Dana sunk into her bed. She thought that she had cried so much the night that Alice had broken up with her, but last night was definitely the most she ever cried. She cried for the empty feeling in her heart. It was empty she decided. If she had no Alice, then she had nothing. She was empty. Well except for the tiny beat of her heart, that was growing weaker within each passing hour. Each time her heart pumped, meant it was one more beat towards Alice leaving and that was in three hours. Dana stayed in this bed for two days, not wanting to leave. Dana told herself that once Alice was finally gone then her heart would just stop. It would break completely. It was broken, but it had not been broken completely.

            All of her friends tried to get her to talk to Alice, make her stay. But she had no strength. The only thing she remembered was Shanes words. That only she could figure out how to show Alice how much she loved her. But Dana could not figure out what she could do. She showed Alice how much she loved her every day. What could she do different?

            So for the past two days she has lain in bed thinking of ways to show Alice how much she loved her; to make her stay; but had nothing good enough.

            She refused to talk to anyone, and she knew that at this moment the gang would be sending Alice off. Sending her far from where she belonged, and that was in Danas arms.

            Dana did not hear Lara, enter her condo, or climb the stairs to her bedroom.

            Lara knocked before entering Danas bedroom. Dane? Lara said.

            Hey. Dana said brushing a tear from her eye.

            Whats up?

            Been thinking, you? Lara said sitting next to Dana and taking her hand.

            Yeahsame here. What have you been thinking about? Dana just wanted to talk about something besides her problems for once; something to keep her mind off of Alice. Lara had been there for Dana, this whole time. She did not know how she was going to repay her friend. But she knew some how she would be able to. One day at least.
