    Author Notes:

    Insight: The capacity to discern the true nature of a situation …

    “Hey Boss,”

    “Look, I was thinking of taking the afternoon off,” Bette started, expecting to get herself a fight,

    “No problem …” James said hurriedly, eager to seem like a capable assistant in the eyes of his new boss, “everything’s under control here,”

    Bette hesitated, “Really?”

    “Sure …”

    Bette sighed, not really expecting that.

    She also never expected to see Helena, certainly not sitting on her front doorstep in the middle of the afternoon, waiting expectantly as if she’d planned on sitting there all day,

    “Hey,”

    Helena grinned, sporting bright pearly whites and a lot of lip-gloss, she tilted her shades down to look at Bette, “I see you’re still walking then?”

    Bette blushed, her car keys in her hand, “Yeah,”

    “Wanna go to the beach?” Helena asked, shifting aside so Bette could get to her own front door, “you’ll have to drive though,” she added, “I don’t have a car.”

    ~

    They drove out of town on the freeway towards Long Beach, Bette smiling behind the wheel with the top down as Helena sat beside her quietly, floating her fingers in the gentle breeze.

    Bette made the conscious decision then not to question her, since it seemed to go better between them when she didn’t. Deciding instead to just let go and have fun, enjoying the fact that Helena seemed to be doing just that,

    “Come on,” Helena giggled, dragging her out of the car, “I wanna show you my favourite place,”

    She ran along the front of Belmont sands, taking Bette with her as they picked up speed, stopping short of the halfway point to the end of the pier Helena turned and looked inwards, smiling at the men who sat below them on gondolas, working the waterways around Naples,

    “I’m going to write a screenplay about this,” Helena stated, “isn’t it beautiful?”

    Bette simply stared back at her, still bemused, in the background the somewhat industrial presence of Long Beach loomed, yes the beach was pretty but the scenery couldn’t exactly be termed picturesque,

    “There’s this little old Venetian man,” Helena went on, “he and his wife own a house on the canals,” she continued, talking ten to the dozen at a pace Bette found it hard to keep up with, “they moved here from Italy and now they decorate their house every year in a garish array of Christmas lights and Santa’s and reindeer and giant Homer Simpson’s, just like everyone else, don’t you think that’s weird?”

    1. i f**ing love this story, it reminds me a little of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind in the best possible way, and it being one of my favorite movies of all time, this is a good thing…i love how the characters are bridging the strange terrain between them, how bette’s being just very easily moved beyond her control issues, and how helena is being forced to communicate, not forced in a bad way, just nudged along…very very lovely writing, i want mooooooooooooore! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

    4. Things are always interesting when Peggy shows up. I enjoy her but I hope she doesn’t put too much of the kibash on the budding romance. Or whatever it is. See? You’ve still got me wondering.

    7. Ahhh O.K., still no answers to all the questions…just more intrigue and strange behaviour. Helena does have Mommy issues, even in this story it seems, but it still seems like there’s another cause for Helena’s problem besides Peggy. Now, is Helena really attracted to Bette, or is Bette just a life line for her in her current state? I’m hoping Dr. Kennard will see Helena’s dependency on Bette and that will be the catalyst for introducing Bette and Tina. Oh hell, this is your story…I’ll just wait and read your version! Great update Sofa.

    9. Seems slightly like a nerves breakdown. Itss going to get better. Peggy is in town. In my mind they will be good friends. Still waiting for Ms Hottie in heels. thanks

    10. It keeps getting better and more intrigueing. I like the slow build and the character development but I can’t wait for everything to be revealed. I’m going to cosign on the comment from toby4ever…
