A Thin Line – Chpt 5
I laughed again. Her enthusiasm was endearing to me. “Helena, slow down. It’s quite alright that you called,†I reassured her. “I’m anxious to understand last night as well. If it makes you feel any better, I hardly slept at all last night thinking about it. How about you?â€
“Well, since you’re being so honest, I’ll confess to you, no, not a wink,†she answered.
“I’m sorry to hear that, but not too surprised either. I did just get up from a nice nap though,†I offered, suddenly recalling but not daring to speak of how I’d tranquilized myself earlier that afternoon. “And Angelica is still sleeping. So you called at a perfect time.â€
“How is your Angelica?†Helena asked.
“Beautiful and full of energy. Thank you for asking. She’s wanting to walk. So she’s doing the cutest thing. She turns her back to me, grabs both of my hands, pulls up, and coaxes me until I give in and stand. Then she walks me all over the house, non-stop. She can‘t get enough of it.â€
“That’s adorable, Bette. I can tell you are a mother in love with your child.â€
“I most definitely am,†I agreed, becoming more comfortable with the conversation. I walked into the living room and sat down on the sofa, propping my feet up. Using my free hand, I picked up Angelica’s plush stuffed kitten toy and ran my thumb over its whiskered cheek. “And how are your children, Helena?â€
“I miss them, Bette. I haven’t seen them for three weeks. Except utilizing the webcam. And that’s an inadequate substitute for having them in my arms.†She sighed, and I felt badly for her.
“That must be very difficult for you,†I empathized.
“It is. But on the bright side, we are planning an extended visit next month,†Helena said enthusiastically.
“Oh, well, I’m sure you’re excited about that then.â€
“Indeed, I am.â€
I was running out of small talk. A short uncomfortable silence ensued before I heard her voice again. I felt the mood shift.
“Bette?†I could hear a mild trepidation in way she spoke my name.
“Yes, Helena. I’m here,†I replied softly.
“Bette, I don’t want to upset you. But I don’t know how to proceed. Please know my intention is not to be presumptuous…â€

Again, I love your Helbette story…pls post soon…This helena is quite endearing
just a meal and a walk on the beach, huh?.. well, whatever these two do together, I’m willing to see/read that!
I personally have always prefered brunettes over blondes, but the chemistry that B&T have can it be matched by B&H
I have to admit that an unsure Helena is a charming Helena. Thank you for another chapter that leaves me smiling and sighing.
Yay! I thought I’d test my luck and see if you’d updated before I went off to bed, and yes yes you have. I loved this, as per usual. I liked the whole intimacy with Bette and the playful banter between the two on the phone. I’m excited for Bette! This all seems so natural, like it could very well be written in on the show. (which, after seein the finale, I am starting to lose hope in) So, I’m glad you’re continuing. :) And check your mail, if you haven’t gotten the note I left a few days ago.
I really like Helena and Bette together. Lets keep them together thanks
You’re making Helena very endearing. She certainly knows how to “court” a woman.
Ok, I’ve pimping this story and a couple of others on the discussion board at the Helena/Bette thread!! Soooo I’ve decided to actually leave a comment:) Love the story and the pace of it. I always look forward to your postings and can’t wait for more!!
love Helbette together, thank u for writing this story, you have a way with words, cant wait for the next one.
I’m enjoying this.
Great build up – I am curious how you’re going to bring these two together…that is the plan right?
very nice set up..i see good things in their future together..thank you :)
So glad to see an update. I’m really enjoying this.
Zheese, Another magnificent morsel into a potential pleasureable paramour between Bette and Helena. These way that Bette and Helena are beginning to open up to one another is marvelous. They are tip-toeing towards each other with such awe and deference. Afraid to make the wrong move but equally propelled to make a move. The temptation is there and must be challenged and satified to allow them to take the final leap. This is a must read tale now. I only hope that IC reads your fantastic fan fiction and realizes just how magically this partnership could become. You have pitched it perfectly and managed to capture and portray the desires and needs for both Bette and Helena as they succumb to their emotions. Can’t wait for the following chapter as the gal meet for dinner and…. Your Loyal Fan.
God I love this story. Please post more soon.
Another excellent chapter zheese. Do I detect a certain familiarity with the french language? Merci beaucoup pour l’histoire de Bette et Helena…..
Good job. Bring on more please.
Get Job on the story!!!!! Keep it coming. I Love Helena and Bette together.
Another great chapter, zheese! Love your narrations ^_^
Love the way you captured their vulnerability and hope. You’ve left me wanting more.
