Is this love 25&26
“That was what I said darling – really you should listen Bette when I come to you “
Bette entered the formula she needed for the spreadsheet she was working on -happy with the result
she hit save and regarded her friend. Helena – as always – looked immaculate. She would struggle to look anything other than perfect
“Tell me – tell me in simple terms – tell me the facts -do not emboss the story – just tell me”
Helena sat down
“Well I took my very favourite Christian Louboutin to be re-heeled and the shop was broken into overnight “Helena’s expression was that this was indeed a natural disaster. “My shoes have been stolen – there! “
Bette sighed
“You do not wear shoes long enough for them to need to be re-heeled – and where the hell do you get them re-heeled?”
“Well “Helena began as if she was about to let Bette into a state secret “There is this little man who has a tiny store just half a block from my apartment. He is a wonder – he has been cobbling my shoes for years “
“I have known you since college and this is the first time, I have heard this snippet of information about you “
“I take my shoes very seriously “
“I know that – so why were these shoes special and although it’s a pain that they have been stolen – why does this matter?”
Helena looked at Bette in that way that she recognised – there was another part to this story
“Out with it “
“Out with what?” Helena’s best butter-wouldn’t-melt look
“The reason that these shoes are so important – your collection would make Imelda Marcus jealous. Why these shoes rather than the other 200 in your shoe closet?”
Helena blushed a little – Bette regarded her. It was funny that she and Tina both had best friends who other might judge harshly. Helena was a snob and a frightful snob at that – but Bette also knew that she was prone to incredible acts of generosity and kindness. Bette adored her so she was prepared to indulge her with this particular melt down about a pair of shoes.
“Helena – I cannot help you if you do not tell me everything “
Helena sighed “Is it so much to ask that you come shopping with me – I will buy you lunch if that is what it takes “
“Buying lunch doesn’t come into it – I just want to know why these shoes are so special”
“Well they are Christian Louboutin “
“Helena “Bette said warningly
Helena tutted “Oh – okay – I have a problem “
“Right “
“You won’t tell anyone “
“No “
“Or tease me?”
“Like you haven’t teased me at all about Tina “
Helena looked slightly ashamed “It’s all in good fun “
“I know – come on “
Helena glanced around “They are the only high heels that I feel comfortable in and I am going to dinner with some of the other trustees of the Peabody Foundation “
Bette smiled “You have a bunion Peabody! “

That was close! I love Helena’s distraction. Bette should talk to Tina about at least coming out to the Porters. Or maybe both have to face their feelings first and finally admit that they love each other.
As for Emma, with every chapter I like her a little less. Awful how condescending and deprecative she talks to her own daughter.
Thanks for posting another chapter of this wonderful story. Can’t wait for dinner with Helena at Bette’s.
It just gets better and better!
Thanks Ally

Thank you for the chapter!
Maybe Tina for you it’s time to get out from mother wings?
And Emma – i think i dislike her more and more with each chapter
Jeez Emma, she is a terrible woman and mother, how can you treat your daughter like that! Why does she have to put Tina down at every opportunity?!
Loved how Helena came to rescue Bette and Tina!
I hope to read a chapter after the what i think horrible last episode?! Marja did say in a interview she that if people were mad at her now, they would be even more mad after the last episode.????????????
Thank you for the update!
I do see Tina’s point on not tell mommy dearest yet she’s still worried Bette may not have the deep feelings shes having and end up being yet another means to Emma’s abusive tongue.. but also likes knowing she has Bette all to herself right now. But Bette is having those feeling so much so she wants to tell the world and her parent’s.. this chapter was fun from the sexy bar to home scene to Helena spasming out over her feet trouble. Then the quick play with Emma. Very funny thank you.
That was hilarious….I love that Helena and Tina distracted her mom like they did. Then when Bette pops up in Emma presence, wow…. I just howled. Great impromptu acting for all of them. Great writing. Unlike others, I like Emma – a true alpha lesbian who is use to getting her own way. But I do believe she will let Tina off the hook a bit when she and Bette are finally out to their parents. Tina knows her mother pretty well and knows what presses her buttons. Tina pushes them when she gets a chance and knows the response she is going to get. If Tina is truly disturbed by her mother’s behavior, she would have a meeting with her and tell her to back off. I think Emma would…I think Emma is not aware how degrading she has been. Emma means well, she is just ignorant of what she’s doing.
Tina really needs to take a few hours and do some soul searching. How does she really feel about Bette? Then she needs to tell Bette how she feels. I believe Bette is ready for that conversation. It’s been three weeks – they need to at least agree they are girlfriends and want exclusivity with each other. Of course they haven’t had time to think about someone other than each other.
Very nice chapter….
