Dana waited until after practice before heading over to Shanes apartment. She looked at the numbers on the doors. She realized shes never been here before and she was pretty sure Shanes was apartment 6B. She knocked on the door, glad she waited until 2pm instead of the 6am she was originally going to show up just in case she picked the wrong apartment.

Shane answered the door, hair sticking out in all directions. Dana, man, what are you doing here?

I needed to talk to someone.

Shane held the door wider, Come in, come in. You havent been here yet, have you? This is the living room and heres my couch. Yup, still sleeping on the couch when Im actually here. Shane motioned to the couch, Have a seat.

On your bed? Are you trying to seduce me? Dana teased.

Not my style. So what can I do for you, Ms. Fairbanks?

Has Alice said anything to you about meor Bette?

Not that I know of. Shes still pissed at Bette for cheating on Tina. Shane sat down, We havent talked much lately. Why? Are you having second thoughts?

No. Im worried uh that she um might be-

Alice? I wouldnt worry about her, Dana.

How can you be so sure?

She adores you, Dana. Man, shes all googly eyed around you.

I think theres something between her and Bette. I know theyve kissed.

Poor Bette. The womans completely lost.

Poor Bette? What about me?

Dana, she loves you. Im sure she has no idea what shes doing. Her track records worse than all of ours put together.

Dana sighed, I guess youre right.

Of course I am. Give her some time. Shell come around.

But why Bette?

Bettes familiar.

And Im not?

Not anymore.

But shouldnt it be the same for us? I mean her and I should be in the same boat, right?

Dana, Dana, Dana. You go into every relationship like that person is the love of your life. Al is more like me. She goes into it thinking shes just going to have a good time and maybe shell get lucky.
