“Hey I was calling to find out if you wanted me to pick up something to drink maybe? No, your bar is fully stocked. Ok, well I’m on my way. I’ll see you in bit. Bye.” Bette snapped her phone shut and proceeded to start up her car and drive. Helena wouldn’t tell her why she wanted to talk to her, but it was important that she do. She felt things had been going well between them and they were well on their way to becoming good friends. It’s funny she thought how things first started out with them to reach this point now in their lives. Who would have thought that over three years ago you wouldn’t have wanted them in the same room in fear of them trying to off one another. But what’s that old wise saying, if you live long enough you’re bound to change. And Bette knew without a doubt that they both had changed in so many ways. Hopefully they will continue to change some more for the better she hoped.

Bette hated going to Helena’s empty handed. She glance at the time to see if she could make a quick stop. She would go to the florist shop that was not to far from her condo. No matter how much she felt she had change you just didn’t go to someone home empty handed. Now she stood in the shop looking for the appropriate flowers for this occasion. But what was this occasion actually about? She wished Helena would have given her some type of clue. What could be so important that she wasn’t able to tell her over the phone anyway? With her selection in hand she made her way over to Helena’s. She would have to just wait until get there to find out.

Helena paced back and forth trying to calm her nerves. Her biggest fear at this moment was how Bette would react to her confession. Would she be repulsed by such behavior and walk out. Or could she forgive her and allow this friendship to grow. She was hoping for the latter. She didn’t want to lose the trust and respect that she felt they had gain with each other. Bette trust in her meant a great deal to her, she knew respect could always come later. But one battle at a time.
