“Why? Why are you still here?”
***
Lara walked out of the bedroom and rejoined everyone outside. They had no doubt heard the argument but no one said anything. Lara sat at the edge of the pool and dangled her feet in the water. By this time Alice had come out of the pool to get food. She filled her plate and went to sit next to Lara. She rubbed Lara’s tension filled back and shoulder with one hand and offered food from the plate in the other. Lara declined the food and stretched her arms behind her back and leaned on her palms. Bette looked to where they were sitting. She appreciated Alice for reaching out to Lara. It would prove to be a turning point in their relationship.
“I don’t know how to deal with this Alice … this anger in her. It’s nothing that I’ve ever seen in her before.”
“Well Lara she’s never had cancer before … I mean who knows how to deal with that?”
“I know … I know it’s just I feel like everything I do or say is wrong and she just … she keeps pushing me away. I mean I’m obviously not helping her.”
“Lara … Dana needs you.”
“She needs you Alice … you’re strong. I just feel lost. I feel totally lost.”
“Dana’s lost too … we all are. We need to find our way back…”

Tina was with Angie so Bette went into the house to check on Dana.
“I feel like I’m floating outside my body. I’m watching myself do these things and I can’t stop myself. I can’t change anything.”
“I know … I felt like that when my dad died, like it wasn’t my life or something.”
“Yeah exactly. Bette I just can’t relax. I can’t sleep. I can’t listen. I love Lara and I can’t stand her. I’m terrified to be alone.”
“You know Dana obviously I’ve never been in your position but I do know that one of the things that really helped me were these meditative relaxation exercises I did with my spiritual adviser. Do you want to try?”
“Yes.”
Bette gets up from the bed where she’s sitting with Dana. She closes the bedroom door, goes to the window and draws the curtains closed bringing the room into semi-darkness and shutting out the outside noises.

Thanks for this chapter, made me feel more optimistic on all fronts.
Off to bed now
The more I read the more I remember. Love it, thanks
Like wkm, the more I read the more i remember. They took a first step to reconcilation. But it will be a hard road.
I am happy with the repost!
A journey of hope and reconcilliation.For DANA its the struggle to stop the lashing out at LARA and recognizing it is the anger she feels because she is sick.ALICE helping LARA understand that DANA doesn’t really mean what she said even though she wants to be the one taking care of her.BETTE in order to know love you have to feel loved and in telling TINA she loves her maybe they can reconsile or at the most become friends.TINA knowing she is still in love with BETTE could be the step that gets her back to where she needs to be.great update pps thanks
A journey of hope ,love and reconcilliation.DANA has love but is lashing out at LARA who is not going anywhere.ALICE wants to be the one taking care of DANA but knows and recognizes that place belongs to LARA. BETTE /TINA realizes there is still love between them,a foundation to build on.ALICE comforts both DANA/LARA .thanks for update pps
A chapter that looks like a treaty
peace for Bette and Tina, at least, had not
no misunderstanding, and I think
Bette will suffer from the fact that Tina has
to talk about Josh, if they want to have a
new beginning, there must be sincerity.
I hope Dana stop treating Lara bad after all
she was always by his side.
The complete constellation.
How glad I am that someone finally remembers Uta Refson! I wish she could be resurrected (maybe literally) for some more TLW adventures.
Rollin’s Les Frisson des Vampires (The Shiver of Vampires, but marketed in the US under several other names) was a 1971 French very low budget, low quality movie that was primarily a vampire story used as an excuse for lots of nudity and a fake lesbian theme. There was an original soundtrack version with English subtitles and an English-dubbed version that would make your ears bleed.
The story itself is sophomoric, except sophomores by now have much better taste. A young married couple arrive in a remote French village to visit cousins who live in a medieval castle, except they are told that both cousins died the day before … and it turns out that everyone, including the cousins, is a vampire and they all want the young bride. This movie was done before any sort of pubic waxing was done in France.
