famous for it’s dykes, perhaps they could be The Dutch Girls.
Wasn’t Helena suspicious that Bette knew first hand what happened to Tina on the date? How will Helena feel when Tina and Bette hook up? At first, I guessing maybe a little po’ed. But then happy for them b/c Helena botched up her own chances. Different twist on things. Lots of English vernacular slipped into story that this Yank has to decipher.
They could just call themselves “L Hath No Fury.” I don’t know, I suck at band names.
I really love the whole bette and Helena are sisters, I think thas totally cool.
hey i love this story and i hope it will continue soon
in some ways bette can teach helena a thing or two…can’t wait for b&t to see each other again….the name: The Banger sisters (from movie with goldie hawn and susan sarandon)
ok I was thinking in the best eelk of Duran Duran that they could be call Icum Icum
I don’t know Allye…how will Helena feel when she finds out that Bette has feelings for Tina and she thinks back to their conversation where Bette innocently asked Helena to leave Tina alone. Right now she is thinking it is because Tina can’t handle her and she is so out of her league…but later it may seem like Bette was trying to keep Tina for herself. Helena seems to really like Tina she just went about the wrong way of showing it. I hope this dosen’t affect their sisterly bond but I am sure for drama’s sake it will. I like how Helena is so protective of Bette. I like them so much more as sisters as oppose to lovers…thank you for writing it that way. Keep posting.
God i love this! Yeah, they are sweet. And i love how Helena realised her mistake when she tried to imagine her own sister in the picture… It’s called “put yourself in someone else’s shoes”, Helena! Hey, Ally, do you usually say ‘cow’, or did you use it because of Lament? LOL! Okay, my suggestions for the band in a private mail… Can’t wait for our girls to meet again, and have Tina’s insight on their first meeting… Thanks Ally!
Their sisterly bond is so genuine..hope you keep it that way. How about using an acronymn of the band member names ?
Bette and Hel are so sweet together. Can’t wait for Bette to meet Tina again, on monday? Thanks Ally
