“Well?”
Bette laughed, “No … no … I’ve never been spontaneous, now will you *please* get down?”
Helena relented, starting her climb down, “All you had to do was ask …”
Bette sighed with relief before spotting advancing uniformed park attendants out of the corner of her eye,
“Er … Helena,”
Helena continued to clamber out of the fountain slowly,
“Hurry up!” Bette urged her, grabbing her hand to help her out, dripping and giggling, “look …!”
Helena looked to the side and saw the officials to the park gaining on them, “Ooops …”
They ran off in the opposite direction, Helena still barefoot as she carried her sandals in her hand, Bette urging her to hurry up, and didn’t stop until they hit the main road and began to blend into everyone else out and about on a Friday afternoon looking in the shops and heading to the café bars,
Helena stopped still, panting,
“Ooops?” Bette repeated to her, “Ooops?”
Helena looked up and grinned, Bette’s eyes alight with drive and adrenaline, “You’re pretty when you’re scared,” she stated, running her fingers gently across Bette’s cheek,
Bette caught her hand, “I wasn’t scared,”
“Please,” Helena scoffed at her protests, mimicking Bette’s high pitched cries that they should get the hell out of there, “Helena, Helena, Come on! Run faster …!”
Bette held Helena’s arm as she stood on one leg putting her shoes back on, “I don’t sound like that …”
“Admit it,” Helena teased seductively, “you enjoyed yourself just a little bit,”
Bette chuckled, “Come on, I’m hungry, I want some food,”

They ate in one of the quiet café’s along the main street in Naples and Bette struggled not to laugh at the look on the waiters faces as Helena dripped into their clean and wholesome establishment, her short denim skirt soaked though.
Then Bette watched her eat; for the first time since she moved into her new apartment and laid eyes on the mysterious brunette who occupied the apartment opposite she felt like she was watching her do something normal, something that anyone else might do.
“You’re staring at me,” Helena noted, deftly beheading her prawn and sucking the contents into her mouth, “I’m not art,”

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
Yes. Very yes. More when you can, cheers + ta
You’re not writing fast enough!!! Please, sofa, please…Me want more too! more more more more more more more more more more more…
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.
This is starting to get real interesting. And I really can’t wait for your next post for it.Great update!
Very interesting and intriguing.
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.
Thanks for posting twice tonight. I like this tale. Helena sees to have a touch of Jennyitis…
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
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…
Yaaay, another chapter up! This story is sooooooo good! MORE PLEASE
