A Thin Line
And at least Helena, unlike her former lover, was not possessed to start fucking men, in cyberspace, on the movie set, against the entrance to her girlfriend’s boudoir, or in any other way. Once Tina forever broke the camel’s back by humping a man, Bette and Tina were over. And that, my friends, was what banged the door open, forgive the reference, to Helena’s destined connection with the woman who once reviled her.
******************
“C’mon, Bette! You need to get out. You don’t have Angelica tonight. It’ll just be Shane, and me, and you. Oh, and Helena.”
“Helena! Alice, what are you thinking? I was about to agree to your offer, but I don’t know if I can stand to be around that woman tonight,” Bette complained.
“I was thinking you’ve been tolerating her rather well. You’ve been around each other socially recently and haven‘t killed one another. You two actually have a lot in common. Adoption of children from former partners. Meditation practice. You’re both strong. Independent,” I sighed at Bette’s obstinance. “You are so stubborn. If you talked to each other, you might find, that deep down, you actually liked each other. She’s not all that bad, ya know. She’s helped me through some difficult times recently.”
“So you’ve told me. Alright, I’m tired of arguing with you. I’ll come. But I swear, one foul word from that woman and I’m outta there, Alice.”
“Helena’s not like that anymore, Bette. I promise. You’ll have fun.”
“We’ll see. Meet you later. About ten-ish. At the Planet, right?”
A little after 10 o’clock, I looked up to see Bette sauntering towards our table. She looked different. I’d never seen her hair pulled back in a braid. It was stunning. She wore a black form-fitting sweater with a plunging neckline. And as she made her way through the crowd, I noticed around the room heads turned, and mouths fell open. She did look ravishing.
As she neared our table, I raised my arm to wave her over. It was then that I barely overheard, but did not have time to process, Helena whispering, “My God, she’s breathtaking.â€
“Hey, Bette,†I greeted her. “You made it.â€
“Sorry, I’m late. I was getting Angelica‘s room ready for her visit this weekend, and I lost track of time.â€

I have been waiting to see if you were going to update, but since you haven’t yet, I’ll comment. I really like the way this is beginning and would love to see you continue. It’s good to see a different side of Helena and actually have some detailed explanation for the change. It would also be great to have a chance to see how Bette recovers from the breakup with Tina and moves on with her life. Thanks! Please don’t keep us waiting too long.
