A Few Extra Scenes for Episode Five
Helena sat on the bench by Phyllis’s pool, pondering her attempt at catering the party. She tried to remain serene, even as the emotion continued to roil inside her. The lights reflected on the still surface of the pool, mesmerizing her. She sat with the grace of her upbringing, quietly drawing one leg up to cross it over the other, her calf exposed beyond the separation of the two pieces of fabric toward the bottom of her dress.
“You’re looking thoughtful,” Bette said as she strolled up, and casually took a seat beside Helena on the bench.
“This was intended to be a money making venture and instead I owe Alice $700 for caviar,” Helena sighed. She suddenly realized the oddity in Bette’s presence. “How come you’re still here?”
“I’ve been trying to feel as though I could legally master driving again,” Bette admitted. “Under the guise of helping clean up and discuss University business with my boss, of course.”
“Did you overindulge in the champagne?” Helena asked.
Bette paused.
“Not exactly.”
Helena’s perplexed look did not require the words of question to back it up.
“I shared a joint with Jodi and Tom,” Bette leaned in to share her admission.
“Hmm, now that you mention it, that indeed is the familiar aroma I couldn’t quite place,” Helena smiled. “I can’t say I would have predicted that type of behaviour in you Bette. No wonder you’re seeming so relaxed.”
“That’s the second time tonight someone has implied I’m tightly wound,” Bette sighed.
“And I suspect that’s one of the reasons you ended up high,” Helena accurately noted. “To prove them wrong.”
“I hate that you managed to figure that out,” Bette brought her chin back to look Helena in the eye as she spoke.
“Not much of a leap with the benefit of sobriety,” Helena smirked at Bette’s unspoken assertion that she had somehow put together an intricate puzzle with few clues. “You tend towards the predictable.”
“I’ve been a bit predictable lately,” Bette said, more to herself than to Helena. “I was pretty rude to Tina today, and I saw her almost cower as I spoke. I recognized the reaction in her. She used to just let me be by myself when I acted like a petulant child.”

I cannot believe that you took me there. I’m speechless. LOL. I’m not sure I wanted to go there. As always, excellent writing.
I am looking forward to Bette cutting loose this season. If it’s with Helena Peabody and they are discreet, who’s the wiser? Sometimes one has to take comfort where one can find it. Thanks!
Argggggggggggggggg Bette & Helena? JKS…whyyyyyyyyy…well written but whhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyy? It hurts…make it stop hurting…can you extend the conversation Bette & Tina had at the cafe…perhaps get them to actually talk? That would have been a wonderful way for them to actually have “the talk” about how infedelity led to their downward spiral instead of Bette chopping Tina’s head off.
This was quite delicious. Like a fine Chianti……..
“Wanna Fuck?” ***thud***Lord have mercy…who could say no to that? Drunk or not, the answer is a resounding, YES!!!! Absolutely, yummy! LOL!
Well you DID start the movement!! And I for one am happy to see you come back to our little ship and visit!! I always love..LOVE your writing..so thanks again!
When you are inspired YOU ARE INSPIRED – don’t hold back on us – when you’ve got it and the time give it to us. Thanks I appreciate your gifts.
Very Happy to be a member of the JKS Fanclub! Excellent writing, as always, swimmie. You are a master of the one chapter finely crafted story. *smiles to you*
wow……been a while since i’ve seen new B&H together, the next morning might be funny though, i could imagine tina walking into a really REALLY awkard situation, great story as always.
Maybe you can give the show’s writers some of your inspiration, for they could definitely use it. Excellent job as always.
That was fun. Now why would anyone be shocked that Bette would smoke a joint? Those of us of a certain age practically grew up with the things. BTW, what they did on the show was NOT a shotgun. But anyway, these two should soon not need the excuse of being loaded to carry on. And I’m glad there was no evidence of fava beans or anything else from Hannibal Lechter’s menu to go with that chianti.
funnyone…I thought it was a shotgun..if not, can you explain???
I always cringe when I encounter fanfic that pairs Bette with Helena. As long as this is just a one night fling, I am actually ok with it! LOL
i love it! fantastic writing as usual! thank u! i was really hoping that bette & helena would bump into each other @ the party, but hey i think this is much better than that! way cool! u are the bomb JKS!
