Three Time’s a Trend
The first time was unintentional. The second time was spontaneous. And the third time…well it set the trend. The first time could be written off, the second time due to hormones, but the third time…
The third time set the trend.
They were dating.
"Hey…I guess you’re still out. I just wanted to call and see how it went. Um…call me, please. Oh! And I also wanted to say that I–never mind. Wait. Uh…I hope you had a great time. Sorry that I couldn’t uh– just tell Peggy that I said hello. Bye."
Bette hung up hurriedly sighing as she turned back to her work.
Her phone rang a few minutes later.
"Yes?" Bette answered shortly.
"What a wonderfully rambling message, darling," Helena said and Bette could hear the smile in her voice.
"I try," Bette said a smile tugging at her lips.
"Hmm. I do love how you try," Helena said her voice going low.
"How did it go? Did you have fun?" Bette asked sitting back and relaxing for the first time in hours.
"I had a certain amount of fun."
"I’m sure you wowed them. Bet you had them eating out of your hands. How much did you get out of them?"
"Let’s just say that Phyllis is beyond thrilled. She said that it more than made up for the snafu with Jodi scaring away that potential donor."
"That’s wonderful. How did you feel? Did it feel good wining and dining, schmoozing?"
"Absolutely. But you know what?"
"What?" Bette asked closing her eyes and enjoying the sound of Helena’s voice.
"I would have had a better time with you by my side."
"I’m sorry I couldn’t be there. But work has me swamped."
"Don’t I know it."
Bette glanced up as Helena’s voice sounded entirely too close.
Helena grinned at Bette as she stepped into the doorway.
"You look amazing," Bette breathed letting her eyes trail over Helena with blatant approval.
"I know," Helena acknowledged. "And let’s hang up shall we?"
Bette chuckled as she hung up.
"I’m serious…that dress is just…no wonder you made a killing."
Helena arched a brow and gave a twirl letting the skirt of her dress flare out.
"When I bought this I thought you would be coming with me."
