    But now that I’m not on drugs, will Bette still want me?  I know it made her feel special to look after me—to know that I trusted her enough to let her take me home.

     

    Even if she is currently with Tina, I’m going to show her why she should be with me.

     

    Reason One: I need her.

     

    Reason Two:  We’ve been through too much.

     

    Reason Three: I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have her.

     

    There’s a knock at my door.  I feel like I’ve been waiting for that knock for the two months that I’ve been here.  I sit up on the bed and look at the bags around me,

     

    “Come in.”

     

    The assistant director of the center peers through the cracked door.

     

    “Hi, Helena.”  She always has a cheery tone to her voice.  That sound alone could make anyone relapse.

     

    “Hi.”

     

    “Your car has arrived.  Are you all ready?”  She steps through the door as I nodded.

     

    “I’ve never been more ready.”

     

    She helped me by taking two bags and I take the other two.

     

    I pass through the corridor, counting every room until the door and I are face to face.  There are twenty-two doors between me and freedom.

     

    A limo is waiting for me.  I pack my stuff in.  The assistant director looked at me and smiled, “Good luck.  I know that you have someone to go home to and that makes all the difference.”

     

    “Thank you.”

     

    I slide into the seat and waited. After three hours, I was boarding my mother’s private plane to New York.

     

    A plane to Bette.

     

    **

     

    When I touched down, my mother was waiting for me.  Her arms were open wide and I fell right into them.  She hugged me tighter than she’s ever hugged me before.

     

    “Oh, Helena.” She says it softly.  I know it means something deeper than two words.  She knows that I was teetering at the edge of death.  I could’ve died that day.  I almost killed the love of my life.

     

    We get into the car and we leave the airport.

    1. Oh jeez, ash…I didn’t know you were going to end it now. ***Wiping away tear*** :,( Seriously…I loved this story! I know the angst in this story…I know it! Thank you for writing! This story…this story! **Tears falling down both cheeks**

    2. Ash, I too didnt know that this was the finale to this wonderful chapter. I know that you had to really get into this one because Helena had a major drug problem and she was lucky to have had Bette’s love so that she could make it for herself and her love. Not many survive a drug hell and take the easy way out and not fight. Bette didnt care what her friends had to say about Helena, cause she LOVED her and needed her and knew that she had to have her in her life and would also and did fight for her Helena. What a perfect story and can’t wait for the other stories to come!!

    3. My Beautiful Ash… while I am saddened to see this amazingly rich and emotionally charged story come to an end… it feels right… life goes on… those moments are still there… the memories are as vibrant as “neon” you are an amazing storyteller… you are an amazing woman… you are an amazing friend… Love and Hugs, JC (PS – come on any chance you will pick up the torch and continue “I Take All The Blame” cause I LOVE THAT ONE SOOOOO MUCH… tee hee so demanding)

    4. Hey Ash a little disappointed to see a great tory end but it’s better to end something in beauty than dragging it along forever. I’m glad to see Bette & elena still found their way to each other and I’m sure they will have a happy life.PS I admire Bette for being able to make love with broken ribs cause I had 5 broken ribs once and I was even scared to breathe LOL

    5. Well how’s that for a happy ending (BRAVO)!!! I’mm sad to see the story end but I defer to the writer of this wonderful story to decide where it should end. Can’t wait to read whatever you write next, great job.
