Chapter 8
(Alice) So, Bette and Tina make a great couple
Helena raises her eyebrows and gives a small laugh. She looks to Alice and shakes her head.
(Helena) What are you doing Alice?
(Alice) What?
Helena raises an eyebrow at her.
(Helena) I’m happy to engage in some friendly banter about the past when Tina is present, but whatever you’re planning here isn’t happening
Alice looks at her for a moment.
(Alice) I’m just worried about Bette
Helena smiles and raises her eyebrows.
(Helena) I think Bette is capable of taking care of herself
Helena smiles her thanks to the bartender as the first of their drinks are placed on the bar. She turns back to Alice.
(Helena) What is it you’re hoping to get out of me?
(Alice shrugs) I just want to know her story. To know what Bette’s getting herself into
Helena smiles and shakes her head.
(Helena) Her story is she’s my closest friend of over 15 years and I don’t discuss her sexlife with anyone
(Alice sighs) Come on Helena. If this were your friend tied up with someone completely emotionally unavailable you’d be concerned too
Helena looks over to the table where Tina has just returned. She smiles as she watches Tina take a seat alongside Bette and lean in to her as Bette wraps an arm around her and holds her close. Helena looks back to Alice, who has also been watching the exchange.
(Helena) From where I’m standing it looks like the two of them are enjoying themselves very much. Perhaps we should just let them be?
Alice sighs as she continues looking towards the table. Helena smiles at the bartender as the remainder of the drinks are placed in front of them. She talks to Alice without looking at her.
(Helena) She’s not emotionally unavailable, by the way. So far from it actually. That’s the wrong description of her
Alice looks over at her and frowns.
(Alice) Well what would you call it then?
Helena picks up the drinks from the bar and turns towards the table. She makes eye contact with Alice and smiles and shrugs as she moves past her.
(Helena) Not that
Their night comes to an end and they all go their separate ways. Bette and Tina arrive back at Tina’s house and walk up the driveway together hand in hand. Bette turns to her.
(Bette) I’m sorry about what Alice said earlier tonight
Tina looks over at her and smiles.
(Tina) She said a few things, which one are you referring to?
Bette looks back at her.
(Tina) The girlfriend comment?
Bette cringes.
(Bette) Yes
Tina smiles and shakes her head.
(Tina) It’s fine
(Bette) Really? I thought it might bother you
(Tina smiles) Bette, as I said earlier I genuinely don’t care what anyone else thinks. Nothing that was said tonight bothered me in the slightest
They arrive at the front door and Tina turns to face her, placing her hands on Bette’s hips.
(Tina) If that sentiment were coming from you, that would obviously be different
Bette moves her arms around Tina’s waist and pulls her closer.
(Bette) It’s not coming from me
Tina smiles and nods, reaching up and tucking a curl behind Bette’s ear.
(Tina) Well then, let them read into whatever they like
Bette smiles and nods.
(Bette) OK
Tina moves her hand through Bette’s hair, pulling her closer as they smile into a kiss. They draw back and lean their foreheads together, both smiling.
(Tina) Mmmm, let’s get inside. I’ve been waiting all night to have you to myself, and I want to make the most of it
(Bette smiles) And I believe there’s some sort of congratulations planned?
(Tina smiles) Ah, you haven’t forgotten
(Bette laughs) I don’t think I’ve thought of anything else all night
They smile at each other as Tina opens the door and backs inside, reaching towards Bette and taking hold of her shirt and pulling her in after her.

Also very intrigued re: Helena’s response, “She’s not emotionally unavailable, by the way. So far from it actually. That’s the wrong description of her”. Hmm!

This story is very intriguing… I’m just not sure about these two. It is obvious to everyone that these two are very much into each other… their behavior is very much into each other… but they keep going with this façade that this is just enjoying each other in the moment with no attachments and no commitments and no promises of any future. I do not know how much longer this can continue. Whether they admit it or not, they are truly connected and a sudden unavailability of one or the other would be devastating to both of them. So why not face the truth and admit this each other? This is a game at this point… time to chunk the rules of engagement and just be the people they are.

Reading your stories is more pleasurable/addicting than eating chocolate

It’s obvious they are both playing a game to protect their feelings for each other. Something’s coming up that will make them both admit how they truly feel. I really like this story a lot.
