    The Fast and Fevered Fall – Chapter Thirteen

    “Bette wants to know that you’re going to be OK”

    “But does that mean that she wants me to be there?”

    “Bette wants you to be in the best place for you to get better, and we both think that’s probably LA. You’ll be around friends, and you’ll get to see Angelica.”

    Tina’s face momentarily brightened at the thought of her daughter. Then she started to frown. It was such a difficult decision to make. She didn’t want Angelica to see her like this, she didn’t even want Bette to see her, not right now and yet there was something telling her that she needed them, both of them, to make it through. Helena watched on as a range of emotions played across Tina’s face. She knew that Tina was going through agony trying to decide what she should do and there was nothing that Helena could do to help her. It had to be Tina’s decision.

    “Would I be able to stay with you, if I decide to go back?”

    “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

    “I haven’t said ‘yes’ yet.”

    “You don’t have to decide tonight.”

    “Can we talk some more in the morning? I’m tired and I need to go to sleep.”

    “Just one more thing and then I’ll let you sleep.” persisted Helena.

    “OK.” replied Tina, wearily.

    “You’ve been bringing women home?” asked Helena, with one eyebrow raised.

    “It would be more accurate to describe it as one woman.”

    “Why?”

    “Because I was lonely, and drunk, and I just wanted someone to be there in the morning. Is that so wrong?”

    “No, it’s not wrong, but I didn’t mean that. I meant why a woman?”

    “As opposed to a man?”

    “Yes.”

    “Because the best sex that I’ve had had always been with women.” smiled Tina.

    “I think I’m going to leave it there, just in case we get into a discussion about which woman in particular you had this best sex with.”

    “There’s always the swimming pool Helena.” laughed Tina gently.

    “I should go to bed, leave you to get some sleep.” replied Helena, still refusing to get drawn into that conversation.

    “Helena, don’t go. Stay here with me tonight.”

    “Do you think that’s a good idea?”

    “I just don’t want to be alone.”

    “OK”

    Helena laid down on the bed, and gathered Tina in her arms. The fact that they were both still dressed meant nothing to them. Tina was just glad to have Helena there with her and Helena was glad that she had finally got to provide Tina the support that she needed. Helena lay awake until she started to hear the deep rhythmic breathing that signalled that Tina had fallen into a deep sleep. It was only then that she let herself fall.

    Comments

    1. Yes, there is a very bumpy road ahead for tina, for everyone associated really. But it has to be Tina’s choice, no one but her, she’s the only one that can make that choice. And hopefully for the right reasons, and Angelica is as right as anything else. This Tina is a total mess, I hope that this is her rock bottom…somewhat like ms Jo’s, you two are on the same wave length…great writers, great stories, great storytelling!!!! Tks CG

    2. Why can’t I find other words for my comments? I just keep repeating myself. Oh well. It’s so hard to see Bette and Tina apart and under these circumstances and still, apparently, caring for each other deeply. I hope Tina can pull herself together, with Helena’s help because she’s not going to be able to do it all on her own, and find her way back to her family. Angelica needs her, and I also have this feeling that Bette wouldn’t mind having her around either… How do you always manage to break my heart with ALL of your stories?!

    3. “I could always drug her, chuck her on a plane and before she wakes up we’ll already be back in LA.” suggested Helena, brightly – That sounds like a reference to “Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood” lol

    4. I’ve always liked Helena, even in the show during S2 but you and tiff make me like her even more. And lol at there’s always the swimming pool…

    5. Do you think it would speed Tina’s decision to go back to LA if she were to know that Bette would meet her at the airport with her Levi’s on?? I think it would… next plane out!

    6. I would like to know, how old is Angelica? Tina needs some help and I think Bette will be the one to get her out of this druken mess. Looking forward to the next chapter.

    7. Great chapter – It’s a wonderful twist to have Bette and Helena working together to get Tina back on track. Can’t wait to hear more specifically what derailed her to begin with.

    8. i’m glad helena is there for tina but her move to LA is a must, i think only angelica and bette can help her out of the mess she got herself into, because bette was there from the beginning

    9. I love this….but I’m about ready for T to go back to LA, into rehab and her wife’s arms…and take care of her baby…enuff grief, she loves Bette…and Bette loves her…u know that!!!! we all do except IC and cronies…lol

    10. I’m a bit confused about the timeline and also with Helena questioning of Tina’s choice of bed mate? Is she emotionally attracted to man while physically needs a woman? I’m perplexed and Tina’s one messed up woman. Can’t wait for the back story that lead up to this. Thanks.
