    Before the Fall

    by: speed_racer

     

     

    Helena was sleeping down the hall from her.

    It took some getting used to. Being out of the hospital and back at her house. A place she couldn’t remember, and with things she didn’t recognize. She’d been sure to thank Helena for making sure the house was set up properly.

    In fact she’d been overly polite to Helena and Helena had been the same with her. Which made her wonder about that. Because while she had a sense of comfort with Helena that she didn’t with anyone else, she wasn’t sure how Helena felt about all of this.

    She was hesitant to ask Helena how she felt.

    Because she wasn’t sure how she felt about all of this. She could see how she could be attracted to Helena, how they could be in a relationship, but she couldn’t see how it was going to continue. At least not right now.

    She could see that her friends were trying to give her space and let her be alone, which she appreciated. Being stuck at home because of her broken leg was bothersome, but Helena had given her a big pile of things to look through that dealt with her galleries so that occupied some of her time.

    The other part was spent in therapy and physical therapy.

    The hospital seemed like a home away from home most days.

    The first night she’d been in her house she had realized she didn’t want to be alone, and knowing that she and Helena didn’t live together made it even tougher to ask Helena to stay. But once she’d gotten the words out Helena had taken up residence in the guest bedroom.

    One thing she was appreciative of was that Helena was not crowding her by asking if she remembered anything all of the time. In fact none of her friends were asking her that. Which was a good thing because she knew she would freak out if they constantly asked.

    Warily Bette rubbed at her brow as she felt a slight headache coming on. She sighed and leaned back against the couch cushions and regarded the television with something akin to contempt.

    Three hundred channels and nothing was on.

    1. The one thing that’s wrong with computers is that they can crash. Darn them… darn them all to heck! This is gonna get hella complicated if Bette tries to break up with Helena even though they’ve never been together. Drama hurts my poor heart but it’s addictive.

    2. Sorry about your computer…thanks for finding a way to post for us. I can imagine how Bette feels…everyone is keeping her in the dark. What will Helena say when Bette tries to breakup?

    3. It’s good. :D Follow your heart. I think maybe Bette knows that Helena isn’t really her girlfriend, but doesn’t want to admit it you know? Like she doesn’t want to know the truth. Well, my theory is that she loves Helena all the while, but is too afraid to admit it. Great job speedy. I know how it feels to have everything lost in computer wreckages BUT, maybe it’s fate, or your characters want you to potray them differently or… The flying sphagetti monster wanting some booze. I loved your writing so much, and would very much hope you would continue! Please Post again! Your’e the best!

    6. Great update. So sorry to see the awkwardness. It seems Bette has some intuition about what Helena was going to tell her but she didn’t want to hear it. But she wants to break up with her. Even with her insomnia she has to be in control. If Bette does break up with her Helena needs to hightail it back to NY and let Bette come for her.

    7. Great to see you found the courage to re-write all this again. I’m sorry you lost everything you had so far but you’re a great writer so don’t let this get you down Speedy. I hope you won’t let them break up but the situation is indeed very akward for bth of them. Maybe give them some psace and let Bette realize she misses Helena and wants her back :)Thanks for posting.
