Few days later Shane was still with Alice, the bruises and the wounds were slowly healing and Alice was helping shane without knowing, to forget that day that made her think of so many things that had happened and seemed to happen again.

Altho Shane was in good company her mind drifted off so many times,she was affraid things were becoming too much for her,
since Cherie, Shane became vulnerable for love which she knew but pushed it off cause who needs love right?
You cant find it but you cant search for it either so how would you know if love was on your path of life?
but.. what… what if… love was standing right in front of you… no.. it can’t it just can’t…it only gives trouble… right?

The dark haired girl shook off her thoughts as Alice was standing in front of her searching for her notes for work
Shane stood next to her and saw the notes
“Shane can you find the..”
“here” she smiled and offered the notes which the blonde took and touched shane’s hand with hers
“thanks.. shane” she looked up staring into those green melt-away-eyes for a moment when a smokey voice said: “look ehm i’ve been here for a few days and I think I could go home now I mean.. I walk better now and my ribs are healing and..”
Alice interrupted.. “why? no.. you’re staying here”
“nah I dont wanna bother you”

Dana’s House

“So baby what’s for dinner?” Lara said chuckling knowing Dana was an clums in the kitchen she was sitting on the couch reading the article about the ‘Lezzie tennisplayer wins battle’ stupid title but great article about her girlfriend inside there was a picture of them kissing when Dana won, she looked at it proudly
“you’ll see” Dana said with a formed happy voice not wanting Lara to know she already burned the chicken, which ofcourse already was noticed by Lara who walked towards the kitchen and playfully said “you sure?” throwing her arms around her waist and softly placed her lips on her neck, causing the brunette to jump a little
“Whoa”
“Okay how about I’ll make dinner and you desert?”
“I thought I was the dessert?” Dana grinned and kissed the redhead full on the lips, just when the kiss became passionate the doorbell rang, and an unknown guy was standing in front of Dana


“Ehh hello?”
“Hi.. ehh I have a very awkward question but you know this person?”
He showed a picture, a small figure on it with dark eyes and dark hair, the picture looked like a screencap like taken from a video or dvd, her eyes went wide but quickly changed her facial expression in a clumsy way and said: “so what if I do?”
“don’t worry I’m not a stalker or whatever I just… I got something that belongs to her… please tell you know her…”
Dana nodded and the boy smiled big
“Thank god i’ve been searching my ***** off now i’ve been through all these houses I agree it makes you think i’m a bad guy but am not, if you know her I’ll show it to you… I’m Mark..”
and he hold out his hand to introduce himself , holding a video tape in the other hand, “raven beauty” written on it.

Alice’s House

“You nuts? you’re not bothering me like… at all besides you need rest you need someone to take care of you and I’m willin’ to” she smiled and Shane looked down at her feet hearing the words that were said
“Besides you look like *****”
“Shut up”
“you do, and don’t give me bull that you’re in no pain anymore cause I know your ribs hurt like *****”
“Nah it’s okay, really”
“Really?” the blonde attempted to poke her against her stomache and shane tried to step back but it went to fast and the next moment alice had her in her arms
“ouch” she muttered
“see, you’re staying” she said as she lifted her friend up on the way to the couch
Shane nodded “Okay but just a few days”
“Sure” Silence filled the room but soon:

“ALICEEEEE” the voice came from down the hall
“***** payday, look be right back my neighbour is an ***** he realy needs to get laid once in a while”
Shane chuckled at Alice’s comment and watched her friend go to the hall, while searching for something in her pocket.

Dana’s House

As she let him in questions followed
“Okay so what is that tape?”
“ehm well the tape is 7/8months old so, well I was working at the filmstudios where this girl was to, I only know she is a hairdresser but I never found out her name anyway in the room I was filming to check if my camera’s worked, that girl…”
dana interrupted when she saw the honesty in his eyes
“Her name is Shane”

“Shane” he smiled as he spoke her name, Dana noticed the respect he had for her friend when she saw his face and was intriqued to see the tape

Lara saw the guy, she thought he was a friend of Dana’s, introduced herself and asked him to sit down
Dana continued
“what did she do?”
“well let’s see”
and he put the video into the VCR

Alice’s House

Moments later the blonde came back cursing in herself her neighbour indeed was a pain in the ***** sometimes especially when it was payday, and Shane snorted her nose quickly putting the coke back in her pocket and made sure nothing was to be seen. She struggled to get the remote when Alice handed it to her and sat down next to Shane.
“You okay? you seem a bit pale, more then you already are”
“Mhm miss sarcasm, I’m fine, am hungry tho…” she said in her best ‘poor kid’ voice as she leaned her head on Alice’s shoulder
“Yeah yeah i’ll go” as she was struggling to get up Shane stopped her “No wait..”
“What? you want food right?”
“Yeah but… let’s… yeah let’s just sit like this… for a few minutes… okay? I’m cold”
Alice smiled to herself and holded the dark haired girl in her arms but felt her skin was indeed cold
“Shane, you’re like ice”
“Oh really which taste?”
“Sweet vanille…” Alice trailed off and immediatly added what she really wanted to say “No I mean you’re cold”
“So sweet vanille hm? how you know?” Shane said trying to change the subject and think over why her friend just said sweet vanille.
“Shut up”
As she was teasing Alice, a sharp pain in her stomache which felt like she was been stabbed appeared and made her curl up as a ball into her friends arms, Alice noticed and became worried
“Are you really okay?” her voice soft and sweet.
“Yessssss Al, please just leave it”
The reporter ofcourse wanted to say something but when she saw Shane’s eyes she didn’t,
but wondered what was going on in that head of her, cause when she looked at her,
she saw nothing but emptyness.
