Chapter 10
She sighs and nods towards Sarah.
(Bette) But it’s hard to keep pretending she doesn’t exist when she’s standing right over there
Helena nods and raises her eyebrows.
(Helena) With your wife
(Bette shrugs) Well yes, that’s how it feels to me
Helena nods and has a sip of wine.
(Helena) Well, I’m fairly certain you want to hear that’s she’s dreadful. A terrible person that perhaps Tina needs saving from?
Bette looks to her.
(Helena) I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news here Bette. But I’m afraid she’s absolutely lovely
Helena shrugs.
(Helena) She’s kind, supportive, understanding. I’ve never seen her be anything other than a wonderful partner. And we all get on well with her
Helena has a sip of wine and Bette takes a breath as she watches Tina and Sarah across the room.
(Bette) So Tina’s happy then?
Helena raises her eyebrows as she watches Tina across the room, and she then looks back to Bette.
(Helena) Now I didn’t say that
Bette looks to Helena and frowns as she takes this in. Helena holds her gaze for a moment, and then smiles and places her hand on Bette’s forearm.
(Helena) Anyway, let’s get this over with shall we?
Shane spots them and waves over to them, getting their attention and pointing in the direction of their table. Bette and Helena both stand from the bar and Bette picks up her drink and finishes it, and they make their way over to the table.
As they approach the table Bette is ushered towards a seat to one end by Alice, and Helena smiles at them as she continues past and greets Tina. Alice sits down next to Bette and then gestures over the table towards Shane.
(Alice) Shane, move one over, you’re down this end of the table with us
(Shane frowns) What?
(Alice) Seriously can you just fucking move? You’re part of the buffer zone I’m creating around Bette
(Bette frowns) Sorry what?
(Alice) Buffer zone
Alice looks back to Shane with eyebrows raised.
(Alice) Shane
Alice nods towards the chair next to Shane, and Shane raises both hands as she moves one seat over, making eye contact with Bette and shaking her head. Shane looks to Alice once she’s again seated.

Wow, what a great chapter. This Bette is very observant. Even though I want them to go further, I hope they stop and Tina has an honest conversation with Sara. Thanks for another chapter.
