Just The Girl 2.0 – Chapter Seven (based loosely on HYD: Returns)
“I am.” Bette admitted grimly. “They’re actually more vivid then before.. sometimes I could even taste blood.. and feel goosebumps on my skin..” She shared, her gaze far away. The last thing she wanted to do was attend therapy again, but she knew she had to. Aside from James, no one knew that she needed it – not Tina, not her friends, and especially not her father. Melvin didn’t even know that she was there when that sales executive jumped to his death – the knowledge of her experience might trigger another heart attack, something which she and James wanted to avoid at all costs. And to her, therapy was a sign of weakness. A proclamation that you needed help – that there was something wrong with you. And she didn’t want that, she didn’t want that at all. But her nightmares occurred so frequently lately – so much so that Tina was becoming increasingly worried with each passing day. She told her it was just stress – but she could sense a hint of doubt within the blonde. It pained her that she was lying to Tina – and she didn’t want that anymore. She wanted to be cured, so that she didn’t have any more reasons to lie and hide. So that’s why she was here now – hoping the woman in front of her would give her a solution. “I can’t have my nightmares weighing me down, I need to get over them.. to move on..”
“When did it start happening again?”
Bette’s brown eyes darted to her lap. “A few months back..” She swallowed hard. “When uh.. when my dad told me that one of our companies was having a tough time.. we might let go of a lot of employees or close it down completely if we can’t find a way to save it..”
Candace nodded slowly, putting the pieces together inside her mind. It was fairly obvious what had triggered all those nightmares. “Are you afraid that the past would repeat itself?” She inquired carefully. She alluded to the jumper – the man who had haunted her patient’s unconscious mind for years.
The brunette fidgeted uncomfortably on her seat. “Yes, I am.” She whispered after a tense minute. “I can’t even wrap my mind around the thought of what might happen this time around. The damage will be on a much larger scale..” She said in the tiniest of tones that her therapist had to strain her ears to hear what she was saying.

stay away from the candles, ha – love it!! it will be interesting to see how bette reacts to kate cos even though she knows tina would never go for anyone else our bette is always impulsive, potentially jealous and definately capable of violence…bring.the.meeting.on!!! ooh and i agree with carolyn1m the “…” – always make me smirk!! pps alch!
Awesome …gla dthat U are back. I am gla dthat bette went to a therapy session…but she needs to open up to Tina. I also agree w/ Alice Kate is trouble. I love the teasing flirting goin on between Tina & Bette. So cute. Love it…
So like how snobby Alice is, and so protective. Cant wait to read how Bette will react to the filmaker wannabe. Love it
Bette needs to come clean about her nightmares and the meetings with Candace before Tina finds out on her own! PPS
Genius, making Candy the shrink. Way to use the characters. I’m also glad that she is married, not that it has stopped anyone before. Hopefully she is happily married. Thanks for the post, I know finals are coming up, and you made time for this. Are you taking any summer classes?
I have a feeling Bette is not gonna like Kate one bit! and while I’m glad she talked to Candance, I hope she tells Tina one of these days. PPS:)
Second post, I know, I’m working on getting a life. I was reading JTG I and came across the incest part, and then thought about IC insulting our intelligence with TK’s interrogation scene. Just wanted to mention that, tah for now. LOL
all caught up again… what a story… love this… so glad candice is not into bette… but this kate… she better watch her ass… can’t wait for the next chapter… PPS
That was great and glad cadace is therapy and nothing more, and glad she help Bette with the problem. And about kate, she better run before Bette see her or Bette gonna kick her ass. Please post more, thanks!
Actually, this was an awesome chapter. I was able to see a young, bright, beautiful woman come to terms with her former behavior. Bette is growing up and becoming a better person. I am with Alice, I am not too found of Kate and you are making me nervous. Who is this new person that Bette is going to meet?
I was runnin’ way behind on this story and now I’m all caught up. I love this story but I see the drama on the horizon! Be careful…I have a fragile Tibette heart. LOL
I miss NYC, with the people pushing and shoving. NOT!!!!!! I’m happy that Bette had a good therapy session. But, I am trying to accept Candace as a GOOD person. Still trying to picture it. Still trying…… Kate is going to cause trouble for Tina. I hope Alice keeps a close eye on Kate, just in case Tina gets into trouble. Great post. PPS
Okay..I know it sounds crazy but your ‘…’ really make me LOL and smile for the rest of the day..so BIG special thanks friend! Good chapter..it explained some things,and I have to agree with Alice re: Kate! Oh Bette is sooo gonna hate her!! Can not wait!!I love the drama you put tin cause unlike someone with the intials IC tthe drama doesn’t last a life time:)so many many thanks! you are awesome and… I LOVE this story!
i really enjoy this story, and i luv your version of bette and your wicked humor, can’t wait to see what happens next!!
Why do I have a bad feeling that Tina is going to catch Bette with Candace in the future.As for Kate, sure Bette will hate her… but she might play with her too. Kate could be a fun pet….That sounded better in my head.
I can’t wait to see what Bette does to Kate, it ain’t gonna be nice!!! That has messy written all over it.
Ok I am taking back what I said about Candace, she is good here so that is fine lol. but this kate??? she does not want to live for long. Alch agin great chapter can’t stop laughing about what happened after ette “meeting”. Love the love these two are sharing. I ope Bett will hare her problem with Tina soon becuse I sure her upport will be great and help to Bette cure. PPVS
I’m glad Bette’s getting therapy, and I hope she sticks with it, it’s clearly helping some. Kate = big trouble. I wonder if Bette will see right through the girl straight away, or will she be as oblivious as Tina is? …Nah. If her bff Sam has to maintain distance from Tina at all times outside of Bette’s supervision, I think Bette will hire a squadron of ninjas to keep Kate at bay. Great chapter, Alchemy, thanks!
I loved that phone conversation between Bette and Tina. VERY FUNNY. Okay I’m catching up. I still have many more chapters to read :)
