Wanted chapter 9
"No matter what happens between your mommies, we both love you very much," Bette whispered. "We’re both always going to be here for our little angel."
Angelica grabbed the toes from one foot and tried in vain to bring them up to her mouth. The simple effort made Bette laugh again. She managed to get the baby’s diaper on her, despite Angelica’s obvious wish to go au natural. She picked her up and returned to the kitchen to get a bottle of breast milk from the fridge. They sat together in the living room and stared into each other’s eyes as Bette fed her. Angelica was soon drifting off to sleep, so Bette returned her to the nursery and laid her down into the crib. She turned on the baby monitor before leaving and searched out the other speaker so that she could relax while still having the assurance that a rhythmic breathing pattern continued from her daughter.
She opened a bottle of Chilean Carmenre and poured a glass to enjoy as she retrieved her cell phone from her purse. She dialled as she walked back into the living room with her wine.
"Hello?" Helena answered.
"I have a sleeping baby, a glass of wine and time to talk, how about you?"
Helena leaned back in her office chair.
"I didn’t think I’d hear from you this early," Helena replied with a smile. "That daughter of yours is quite co-operative isn’t she?"
"I’m very spoiled with how good she is," Bette said. "I think Shane tired her out this afternoon. She was here when I got home."
"So you didn’t even speak with Tina," Helena said.
"Nobut I did have quite the conversation with Shane," Bette admitted. "She figured out about us."
"She’s a perceptive person," Helena was not shocked at Bette’s news. "And she was being awfully quiet this morning at breakfast. I was wondering if the wheels were turning for her."
"But she’s also someone I can trust," Bette assured her. "Her knowing won’t mean everyone knows. She wouldn’t even say anything to Carmen."
"It’s for the best, this early," Helena agreed, though truth be known she didn’t want to keep this to herself for much longer. "I know there are other factors you have to consider."

Still like Helena and Bette very much and i look forward when the time comes and they tell their friends about them.Post soon.
Can’t wait till they come out to the gang!
Really enjoying the HeleBette combo.
Yes, indeed, it will be most interesting once the cat’s out of the bag and we get to see the various reactons. But until that time, Bette better hit the shower.
OMG! it’s great update Thanks JSK! Pls continue post soon!!
Wonderful update. Can’t wait for the next update.
At first I didn’t think either Helena or Bette would go for the other but you have made it so believable that I am actually rooting for them. I really like them as a couple! Keep up the good work and please post soon. I can’t wait to see how this one plays out.
You’re great even when you don’t thin k it is your best. I hope that you’ve registered with the FANISODE competition.
Thanks for the wonderful update, really can’t get enough of this story…well anything really that you write…This whole B/H it looks serious, When tina finds out it’s gonna be great…I just everyone to be happy in the end…sometimes life really sucks…
Wow…I just came back to read a second time, with the same result…wow! You continue to amaze me jks. Love where you are taking this story and love how you are portraying the two main characters. I anticipate quite the interesting scene when Bette and Tina finally do see each other and speak….I consider myself to be a staunch B&T fan, but, boy oh boy, are you making this interesting!!!
I love this Bette and Helena and this is excited, can’t wait to see what’s next, thanks!
Well I ran from this story like a scalded dog when I first saw it. Now I’m anxiously awaiting each post. Love your writing style and your subject matter. You have done the impossible – made me want a Helbette combo.
Great Chapter! Can’t wait until the gang finds out….Gee, I wonder what reaction Tina will have? I find myself enjoying Bette and Helena more and more…the maturity coupled with the passion of there liasons makes them a very appealing!
I am sorry you are having a bit of writing block…but I can tell you, it doesn’t show in the least in your writing. This was pitch perfect as always! Thanks!!
I was great, as ever! I also have to say: I loved the shane-bette conversation, they really came to live in my head, i coul totally see them sitting next to the pool talking!!! It was amazing! Seems like you really know the characters! Write a book, and I’ll buy it, write a movie and ill watch it :-D
Another wonderful chapter. Through your amazing skills, you have won me over. I was rather apprehensive at this pairing at first. I’m actually looking forward to Bette and Helena’s declaration. I’m especially interested in Tina’s reaction. Really can’t tell you’re having a writing’s block. Thank you.
It’s nice to see Bette and Helena getting along so well and feeling so enthusiastic about their relationship. I’m really interested in the next B&T conversation…AND, of course, the eventual confession to their friends.
Still enjoying your B & H pairing. You keep them so true to character especially with Shane in the picture. I can’t wait until they are comfortable enough to tell the rest of the gang. Looking forward to your next chapter so please post soon.
