Helena felt a brief moment of panic before a sense of calm over came her and she cleared her throat.
“You would not be wrong,” Helena said meeting Bette’s eyes.
“But then why did you say that? I don’t understand.”
“I was overwhelmed. I wasn’t thinking. I’m sorry.”
“So we’re broken up? Because while I got the feeling things were not quite right, sometimes you look at me and I sense–“
“Bette I’m not in love with you,” Helena blurted the lie slipping out just as easily as the first one she’d told Bette. What was wrong with her? Why did she think lying would get her out of this? Lying was what had started this mess in the first place.
Bette was clearly shocked as she stared at Helena.
“Oh,” Bette finally whispered and shook her head.
Helena bit her bottom lip and kept her gaze steady on Bette’s.
“Bette…”
“I guess…well I guess it’s good that we got that out there. But I don’t know why you came here. Why did you come to help me?”
“I may not be in love with you, Bette. But you are one of my dearest friends. Of course I would come to help you.”
“And take care of me and look at me like you love me. I’m not sure I believe you, Helena. I mean–“
“Bette. I meant what I said. I’m not in love with you.”
“Okay. I believe you.”
“You don’t sound like it,” Helena said her look unsure. “And besides you just said you didn’t believe me. And–“
“Well I believe you now, okay? You don’t have to convince me that you’re not in love with me. I get it. I suppose you’re leaving now?”
Slightly confused at the turn of events Helena could only nod.
“Well I won’t keep you. I just want to say that I appreciate everything you’ve done for me. You truly are a wonderful friend, Helena.”
This had not turned out the way she’d intended.
“Well it was nothing. I would do anything for you, Bette.”
Bette stared at her long and hard.
“I do believe that.”
It was awkward and strained and Helena couldn’t stand it. She made a hasty excuse and fled.
Cowardice at the lowest form.

Brilliant update. Jenny is the best! Where has she been all this time?! :D Can’t wait for more, Speedy. Will Bette listen to the rest of the voice messages? Presumably, they’re from her, and I think that lil fact about Helena saving those messages is very telling. Loving this Helena, do post soon and make her happy! Thanks
Even though it’s really complicated, Helena should have told her the truth: that she loves Bette but Bette’s old self was too stubborn to return her feelings. Oh, the drama! My poor heart!
OH THE DRAMA! OH MY POOR HEART! YOU LEAVE ME LURCHING! I WANT MORE! (CAPS IS FOR EMPHASIS!) MORE MORE MORE! GREAT POST!
Ok I’m sane now. It has been a LONG while. Did I mention that it was LONG time ago? :D I don’t know how Bette will ever find out that she’s in love wtih Helena, although she’s evidently so. I’m anticipating… Really hoping that she’ll realise soon.
I’m going to guess the other 34 are from Bette. One other comment. Don’t worry about the shout outs just get the story out
