LOVE AND PRIDE Chapter 44
Bette and Tina were walking around Boston together. They had arrived with Helena who had gone off to the library to work for the day. Bette had shown Tina some of the sights but she really wanted to take her to Boston Common and wander around the wide open spaces while showing her all the sights that were visible around them. It was cold and they were both wrapped up well -both in thick jackets, gloves and scarfs.
“What you did for Helena was very sweet “ Bette said after a few minutes of silence
That morning Tina had come down to breakfast with a black A4 file and she had handed it to Helena without comment. It was only when she opened it did they discover it was Tina’s handwritten notes from Law lectures she had been to – she had photocopied the originals and brought the copies home to study. Helena had been delighted and had been very grateful – Tina had said very modestly that if Helena needed any help they could work together some evening or even Tina could spend the day working in the library with Helena.
“I know that she is really serious about getting stuck into work next term. There are some basic concepts that she needs to learn or she will sink “
“All the same – it was very sweet and I know that Peggy appreciated your gesture “
“Well everyone has been so kind to me – it’s the least I can do “
“Thank you babe “
“Helena is feeling like everyone is against her “
“She is – why don’t we all go to the movies and a meal tonight ?”
“That would be great “
“She really wants the three of us to get on “
“We do – as far as I’m concerned what happened last term is over and forgotten – in the grand scheme of things it doesn’t really matter does it. I don’t hold grudges – well not against Helena anyway. Is Dylan coming down or not ?”
“Not sure – Hel hasn’t mentioned it and I don’t want to push it “

Sorry to hear about your break-up, ally… Hm, you’re already listening to Beatles, Zep and Queen… how about some Elton? Bowie? Hendrix? Stones? The Monkees? When I feel a bit down and need a sing-a-long, I just start going through 70’s/80’s tracks… the cheesier the better. ABC, Culture Club, Madonna, Duran Duran, Adam Ant, Supertramp, ELO (espec. Mr Blue Skies!)… the list is endless. When I’m angry as well as down, then I gotta go for Sabbath or AC/DC or Rage Against the Machine or… hm, I’m blabbing, and I’ve not even said how much I liked the chapter! Anyway, I hope the fracture starts to heal (chocolate *can* help, a little) and I hope the writing-as-therapy results in more good chapters like the ones you’ve posted today. Take care
I thought in an episode of Sex and The City someone was dumped via a Post-It note. That had to be the worst but very funny. Hopefully, your moment will soon feel insignificant, too. I love The Rolling Stones for rocking away.
i know the break up sucks, but i think you would rather know the truth, then have your ex pretend through another holiday, i know i would….but don’t forget there are plenty of us fishes still in the sea!!!!!!!!!!
Great post as always, ally. Hang in there; you’re playlist is a good start though, so just keep plugging away with that!
I’ll have to come back to read later, I’m off to visit dear old Mom now that the roads are passable for the first time in 3 days. Got blown sideways while driving along recklessly at 22 mph Tuesday evening. Damn, I need a good team of sled dogs! Anyway, I say go punk! Iggy Pop and Patti Smith will take your mind off things. On Valentine’s, huh? That sucks. Well, like Crosby, Stills and Nash once advised: love the one you’re with, namely yourself. After all, you know just what to do and exactly when to do it.
LOL amazing post, this story gets better and better – and so funny too :o)) More please…
this post was as great as always, is good that you have been using writting as a therapy i hope that you feel better soon. i can’t wait to see Bette’s face when she will see Tina in a dress
I’m sorry to hear what happen to you. By my standards, that was ABSOLUTLY UGLY to break up with someone on Valentine’s and in the am EKKKK. I love your idea of theapy though—WRITE girl WRITE. I can hardly wait to see Bette drooling over Tina (and visa versa) at the dinner. Yeah, Kit enters the story. Always look to the positive Ally and your writing certainly is that and we all REALLY appreciate you :o)
Loved it, and so much humour in it. Helena is really nice to Tina now. Will it last is the question, I do hope so.