WHAT DID YOU DO?! JKS! Sigh… fine… Ok, so, of course this was incredibly well written. I have to say, Bette stoned was the greatest thing maybe ever. You know, I firmly believe that, if B&T can fight that hotly, they aren’t quite over each other yet… Ok, now, I almost hate to say this, and I’m hiding from the other Tibetters as I type, but… I do think B& Helena would be hot together (runs and ducks for cover).
And here I was, thinking that Helena in that black dress was going to go completely to waste… Great as always, jks.
JKS, Your talent shines like a beacon on the darkest of nights, calling all readers to the illumination that your wise and wonderful words bring. Your manage to take the mearest of moments and make them extraordinary. This simple scene of seduction is sensuous and sexy. There is equal measure from the calming of hostilities to the surrendering to the passion and desire. Friends with benefits is now how I will see Bette and Helena after this fabulous fan fiction. JKS you are a mistress of melodrama and a seer of sensuality. Thank you so much for creating this superior story and brightening my day. Your Loyal Fan.
Oh JKS, you know I’m a B&H fiend…can you give us at least one more chapter of this story, then another, then another…not that I’m greedy or anything…Loved the post…Fantastic!
fabbo as usual and I’m damned glad to have logged on today
Wow JKS. That was amazing! Loved the interaction between Bette & Helena. You write it best!!
HOT, JKS!
oh man…sooooooooooooooo mean..how could you stop like this??? i like the idea of B H together..i think they fit..cuz Tina is no longer the right one..hope see more of that soon..thanks
details, details, details, luved the wicked curve, just wished for more…….details!!!!!!!!!
LOVE it … thank you! They’re my favorite couple to write and read about and your writing is excellent. I wish you’d have kept this one going longer! WONDERFUL – thank you!!! :)
Woah… you HAVE to write a sequel, woman! That was fantastic. :D
I really really love your writing, but it should have been with Tina!!!!!
i just feel off my chair at work. ‘wanna fuck’. dont mind if i do. that was as always fantastic. do this anytime you want. what a gift you give when you write. thanks.
loved it! and that’s not something that i usually say about that pairing…
Yours was my first Belena story, and you continue to write them so well. This was truly believeable and would have made a great addition to the fifth show. Can wait to see what else you come up with.
Hmm, my words seem superfluous, I should write; “please see above” hey ? Your legions of Fans have it well covered. However, self important as I am : ) Lovely, there is a very collected pace to this Story, a slow confidence that would indeed befit the Characters you have selected. Although if I may be so bold, the alcohol does not, could not, dilute or disguise the effortless magnetism I believe they have in bountiful purity. Thank you, always a pleasure, elegantly written.
Ah…you are at the top of a VERY short list that can always convince me that Bette and Helena are indeed a good idea! LOL Thanks for this wonderful treat.
wow!!!great chapter. Love the way you wrote this. Excellent!
OMFG…..The mother od the original Belena pairing blesses us with another rendition. I’m not worthy…..I could die and go to heaven now….Thank you JKS….
sky, sky, sky, what AM I going to DO with you?? This is a lovely, HOT, funny Bette and Helena fic..Tina is not in it!! Tina should not be in it!!! come, have a glass of wine, I will see you throught this. JKS…more more please!!!!
BTW…I hope you give us a few more chapters. This is far more interesting than the nonsense they have going on this season
seriously, you are the only one who can make me read about bette and helena…and i’ll just pretend that bette was thinking about tina the whole time ;)
Please advise if begging and pleading will encourage you to continue. Any pairing in your hands just works. I hope more ideas ‘stick’ as it’s always a pleasure to read your posts. Thank you for writing!
This was wonderful. I’m glad you dipped your toe back into the Belena ship with this. I could totally see this happening. It was because of your fic I became interested in Helena and Bette. You’ve got a wonderful style. So please feel free to continue this. Please. Great post.
WOW!!!! That was HOT!!!! B&H having a one night stand right. Thanks
Damn B&H is hot and like it!
Now you DO know you can’t just stop here, right ? This cannot be a single chapter story. Having B & H hook up while they’re drunk is a genius idea, indeed ( even though we are all well aware they’re not that drunk ). I think this short story is very believable and very clever. Besides, your dialogues are absolutely delightful, as usual. I truly love your writing style. Please, post another chapter to this story, your talent is too precious. Pleeeeaaase, JKS… Did I mention I’ve been missing your amazing fanfics lately ?
