Danish: From Beginning to End (Real Time 7)
2 Days Later
Everyone was gathered around Bette and Tina’s living room to watch Dana’s tennis match. Alice and Luke were laid out on the floor playing with Angelica while Carmen, Shane, Jenny, and Helena were all in a heated discussion about the best brand of toilet paper and Bette sat staring at the TV with a somber expression. Tina glanced over at Bette and reached for her hand, concerned.
“Are you ok?” Tina asked
Bette turned to Tina with a weak smile. “No.” She said honestly
No one knew of Dana’s plans to leave LA, and Dana had made Bette promise not to tell anyone, Tina included.
“What’s the matter?” Tina asked softly
“Nothing. It’ll be ok.” Bette looked at Dana on TV giving a pre-match interview and then looked at Alice and Luke laughing on the floor. “Eventually, it will all be ok.”
Tina looked at Bette with a curious look, but didn’t push for information.
Earlier That Day
Patiently waiting by the baggage claim area, Dana was staring off into space as she waited for Lara to arrive back from Paris.
Am I doing the right thing by leaving? It’s random, and it’s fast, and it’s not so much thought out. I can afford to stay in a hotel until I find a place; money’s not an issue. I can play tennis from anywhere I live, and Mack even said that it’s not a problem.
“Dana?” Lara’s hesitant voice broke into Dana’s thoughts
Dana jumped, scared at the unexpected voice. “Lara! Hi.” She smiled and stood up
Wrapping Lara in a hug, Dana held back tears as she though about how bad her actions had, and would, cause hurt to so many people; herself included.
“Welcome home.” Dana whispered
The couple pulled back and gave each other an awkward kiss.
“Come on. I’ll take you home.” Dana smiled softly at Lara
“God! It’s good to be back home.” Lara laughed as she and Dana sat down on the couch
“Lara, we need to talk.” Dana said immediately
“I know.” Lara sighed. “I’m sorry about the other day on the phone Dana.”
“It’s ok. I’m sorry too. I had no reason to go off on you like that.”
“It’s ok.” Lara whispered

It was almost to sad to read, thanks
All I can say is WOW…I am on the edge of my seat…I NEED MORE, MORE, MORE…You really know the characters so well…Seriously, I am on the edge of my seat!!!
Hey Poopy! I don’t know how your story got past me, but I’ve been reading like a madwoman. I love it! and I hate it! which is a great compliment on your writing. I am feeling so bad for Dana right now….but at the same time I agree with Tina….I’d have thrown her suitcase too! Anyway…looking forward to your next update!
0h no – you can’t leave us in suspense like that – get Alice on a plane right now and post soon. Please. See how nice I ask.
WOAH WOAH WOAH B! First off while you did recommend a stellar name you are conveniently forgetting that I came up with the jamming of the names and technically….technically you didn’t do it right you did it like Danish you can’t mix different variations of our names togther it has to be like. 33PoopyClosets or Shitanuz or something equally repulsive. BTW I have no idea why it posted what it did above I just hope Poop knows to erase it…and I totally won because you got to win the last argument AND you got to read it before hand so I was at an unfair disadvantage. So there
Part of me is glad that dana left and part of me is ticked at her. She did not even have the guts to tell her friends in person that she was leaving ggggggggrrrrrrrr!!! I hope alice tracks her down in NY. Post soon please. =)
damn Dana running away – it makes me so sad but am hoping for a tearful/loving New York reunion! Yet another fab update, love this story so much and can’t wait to read the New York chapter/s… go Alice – go get your woman!!!
holyyyy crackerr! :( how could u make me cry like that! :sniff:sniff: that was too much poopster! but it was just that fantastic! I really hope Alice tracks her down and Alice moves to NY with Dana! :) o o OH and the whole “who died ” thing was that from buffy? sounds like something cordy or buffy said at one time or another lol prettty prettty PRETTY plz post now… like right this second! :)
Sometime distance gives insight to the heart and this is NY you’re talking about, Alice can always take out a billboard ad to find her Dana ;)
Wow! I finally caught up with the last 3 chapters. They were all wonderfully written. I clearly missed a whole lot. I’m still holding out for a happy Danish ending. I’m thinking some drastic romantic jesture on someones part. I don’t know what, or how, but I know that I want Danish together. I have faith in Alice’s investigative skills. If anyone could find a missing person who doesn’t want to be found it’s Alice. I can’t wait to see where you are going to take this. I really, really enjoy your writting. Fabulous job. I will be awaiting your next update.
Though I am ashamed to say that I have never commented on your story, I’ve been reading from the beginning and I absolutely LOVE it! You do such an amazing job at portraying these characters and you write so well. It truly is an amazing story.
So fuckin sad, yet awsomely written. Please let Alice find Dana or have Dana come back; just as long as there’s some kind of hope. Still, this was amazing. So please post soon!
G’day Yoda! I feel bad because I am super duper happy that Dana left.. but I just cant wait to see what happens next! so very exciting! Luke reminds me of lots of my guy friends so its hard to hate him :( please make it easy!! the list is at 28 at the moment.. pretty scary considering thats nearly double my age.. have a good one yoda :D
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelll im glad i could make you laugh at my comment last time, and i was hoping i might be able to laugh at this chapter, buuuuuuut…nope! im kinda depressed now…oh and about the tv qoute, i think its that “i hate you right now” “i hate me too” thing, but i could be wrong. i just know ive heard that somewhere before…
He Poopy, Somehow i didn’t comment on the last chapter. Shame on me!! But reading this one I couldn’t forget. You had my crying like a little girl! I hope that Alice goes to NY to find Dana and talk some sence into that girl. And updating tomorrow can’t wait! Keep it up.
