Alice-

Five years ago I went on a holiday expecting a tan, and came back with a girlfriend. A girlfriend that I am still in love with today. Dana is officially my happiest, longest lasting relationship. So it took a lot of time and embarrassment for us to actually get it together, it was worth it in the end.
The very day we got back from Barbados, I moved into Danas house and I guess I just never left. I couldnt, physically could not. It took months before I could bear to be away from her. I am so in love right now that if I were somebody else Id think it was disgusting.
Ive become Danas lady, though I dont like to admit it to Dane, I still like her to think that its me whose in charge. But its true, when I watch her play matches Im that woman in the stands cheering like she knows whats going on. I have to be supportive tennis is after all what blessed Dana with her incredible body.
You wouldnt believe how much competition I have to beat off though. Its like every match she wins theres a new groupie trying to muscle her way in. But I can spot Dana groupies a mile off, its almost become a game to Shane and me.
Dana though, the loveable geek that she is, never catches on to any of their flirting ways. Or if she does she never speaks about her fans to me. To be honest I love the way girls just jump around her. I love how they dont like me, even if Dana hates it. Because I know Dana loves me. They could streak across the tennis court and though shed look shed never want to do anything else.
Who would have thought that I could settle down?


Dana-

Five years ago my best friend made me the happiest woman alive. Im not joking, seriously am not. Do you know what its like spending so long alone. Waking up almost every single morning to find nothing but an empty space beside you, and all the time the person that youre supposed to be with is right under your nose.
When I used to think of Alice the first thing that always came to mind was my attractive, irritatingly bisexual, dry humoured best friend, but when I think of her now I dont even have time to think before I start to melt. I wake up in the morning and shes lying there next to me, and Im holding her. I get to hold her. She loves me and that is a fact that still gives me butterflies.
Im such a fool for her, and I know that its obvious to almost anybody. But its easy to be in love with Alice.
Sometimes when I go to dinner meetings with her friends from the magazine I watch them watching her enthralled in every word that leaves her mouth and it makes me proud because I know that at the end of the day Im the one that she wants to go home with. Shes came so far, shes accomplishing so much, and to begin with I was a little afraid that with all the work she would be putting into the magazine thered be no time left for me. But the magazine is a success and Im still here, were still together.
