Reconciliation Part 32
The day Helena was to come was filled with anxiety and trepidation. She barely slept the night before, anxiously tossing and turning all night. She cleaned, straightened and redecorated her place over and over again. She had a two bedroom place but her equipment took over much of the second bedroom. She did not want to assume that Helena would sleep with her and prepared the futon in the second bedroom for her to sleep in. She dreaded the visit, and wondered if Helena would be turned off by her Ikea furnished townhouse. This was Helena’s first time spending time in her world to any significant extent and she wanted to make a good impression. She bought fresh cut flowers to accentuate the décor. An entire weekend with Helena was something she had never had. She looked online in the entertainment section to see what plays or exhibits was in town for them to see.
She met Helena at the airport and as usual she found the sight of Helena took her breath away. She was relieved to see Helena smiled when she saw her. At least I am not getting a slap in the face, she semi-jokingly said to herself. They hugged and kissed both cheeks then made their way to Dylan’s hybrid Prius, built with the touring sporty package. Helena smiled at the car and said, “I can definitely see you in this.”
“Yeah, I love it. I don’t drive too much so I can go for a month sometimes more, before I have to fill-up.”
They made small talk as they drove through midtown Atlanta, then the Druid Hills community with all its mansions, then out towards Dylan’s home in the equally hybrid, community of Clarkston, where she was now calling home. They stopped at the Farmer’s Market to pick up some fresh groceries. There Helena was stunned to see the wide variety of food and people in one location. Dylan decided to make them some fish for dinner and to Helena’s surprise at the farmer’s market you were able to even select your fish still alive, and have it cleaned for you while you waited. She smiled as she observed how anal Dylan was about selecting the exact fish and explaining in detail how she wanted it cleaned and cut. This was a side of Dylan that was entirely new to her and somewhat enchanting. While they were waiting for the fish, Dylan took Helena to select the sides and wine that would accompany the fish. She noticed that Dylan was quite particular in each selection she made. She was quite the perfectionist in many ways. As she watched Dylan make her choices, she realized she knew very little about her. Aside from the strong attraction they had to each other, they really didn’t know much about each other on a day to day basis. Dylan paid for the groceries and refused to accept anything from Helena. To no surprise, she packed the groceries in canvas bags she had with her. Helena smiled at her as they went through the checkout line and commented. “This is something we have never done.”

and you leave it there Squirl???I’m hoping they can see each othe rin a new kind of light…how they have grown and their attitudes to life, love and other things of importance have changed in retrospect. I’m loving the fact Helena is getting to see Dylan and how she lives and not falling back into bed with her otherwise she will just be taking 2steps back again.She needs to identify this pain and work through this mass destruction that endevoured her to change pursuit of women.But i dont know if Helena is quite ready to put in every cent into this communication barrier they have between one another, herself and Dylan have alot of lost time to make up for and i judt dont think one weekend will cut it in my opinion, how can they deal with the distance thing even if things do eventually get better for them both and Dylans work.God theres so many questions will Helena call Raquel and decided it is completely over with Dylan and she is now free and so is her heart and soul???Gosh Squirl please tell me that Helena can rewrite the ending for herself and Dylan.Loved the update will be patiently waiting for more but dont leave me hanging for too long ok!

Gosh, I haven’t had much to say in these last two chapters…I’m just enjoying experiencing them! You’ve given Dylan a family…Now she is feeling a bit more “solid” to me; however, this truly can go either way…I’m not sure where you are gonna take them…take us…but I’m loving the flow! PPS
Squirl did those holidays throw you off coures? Better a day late, but I like predictable, well most times. Now ringing in my head is a time when Helena told Tina she didn’t have to do anything to deserve, I think it was a foot rub. She was all about not having to deserve things to get them. I like the direction your headed in now,I’m thinking that Helena is just going to make her own way in the world for a bit till she figures out just what she wants out of love or what love is to her or if she really wants to be in a committed relationship at all. Please carrie on my twisted sister. Monday, Tuesday they are all good days to post. Thank you, Md
I would love to get into you head,to see how this ends. You said you had written t ending. So you know. I’ve always like Dylan,so my chose would be her. I would like what would be best for both of them.If Helena can find someone to love that will make her happy and its not Dylan them so be it. waiting for another post. thanks.
I’m happy that Helena and Dylan will finally get to talk….if anything I hope these two can come out of this at least as friends. I never could warm up to Raquel she seemed so full of herself in the beginning and I never felt that intensity with Helena/Raquel. They seemed more like FWB then lovers. That one nite Helena/Dylan had together it was as if they were walking on air. IDK maybe I’m just partial to Dylan because I was familiar with her character before reading this story. I’m also happy that Helena admitted that Dylan wasn’t the reason for her downfall. Peggy cut Helena off because she was spending out of control long before the Dylan fiasco. I’ve always liked your stories because they’re unpredictable, emit emotions and thought not to mention entertaining.
Oh…I just love the new and improved Dylan. Damn, I was in love with the old one – now I’m just freakin’ head-over-heels for this one. I’m depressed though. All this talk about the past is depressing to me. Can’t we just pick up the hot connection and move forward ladies? Woo-hoo! I know I am ever the romantic. Hey Squirl do you happen to have a Chelsea in your office that makes a habit of over-stepping her authority – I was LOL at that one!
OK, so they had dinner and a talk in which they recognized that each had grown and changed. There can be no forgetting, that is what makes forgiveness a great gift. So they have just started the weekend. They can now get to know each other.
Best chapter yet. I know they keep saying that they never knew each other so how did they know they loved eachother, but I feel that when the chemistry and attraction is that strong, you don’t have to know the other person well. There is something intangible that draws you to another person–it’s not about how well you know that person’s history or life, it’s about how you know them when you are with them–everything else fades away.
