Alice shrank back at Bette’s angry voice.
“What’s wrong?” Helena asked as she stepped into the room glancing at both of them. Obviously picking up on the tension.
Alice remained silent not sure what to say.
Bette didn’t have that problem.
“How long have we been together, Helena?” Bette asked bluntly.
“A year or so. But we’ve been friends forever. Years. It was a gradual thing,” the lie slid smoothly from Helena’s lips.
Alice could only stare at Helena in silent wonder with wide-eyes.
“A year,” Bette repeated to herself the anger in her voice sliding away just as suddenly as it had appeared.
Helena slid her gaze to Alice’s and then quickly back to Bette.
“How are you feeling?” Helena asked as she stepped fully into the room and walked to Bette’s bedside.
Bette frowned slightly.
“I’m feeling tired actually. The pain’s not so bad right now.”
“Do you want anything? I can call the nurse if you’d like.”
Alice watched them from the couch taking it all in.
“No. No. I—could you watch some t.v. with me?”
“Of course. Just let me make a quick phone call and I’ll be right back,” Helena said with a smile and turned towards the door.
Alice jumped to her feet as well.
“I guess I’ll head out too. I’ll see you tomorrow, Bette,” Alice said with a slight wave.
Bette waved back with her good hand.
“Bye Alice.”
Helena and Alice left Bette’s room and walked together down the hall.
“What was that Alice? I left you alone with her so that you could get on her good side! I come back and she’s yelling at you.”
“I don’t know! I mean one minute she was all calm and then the next—bam! I don’t know what happened. She was asking me about how long you two had been together—nice answer by the way—and I was trying to stall her.”
“Well I guess you should tell everyone what I said. A year or so. I suppose we should have gotten our stories straight before this? This is going to be a disaster,” Helena muttered.
“You said it,” Alice agreed.
“But there’s still time,” hedged Helena.
“Not anymore. We’re in too deep. We’ll just have to follow it through to the end. Where’d you go by the way?”

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
