Before the Fall – Two
“I meant food wise.”
“Megan just order me whatever you’re having,” Bette said impatiently.
“Okay…”
Bette turned around only when she was sure Megan was gone.
“You do have a way with the ladies, Porter,” Alice mused.
“Well really what was I going to say to her, huh? I’m coming completely unglued because my friend Helena told me she was in love with me?”
“Well if you had she would have gotten the hint that you weren’t interested. I mean c’mon Bette! You invited Megan to London with no intentions of letting whatever you’re doing with her progress beyond the bedroom. What’s she supposed to think?”
“I was completely upfront with, Megan. I told her what this was. She agreed. This trip doesn’t change anything.”
“Okay, I’m finished thinking, Bette. Here’s how I see it. Mind you I’m barely awake. Waiting for this damn coffee to brew is killing me,” Alice grumbled.
“Go ahead. Enlighten me,” Bette urged.
“When you met Helena she was a kid right?” Alice asked.
“Right.”
“So she was off limits. So you could be just friends with her. Only I don’t think you ever really wanted to be friends with her, Bette.”
“What?” Bette exclaimed. “Then why am I friends with her? Why do we talk all of the time? Why did I come here to England to see her? Why am I upset about this? Alice I just don’t understand any of this!”
“So you admit you came just to see her?”
“Not just her,” Bette backpedaled, appalled that she’d even said that aloud. “I had things to talk about with Peggy too.”
“What kind of things?” Alice demanded.
Bette remained silent.
“Imaginary things, I’m to assume?” Alice asked with a chuckle.
“It doesn’t matter what I’m going to talk to Peggy about. It’s personal.”
“Nonexistent you mean.”
“Alice!”
“Why did you bring Megan with you? You told me she was going to San Diego to meet some of her friends.”
“She was. I wanted some company. Why are we talking about Megan? I just want things with Helena resolved.”
“We’re talking about Megan because you brought her with you on a trip you’ve admitted was to visit Helena. That says something right? Don’t you see Bette?”
Bette slumped onto the couch and leaned her head back closing her eyes.

This has got to be my new favorite Peggy Peabody line!!…….”Don’t make me pull you out of bed, Helena. You know how I detest physical labor. Sit up. Now.”…….Fabulous! Thanks!
my my Ms Porter all of 26 thinks she’s a grown up??? maybe at 52 she will be!!! and is Helena 19 or 20 and what is the legal age in the USA for sex??? is it 16 or 18?…..besides my queries…this is shaping up to be a good story…
Amazing… I GET this story on so many levels… now let’s see if I can learn something from Helena :) Do post soon, really loving this and your writing. Thank you
Somehow I missed chapter one! This is great, and I hope you continue this journey soon.
Love that Peggy. I’m with Seahurst on Peggy quote. Betty just see Helena as the child she first met. Thanks
I still Bette likes Helena but she is not ready for Helena and really Helena is probably not ready for Bette but your story is very intruiging
Rau age of consent in the UK is 16 yrs old. And I meant to post that Helena is 19 yrs old, but she’s known Bette since she was 17 she was legal then too. Thanks for the reviews.
Rau I didn’t answer your question, lol! U.S. consent is 16 yrs old I believe. Thanks for the review everyone!
Oh man! Come on, Bette! Hell, you’re breaking MY heart. I can SO feel what Helena is going through right now. This story just started, but I already know that it is going to be really good. These first couple of chapters just grab your attention and doesn’t let go until you run out of words to read… because the chapter has ended. LOL! I was so disappointed to see the end of this chapter. Take that a compliment, because it is one. Please, post again when you can. I am very anxious to travel on this journey with Bette and Helena. And, I LOVE Peggy. My goodness, that woman has to be the coolest person to have as a friend. I could definitely hang around with Peggy… if only to hear her talk. She is very direct and I love that!
Amazing how some people can blind themselves to their own feelings… and how far they can get to prevent themselves from seeing the truth… Bette sure has feelings… and sure does not WANT to have… a long long way to go…Keep it up…
Come on, Bette! To quote Peggy, “Don’t be such a pussy!” Lol. Great chapter, I’m hanging on my seat here.
Im really like this story….Please continue it’s like reading a book. PPS
*rolling my eyes at Bette* Git a grip woman!! So afraid…to love and be loved! I am thoroughly enjoying this and am anxiously awaiting the next installment of both stories.
wonderful, wonderful story…I love the play between these two…pls continue and soon
Oh! You’re so good in your writing! Why didn’t I notice your fics earlier! Way to go! :) Please continue!
