You never realized how fucked up that was until you met Dana Fairbanks.
Bette introduced her to you, reluctantly. She probably wanted to keep you to herself. She was impossible whenever you spent too much time with others. She would cry for hours if you told her you’d talked to a really nice guy or girl and had planned a playdate with them.
But Dana… she had you from the first moment.
Dana was everything that you were not and never would be. Dana Fairbanks was pure, sweet, innocent, herself. She was not afraid to be who she was, even if people thought she was stupid. She had the brightest smile and didn’t have any prejudices at all.
Over the years, she grew up and turned into such a beautiful and sexy young girl. You can watch her play tennis for hours on end and not be bored. She’s so humble and kind. She’s so helpful, so open, so incredibly light-hearted.
You want her. You want to be with her. You want her to hold you, comfort you, tell you that you’re not a bad person. You want to kiss her. You want to run off with her. You want her to redeem you. You want to touch her, explore her, bask yourself in her.
You know that Bette is always looking at you, but you only have eyes for Dana.
Bette follows your every move and you know it. She wants you. It kind of gives your self esteem a boost, but it’s not enough to compensate the hurt you feel over not being able to be with Dana. You know you don’t deserve her anyway, but still.
Bette looks at you like she could eat you. She’s complex, intense. She’s not as open anymore as she was back when she was a child. She’s always there. Sometimes it scares you how her eyes burn through you.
You wish Dana would look at you like that.
Sometimes, you shake it up a little, hoping that Dana will notice you. Sometimes, you wear that shirt that leaves a hint of collarbone and cleavage, hoping to work on her hormones. But she only looks at Bette.
It kills you.
You have to keep Bette as your friend, though. Keep your enemies close, you can hear your father say. In a sick way, you both love and hate her.

Hey Genner, I think this is probably my favorite of all your stories. It would be interesting to see a follow up of these three points of view a few years down the road with the tables turned maybe. Tina would now be gaga over Bette but Bette has finally noticed Dana and of course Dana is now infatuated with Tina! I know, I have a twisted thought process, but I would like to see what you could do with that situation. Love your writing!
For the first time since I’ve known of the character of Tina Kennard, I did something I never thought possible, I called her an “evil little bitch.” Thanks for the story.
Wonderful story, thank u :)I was shocked by Tina’s POV story, she is in love with Dane, who would’ve figured it out? but she was really mean to Bette, but in the end true love finds its ways ;D
Great.PPS
What a wonderful story with the POV of all 3. Love it thank you.
Geeez, that is one fucked up triangle of love!! What a crazy read, but so well-written that I couldn’t help but love it. Would love to see a 5-years later update….pleeease… Been missing your stories and happy to see you posting!
