Alice sat in silence at the L.A. Airport with only her racing mind to keep her company. She was picking up Lizzy from the airport and was nearly sick from being so nervous. It had been nearly a week since Dana came to her house that late, stormy night and confessed her love to Alice. She smiled as she remembered how Dana had shocked her with her courage and wouldn’t let Alice take the easy way out. She was a different Dana Fairbanks from the one that she had originally met and fallen in love with. This Dana was articulate and fearless and Alice knew that when Dana had confessed her love, she meant it with all her heart. Alice had wanted to doubt her because she did not want to be hurt like that again, but like she said, this was a different Dana Fairbanks. They had spent the rest of that night holding each other and whispering words of love and happiness. Alice felt whole again, but she had made the decision to wait on sleeping together until she could properly end her current relationship with Elizabeth, who also happened to be her fiancé and someone that she did truly and deeply care for.

The rest of the week had been hard for Alice as well. She had been subconsciously avoiding Dana, and she wasn’t sure why. Alice loved Dana and wanted nothing more then to be with her, but Alice found herself dodging the tennis star’s attempts at meeting. If Alice were honest with herself, she knew that the reason for her behavior was simply the fact that she was nervous around Dana now and was scared that the athlete would change her mind. She knew that she had to get over this fear or it would kill her and ruin her chances of true happiness, but for now, she was avoiding Dana to keep the status quo. ‘If I don’t see her, the we are still back together….Wow…I am one fucked up lesbian!’ Alice was laughing at herself for rambling on in her head when she heard a familiar voice call her name and then felt a pair of arms surround her.

"Hey baby, did you miss me?" Alice turned to face the tall, beautiful musician, when she felt herself being pulled in for a deep kiss.
