The More Things Change
“Deep. I like it, but you’re not usually so morose.” Bette smirked and rolled fully onto her side. Her eyes closed for a moment. “I have to be at the gallery tomorrow. Schmoozefest dinner party.”
“Oh?” Helena played it safe. She tended to keep out of Bette’s business, except to show up for support at events now and then. “Who are you schmoozing?”
Bette sighed and burrowed into her chair. “I’m sleeping out here again, ok?”
“Whatever you need.” Helena said with a shrug. Her eyes roamed to the horizon. The water was rough today. She had been contemplating a swim and walk on the beach, but decided against it. The ripples of previous storms were still being felt, and there were more storms to come. Her eyes flitted back to Bette.
Bette was staring at her. “Whatever I need?” She asked quietly. When Helena just blinked confusedly, Bette sighed and closed her eyes again.
Bette did not sleep over, as it turned out. She took a cab to her home, promising to call Helena the next day.
Helena spent her day at The Planet, before going over to The Hit Club to get her staff ready for the night. She arranged to meet Shane at Bette’s gallery, but as it turned out, Shane was too depressed to go out.
So Helena went alone. Which was fine, because after Bette gave up on Kelly, she found Helena. Together, they looked at a sculpture of a floating house above a floating tree above a cesspool of garbage. Fans had been installed to waft the scent of the exhibit outside. It was positively disgusting and reminded Helena of her own previous disinterest in the abstractions of the art world. She was wise enough to keep her distaste to herself.
Bette smiled and craned her neck to find Kelly. “Look at her,” Bette laughed, pointing at Kelly. “What was she even talking about with that speech?”
“Cheerleading to raise money. Feel-good slogans and vague encouragement.” Helena smiled and raised her glass to Bette’s business partner. “Well done.” She looked around the room and smiled in approval. “I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again. You do know how to throw a party.”

FINALLY!! You’re baaaack!! I’m soo sooo glad to see new story about my dream couple! Like the way you finished/closed all other stories LOL short and sweet – really short. Like that this new story’s post s6.Also loved this sentence: She really just wanted Bette off of this same old loop. The loop that Tina put her on, where Bette constantly schemed and worried about creating the kind of life she wanted rather than living the life she actually had.Think it’s the essence of one part of tibette relationship. So can’t wait for new adventures of great belena! YAY! Did I already told you how glad I am you’re back???
HIYA (waving back)! Where have you been? Who cares, just glad you’re back and with a new fic too. I’m already so intrigued by this story. Don’t you go disappearing on your fic fans again. Hope you post soon!
Glad you are back.I`m a Tibetter but I like your writing.PPS
God, there are no words to describe how happy I am to see this story. I like Tibette but I simply adore Belena, they are my favourite coupling, they make sense in my head (even more than Tibette). Never thought I would see something new, I thought all I had now were old stories to read over and over again.
