Bitter Endings, Sweet Beginnings: Part Six
“Those are my thoughts precisely,” said Helena, returning the smile
though she instinctively bristled at the feed the manic depressive
orphans remark. Though she knew full well from her initial
conversations with Veronica and through their interaction during lunch
that was just how the other woman spoke, she couldn’t help becoming
irritated at the language. Even if it was done in harmless jest, Helena
disliked any fun being poked at what she saw as important projects that
truly did help people in need. “If done properly, the studio can bring
great prestige to your career and help advance my works at the
Foundation to an entirely new level.”
“You’re speaking my language,” Veronica said, grinning. Turning around,
she snapped her fingers in the air and called to a passing waiter,
“Bring us your best ***** wine!” The waiter stopped to stare blankly
at Veronica who lifted an eyebrow and produced a hundred dollar bill.
“You get three of these if you hurry.” Watching the waiter quickly
scurry away, she drawled, “I love making men run. That’s real *****
power.”
Choosing to not reply to Veronica’s last remark, Helena smiled out of
courtesy and said, “When would you wish to hold a press conference in
regards to your new position with the studio?”
“***** tomorrow is what I say,” said Veronica strongly, smirking as
she saw the waiter rushing towards them with a wine bottle in hand,
almost tripping over his own feet he was in such a hurry. When he
arrived, she waved off his attempt to show her the wine label and
simply gave him the promised three hundred dollar tip then told him to
be on his way. “I don’t know ***** about wine,” Veronica informed Helena
with a grin, pouring it into first her glass then the British woman’s.
“But I only drink the best.”
“My mother frequently says one should never settle anything less,”
replied Helena, taking a slow drink of the wine. Smiling after the
first taste, she murmured, “It’s quite good, I think.”
“Not bad,” Veronica agreed, leaning back in her seat before puling out
another cigarette and lighting it. “I rather drink a good beer myself
but they don’t have this at poser ***** places like this.” Taking a slow
drag, she studied Helena thoughtfully and said, “Your mother used that
Foundation of yours to fund nothing but art projects, didn’t she?”
“Yes,” said Helena, wearing a guarded expression since she wasn’t sure
where exactly this was headed. “While she was head of the Peabody
Foundation a large amount, almost all of the proceeds in fact, were
dedicated to funding arts and entertainment projects.”

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…;)
