Bitter Endings, Sweet Beginnings: Part Six
If the other customers in Trader Joe’s thought it was strange to see
two women, one standing close behind the other at only a breath apart
and steering a cart together it didn’t show. Since they weren’t getting
any strange looks that left Helena and Alice content to simply stay in
that position. Helena walking behind Alice, lightly pressing her front
into the blonde’s back and their hands resting side by side on the grip
of the grocery cart.
“I like pasta,” said Alice helpfully, nodding at the shelves upon
shelves of it that stood in front of them. Peering up at Helena with
wide eyes, she grinned. “Pasta isn’t nuclear war food, is it?”
“No, it certainly isn’t,” Helena said with a fond chuckle. She titled
her head to look at Alice and in the process breathed in the lingering
scent of her chocolate shampoo, making her feel just a little bit dizzy
and warm inside. “I would prefer to make that by hand for you if I
could. You don’t happen have a rolling machine for homemade pasta back
at your flat, do you?” Instead of replying, Alice stared blankly up at
Helena for several long moments until the British woman chuckled again
and shook her head in amusement. “Of course you don’t. Shall we buy one
here then? I rather think you’d enjoy the culinary experience of eating
fresh pasta.”
“That’s too much work,” said Alice worriedly, frowning slightly and
looking back at Helena. “I don’t want you all slaving away to cook me a
stupid meal, Helena. It’s no big deal, lets just get the ready made
pasta that comes right out of the box. It’s faster.”
“And what am I doing which requires me to be finished in such a hurry?”
asked Helena playfully, pushing the cart away from the ready made pasta
and gather the ingredients to make it from scratch. Ducking her head
down and putting her face cheek to cheek with Alice, she murmured, “I
rather like the idea of cooking for you, darling. It does seem to me
that you haven’t had a decent nor healthy meal in quite some time.”
“Fruit pies are healthy!” Alice squeaked in protest, bringing up an
argument from earlier that day. “They have both fruit and… more
fruit. That’s totally healthy.” When Helena chuckled in amusement,
Alice pouted and bumped her ***** back into the other woman. “You’re
mean.”

Great job on the portrayal of Veronica..I could soo see and hear her…it was kinda eerie..lol, but none the less great. You and sulkygeek have some kind of helacious conspiracy…you write them soo well and it just makes me like them a little more every time. Like how you put Dana into play, checking up on Alice and it’s obvious she still loves her. Ohh…i’m soo torn…the danish or helacious in this story is soo hard to choose
This was my favourite chapter of this story so far – perhaps because we got close to Helacious. But it might also have been that I can’t think of much better than going to an Augusten Burroughs reading at Book Soup with Gabby!
Wow i love this chapter, and the story overall so far, hope you post soon!!!
Dreiser – choppin broccoli!! I’m telling you I sat in history class my junior yr of high school the monday morning after that episode of sat night live singing it with my friends!!! God im old.
Veronica was so dead on, i could actually actually cameron manheims voice.
alice and helena? unbelievable cuteness. “Thank you for being what everyone else is not.” I actaully swooned!!!
great update – loved it. it was so good, i couldnt come up with a philosophical reference good enough!
OMG..’Im Luvin it’ I JUS..I LUV YOU 4 WRITING THIS STRY..the way u write – 2 cute..I like that you wrote Dana out 2 b a stocker as Alice had once been an obsessive stocker of Dana&Lara fiasco..GREAT chapter..Alice&Helena’z relationship seemz 2 be progressing niceli – closer&closer 2gether..’Young Luv’..I always look forward 2 reading your wrk..thnx 4 writing, dun stop..PLEASE mst Post so0N..
*melts* Full credit to your writing abilities!!!! I love the cuteness and dorkiness of Alice and Helena. It’s beautiful
Dana is by no means a stalker in this story. She’s simply still in love with Alice and wants to make sure she’s happy.
I have to say that the danish fan in me it’s hurt when I read the Dana’s part but you made unbelievable loving the helacious part too, so I can’t stop reading your work. Thanks. oh and I love Veronica too :P
I like Helene in this, Alice bring out the true person. she and Helene are very dorlie and very loveablem also. Wish she could show this side to others. thanks for a remarlablr chspter.
Oh dreiser, thank you for this latest chapter. The choppin’ broccoli song in the supermarket had me laughing my ass off. I love how close they continue to get and just hate knowing that it will be at least another two weeks before you pick up where you left off with your evilly planned ‘to be continued’. Your such a tease!
Though i am not a big shane or carmen fan, they were both very cute as you said they would be (i think i can handle things like that in small doses). But the best bit about that whole scene was Gabby fucking Deveaux! I can’t express how much i love Gabby. She’s a complete bitch, she’s got a wicked/sarcastic sense of humor, she’s fiercly intelligent, she uses words to cut people down in just nano-seconds… and she does it all with her ‘whatev’ blase attitude. Call me sick, but there’s just something about all that that makes her so damn hot. And its just so adorable that little ol’jenny gets her all embarrassed with her smiling pixie ways. I do hope that you intend to have more Gabby/Jenny flirting going on.
I like dana more in your story than in sulky’s… which is not to say that i think one of you is a better writer than the other, i enjoy you equally ;). But as i was saying, i do like dana better in this because she isn’t all stalkerish and super clingy… and she acknowleges helena being good for alice, and even sees that she is not what one would automatically assume she is.
Those are my comments for now, love your work.
woot that was really good… Hope you’ll come around and write some more of that…;)