*tut tut* one page *tut tut* sorry about your break up, Look forward to the party Bette & Tina are in for a treat. PPS
I’m wearing branded shorts today as well. I think they’re Madeinch-ina hahaha.So sorry to hear about the breakup. On valentines day too. Sucks!!!I don’t comment enough, but you are honestly the best writer around and I read everything you do. Keep up the amazing work. You have me and a lot of others in stitches :)
deaf leopard my music:pour some sugar on me….what site bette in levis my mouth is water with that picture…post more if its helping..lol
The banter between the three about the “few conditions” was priceless… Was laughing my ass off! And mmmmmm…. can’t wait to have them both all sexy in those dresses (but not for too long I hope) and see their reaction to each other… Helena is a sweetheart! But not as sweet as you, Ally! ;)
I agree with Kword, the witty banter in the restaurant was frigging HILARIOUS. I truly loved it and couln’t stop laughing. Needless to say the whole chapter was absolutely charming. As for a song that could cheer you up… Well… Let’s see… Eric Idle singing “Always Look On the Bright Side Of Life” always does it for me. In fact, you might want to consider re-watching “Life of Brian”. Really, who needs therapy when you got the Monty Python ? LOL ! Once again, thank you for sharing this wonderful story with us.
PLEASE don’t click on my next chap its a repeat post – and it won;t go away ! air very blue chez ally’s place !!!
sorted – amazing what a prayer to the goddess “bette in levis ” does !!!
LMFAO@Helena LALALALALA! xD That Diana chick was a real mega-bitch. Bette is so going to die when she sees Tina all dolled up.
So sweet!!! I’m liking the sound of playing dress up!!! Think that should be fun! Teasing Porter so she’s practically drooling!!! he he heSorry to hear about your break up…..life’s a bitch (or should I say women are!!!) but it does get better with time. Its a cliche but time is a great healer and eventually you’ll proabably be thanking her instead!! I know I did when I was dumped after 6 yrs!!! At first it seemed like the end of the world, now….it was the best thing that happened to me!!! Anyways…..if writing helps you through your pain, you should know by now you have plenty of folk on here who are more than happy to read your stories!!! Take care
Ally, Well I think it’s the best medicine to throw yourself into some writing…We as you loyal readers will do all in our power to keep up….I could read your chapters forever…thank s
“I think it says cotton” OMG funny! 2 posts in one day! I’m sorry that you had to have a fractured heart for it. spreadable chocolate is something we don’t use enough of in the states! thanks for the reminder… i need some Nutella!
LOL! That was such a cute chapter Ally! Can’t wait to see Cinderella and Prince Charming Porter! :))
Thanks for the post. Sorry about your break up. Music is a great soother. Carlos Santana works well if you like guitar.
do u want music to be sad to or music to rock???? personally i like Katie Melua, Gretchen Wilson, Anita Baker, and I could go on!!!! Maybe u should go to YahooMusic where they have 100s of songs to choose from of all genres…take care of yourself and keep writing!!!!!
Ally, Babes you know that we are all here for you. So just let me know if there is anything I can do for you at this time. Hearts do break but they also mend. As for this delightful drama, this was another top notch chapter. There is just a real sense of the love that Bette and Tina share. It is addictive and contagious as everyone another them is onfected with good humor and envy. Love that Helena is really there for her sister by helping Tina. Good to see that Tina’s kind efforts in assisting Helena scholastically are being paid back in the fashion sense. This is bound to be a fabulous festive season and I am desperate to see what it brings. Your talent and gift for marrative and dialogue astound me at every turn. Thank you so much for continuing all your stories. Your Loyal Fan.
Love this update. You go Bette. Love how when it came right down to it, she stood her ground and proclaimed her love for Tina. Wait till Bette see’s her all dressed up. Sorry to hear about the break up. Worst one I ever had was right before a concert with Air Supply. Hello, as if they’re songs weren’t sad and sappy enough, try it when your sitting with someone who told you right before the concert that it was over. But, hey I got over it.
Good chapter. They are all funny and cute, keep them this way. Diana is a bitch. Anyway let see more please, thanks! Now about music, let see if you like, The Eagels, Wham, Celin Dion, Lionel Richie, Braian McKnight, Ricky Martin, Marc Anthony, Enrique Iglesias, Whitney Houston, Madonna, Mariah Carey, Diddy, The PussyCat Dolls, Sean Paul, Ciara, Beyonce, Justin Timberlake, Rihanna. There are alot more but this is for now, well take care my friend and see you later!!!!!!!!
