“Helena.” I could hear the playful warning signal in her tone. It made me smile. “Please don’t talk suggestively to me on the phone. Or I’ll soon be sitting in a puddle.”
I laughed.
“What happened to throwing caution to the wind?” I asked, jesting.
“Touché!” Bette laughed in response.
“Is your day going well? I do have a couple of things I want to tell you,” I proceeded.
“My day’s good, Helena,” she answered, “considering that rushed and frustrating start we experienced this morning. I did so want to spend more time with you when we awoke.”
“I know, Darling. I did too,” I replied.
“What did you want to tell me?” Bette asked, hastening the conversation along. “I don’t have much time left to chat. Oh, and how are things going? With Tina? In the office? I know you were concerned about working together with her, once she knew we were seeing each other.”
“Well, that’s a bit of what I wanted to tell you. It seems she took a personal day today, so she’s absent. I haven’t seen her, but I did talk to her briefly. She said she wanted to stay home with Angelica,” I informed Bette.
“Angelica? Why? What’s wrong with Angelica?” Bette asked excitedly. “I have to call her!”
“Calm down, Sweetheart. It’s alright! Nothing is wrong. Tina just said that she’s still feeling a little puny from her shots yesterday. That’s normal, Darling.”
“Are you sure?” Bette asked apprehensively.
“Yes, Darling, I’m sure. I’m a mother too, you know?” I answered.
“So you are,” Bette laughed quietly.
“And besides, I truly believe Tina was just using staying home with Angelica as an excuse to avoid me,” I explained quickly. “You see, besides my being aware that her schedule is taking her out of the office on Thursday for a location visit, I also talked to Alice shortly after I got off the phone with Tina.”
“Oh?” Bette replied. “And?”
“Alice told me that Tina called her last night and asked her to attend tomorrow night’s Gallery Opening with her. Seems Henry isn’t too keen on modern art, or some such excuse,” I said.
“Then why attend at all? Why doesn’t Tina just stay home?” Bette inquired.

1st,,I think…whatever that gets you. brb
zheese…another well written chapter that will transition us with the art showing and Tina Queena. PP is pretty intimidating. Even Bette seemed flustered when Peggy kind of cornered Bette. Who knows what will transpire…only you zheese. There are no guarantees in any relationship.
Man, Bette has all the Peabody women eating out of her hand. So Bette said it out loud and to her lover’s mother. Must be true. But those big, fat bankrolls can’t hurt, either.
I sure hope Helena was just rounding the bend to catch Bette’s offered confession. :) Can’t wait for the drama to commence again at the gallery opening with Tina’s jealous shenanigans. I know it’s wrong to wish ill of anyone, but S3 Tina really is due her cumeuppance. This is strictly my opinion, of course. Bring it on, Zheese!
Forgive me, comeuppance would be the proper spelling. All this sex B&H share is warping my brain.
Wow! Just…..wow! I’m smiling my azz off like it was me that Bette leaned over and was speaking too instead of Momma “Rockafella” Peabody! Can’t wait til Helena hears those words herself. Now…….let’s get to that gallery…………shall we? (insert evil grin here)…………..I hope Tina overhears Bette tell Helena she is falling in love with here (insert ANOTHER evil grin here)!
AWWWWW, bette has found love once again.
Always so pleased to see that you’ve updated, zheese! You’ve personified Peggy so perfectly that it nearly astounds me. I can hear her almost dry voice saying all these words with a purse of her lips and a turn of her nose. Absolutely fabulous- and quite touching with Peggy asking Bette her intentions. I truly enjoy this story, and I thank you for sharing. :)
Brilliant as usual
ditto..brilliant…tres bien.
Thanks for another wonderful chapter! I adore Peggy and the way she’s concerned with her daughter’s welfare at the hands of Bette.
Catching my breath here. You just have to love Peggy. Bette and Helena, gotta say it again as much as I love B&T, these two together, hot is not even a good enough description. Can’t wait for the gallery opening. snQQpy, you are so bad.
love the entrance of Peggy P. Another great chapter.I like seeing B & H proceed cautiously not so many declarations of love.
Thanks for another great chapter zheese. How cute is Peggy asking Bette about her intentions w/ her daughter. I did i read right; did Bette just admit to Peggy that she is in live w/ Helena? that is great; now she just needs to work up the courage to say the words to helena; though i understand the need to move slow and not rush into such heavy feelings having just come off that horrible brek up w/ Tina. Can’t wait for the enxt chapter zheese.
wow Zheese this was so charming once again.L And I’m so happy our girl found love again. Now bring on the drama and give little miss (I wanna hurt you forever’ Tina a piece of her own cake. Thx
Great update….So one Ms Bette Porter is falling for one Helena Peabody…I LOVE IT….Continue on please!
Bette and Helena make a fantastic couple. I think Tina is going to regret going to the gallery. she may see things that will probably put her into a tailspin. Very nice chapter.
wow, Go Peggy!!!! And yes, they’re falling in love…anyways this is a great story and I can’t wait for the next chapter.
Great chapter, as always. Thanks zheese!
Oh how i love this story so!! Love Peggy and her showing concern for Helena’s well being. And absolutely loved Bette’s answer! You’re writing is wonderful, thank you for writing such a beautiful story. Eagerly await the next chapter.
