The main change in Helena’s point of view about people started the day she arrived at Los Angeles. None of them had really cared about her money and they had hated and loved her just because of her own personality; though as Alice used to say her personality needed to be soften some times.

Alice had become a great support for Helena though everyone used to believed the opposite. Helena had been at Alice’s side during Dana’s illness and death, it had been some kind of anonymous support being at Alice’s without being noticed. None of the girls had really noticed that everytime they went to visit Dana at the hospital Helena was there with Al, or that when Dana died Helena was the only one that supported Alice’s crazy idea of stealing Dana’s ashes to buried her as she deserved. None of them realised it because Helena didn’t wanted them to do it.

Helena had never tried to show the girls how friendly she was with Alice because she was sure that she was hated till death because of sleeping with Tina. For months she hide herself and her friendship until Alice realized what was happening and made her going out in front of all her friends. What Alice made was simply telling the rest of the gang all the truth about Helena one morning having coffe at the planet. She just simply said “I want you to know that Helena had been a great support for me all the months Dana was ill and that she had become one of my closer and loved friends as all of you”. The reactions were different, Shane simply agreed, Tina smiled,… Kit and Bette… just kept their faces as if they were frozed. Some time later Bette would admit that she was frozed because she couldn’t imagine Alice and Helena being friends and Helena being with all the girls; and Kit was only trying to protect her little sister.

Thinking about everything Helena smiled thinking about the present, about Bette and about her future. She was happy with the idea of dating Bette though she wasn’t sure about if Bette was going to be her perfect soul mate but in that moment the truth was that Bette made her happy, simply happy, and only her children could make it feel so happy,…

Bette was an exquisite woman, she was sexy, clever and they share a lot of things in common,… passion for their children, for art, both were good friends for their friends… All these things in common had been cloudy for a long time, first during the time Helena and Tina slept together and then once Tina decided to give Bette a second chance. Thinking about it seemed ridiculous too much things in common that kept them apart from each other for so long… Helena thanked that they found a way to be political correct, then friends and now… what were they now??

Helena decided to get ready for the dinner; it was early but she was so nervous that she decided to start at that moment to be perfect.