Again, it was just letter perfect. Declarative, not surreptitious — how wonderful of a line is that???!!! Personally, I don’t expect Tina is going to have much of a reaction at all, but if she does, I’m sure you’ll write it as effortlessly as you’ve written these chapters. If you’ve got writer’s block, you ought to think about boxing it up and selling it, I think there are plenty of writers who’d want to get them some of it. What a freaking joy this story is to read.
I can’t help but to wonder if Tina has actually gone through with her thoughts about men, or if it continues to be an unresolved fantasy. While I am really enjoying this B abd H pairing, I don’t like to feel as if Bette is cheating again. You know what I mean. We keep hearing about Bette, but I would be really interested in Tina’s thoughts and actions as of late. I would also be interested in a touching base conversation between bette and tina, not that tina has to give her permission to move on, but I think there would be less guilt and hiding. What’s going to happen if Tina comes to Bette and says she doesn’t know what she was thinking, that she had a monemtary lapse of mind (although not of body), and wants to get back…then what…Bette is the big cheater again! Just my thoughts…thanks as always for the brilliant chapter!
Oh please, don’t stop writing this story!
I always hate it when the chapter ends because I want to keep reading this story. I was going to try not to read this chapter until you had posted several more, but HELL,I couldn’t do it…I am so weak! Please post soon so I can get my fix!
i cant believe tht im sayin this but… i think im rooting for the HeleBette team :S oh well a bit of alternate semi-reality cant hurt :P lol lovin this, post asap!
New love is always appealing…..
JKS,Another blistering chapter where truth appears to be the aim of the game. It was very pleasing to see Bette and Helena be honest and open about their union; present and planning for a future. You capture these moments with the precision of an Olympic marksman. A Bullseye every time. Thank you so much for creating a story that I wan to see in Season 4. Please make it so. Your Loyal Fan.
Just read all the chapters of this wonderful story today. I love it! Looking forward to hearing the gang’s reaction to their relationship. Keep up the great work. :)
Nothing about this story is false. Everything is so real and true to life. I’ve seen the word brilliant thrown around a few times in relation to your writing. It works. You are an artist. This is a work of art. A masterpiece. If on canvas, it should be hanging in the Louvre. Beauty should be honored, Swim. Thank you for giving me something to honor and adore. I do so love Helebette!
I truly luv how you’ve written this story. You make it seem like these words would really be coming out of these characters mouth (hope you understand what I mean). Great post. Also luv how B & H still haven’t defined what their relationship is but are just enjoying the moment.
“I’ve said it before Bette, parenthood and biology are entirely unrelated,” Helena replied. “You are a parent to that child, regardless of any definition one might come across. Love makes a family.” Too true.
You have written this piece with such delicacy, a reverence to compassion and humanity, a salute to love. Great warmth exists here, and it is a pleasure to read. Freedom to love is not dissimilar to circling thermals under outstretched wings; it can take you high enough to see the reality of all things, bitter sweet, fragile life …. You portray it adeptly.
Still great and I’m really looking forward to the upcoming conversations with Tina – I think she’ll find this hard – her former lovers getting together while she’s still flailing about, not sure of what she wants. I really like the way you’re portraying Helena – she’s trying not to push too hard but sinking deeper with every day. Lots of potential drama there.
I can’t wait for the drama to begin, jks! Oh..and you so have me wishing for this pairing on the show. I keep thinking…hmmm..Bette has a blue car.
very nice. i’m looking forward to Tina’s response as well.
I am greatly enjoying the direction of this story. Bette and Helena are turning out to be quite compatable for one another; sexually, intelicutally, emotionally. My only fear is when Tina finds out. Though now that Bette is a secured parent of Angelica, there isn’t too much Tina can do to prevent Bette from seeing her daughter. Thank Helena for that one!Please post soon. Great chapter.
I’m thoroughly enjoying this! I look forward to another installment soon.
cannot wait until tina finds out –oh boy will she be pissed….brilliant
Hey Swimmie – there you are, I’ve missed you :o)) Great chapter – Shane IS YODA lol….Bette just have to remember that the grass always seems greener on the other side!!! Are there a Snip off bliss on the way :o))….
“You’re going to make me think you like me.”…poor Bette, so starved for affection that she sleeps with a lizard. I respect you and your writing too much JKS to say more. I hate Tina Kennard right now. She is the true author of this mess. Hey – my fanficworld and SHOworld are meshing, but you just keep up the good work. I’m glad Bette is getting some attention.
Maybe a bit on Tina’s thought process? Thanks!
