“You were really concerned this evening, after you talked to Alice, that I might go back to Tina weren’t you?” Bette asked, pressing her lips to the top of my head.
“Yes.”
“Because?” Bette inquired.
I sighed and pulled her arms more tightly against me. “Well, why shouldn’t I be concerned, Bette? You have a long history together. You loved one another and you have a child together. Alice told me today that Tina said she still loves you. She still thinks about getting back with you.” I ran my fingers lightly over her arms.
Bette took a long contemplative breath. “Your fear is understandable, but unfounded, Helena. I’m not sure what I can say to convince you of that. I keep trying to tell you that Tina and I have been over for a long time. And yes, I’m sure she still loves me. And I still love her. We always will love each other. But not in the same way that we once did. And, yes, we have a child together. But, Helena, there’s so much hurt and pain between Tina and I.” Bette hesitated and her voice grew sullen. “The pain of feeling like I’m not competent to compensate for a fucking dick. The pain and disrespect of having my bedroom violated. The pain of having to fight for the right to see my daughter. The pain of my own mistakes. The pain of…”
“Bette. Stop. You’re torturing yourself.” I unclasped Bette’s arms from around me and stood before straddling her. I looked Bette in her eyes. “I want to help take your pain away,” I said, kissing her softly.
“You are,” Bette said quietly, caressing my face with her hand.
I reached up and took her hand. “I need to tell you something, Bette.”
“What?” she asked, lacing our fingers together.
“You know the Art Exhibit you said you’d attend with me Thursday night?”
“Yes. What about it?” she replied.
“Well, there’s a good chance Tina’s going to be there. I knew the gallery was inviting several studio executives to this opening. I just didn’t know who exactly. This afternoon, when I saw Tina, she asked me if I was going to be there. Apparently, she received an invitation. At the time, I didn’t realize, of course, that she had seen us together and talked to Alice. But now I know why she was acting so strangely and why she was so curious as to whether I was attending. And she asked if I was bringing my ‘new girlfriend’ that she heard me talking to on the phone yesterday.”

I second Helena’s “Damn, bloody phones” even if I’m not British and never say ‘bloody’ unless I actually mean something is bloody. She ought to be feeling reassured now. But who and what is waiting on the other end of the line?
Zheese, That was intense!! Absolutely fabulous to get Bette and most importantly Helena talking about their emotions again. This was so sadly lacking from Bette and Tina’s relationship in the end so it is refreshing to see how Bette has grown. And to be so near to that mind blowing moment then be robbed by the phone. Unjust I say. Means that I want double helpings in the next installment. Pretty please. Thnak you so much for this wondrous writing and terrific tale. Your Loyal Fan.
I can see the drama coming soon…These ladies are HOT together! Post Soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great writing! Phonus Interruptus!
Again another great chapter Zheese. Well done and B & H really belong together. Please let it be Peggy on the phone. Post soon thankx
I think it would be quite fitting if it was, indeed, Tina on the phone. Funny, too. I just wanted to let you know this is the only Belena story I follow. Just fyi. So it must be good, cause I’m a Tibetter!
Phones suck! and apparently so does Helena!!;) hehehe great chapter glad to see Bette talking to Helena. Can’t wait to see Bette and Peggy interact AND how the hell is on the bloody phone!!
you are so wrong for that…the ringing phone…that is cold blooded…lol. nicely done bette, reassuring helena; and helena’s fears are so genuine…good job zheese…feels real…can’t wait for the next post.
You have done it again! Bloody phone call-cliffhanger! Geez zheese! You’re great and I love how B&H are learning how great and expressive love can be. Please keep this story going:)
Love this. I’m setting on the fence tho. Love Tand Bette. but I beginning to love B and H I feel like Tina is going to give the some shit. Drama is the name of the game. thanks
Oh damn the phone! LOL! Thanks zheese for the great update.
“Damn…Bloody Phones!” is right! UGH so frustrating!! Zheese your writing is just marvellous! I so hope Peggy is at the Art exhibit, she is so fab! I really can’t wait to see Tina’s reaction, bring on the drama!!
these 2 are so fucking hot!!! i hope Tina can act like a grown up when she see Bette and Helena together.
phones always get in the way, i can vouch for that, another trimuph of belena history, naked on the porch, what’s next? the roof? lol great chapter as always
I retrieve my jaw from the floor! Great chapter, it’s very hot! You’ve a very good writing style, combining sex and love into something that is so magical! I eagerly anticipate your next chapter!:D Thank you for writing Zheese, you’re a genius!
I’d like to see a follow-up to this chapter…SOOOOON!
1st – Thanks for allowing them to talk openly with one another regarding their fears and desires. 2nd – More importantly, I thank you for allowing them to LISTEN to and UNDERSTAND what the other is feeling. 3rd – Thank you one last time for allowing their feelings for each other to be purely genuine and NOT based on the “rebound” factor. QQ’g 4ward 2 the Art Exhibit and Tina being there…………bring the drama!! Let’s see how our girls really act in a tight situation. Will they stand behind the words that they’ve shared? And whoever is on that phone better have one hell of a terrific reason for interrupting me………..I mean them!! LOL
sorry zheese, just picking my tongue up off the floor. These two are so hot together! I can’t wait to see how things go at the art exhibit. I hope Peggy is there b/c she is simply magnificent and I always felt like she had a little crush on Bette (not that she would ever act on it) so i’m sure she is pretty damn pleased that her little girl is w/ such a spectacular lady. Tina’s reaction to seeing Bette and Helena out in public as a couple is going to be priceless. So who is on the phone? Damn these interruptions. i hope all the kids are ok, Bette’s and Helena’s. Post soon please.
oh come on now that wasnt fair. dumb phone and it better not be tina. Because she’s probably spying on them still
Great chapter. Stupid phone..hope it’s not Tina interrupting
Hot hot hotness. I love those two, and I can’t wait to see Tina’s reactoin. Great update.
Youre a God for writing this story it rules:)
Zheese, Wow, it feels like months (probably because it has been). Not going to bore you with all the details of why I haven’t been keeping up with this, but, I’ve spent the last 45 minutes or so catching up. WHAT A STORY! You’ve got such tact, such a gift! The way you paint the picture of Helena and Bette is enchanting, like I’m watching it unfold on the big screen. You’re even amazing writing Alice and Tina. When you become a famous writer, do send it to me. I’ve loved this thoroughly, and added you to my favorite author list. Amazing. I can’t focus in on one thing…I can’t single my brain down to one thing, but WOW! -Ms. Bp.s. Thanks for reading my story
