Helena nodded. The experience of seeing someone she cared for hurt because of her actions was a rude awakening. How would she live with herself if Tina were truly hurt? She had to gain control of her spiraling life. “I’ll do what you ask Mum. I will. I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.” With Ruth’s help Helena went upstairs to pack.
Back in Peggy’s office, Bette held Tina’s hand as the doctor examined her. She did not seem to have a concussion. It was a deep laceration to her forehead that he stitched up. Tina seemed to have grazed her head on the corner of Peggy’s desk. Peggy stood by the couch watching the doctor bandage Tina’s head. “You’re very lucky Tina. If you had hit the corner with your temple…Well, it’s a good thing you didn’t.” Bette and Tina looked at one another. Peggy was glad that Bette was home. The doctor finished and gave them some instructions. “Tina, I would feel better if you went to the hospital for some more tests and observation but…”
“No hospital Doc I’m fine really. It just stings.”
“Ok but I don’t want you staying alone tonight you need to be observed for the signs we spoke about before. Any of those and you go to the hospital immediately. You got me?”
“Yes, sir.”
Peggy got closer. “Are you sure Jack because I have no problem making her go to the hospital if that’s what’s required. And you say she can’t be alone tonight. You’re mother is in North Carolina visiting her sister and you can’t stay in your apartment alone tonight all the way out in West Hollywood.”
“Well, maybe one of the girls will stay with me. I can call Shane or…oh, no they went to Carmen’s parents’ this week.” Tina held her bandage as she thought about whom to call.
Bette straightened up in her seat. “You can stay here tonight. I’ll watch her.” She looked over at Peggy not noticing the flush of Tina’s cheeks. The doctor noticed and immediately stuck a thermometer in Tina’s mouth.
Peggy smiled. “That’s a wonderful idea. Bette.” She motioned for the brunette to step out into the hallway. Bette stood and patted Tina’s knee before she left the room. Tina wondered if her temperature reading on the thermometer had spiked.
“Bette,” Peggy began. “I’m sorry about before. I didn’t dismiss you; it’s just that you seem to be a catalyst for Helena’s wrath lately. We needed to say some things to her and I needed to have her attention. I want to apologize to you if you felt slighted.”
Bette looked down at her shoes, embarrassed at her own reaction to Peggy’s request in her office. She should have known that the woman that had been just like a mother to her all these years had a good reason to do what she did. “I’m sorry about this Pegs. I feel like if I had stayed away none of this would have happened. I’ve never wanted to cause you any heartache or anyone for that matter.”
“Nonsense, Elizabeth. This is not your doing. You know we are all feeling guilty about Helena’s behavior but she is the only one responsible for what has happened. We can give her our love and our compassion but at the end of the day, Helena is the only one responsible for Helena. I’m going to go with her and get her settled. Can you hold down the fort for me?”
“Of course, no problem.” Peggy took Bette’s arm and brought her over to the door.
“Thank you for offering to take care of Tina,” she said with a knowing smile.
Bette looked at her with her eyebrow raised. “You’re welcome, but what’s that smile for?”
“Oh, nothing. I’m very fond of Tina. I always thought one of my girls would make her a part of this family on a more permanent basis some day. By the way, I never pictured her with Helena.” With that final comment she kissed Bette on the cheek and went in to fill in Dr. Tracy about Helena’s situation. Bette stood there not believing what she had just heard. Nonetheless it made her smile.

Wow!! loads happened on the chapy lol. I love seeing Peggy, Bette and Helena as a family. You always have in a family somebody like Helena lol. But I know that with the support of her mother and her sister, Helena will become a better person. I considere peggy as Bette mother so now that Peggy is going with Helena, Bette is the one to take care of business. after all she is her mother daughter.Bette you just got your mother blessing about Tina so make your lovely move now pmsl. Love the story and really enjoying it. Another chapy like yesterday will be appreciated lol(I know I am cocky)PPVS
OMG! I was riveted to every page. Can’t wait for more.
Hey JB, That was awesome.It was good to have Tina go to Peggy to explain everything that was goning on especially as it concern her daugther, Helena.You also showed what a shrewd bird Peggy is. She dealt with Helena perfectly. As well as keeping Bette out of it initially and then apologizing later for apparently dismissing her. Then her parting comment shown her instinct for love and attraction.I think Peggy has accepted Tina into her family and can see the visile attraction between Bette and Tina. Now is the time to get them together and reap the benefits of having people you trust in a loving and long term relationship.What a impact Helena made when she hit rock bottom. This shocked her and prompted her to admit that she needed help. Now she is ready to accept it.Bette rush into the room was priceless as was her concern for Tina and hatred towards Helena. If looks could kill I’m sure H would be six feet under by now.More please as I want to read want happens next.Many thanks from Your Loyal Fan.
You have got to love Peggy. She stood up to Helena but in a loving manner and she also let Bette know that she knows how Bette and Tina feel about each other.
waiting and waiting and waiting for your next post
Wow, I love Peggy. She’s a very take charge person with a good heart. I’m really glad Helena is going to get the help she needs and that Tina has made it clear to her that their relationship as a couple is over. Hopefully they can still remain friends because Tina is like part of the family and hopefully….she’s going to be with Bette :)

Wow, what a chapter. Your AN made me a bit afraid for Tina not knowing what that meant. I’m glad Helena made an ass of herself in front of her mother so that she could see just how far she had fallen from decency when she drinks. And Yea!!!!!!! Bette’s going to take care of Tina. Just as it should be. Fantastic chapter. Thanks for posting.
This is so good and glad Tina is ok but let Bette take care of her to make sure she is really ok lol!
