A Thin Line – Chpt 6
Bette sat with her right elbow on the table, her chin in her hand. She was listening intently, as she stroked the back of Angelica’s head with her other hand’s fingertips.
I stopped for just a second to sip my beer before continuing.
“Then she asked me why I thought people always hurt the ones they love. We started talking about why school boys pull the pigtails of the little girls they had crushes on. She basically said it was to get attention and to disguise to the rest of the world their real feelings, so that if the little girls didn’t return their crush, nobody was the wiser.â€
Bette removed her chin from her hand and hung her head, rubbing her forehead.
“So that’s it,†she said. “That’s why you kept talking last night about her pulling my braid.â€
I nodded. “Uh-huh. Now you’ve got it.â€
Bette stood. I watched her. As she lifted Angelica from her highchair, she was deep in thought.
“Let’s go sit in the living room so Angelica can play,†she said quietly.
She sat Angelica on a pallet on the floor to play with her toys. And we each sat on opposite ends of the couch.
After a few moments of reflection, Bette asked, “Sooo Tina? How did Helena wind up with Tina, if she was interested in me? And why was she interested in me? How did she even know me?â€
“Can I have another beer, Bette?†I asked.
“Sure, go ahead.â€
When I returned to the living room, I answered Bette’s questions to the best of my ability.
“Bette,†I said, very seriously, “why wouldn’t Helena be interested in you? You are one of the most beautiful, passionate, fascinating women in all of L.A.â€
She rolled her eyes and shook her head.
“You are!†I affirmed. “How did she know you? I don’t know the answer to that question. You’d have to ask her that one. And as for how she wound up with Tina, well, that’s another question for her to answer. But I have my suspicions.â€
“Which are?†Bette inquired.
“Bette, you know sometimes people do crazy things. I’ve actually been thinking about this very question today. How did Helena end up with Tina, when she was so crazy about Bette?â€

this anticipation is driving me insane..pls post soon….LOVE it!!!
“I trust your selections. I look forward to our little tasting,†Helena said. Oh, was it my imagination that I heard innuendo and seduction dripping from that reply? HA! You are getting me so stoked for their in person meeting…hold the reins tighter zheese, these two really want to go at it…
OMG POST ANOTHER SOON!Suddenly all these Helebette ships, are suddenly appearin lol!
I don’t mind when you change voices at all, quite the contrary. I loved how Bette played Alice like a violin. Got her so excited I’m not sure a severe case of ‘roids would have kept her ass from bouncing in the seat.
I’m so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dying here, can’t wait for the meeeting, absolutely loving it! thank you.
Zheese…Don’t listen to JKS…loosen those reins and let’er rip!!!
Anxiously awaiting the continued build up of this one…
OMG, talk about foreplay. This is gonna be good, i just know it. Its strange but I’ve actually started to think that a Bette & Helena get together may not be such a bad idea. I love T&B but hey she’s gone off the deep end, and its time Bette had some pleasure in life. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I’m looking forward to the next chapter as much as Bette and Helena are!! Thanks!
Hey Z, bring on the dinner!! Can’t wait!!!
come on date time! LOL… Great job!.. I’m really enjoying this story! Keep the chapters coming ;)
Loving the story, always glad to see an update.
God the sexual tension is so thick so far in this story you couldn’t cut it if you tried! Great update, can’t wait for more!!
I’m waiting on this date –oop== meeting. Bette and Helena at least Helena will treat Bette like a queen. Queen Elizabeth I’m tired so being silly Thanks
I’ve always loved the idea that it would be Helena, the powerful heiress, who can literally have anything she wants, who has a crush on someone seemingly unattainable to her. Hate/Love is my favourite romantic progression, and Helena and Bette certainly have that going for them! I’m excited to see what direction you’ll take them in (as long as it leads to the bedroom somewhere along the line), and it must be said, your writing style and technique are incredible! You’re clearly very talented, and I’m glad you’re sharing your talent with our little fandom!
Zheese, Another piece of perfection as the slow burn tortuously takes its time in arriving at the main event. The dialogue flows simply and easily allowing an insight into each of the characters and staying true to their voices thus far. This buildup is truly tantazingly as Bette and Helena gradually test each other. They torment and tease one another with the slightest hint of temptation as to what might be. Beautifully written and constructeddd. Thank you so much for this fabulous fan fiction. Can’t wait to see where it leads to next. Your Loyal Fan.
Oh yeah the innuendo was flying! Sweet! Soo..Bette will get all sexily dressed and then drop Angelica off at Tina’s so Tina can she was she will never get again, right???;)
I love it! I love it I love it its all I can say I really can’t wait for a new part to come along this is something Id really want to see happening in the series
I love the flirtatious thing going on btn them two. Cant wait till next chpt. Keep up the good work Z.
U can’t leave us hanging like this, zheese… bring on the date .. umm ..i mean meeting ;-)
Well, I’m grinning as usual. I get so wrapped up in this that when it’s finally over and I’m staring at blank white computer screen I feel bad. I just had to read it again. You seriously have these characters down to a science…to Bette’s playful banter with Alice, and even with Alice’s quirks. Everything was right in sync. Why don’t you high-tail it over to Ms Ilene and hand her this story, telling her that you’d probably make a good addition to the team of writers. Yes, yes, that’s a very good idea. I can’t wait to see what sort of nibbling and tasting Bette and Helena (whoa, almost wrote Tina there out of habit) get themselves into. But, knowing this story thus far, whatever happens will not disappoint. I give this an A plus plus, not that my opinion matters. Oh, and, I’ll respond to your note a bit later, it was very nice of you to respond. Looking forward to the next!
