Bitter Endings, Sweet Beginnings: Part Four
“Him, I like,” Alice declared, grinning big. “So do you have any recommendations for us, man?”
Blinking
dimly and forming a slow but pleased smile, Dave replied, “Sure! What
kind of movies do you guys like?” He crouched down to be at the
children’s eye level and spoke to them with a huge smile. “Comedy?
Action?” Lifting up a hand to cover one eye and form a silly snarl, he
went on, “Pirates?” Jun Ying and Wilson giggled at this and he dropped
his hand then stood up to search through the movies. “Have you seen
Pirates of the Caribbean or Muppet Treasure Island?” He paused in his
search to say solemnly to the children, “Muppets is way scarier.”
Looking
up from reading the back of Goonies and deciding that yes, it surely
must be a good film, Helena said worriedly, “I don’t want them to be
frightened… I’m not sure I like that idea.”
“Mummy,”
said Wilson almost wearily, heading over to his mother and reaching up
to hold her hand and tugging her down until she was at eye level with
him. “We’re six now.”
“Six now!” Jun Ying called out from where she was helping Dave with the movies and listening to him explain one.
“We
know movies aren’t real,” Wilson said solemnly, staring up at his
mother with wide and earnest eyes. “Plus…” He averted his gaze and
looked off to one side.
“Plus what, sweetheart?” asked Helena, stroking his cheek gently. When Wilson focused his gaze on her, she smiled softly at him.
“Plusweknowyou’llprotectus,”
said Wilson, rushing all the words together and hugging Helena fast but
fierce in the love it showed before doing a brisk walk to join his
sister.
She
stayed in that crouched position, stunned by this unexpected sign of
confidence in her parental abilities that came from her own child of
all people. Then she felt a light touch to the back of her head,
causing her to peer up at Alice and think this must be how her children
felt when she did this. This feeling of safety and love and absolute
affection, it staggered her. And Alice surely sensed this because she
gently pulled Helena up to her feet and wrapped an arm around her
waist, squeezing her lightly as she murmured, “I told you those kids
love you.”
“Mummy,”
said Wilson, looking back at her with eyes glowing with definite
excitement. “Dave says they have a Batman cartoon I’ve probably never
seen. Can we get it?”

WOW!….ur talanted. this story is Sexci & swt..o how i luv it!..it’s turning out great but damn you keep making me wait…Hell it’s worth the wait..hopefully expecting more sexual tension…Keep up the great wrk..please Post Soon!..
Dreiser please don’t make us wait so long again for another chapter! Really really good.. Like your style of writing, very similar to Sulks yet a little different.. please update soon..
I love how people think Helena being civil, nice and sweet is surprising when you see how good she was to the Blob. But whatever!
Anyway. You know I think this chapter kicks all kinds of ass, but I totally loved the first scene in the video store with the kids all well-behaved and Alice doing that dance and aw.
Hee. And during the movie marathon,
DAMNATION!
I hit “enter” before I could finish my thought somehow, but you’re used to that from me from our chats.
Anyway. So I loved how cute Helena was during the movie marathon, half-hissing in Alice’s ear and finding her not amusing anymore, only not really, lo. I, too, reject Twinky Winky is gay.
Ah, and the Mormons or Girl Scouts line. DUDE! You KNOW my thing with them! Salty Mormons and Nefarious Cookie Plots! Ah! And that reminds me of this South Park episode I saw recently…anyway. Aw, that part where Helena hoped Winniw wouldn’t embarass her in front of Alice like she did with Tina? Awww. It killed.
And Winnie. You know I want to punch her, but now I want to squash her too, like the cricket I left trapped under a cup when I left my office.
The “The writer was so terribly kind to her it was hard not to think of her romantically. But Helena tried to stop as Alice wasn’t in the right place for such things and she had enough of falling for women who were unavailable to her to attempt it one more time. Even if the woman was someone as special as she found Alice Pieszecki to be.” was so good, seriously. I think it just nailed who Helena is as a person.
And you know, Winnie and her reasons for taking the kids to Disneyland were exactly what I thought they would be when you revealed them. Because she never seemed particularly interested in them on the show. She sucks ass.
And the under-the-bed scene. Ahh, God, that killed. Hee. I knew all the cute bits were coming up, like “you’re in my spot” or Alice trying to be gentlemanly, but when they came, it still killed me. And Helena’s blush when Alice told her why she can’t come out yet.
Hee. Jun Ying the card shark. Ah!
And the Tatu thing. You already know my opinion on that, lol.
Ah. I loved this chapter so much. It just kicked all kinds of ass and was so true to who Helena is.
Hooray for our Helacious dinghy with the super spy and the super cute writer, lol
*Love* it.
Nothing makes my day more then seeing that you have updated your story. It’s even nicer when it’s been less then a week since your last update. It’s kind of like finding a twenty dollar bill in your pocket that you didn’t remember having, just makes you day. GREAT STORY. But everything you write is great. Can I be the President of your Fan Club. LOL Deb
Makes me almost like Helena, Love the interaction she has with her children. Alice does such a wonderful job with them. Under the bed part was so cute. Just to keep the children from hearing the mommies. thanks
You’ve done the impossible. . .I ALMOST like Helena. When will she finally share her feelings with Alice?
Yeah Helena being civil, nice, and sweet! Oh my amazing.
