    Author Notes:

    Just as Bette took off, Helena watched after her. She felt herself falling for Bette even as she stood there by the old tree, feeling weak in the knees, and Helena Peabody was never weak. She pushed her shoulders back and rubbed her eyes, taking a couple of quick breaths to head off on a different route. She needed the run more than she thought.

    It took another hour for Helena to burn off the energy she’d felt building inside of her, but even after arriving at her studio apartment, Helena was racked with confusion. She wanted to sleep with Bette – she knew that. It was only that, she told herself.

    She called Bette’s office after she’d showered, unable to think of anything else.

    “Bette Porter speaking.”

    “It’s … not Helena.” When she heard laughter, she continued in a more confident tone. “Okay, it’s me. Look, I just want dinner.”

    “Great,” Bette smiled, looking up at the Chancellor as she held up her finger in a gesture that promised she would only be another moment, and spoke once more into the phone. “You enjoy. Give me a call and let me know how it was.”

    “No, with you,” Helena snapped, controlling her frustration and confusion. She’d never felt so strongly for anyone, and so uncontrolled because of it. She didn’t understand the feeling, but she relaxed a little when she heard Bette’s quiet laughter again. Still, Helena hated to feel vulnerable, she hated to look foolish, and possibly most of all, she hated to lose control – and Bette had all of it. She almost wished she’d never asked for dinner to begin with, but things had been set into place.

    “I … have to speak with someone at the moment. Sorry. Have a wonderful day.” Bette sounded almost detached, as interested and confused as she was from a woman like Helena: a player. However, she had to sound detached because the Chancellor was looking at her with a smile of intrigue. Oh good lord, not her too, Bette thought as she spoke once again into her phone. “Bye.”

    “Okay, bye,” Helena answered, throwing the phone once she’d hung up even knowing she had to better control her anger. It struck one of the brick walls, and cracked as it fell to the ground – comatose. Helena couldn’t have cared less about the act. Money had never been an issue for her. She stood with huffing breaths as she thought there was no way to attract Bette. She had to think, and fast. She had to win Bette’s interest, and cost was no concern. Her eyebrow raised as an idea lighted in her eyes, walking back down the hall and ignoring her broken phone. After all, it could be replaced just like the rest of her possessions.

      • This story is set years before Bette and Helena are married to begin with, so we won’t see Tina enter this situation for many chapters to come. Thank you for your interest.

    3. I am so happy that you are once again posting here. You’re a talented writer and your stories are just the best. I am a Tibetter but I do enjoy a well-written story involving Bette w/Helena or the Senator. PPS. A joy to read.

      • The Senator – now THAT was a confident woman. She was very interesting to me. Are there any stories on this site you would recommend with the Senator as a leading character?

        • If you’re looking for a well written story about Bette w/The Senator, I recommend “Pick-Up Styx” by pancha305. Pancha was a HS teacher (English or History, not sure) who was an excellent writer. Unfortunately, she passed away a few years ago way before her time. Her stories are great. Some folks didn’t appreciate her going against canon, pairing Bette w/someone other than Tina but a well-written story is a well-written story, IMO.

    6. I have enjoyed reading the Bette/Helena stories on this site. Although I love TiBette I don’t mind reading about pairing Bette or Tina with someone else especially if they are well written like this one

      Great chapter!

      • Bette and Helena certainly have a draw, and the couple in “The Professor” were a train wreck, so building up to that has been very interesting to write.

    7. So glad to see you returned with another intriguing story. I am always happy to read some BeLena even when they didn’t work out in your first story due to Helena being really cruel there must have been a time when Helena was able to capture Bette’s heart, for them to get married. So I am looking forward to see your story unfold. Just checked the site for one of my favorite stories, which was about Bette and Barbara Grisham but sadly it’s no longer available. Perhaps you would consider writing a story about the senator and Bette. It would have been so much better to see Bette in a relationship with the senator than Jodie, in my opinion. But anyway thank you so much for sharing so many exceptional stories with us and I am looking forward to read your next chapter.

      • I will consider a story with the Senator and Bette, but I`m not sure when I will have time to write that. I like the idea, though. Thank you for the vote of confidence that I might do the couple justice.

    9. GR,
      If you look at my earlier post on this chapter, you will find my recommendation for a Bette and Senator connection. In fact, I am rereading it now and it still reads well.

      • Thank you for the recommendation. I am quite busy at the moment, but I am on Chapter 5 of Pick-Up Styx, and it does read well. Thank you for the suggestion.

    10. GR,
      I went back and re-read “The Professor.” I’m starting to see now the seeds (roots, weeds) of their disastrous relationship in that story. Prequels must be difficult I’d think, you really must stay true to the “through line” of their characters in the previous tale.
      Thanks for another interesting story to follow!

    11. I had not read ‘The Professor’ so I went back and read it and enjoyed it. I will now read this prequel with interest as to how the characters reached the state of their relationships at the start of the previous story.
