Tina nods quickly agrees and backs up into the hall. Kit just shakes her head thinking that these two will be the death of her yet. Once she clears the bathroom door, Tina moves to grab Bette’s free hand hoping the contact will keep Bette compliant. That was the way it ended up working out, Kit leading the way dragging Bette. Bette sandwiched in the middle between Tina and Kit and Tina following up a half step behind with Bette’s free arm wrapped around her shoulders.
It’s in this fashion that they carry Bette into her bedroom. So focused on the task at hand is Tina that she doesn’t realize the new atmosphere in the bedroom. She hasn’t laid a foot into their bedroom for quite some time. The last being when she cleared out the last of her clothing. Taking a quick look around she astonished by the new décor. It’s a continuation of the theme throughout the entire house, naked. Bette has again removed all ornaments from the walls. Along with that much of the furniture is also gone. Just a bed and one nightstand remain, not the wonderful bed shared by the two of them but a new bed. Well new to Tina because this bed wasn’t anything of beauty.
Reaching the bed Kit maneuvered the trio so the backs of their legs are up to the bed. This way all they had to do was sit down together. Bette for her part seems pacified at Tina’s presence. Kit was grateful for the event free trip. She credits Tina who all the way from the bathroom kept a running dialog aimed at Bette. Tina’s coos and soft spoken words to Kit sound similar to a mother comforting her child. She can only shake her head. After their workout, all three are winded by the time they plop safely onto the bed.
Bette slumps against Tina she has her eyes closed and is breathing easily. Kit turns and sees this but says nothing. Being the first to recover enough to extract herself from Bette’s arm she gets up and whispers, “Look Tina let’s get her up all the way on the bed I think she needs more sleep.”
Tina nodded she could feel Bette’s body getting heavy, she was going back to sleep. Tina gets herself up and gently guides Bette’s head down on her pillow. Looking down at her face, Tina looks for a moment then slowly straightens Bette’s hair before she bends over and kisses Bette on the lips. Just a soft reminder of more to come. As she straightens up, “Sleep well Bette. I’ll be here when you wake again.”
*****
Helena yanks the sliding glass door open letting the ocean breeze blast her face. This night has been one frustration after another. Nothing seems to have gone right from the get go today. When she arrived home the house was dark and quiet. This didn’t please Helena one bit. She wanted to know where the hell is Tina. This little game of cat and mouse was becoming tiresome fast. Obviously the little joy ride to The Planet only let Helena know she wasn’t with her friends, repeated calls to her cell have gone unanswered. Helena was running out of places to look for Tina. She already knew Tina couldn’t be at her apartment, that place was such a dump there was no way she would be over there. Walking out onto the deck, the view before Helena was spectacular. The ocean waves pulsed up to shore leaving white foam caps that danced in the little light available. The peace and solitude of the scene did little to sooth her angry soul. Nobody abuses Helena Peabody, Nobody. Tina will have a lot to answer for when she shows up tomorrow because Helena has no doubt she will show up.

oh j this is so good and it feels so real. never been like that and know i never want to. yes plumbing is fixed after 5days of 6 having a plumber over for various break downs, wooo hooo. now its organizing. thx
Okay! This is great news, Tina can still reach Bette. I can see how Bette and Kit would both serve as a reminder of Melvin’s disappointment toward each other. It’s sad, in this case, because we know that though Kit was obviously disappointed, she was the one person who could sympathize the most with Bette. Thanks, Jwet. PPS!
Still so potent. Love this story. I’m with jikes, it’s great to see Tina can still reach Bette at least on some level. Can’t wait for more. Thank you.
Tina is exactly where she should be, with Bette. Helena can go swim to Hawaii without help. There is still a connection between Bette and Tina and if any one can bring back the once vibrant Bette it is Tina.
Just wonderful, poor Bette at least she has Tina again who I am sure will wonders for B. love this story PPPS
Happy to see Tina can still reach out to Bette. Kit and Bette are another problem. I so wish Helena would just take a slow trip to Hell!!!! Thank you
It’s so sad to think of the emotional abuse Melvin put Bette through as a child. It’s really heartbreaking.I’m also really glad that Tina seems to have a calming effect on Bette. It’s not much but it’s a start.
I agree with Sammer, and once again you did a wonderful job of describing the physical scene with such clarity. I found myself continuously swallowing as I read about Bette. Thanks J!!
Poor Bette, hitting bottom is a sad state of affairs, you’re painting quite a picture. Looking forward to more.
What an amazing update and was so good to see that Tina could still reach out to Bette. Love this story. Thank you! Definitely a start to more :)
so heartbreaking…and i really liked how tina’s voice has such a calming effect on Bette…
You have Bette in such a bad situation that it will take a lot to get her out and among the living. You have the skills to do it so I’m counting on you to bring her through. PPVVS.
That was great and glad Bette listen to Tina and hope she will let Tina help her get better. Please post more, thanks!
wow, Helena seems likely to do Tina some damage on the morrow. Trusting that T won’t go near her. Great stuff, a little more hope there too.
just catching up with this story, I really do wonder how I get anything done?? this is heartbreaking seeing Bette so broken….I am hoping that Tina is up for the challenge here because clearly Bette needs her and in fact Tina is the only one that can reach her.
Hi JWETI’m really enjoying this story – LinBooks wrote a great start & i’m so glad you have picked it up. but its such a page turner i’ve just read it all in one go! i always like storys wher T is strong for B – because all that control& drive always hid her vulnerabilities ( & the harder the fall) I fear for T though; Helena’s retribution when she works out where T has been will be cruel – though i think her first act will be to try to show that she owns Tina & can take what she wants of Tina. & who is going to pick T up after that? please kep writing and let B recover herself through T’s support.
Powerful and heartbreaking, Jwet. I’m hoping you’ve taken Bette about as far down as she’s going. Made me smile though that Tina’s soothing voice could still reach her. Love your writing!
