Tina wiped her eyes with a tissue that she’d plucked from the box on the table next to us.
I reached up and rubbed my thumb under her eyes, dabbing a teardrop or two.
“You mean so you can love Helena better,” she sobbed.
I just stared at her. It wasn’t my desire to pour salt in any wounds.
“Answer me, Bette. You love Helena, don’t you?” Tina insisted. “I can see it. I know you. The only other person I’ve ever seen you look at like that is me.”
“Yes, Tina, since you’re demanding an answer from me, I’m in love with her. It’s taken me a bit before being able to move on from us, but I’m definitely in love with Helena,” I said.
“And she’s in love with you?” Tina asked, nervously plucking another tissue from the box.
I heard approaching footsteps and looked up as Helena rounded the corner.
“Yes, I’m in love with Bette,” Helena said quietly. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to intrude. I was just looking for you, Darling,” she explained to me.
I smiled and held out my hand to her. “It’s alright. Come sit down.” I tried to discreetly take her hand, simultaneously desiring to reassure Helena without offending Tina. “Is it alright with you if Helena joins us, Tina?”
“Sure, why not? The more the merrier,” Tina jested, throwing her hands up in the air. “I couldn’t be any more embarrassed at the moment anyway.”
I caressed Tina’s hand with my free one. “Tina, don’t be embarrassed. There’s no reason to be.”
“No, none at all,” Helena agreed.
We sat for a few moments in silence.
Tina looked back and forth between Helena and I.
“Tina, neither Helena nor I are trying to hurt you. At all,” I offered.
“I know. I know you’re not. But how? How did two avowed enemies fall in love with each other?” Tina asked incredulously. “It just totally boggles my mind.”
Helena and I looked at each other and smiled broadly.
“Oh, God, you two really do have it bad for one another!” Tina observed, not unpleasantly.
“Well, our story is kind of a long one. It’s probably best saved for another time,” I replied.

Groowwll!! Nice ending!!! I liked how you handled the Tina situation as well, carry on!!
Well, Tina took it pretty well, even if she was kind of a jerk. I wonder if Helena was able to teach Peggy something about discretion, old dog, new trick. There is some hope because it sounded like Peggy took a page out of Alice’s book. So, Peggy’s a salty dog and and her daughter’s a feline sort. No wonder they fight.
that’s hot! =) waiting for more!
I missed the chance to comment last chapter. 1st, I have to agree with Susanah. I am so sick of Alice acting like it was she and Bette who’d been together 8 years. Hell, it was just a few weeks and she keeps holding on to that the same way Tina is holding on to her anger. Loved how pleasant you made the Tina encounter; although I don’t think she deserved such gentleness.
Ahh, nice! Tina did take that decently enough though she still held that air of Tina-ness so it was very believable! sexy ending and another good chapter. :)
cool chapter…maybe tina will finally, finally – i say – grow up! the chemistry between b&h is soooo palpable. thanks!
I’d like to become a member of the I fucked Bette Porter Club, but for now I’ll settle for honorary status….LOL. I almost caught myself feeling bad for Tina but then i realized that she screwed everything up by going back to Bette after Jely was born but not being completely committed to fixing that relationship. Tina needs to realize that sometimes love isn’t enough and it’s not a reason to stay in an unhappy relationship. I believe that Bette does still love Tina, but like she said she’s in love w/ Helena. Post soon zheese (pretty please)
I just hope Tina stay away and not make trouble…Post soon!
Good chapter Zheese. You handled the Tina situation very well. I myself don’tlike confrontations either so I understand your reasons to write it this way very well. Keep up the good work girl
Nice writing… Bette is the confrontional type though, and I can’t see Tina so calm too… But please continue!
yeah, I agree with skycaptain, Tina so calmly is a little unbelievable… but nice as well :D I’m glad she can understand that B&H really love each other and that she cannot ruin that. And as much as I don’t like confrontations, I think they are always due to the ex partner and Bette was totally doing the right thing letting Tina talk to her. Those two tigresses are sooo fucking hot :D
hi..haven’t left a comment here in a while but thought i might this time because i was very impressed with the way you handled the Tina confrontation. well done! thank you
This is good writing, I can’t picture Tina being THAT calm though…they’re sitting around like they are having tea talking about feelings…lol…there HAS to be some more drama coming. please post soon.
Great update, zheese. Thanks! You handled the Tina & Bette situation well.
it was good to see tina act in a civilized way upon hearing about helena and bette. I cant wait for the next chapter of love making : )
Zheese, Brilliant. I adored Tina’s reaction to Bette and Helena’s love affair. Then topped with Bette’s stance over her new realtionship. Really awesome and astounding writing. I do agree that Tina threw away the best thing in her life when she cheated on Bette. Now that ship has truly sailed as Bette and Helena continue on the “Love Boat” cruise of lust, longing and love. More please real soon as I can’t get enough of your wondrous words. The conversations just ring true. Thank you. Your Loyal Fan.
Very well done Zheese, the Tina situation was handled very weel, LOVE Peggy and her outbursts, now i too would love to become a member of the ‘i fucked Bette Porter club’. Bette and Helena, sexy as ever. Can’t wait for the next one!
