    Author Notes:

    If you loved someone how far would you go, to get them to love you back? What if they never loved you?

    Settling down in a more comfortable position she grabbed the two boxes that she’d shoved as far back into her closet as they could go. She’d attempted to forget about them, but that hadn’t happened.

    Lifting the lid off the first box she stared down at the assorted drawings she’d stuffed inside. When she’d been a child she’d used drawing as an outlet from her life. She’d captured useless feelings and emotions on paper and had hidden them away so that she wouldn’t have to ever think about them again.

    Slowly she sifted through them.

    Better than memories. Each picture, each scene was like a punch in the gut, bringing forth emotions long dormant. Confusing emotions because she couldn’t quite tell which feeling was supposed to go with which drawing.

    Brittle and yellowed some were quite old and others…were relatively new she realized. A picture she didn’t ever remember drawing stared back at her.

    Her eyes. Her face. Her unhappiness.

    A self-portrait.

    Her lips curled up in a sneer. She looked pathetic. She looked sad. She looked like she’d been beaten down one too many times. Who was this? Had she always looked like this?

    Who was she?

    Her fingers curled around the drawing in anger.

    When had she drawn this?

    Flinging the box behind her in a sudden fit of anger Bette turned her attention to the other smaller box, the drawing still clenched tightly in her hand.

    Flicking the box open she was met with the picture of a smiling Helena. She kept mementos in this box. Few things were precious enough for her to store so the box was almost empty except for a few pictures and other odds and ends.

    Bette didn’t remember the picture or when it was taken or even why. But she could see the unabashed joy on Helena’s face.

    Happiness radiated from her eyes and her smile was pure joy. Her hair was cut short in a stylish bob, which meant it was Helena’s college days. Dressed to kill Helena looked gorgeous. It was Helena in all her glory.

    She felt old just looking at the picture. She felt exhausted and broken staring into Helena’s blue eyes. She couldn’t remember the last time she’d seen Helena look this happy, that open, or that free.

    10. I love the depth of this… and this story in general. As much as I don’t like cliffhangers you’re able to keep me captivated with every word. Thank you for that and please continue soon.

    11. Come on Bette – work this out! Go and see her! Bette is such a pain in the ass sometimes…I hope she makes good use of her second chance. Great update. Great writing.

    14. Fantastic chapter, as usual. I feel so sorry for Helena, Bette seems so confused, i hope she figures it out and just tells Helena. Can’t wait for the next one, thanks!
