First, Last, & Forever? (Version 2.0 – Chapter 13)
CHAPTER 13
Tina held a still-sleeping Bette in her arms, taking comfort in the steady rhythm of Bette’s breathing. Despite her best efforts to keep her attention on their present and future, memories of that afternoon continued to replay in her mind.
Helena had arrived fifteen minutes early for their appointment, completely catching Tina off guard. Unbeknownst to Tina at the time, Bette had made her way back to Tina’s room, ready to apologize for her tantrum, but Helena had just walked in the door. Bette lurked in the doorway, not really wanting to hear their conversation, but unable to tear herself away.
“Hello, darling, I’ve missed you.” Helena had swooped in, trying to kiss Tina on the lips as though nothing was wrong between them. Tina turned her head, and Helena’s lips made firm contact with Tina’s cheek.
“Helena…” Tina’s tone had been stern before her voice had trailed off. Her inclination had been to tell Helena that the attempted kiss had been inappropriate, but she had quickly stopped herself. “Please sit, we need to talk.” Helena complied, giving Tina her best confused look.
“Helena, in case I didn’t make it clear the other day, I don’t want to see you anymore. I have finally accepted that I love Bette, that I’m in love with Bette, and that it is time for me to go home. I really…” Tina couldn’t finish her thought before Helena interrupted.
“Tina, you only think you love Bette. And I understand that, between the death of her father and the birth of the baby, it makes perfect sense that you would think you still love her, darling.” Helena’s tone was so condescending that Tina felt her emotions beginning to override her plan to keep the conversation simple and civil. Her attempts to remain calm were losing the battle to the anger welling up inside her stomach.
“No, Helena, I do love her. Bette is and always will be my first, last, and forever. …” Helena interrupted her again.
“So what does that make me?” She hissed, unable to accept that anyone would choose another over the great Helena Peabody. Especially in favor of Bette Porter, who in Helena’s eyes, was nothing more than Philadelphia street trash in a Stella McCartney suit. Helena couldn’t believe how her own mother had taken to Bette, talking about her like the daughter she never had.

I am first and I am enjoying your story. I know most of the fan fiction stories have Tina using Helena to get back at Bette, but I thought Tina was very attracted to Helena and vice versa. I never thought they were in love, but they were definitely attracted to each other and enjoyed each others company for the short time they were together.
*sighs* I love this story! I will keep leaving comments don’t you worry! And let me tell ya that your chapters have more story in them than the show itself!
well steph she sure looked childish..LOL
Steph, chpaters 12 and 13 are to of the best chapters I have read in a long time. Thanks you for this wonderful story. PPS
Helena was a Bi%%h back then. Now she is quite human. Glad that Bette heard most of the talk. Helena doesnt know Bette nor Tina, they are able to take care of things when they come their way. She has a lot to learn. thanks
I love this story, this open and talking Bette and Tina seem to actually have the chance to make things work long term. As I wasn’t around the first time you posted it I’m very glad you decided to share it with us again. Thanks
Its cool. I still don’t dig Helena..and I really didn’t like her in S2. So, I don’t mind her getting hers handed to her. PPS.
Way to go Tina now all we have to worry about is what Helebitch is going to do to try to upset the perfect family pps.
YAY for me, I got to read two within a few hours of one another. This is awesome! I’m still not a huge fan of Helena. I don’t know…I tend to think, once a calculating b*tch, always a b*tch. Can’t wait to see where things go with B&T! Bring it on girl.
i’m glad the dragon is gone LOL and though Rachel claims that Helena in season 2 was falling in love with Tina, all i saw was an attraction…anyway, what’s next?
ya know I gotta tell ya, I got behind on my reading the last few days and now I’m almost glad, these last several chapters are taking me all kinds of places. Your a great writer, thank you for that. Md
Hey Steph, Enjoyed the chapter even though I’m in the minority with liking Helena. I felt it wasn’t until Tina started displaying her feelings for Bette that Helena became defensive and cocky. Anyway, love your story!
That was awesome, funny about the dragond is gone. Bette is cute and now let see more of B&T please, thanks!
Great chapter. Never did like Helena although she seems to have redeemed herself a little bit in the lst season. Never liked her with Tina and her obsession with pregnant women always had me baffled and still does. She is still aspoiled brat and I don’t think she has changed that much.PPS.
As much as I chortled with glee, I think it’s best and honorable to let the other person down easy. Payback can be a b_ _ _ _ _ (and so could S2 Helena)! Thanks!

nah …helena was a dragon biatch and i’ve been bemused by her ‘sudden’ transformation on the show…great chapter, love what u r doing with them…
My, my–Helena is such a charner! She doesn’t stand a chance, anyway, but she’s certainly not going about this the right way! Bette, of course, shouldn’t have eavesdropped as she did, but I think she needed to hear that, knowing that Tina was clueless about her presence. But drama is sure to come–I knew Helena wouldn’t choose to go away quietly! I guess Tina had to “nicely” tell her to “Step off, b*itch!” Can’t wait for the next chappy, and we’re still waiting impatiently for your other updated story!
