    Author Notes:

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

    She sighed.

    A second chance…

    What was she going to do with it?

    She hadn’t been a nice person. A loving person. She hadn’t been a person she would have liked to have known. In fact if she’d come across herself she would have run in the opposite direction.

    But how could she change that?

    Fundamentally she was the same person.

    Missing half her memories.

    Emotionally stunted, she thought. Or rather emotionally less damaged since the memories she’d recovered meant very little to her emotionally. She didn’t have the baggage. The hangups that had made the old Bette the bitch that she’d been.

    She didn’t have blinders on anymore. She could clearly see that there had been things holding her back. Things that prevented her from feeling comfortable with making long term commitments.

    That prevented her from taking that last step with Helena. That had her feeling as if the world was falling around her feet. She couldn’t blame it all on her family though she’d been pretty good at doing that.

    Her parents were long dead and the only family that she had was a woman who couldn’t stand the sight of her. A dead nephew and the woman she loved on the other side of the country. Her life was one hell of a mess.

    She had lived her life ruled by fear in all its many different forms.

    It was time she stopped running.

    She just wasn’t quite sure how she was going to do that. Or even if she had the strength to change. All she knew was that she wanted to. Finally after years of denial she was ready to face everything that had held her back all these years.

     ““

    She woke with a sense of panic engulfing her. The room was too dark and her mind was moving too fast. She felt disoriented and sick to her stomach.

    Laying completely still she tried to slow her rapid breathing and told herself to calm down. She closed her eyes and swallowed painfully as memories floated behind her closed eyes.

    She saw them but they didn’t connect like they should have. Things still weren’t in their proper place.

    She needed something to snap her out of this. She turned slightly and grabbed Helena’s phone. She would need to get a charger for it as the battery seemed to be getting low.

    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!
