“What are we doing?” Helena asked,
Che’s incessant chatter punctuated the silence between them as he explained in great detail what he was doing with his crayons before yelling out across the room to Kit,
“Aunty Kit!”
His use of the term was slightly confused, since she was his grandmother after all, but as everyone else seemed to be his Auntie you could hardly blame him,
Besides, as Kit herself had said, she wasn’t ready to be anybody’s granny.
Kit wandered across, fetching with her another round of coffees for Alice and Helena, “Hey cute stuff,”
Che giggled adorably,
“So …” said Kit, seating herself down for a moment, “why the confused, long faces?”
Alice and Helena both simultaneously forced a happy smile, hoping to make the moment pass,
“Doesn’t wash with me,” replied Kit, leaning back in her chair, she crossed her arms seriously, “way I see it, you two need to figure out what ‘you’ want, when you do that, the rest will all just fall into place …”
And with that she kissed Che on the top of his head and left them too it,
Helena slid across the empty chair next to her and moved to sit beside Alice again, “What are you doing tonight?”
Alice shook her head, “Nothing,”
“Come round for dinner,” Helena suggested, “Lottie usually hangs out with Angie for a while and doesn’t get back till late, and the kids are with my mother,” she added,
Alice grinned, “Okay,”
They both grinned stupidly,
“Is this a ‘date’?” Alice whispered,
“Maybe,” Helena smirked, “so what if it is?”
Several hours later she stood on the front doorstep, her ankles surrounded by grocery bags and she fought to find her keys, expecting no one to be home. Lottie heard her outside, fumbling around and went to let her in,
“Hey,”
Helena looked at her, surprised, “Hey, what are you doing home?”
Lottie shrugged, walking away, “Rehearsals were a blast,” she replied sarcastically, “so I’m cleaning,”
Sure enough she wore old greying sweatpants and a tank top, her hands protected by a yellow pair of rubber gloves, her hair shoved up in a messy ponytail. The kitchen was a bombsite, everything from inside the cupboards lay strewn across the worktops and an overwhelming smell of cleaning products filled the air.

hey, i’m first! *squeals with delight* that was great hun, super duper great. i was kinda enthralled…so much so that i have neglected my work for half an hour, re-reading your story twice. ok, so helena and alice..very subtle which made it all the more yummy…i like them together, and its good to go into that “why start, we got hurt once before, blahblah” angst that everyone goes through. people avoid shit cuz of those convos and i say ‘hooey!’ so i’m glad they’re going there! and jo and lottie…lottie should call the girl. i like that you’re going into that as well–those communication subtleties that are layered and different among women…we can all play those parts, we can all be emotionally clueless…the best is when the group jumps on lottie about that. i cracked up. i also cracked up at dana’s preggers breast fetish…hilarious…keep up the story, i furkin’ love it:) xo, pps, when you get some time off work darlin’
Very nice! I really liked that lunchtime round table discussion. Re: Jo, As hb said, Lottie needs to just pick up the phone. Al + Hels, I still like! And I wonder what trouble is coming from Mr. Lottie’s Dad. (can’t remember their last name?) Glad you had the time to post, more when you can, sofa, ta!
YAY YOU’RE BACK AND I HOPE YOUR PRESENCE WILL ONCE AGAIN BE A REGULAR ONE!!! I had forgotten about this story, however now I am truly happy to be reminded about it once again. Lottie’s dad..hmm drama to come I feel the winds changing. Jo and Lottie have gotta to make up, with both of them meeting half way, cause as I see it neither of them is wrong. NC17 with Al and H to come, (prefer NC17’s with B & T any day though). I love how Tina comes in and reprimands them from there fights and such, its cute. PPRS!!!!!
I can’t wait to see how Lottie’s father behaves. It seems like so much of her life is clothed in mystery. PPS!
Well this chapter surely had Lottie at the center of a lot of drama. Entertaining all around. Love the scene at the planet as they all ganged up on Lottie. Can’t wait to see Lottie’s dad’s reaction to her new life.
Yeah, Lottie’s avoidance lost her her chance to have some control over her situation (with her father and Jo) and now the shit is hitting the fan at the same time as her father is knocking on the door. It remains to be seen if his presence will be as traumatic as Lottie feared. Also remains to be seen if Jo or Lottie will step up to the plate (an Americanism) in regards to their issue(s). I like to use parentheses and you like asteriks. To each his (or her) own.
oooo! This should be good! I am thoroughly enjoying your story, especially the new characters you have created! One request: Can you write a scene with Sharmen? Post soon!
Hey there Sofa! Brilliant chapter. Always love the group scenes… can just imagine Dana drooling over the baby breasts! Your dialogue is so much better than what the show provides. Interested to see the fallout over the arrival of Lottie’s father… I sense drama in the works. By the way, if it’s positive reinforcement you desire, I am only too obliged to beg for chapters!!
Me too Sofa, I’ll beg, I love this story, you just suck up into being one of the family. Thanks good job, can’t wait for next chappy, please do so soon, there is weekend coming up. Md
Perfect!!!!! Great!!!!! and the cliffhanger!!!!! u better hurry up and post the follow up….
So Lottie’s dad has graced his daughter’s life. I hope that he will not freak out while in Bette and Tina’s home. When he sees Bette will he see her mother in her as he see her in Lottie? I love Alice and Helena together. Besides Bette and Tina I would like to see those two together in the upcoming season.
That was awesome!
Sofa your story and storytelling just gets better and better. I love the subtle parallels between Lottie and Bette, they are sisters afterall, right?! You have the dynamics of these characters down so well that the dialog and their interactions, their quirks (pregnant breasts?! LOL) come totally to life on the page. i hope you never get tired of giving us your version of the girls, I don’t know if I’d survive!! LOL. PPS
