Alice and Bette sat in silence on the back stairs, facing the woods behind the house. Sometimes, Alice would say too much and other times Alice would say nothing at all. It was those times, when Alice wouldn’t speak, that you knew she was truly there for you. Her presence was enough support. This was one of the times when Alice sat, soundless.
"It’s just like, I want her to walk out here with a beer in her hand and a smile on her face. I keep expecting her to show up and say something silly or witty." Alice whispered.
"I know, me too." They heard the door opening behind them. Shane walked out, her clothes hanging off of her tiny frame. She was holding a pack of cigarettes. She pulled out one and lit it, putting the pack back into her left breast pocket. She took a drag before speaking.
"This fucking sucks." Her deep, raspy voice becoming even more guttural because of her smoking. Shane had a way of simplifying things without taking their value away. Alice and Bette didn’t answer, just watched Shane take drag after drag of her cigarette, "I miss her already."
"We should get back in." Bette said, "I’m sure TIna’s looking for me." The other two women nodded and they all stood up and entered the house. Bette found Tina immediately. She was talking to Harrison, one of Dana’s buddies from the country club she played tennis at.
"Hey, Harrison." Bette leaned over and gave him a kiss on the cheek, "It’s nice to see you. Wish it was under better circumstances."
"Yeah. Tina here tells me you guys are thinking about having a kid." Bette cringed, but forced out a smile. Why did she always feel the need to talk about having a baby? Was it her way of coaxing her into agreeing with this idea?
"Thinking about it, yes, but we are faaaaarrrr away from making that kind of decision."
"Well, good luck in any case."
"Thanks, Harrison." Harrison made his exit and Bette turned to Tina, "What the hell, T?"
"Sorry, it kinda slipped out."
"Look, I have things that I need to concentrate on, like Dana, and I honestly hate talking about having a baby, because I don’t think we’re ready. Okay? We’ll talk about it at a better time."

Well at least Helena let Bette know how she truly feels with her eulogy to Dana. Bette and Helena need to talk.
i really hope belena finds closure, peace, each other and what the heck sex….. then i will truly be happy… i mean so they can be happy again….what’s up w/ tina and having a baby? what the frickin frack? great update! pps!
My you’ve been busy. Busted, too funny. The tragedy of loosing Dana, should be a wake up call. UNless you’ve lost someone quite unexpectedly its hard to comprehend, but there are no guarantees, don’t wait, don’t put things off, cos we don’t know that tomorrow will come. Its admirable of Bette to be with Tina, but its probably not right. I don’t doubt that she loves her, but she’s not in love with her, and trust me Tina knows, they always do. Its not fair to either one of them.
I really enjoying every minute of this story. I love how you intertwine the flashbacks with the story you’re writing. It’s showing us readers the history between the two brunette lovers that we all came to love. I can’t wait to see what happens next. I really hope that Helena and Bette will have a moment real soon..PPS!
My first allegience is to a Tibette ‘ship. That said, bring on the B&H!! Helena can be so hot!! I always think of her as she was in Season 2, showing up at Tina’s community center (or whatever the hell it was) with the camera crew. Stunning!!
the flashbacks are great and this is a totally well written fic…but you’re torturing me…when will b&h talk…not get-it-on, but just talk…this is going to be one hell-uva converation…PPS
Caught in the act: too funny, and a truly memorable way to come out to your big sis! Helena’s double-edged eulogy was poignant, and Shane’s “This fucking sucks” summed up the Dana tragedy very effectively.
I really am liking this story. I just hope that in time B&H can find some peace. Tina needs to back off on the baby talk. Thanks PPS
Ash, you know I adooooore your stories. I even nearly forgive you for making everyone hate Tina.. AND for killing Dana off. I’m glad Bette’s still attracted to her and that she’s loyal because she DOES love Tina, no matter what you write :P Anyway, do continue :) Be nicer.. but continue.. Flashback made me giggle. I’d never allow my sister to see me with a girl but I guess I wouldn’t particularly like her to see me with a guy either.. Hmm.
Like where you are taking this and love the flashbacks but still hope B & H get back together ….
I unusually don’t read Hellbette stuff cause I can’t picture them together.Tina wants a baby with Bette because as with hetero couples its to save the relationship.After 5yrs of sharing a bed with some one and only being with them half heartedly is cruel.Hook Tina up with somebody else.Bring B and H together.
This was an excellent update to this story. You have a knack it seems to take the characters apart to allow your readers a chance to get in their heads. And the flashbacks are just the icing on the cake. And no matter how much Tina wants to have a baby with Bette it will not make her fall in love with her. But I do believe that Bette does love Tina she’s just not the one she’s in love with. She should tell her it’s not fair to her or Tina. Sometimes when it comes to the heart you can’t always play it safe,sometimes you have to reach out and take a chance. Helena did, now it’s Bette’s turn.
