No such luck, Bette grimaced and frowned trying to think what the password might be.
She tried Helena’s middle name.
She tried Helena’s birthday.
A thought occurred and she was just about to put in her own birthday when the doorbell rang and startled her.
She almost dropped the phone and immediately felt guilty.
She’d been about to invade Helena’s privacy.
“Hey Bette!”
That wasn’t Alice, Bette noticed as she moved slowly from the kitchen, pocketing the cell phone as she did so.
“Tina what are you doing here?” Bette asked curiously as she met the blonde in the kitchen doorway.
Tina smiled widely at her as she shed her coat and tossed it onto the couch.
“Can’t I come visit you?” Tina asked.
No, was Bette’s thought.
“Not unless you call first,” Bette said. She knew she should feel bad for saying something so rude but she didn’t care. People had to call before they came over. Her friends all knew that now and abided by that new rule.
Tina’s smile dimmed.
“Sorry, but Alice called and said she couldn’t make it and I said I’d come instead. Do you want me to leave?”
Bette moved back towards the livingroom couch.
“You’re here so you might as well stay.”
“With a welcome like that how could I say no?” Tina asked mockingly even as she took a seat on the couch next to Bette.
“Easily I suspect. You just say the words.”
Tina laughed and Bette knew that Tina thought she was joking.
Which she hadn’t been.
“So Helena’s gone? Bette I am so glad. I just…how are you doing? How are you taking it? Are you okay?” Tina reached out and placed her hand on Bette’s arm.
Bette glanced at Tina.
“How am I doing? You mean with the fact that Helena isn’t in love with me and she was doing this out of pity? Is that what you’re talking about?”
“What? Is that what she told you?”
Tina seemed as incredulous as Bette did about the whole thing.
“Well…um I’m glad she told you,” Tina said after a momentary pause where it seemed she was thinking things over. “Because it’s not right the way she was using you and making you think that this was your life. It wasn’t.”

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
