Before the Fall – Eight
“Yes.”
“And you mean yourself, right? That I was dating you?”
Tina looked irritated at Bette’s continued disbelief.
Bette wasn’t going to apologize for that. She really couldn’t wrap her mind around it.
“Bette what’s so hard to understand? I was your girlfriend. Am your girlfriend.”
“But you let Helena say she was. Why? Why did you all feel the need to lie to me like that? I mean I could have handled the fucking truth! How do I even know what you’re saying is the truth? How can I even trust you? Because frankly I feel more of a connection with Helena than I do with you Tina.”
“My God!” Tina exclaimed angrily. “There it is again! With the brainwashing. She’s made you think that you’re in love with her but that’s just not true. Okay? You aren’t dating her. She’s not in your life.”
“I didn’t say I was in love with her, Tina. I’m just confused. You went along with this and now you’re saying that you’re my girlfriend. What took you so long? Why the lies? Why now? When Helena’s gone and can’t back up what you’re telling me.”
“Are you calling me a liar?” Tina’s tone was testy.
Bette shrugged.
“I’m just saying I don’t know who’s telling me the truth. I didn’t see you here taking care of me. Putting your life on hold for me.”
Tina sat back with a glare.
“Just because I’m not a billionaire heiress who can drop everything when need be, doesn’t mean that I wasn’t concerned for you. That I didn’t love you. I do. I always have, Bette. Since the very first time I met you.”
Bette glanced away from Tina’s heartfelt gaze and down at her hands.
This was beyond awkward and Bette didn’t know what to say to Tina. Really she shouldn’t have said what she had. She couldn’t compare Tina and Helena. It was all based on a lie.
“I really don’t know what to say, Tina. I’m just not feeling anything between us. I can’t look at you and see you as a potential partner. I’m not in the right frame of mind. In fact it’s just too early for me to be dealing with this. I’m tired. I’m going to go see if I can fall back asleep. Since uh… since we’re dating and all I’m sure you can see yourself out. Okay?”

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
