“Now that’s a tall order,” Alice joked lightly. “I’m sure Helena’s given you her version of “us”, so I won’t bore you with that.”
“She told me a condensed version of things.”
“Well We’ve been friends for years. Almost ten in fact. We’ve been through a lot of shit, Porter. In the trenches I kid you not.”
Bette glanced at her and smiled.
“That’s good to know. When I met you I wondered how we could be friends.”
“Yeah I get that a lot. You’re serious and I’m really not. But some how we manage it. You’re my best friend.”
Alice had to pause as she got choked up looking at Bette in such a sad state. With no memories. With nothing anchoring her to the past but them, and she didn’t even remember them.
“You can tell me how long Helena and I have been together,” Bette said to break the silence her gaze drawn back to the television.
“Oh…um…whoa that came out of nowhere.”
“Not really. I asked Helena but she didn’t answer me. Since you’re my bestest-best friend I thought you could tell me. I guess she’s not a new girlfriend because of how you all act around her, but I would like to know how long so that I can act accordingly.”
“Accordingly? Whoa! Bette you don’t have to act anyway, you know that right? You’re the one who has to adapt to all these new people and shit. Whatever relationship you had with Helena is different now. I think she just wants to deal with the now part of your relationship.”
“But how am I going to get my memories back if I don’t know these things?” Bette demanded an edge to her voice.
Alice grimaced and then sighed.
“I know. But you just woke up from a coma. You need time to adjust and the truth is so do we. You’ll get an earful about all the juicy stuff once you’re out of the hospital and back home.”
“I don’t like that. I want to know now. I don’t want to just sit around and wonder all of these things and not have you explain them to me! How hard is it to say ten years? Five years? Six months? You’re acting like the amount of time Helena and I have been together has no bearing on things but it does! Can’t you just tell me?”

Wow…Tina has a point. When Bette finds out what is going on that’s it…I love this story. Thank you for the 7 pages…I still want more. Keep posting.
this is so intriguing…i wonder who will win, tina or helena or neither…it seems a coma can change a person’s enitre personality…maybe bette will chuck them all in…please post as soon as possible
You know i love this story… and I can’t help but feel a little sorry for Tina. BUt everyone is talking like what if BEtte doesn’t get her memories…blah blah…BUT what if Bette does get her memories back…she will not be a happy camper knowing that she was quite literally taken advantage of…time will tell…
Woah, emotional overload! lol. I think the Bette Porter we all know and love will come back in full force if she finds out that they’ve been lying to her. No wonder they’re keeping schtum! Can’t wait for the next chapter!
Speedy, you’ve been one busy racer! ;) – 7 damn pages…oh mah goodnezz! I couldn’t read it all at one time. But, now that I’m done, I think that since Bette has just been awakened by Amanda, Tina’s on her way out the hospital, and Bette is not leaving until tomorrow afternoon means that Helena needs to march her pretty azz right back into that room, sit down, and tell Bette the truth. Memories or no memories, Bette is not detached from reality – she can tell that everyone is keeping something from her. Helena, along with the truth needs to tell Bette the reason behind the lie. I’d much rather see Bette pissed off now than pissed off later.
I watched a TV drama before, where the husband had an affair with the mistress for YEARS. But then when he met a car accident, he completely couldn’t remember the mistress at all. Even when he saw the photos. Kind of sad really… although that can happen. In this case, I think that’s how Tina feels… I feel sorry for Tina, being the girlfriend and all that, but forgotten. I sense a war here.. It’s exciting, but I do root for Helena and Bette to be together… :D
Just catching up….All is can say is “Wow”!!! BYMAPS
I’m with Pandamel I love this story.. God what a mess our girls are in. Perhaps Helena can tell Bette that they broke up and she was with Tina lately. So sad the Tina has known for years that Bette had feelings for Helena, everyone knew. Perhaps now is finally the time when no one is lying to Bette. Helena has always been Bette’s love. Its a part of her “embedded code”. Everyone is just finally admitting it. What a great story. Thanks for the early Christmas gift
