A/n: I was so surprised at how much interest I got with the first chapter, I think this is the most reviews I've ever gotten at one time for a new story, I will be continuing this story as a multi chapter fic, but, because I am also working on other projects including two other Detty fics ,plus being a full time student, I cannot guarantee weekly updates but I will try to update as often as I can ,enjoy the second chapter.

Chapter two: Troubling Thoughts
Betty went up the stairs and back to her apartment , pausing in front of her door ,before entering the apartment. Her mind was racing a mile a minute as the actions of Jesse and Daniel went through her mind. It was all too much, in one night , for her to process. She hadn't been this confused since Gio and Henry, though this was a slightly different situation. She sighed then opened the door, slowly walking into the room ,and was relieved when she saw that both Jesse and Amanda were gone,. It was a relief that would be short lived.
She walked over to her table looking at the mess when Amanda appeared a few feet away with a black hand bag in her hand.
"Hey..."Amanda said pitifully. Betty looked up then continued her cleaning by screwing the top back on a jar of dip.
"So....I made like a ton of money tonight ."Amanda said walking closer to the table, while Betty continued to remain tasked oriented and silent.
"And I'm a simple girl ,what do I need it for. Here you should put it toward rent." She said coming closer and lunging the bag toward Betty.
Betty continued not saying a word and picked up some cups. Amanda simply moved a bowl of chips over and placed the bag on the table ,before walking past Betty touching her shoulder instead of speaking.
"Hey, so remember that guy I was kissing earlier, yeah I don't think you know him ,so anyway I am so over him." Amanda said . Betty flinched and clutched her hands at Amanda's touch and words then continued to clean up.
"I was talking to him and he's kind of stupid, yes he's the kind of guy a girl would totally fall for , but he is so not worth it." Amanda said suddenly speaking in a serious tone.
Betty, who had her back turned , took her attention off the mess in front of her as Amanda said those words. Her efforts to try , for the moment, to forget what had happened earlier with Jesse , and then a few minutes before with Daniel, by focusing on cleaning her apartment ,were interrupted by what seem to be the beginning of some kind of apology from Amanda.
"Betty, I had no idea..." Amanda said in a remorseful voice. Betty reluctantly turned around to face her.
"Amanda look, I was wrong, you aren't the worst roommate ever and if you need to stay here for a little while longer...I'm fine with that. "Betty said turning away from her and back to cleaning up. Amanda smiled then spoke walking towards Betty.
"You know Betty, your lucky, when someone falls in love with you it's real, I never had that, I never know if I'm loved for who I am , or because I'm so pretty." Amanda said .
Betty shook her head smiled slightly and turned around to hand Amanda two green bottles of beer .
"Why don't you finish cleaning up in here." Betty said.
Amanda took the bottles and smiled , Betty smiled back and they had an unspoken understanding that things were okay between them . Betty left the room and headed up the stairs that would take her up to the roof ,with a bag to pick up the thrash and also for some air since her mind was still racing ,but now some of Amanda's words were floating in her mind as well.
"When someone falls in love with you, it's real."
Betty shook her head at that being the possibility for the reason Daniel had kissed her . This was Daniel she was thinking about, he wasn't Henry, or Gio or Walter, he didn't fall for or kiss girls like Betty, when he could have girls like Amanda and other model types ,but, then why did he kiss her, not knowing was driving her crazy. She was beginning to rethink not letting him explain or talking to him about why she'd kissed him back . Which was another thing that was driving her crazy, she'd kissed him back, she'd kissed Daniel!
She was brought out of the inner conflicts of her mind when she reached the door of the roof and walked over to the tables and started throwing things into the trash bag she held , while the wind gently blew, and that's when she saw Wilhelmina sitting on a picnic table, her back turned to Betty. She tried to quietly turn and walk away but Wilhelmina's voice stopped her in her tracks.
"Betty!" Wilhelmina called out. She then turned around and gestured to the spot next to her while Betty looked at her like a deer caught in headlights.
"Have a seat." Wilhelmina said in that authoritative voice of hers.
Betty reluctantly walked towards her and cautiously sat next to her, she avoided eye contact and nervously ran her hands down her dress as if wiping them. Wilhelmina then held a can of beer towards her , Betty took it still avoiding eye contact and quickly looked down at the can before taking a sip then handing it back to Wilhelmina who nodded at her then continued to stare out at the view of the city.
Betty looked at her then tried to calm her own racing mind by starring out at the view as well. And for a moment as she starred at the view of the city of New York her troubled thoughts were forgotten, if only for that moment, as she sat with an unlikely companion.
A/n:I know this was kind of short but , I will have another update either Tuesday or Wednesday , that will have some Detty confrontation as well as Daniel's POV, which I have already started writing, so let me know what you think by leaving me a review and or construct criticism or ideas of what you want to see next etc, that would be greatly appreciated, thanks for reading -Pessimistic Romanticist
