That Same Old Two-Step
“And she just let you?” Bette asked taking another shot.
“She was pregnant, Bette. Horny. We weren’t in love. Though I cared for her. Still do in fact.”
“You said you could have destroyed me if you’d wanted to. I don’t believe that.”
“Why not?” Helena said pouring more tequila into her shot glass.
“Because look at you! You can’t even manage to take care of yourself without falling prey to some gambling addict. I don’t see how you could have done that to me.”
“I resent what you’re implying.”
“Where’d the real Helena Peabody go? Not the one you showed us when you started hanging around Alice. I mean the bitch. The woman who didn’t give a damn about taking anything she wanted. Where did she go?”
“You were attracted to Candace from the start right?”
Bette looked away and sighed.
“I answered your question about Tina. You were attracted to her right?”
“To an extent.”
“Elaborate.”
“You loved Tina didn’t you?”
“Love is such a strong word, Bette. I felt for her. I cared for her.”
“But you didn’t love her?”
“I’ve never been in love, Bette,” Helena said coldly.
“Not even with Winnie? You had children with her.”
“So? I was young. Foolish. Winnie is not the woman I should have had children with. But that’s the past.”
“She looked at me and didn’t see me. She didn’t know me. Didn’t know my faults. Couldn’t see my flaws. She saw Bette Porter director of the CAC. Strong. Confident. Arrogant. She saw what I wanted her to see.”
“Until you wanted her to see the real you. Right?”
“Right.”
“Was it worth it?”
“Of course it wasn’t worth losing everything I held dear.”
“But you did it anyway. Maybe you wanted an out. You knew you couldn’t do it yourself, couldn’t leave Tina, so you made the choice easy for her. She found out and was gone. Is that what you wanted?”
“Do you see any of the money you win for Catherine? Or does she just keep it all for herself? Is sex your payment? Living in her penthouse suite? How the mighty have fallen.”
“Are we going to compare notes on how far we’ve fallen?”
“I fell but picked myself back up. I can’t say the same for you though.”

This is great. I hope you do more.
Speedy, it may actually make for a good script! I can imagine the 2 of them actually doing this. Great job! :D Do continue!
This is good,I hope too see more of it in the future. Thanks for posting it!
cool speedy…looking forward to the next chapter…
Speed Racer, Nice story! I’ve been waiting about a month for the resolution to the cliffie from “Say It Like you Mean It.” This is a great Bette/Helena interlude and very possible. I just loved the way you let them bait each other in “Mean It.” Hope you haven’t given up on that one. I know it’s often hard to get to post when you have that real life thing going on, but hope you have time soon! Thanks for writing!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hala fucking luia…..
I think my spelling is off…but Yea…now if only you could tell IC!!!
LMAO, that was great! Please write more, it’s priceless.
Hey SR, Great intro for what promises to be an interesting and humorous tale. Loved the ending as both gals stood shouting their respective mantras. I can’t wait until you continue this story as it illustrates your terrific talent. Many thanks, Your Loyal Fan.
speedy hun, did I ever tell you that you ROCK! I mean, you could write a story about George W. and his teddy bear and I’d still be captivated by it! Awesome! I think this is the 2nd story you should continue (after Say It :p) Speaking about Say it. I’m VERY eagerly waiting for the next chapter ;)
“… And we’re not going to take this shit anymore!” I hope to hell IC gets the memo. Great stuff!
very nice…please continue
OMG, Speedy, this is SO spot on for both Helena and Bette. I long to see this actually in the show! Great job!
I haven’t read it yet but had to make comment. Thanks for the “crumb” I know it will be filling and thanks to JaneC for tipping me off on another site that Speed_Racer has posted a story. Now I will go read ;-)
Thanks for the story. If only the writers of this show could have one tenth of the insight you have into Helena our favorite season 2 bitch. Great interaction between the two. Very much in character to both. Now I’ll go read it again about two three more times.
