“Bette!” Helena, admonished. “It’s not that I don’t adore this. I, just, Darling, Angelica is in the next room and I want to talk, as well.”
“Okay,” Bette said, sitting upright and facing Helena. “Talk.”
Helena cleared her throat and squeezed Bette’s hands, which were wrapped in her palms.
“Darling, I’m very interested…interested in pursuing a relationship with you,” Helena began, her eyes staring, albeit hesitantly, into Bette’s.
Bette was quiet, watching Helena.
“And I couldn’t help but notice, as I said earlier, that you seemed preoccupied and flinched when I came in this morning and embraced you from behind. I startled you.”
Helena gazed into Bette’s eyes.
“Go on,” Bette replied.
“I did startle you, didn’t I?” Helena asked.
“Yes, a bit,” Bette confessed.
“What were you thinking about?” Helena said, her pupils moving rapidly, watching Bette’s.
Bette released her hands from Helena’s grip and ran her fingers through her hair with a sigh.
“I want to know, Bette. Tell me. The truth. What were you thinking about?” Helena asked again. “Was it Tina?” she choked.
Cupping her hand over her eyes, her thumb on the side of one and her index finger on the side of the other, Bette rubbed softly and contemplated.
Finally, Bette removed her hand, placing it on the back of the couch, and looked at Helena.
“I was thinking about you,” she began. “And I was thinking about Tina.”
Helena took a deep breath. “Continue.”
“That song, Helena. Well, a lot of songs. They remind me of Tina. We used to listen to that station quite frequently. They have always played a lot of, hmmm, what would you call it? Standards. Romantic standards.”
Helena nodded. “I know.”
“Yes, well, Tina and I would spend evenings together and dance…together…to those songs. The one that was playing this morning, Nat King Cole, was one of them. And I couldn’t help but wonder what Tina may think when she hears those songs. And then I thought, I don’t care. I want to dance with you to those songs now. I want to hold you and feel your body close to mine and sway the night away. The song this morning,” Bette proceeded, “well, it was ‘You Call It Madness (But I call It Love).”

Laughs. OMG. That cat…that cat! Aaarrrggg. Laughs. OMG. This is so hilarious. (: You’ve written this so well that I can literally close my eyes and picture all the havoc! Laughs. Brilliant, as always, Z! PPS! (;
OMG that was hilarious,,,,I like Harry! Bette is now in a heap of problems not that Tina came making more chaos for her. Also, it don’t help that Helena opened the door most likely seeing her in the bathrobe won’t help either. But hey can’t wait to see how Helena is able to handle this as well as Bette. Great chapter Z!!!
jeepers Zheese you really put eveything in the pot when you stir it up. Your to funny but I’m thinking the next chapter might not be, I say “bring it” Thank you, Md
Can this night get any better? I enjoyed the little talk that Bette and Helena had. But as we know their day is only getting started. Maybe Bette should learn the words to “In The Jungle” because that lioness at the door is wide awake!
So the kitten peed on the kitchen floor. What’s the big deal? It wasn’t that long ago that Bette was peeing in plastic bag! And wasn’t the hand that Bette put over her while she was talking to Alice the same one that she had the used (pee soaked) paper towels in? Bette really needs to straighten out her priorities. And Helena doesn’t need to post any of the kitten’s accidents. The only one Tina has a right to pissed (what is it with everybody today? So pissy.) at is Harry.
I think Bette needs to calm down. The kitten is going to have an accident here or there until it is used to its environment and knows where its box is. Screaming and freaking out doesn’t help and what’s the big deal indeed. I hope they stop Tina at the door and tell her they don’t care what she is pissed about, as she has no right to be pissed about anything Bette and Helena do. She and Bette are over, she left Bette. I wish they would shut the door in her face. What plastic bag are you talking about, funny?
wu-ohhhh, that was funny…dude, B has to chill – but the cat thing was funny…enjoyed the update!!!
Irather clean cat pee than have a monkey around me. Kit might just bar Alice if she bring Harry into the planet. I dont have a cat in my home Allergies to them what would a monkey do. I do love that Bette coverd her eyes with the same hand that cleaned up after the cat. Alice just made Tina mader. so Poor bette will get it from Tina for Harry dirty deed. Love this and its so darn funny. thanks
Wow baby this was great. I so had to laugh with Bette but in the meanwhile I felt sorry for her cause knowing how she is I can already imagine her face with the idea of the kitty peeing all over the place. Good thing she has Hel’s to take care of things :) Oh oh now we’re going to get it, the blond fury is at the house, you better watch out. Loved it babe!
HEY Zheese, Thansk for this wild and wonderful chapter. I got a real sense of the frentic nature as Helena had Fluffy, Angie was crying for the phone and ALice was talking about her monkey. Looks like the shit is about to hit the fan as I bet it is Tina at the door. Bette just needs to be calm and work things through with both Tina and Helena. I can’t wait to read more of your delightful drama. Much gratitude from Your Loyal Fan.
I love it when bette gets so frustrated. It makes me laugh because she can’t calm herself, much like me. And now, Tina is at the door ready to kill someone. I can’t wait to read more Z!
