Before the Fall – Two
“There won’t be any signs, because I am not in love with her. And I don’t sound like I’m in love with her either. I’m just very upset right now.”
“I’ll give you a call after I’ve heard from her. Are you going to see her in the meantime?”
“No. I…really messed up. I think I should give her space.”
“You better make sure you say goodbye to her before you leave. Don’t sneak off without a goodbye, that’ll just make her feel even worse.”
“Please don’t sound so disappointed in me Alice. This is for her own good. She’ll bounce back.”
Alice laughed sadly.
“But will you?”
“Goodbye, Alice.”
“Goodbye, Bette.”
Bette hung up the cell phone and clenched it tightly in her hand. She really felt like throwing it against the wall and watching it shatter. She felt like destroying anything she could get her hands on.
She glanced around the opulent room consideringly.
Why did things have to change?
Why was she so fucking angry? She wondered as her grip tightened even further on her cell phone.
Of course she was flattered that Helena thought she was in love with her. It was nice that some one like Helena would think she was in love with her.
But knowing that Helena thought that way about her was unnerving her to the extent that she wanted to do physical damage to her surroundings. She just could not wrap her mind around it.
Wouldn’t even let herself contemplate it.
She found Helena attractive, and she always had, but Helena was a child. Helena had barely just turned nineteen; she had so much of her life left in front of her! How Helena could think to waste it all on her was unbelievable to Bette.
She just wasn’t worth it and she knew it.
It was about damn time Helena realized that too.
Bette took a deep breath and exhaled slowly before she tossed her cell phone onto the couch and headed for the door.
Once Alice talked to Helena things would go back to the way they’d been.
They just had too.

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.