“Jeez. Who died?” Alice joked, earning wary looks from Bette and Tina. “Oh God, who died.” Alice asked seriously I WIN I WIN UH HUH YEAH. Great chapter the emotions were right on the money and Dana is awfully chickenshit but hey that’s true to form sometimes. I wish I could pick up and move to the beautiful mountains of Montana. Ahhh yes, anyway great chapter, I should be angry with you for doing this to Danish but I have to believe in something and Danish is the only thing I can hang onto. I also loved Shane’s reaction to the letter, it was perfect perfect perfect. Anyway so I expect the next chapter posted tomorrow, no excuses lol. Great job Poop can’t wait to see where it goes shitinthecloset33 (the new AlShaDane)
So I am talking to you…reading your fic…and other things at once…I am gifted in that way! LMAO. Anyways, this was so fucking sad babe! I wasn’t prepared for it. But it was of course, rediculously well written. Damn you for making Alice cry! And I will not guess until you give me the ok…because I had it in T-minus 5 seconds. But it was perfectly executed on your part. So yeah….this was great. YOu had better post again tomorrow night. Thanks babe! This was so good. oh….almost forgot to say that I fucking love you :D
Hey!!!! ClozzyD, just remember who came up with that name…(that would be me) and also that you did NOT win! I had the amswer first, but was forbidden to say….so there! (_*_). Long live shitinthecloset33….the new AlShaDane! Ok…sorry. I need sleep.
Hmm what to say. It was fantastic, as always. A little bit of my danish-loving heart broke while reading it, but you still managed to bring in the light hearted moments when needed. It was great, so please post soon. Your fave writer needs you to post soon. That’s an order missy!
Wow! That was amazing. I didn’t expected anything else by the way:-))) Hope you post soon. Have a nice day and pleeeeeeeeeaaaaaase don’t let me wait long:-)))))
I’m not going to cry…but it was a fucking amazing chapter! Despite the fact that Dana’s gone (man, that’s even hard for me to type, lol). And now I feel bad for Lara again. I go through periods of hating her and liking her, it’s weird. Alice isn’t going to go crazy again, is she? She kind of scared me in that last part. Ah, she’ll probably go to NY, right? Riiight? Oh well, whatever happens you know I’ll still read! Keep up the wonderful writing, love!
Oh my god! Have i mentioned lately tat I love this story?! I’ve missed the last couple updates, but catching up is incredibly exciting, there’s always more to read. i can’t believe dana actually went through with it..it’s just so sad and she shouldn’t run away. i wonder if alice will ever find her, I really hope she does one day. I wonder where the story will go from here…damn it’s just so good! so surprizing and exciting and amazing..and all those things that you’ve heard me say many times before lol anyways…you’re great and i can’t wait to read more..i hope this comment goes through, for some reason on my new computer its not working. gah, technology…anyways love, can’t wait to read more. great job, as always.
hey poopster..no no no no. I don’t like this. This isn’t how this is suppose to be. Are you going to fix this?!..please FIX THIS! Dana is such a douch right now! she has to get back gawdddd. And i don’t blame bette because dana asked her and as her friend she did what she was told. And i feel so bad for lara but dana finally told her the truth. She finally got out of that comfort with lara and expressed to her that she never loved her with ALL her heart. Now she’s gone. POOPSTER NOW I’M YELLING AT YOU! YOU BETTER FIX THIS MISSY! OR YOU’LL HAVE ONE UPSET BROWNEYES COMING AFTER YOU! and i have no idea where your going with this btw, so i’m not even gonna try to figure it out. But please let Alice get her real woman back and danish to be together and happy. but don’t make it soon, lol, i never want this fic to end. K, love you poopster, now hurry and post! hehe.
So, let me ask you this…were you quoting “Who died…” from Felicity or from…??? Am I’m a little owrried about myself that I know that particularl line appears in Felecity, a show I’ve only seen rarely. In re-runs. Zoinks! Alright, time to fix this…interesting for an episode, but I need my Danish in the same city if, even is they aren’t “together” together, that way there’s at least some hope. By the way, I really did mean for the PM to be a nice thing. Glad you’re back and on the mend.
Aaaaah Poopy, you’re making me want to smack my favorite lady upside the head! And poor Alice…destroyed all over again. But all is okay because i know you are going to make it all better in the end. Gut-wrenching update, but great as usual…I expect that next update soon! Hehe
lol, Jenny does look a little bit like the girl from the ring in that scene. Wow, this chapter was somewhat sad. OMG, Lara really wanted to give them a chance (again)? I’m so glad Dana didn’t choose the convenient way (some people do that, if you can’t have the one you really want, than just settle for the other). You got me teary-eyed when the gang-members read Dana’s letter one by one and their reaction to it. Are Shane and Alice be able to track Dana down in NY? I need to know…I’ll be waiting for the next update in anxiety. ;)
great chapter! you nailed all the emotions right on the head. i’m with dana, in the same situation i might just up and leave without saying goodbye too. it’s too hard to say goodbye to the people you love. and we all know how dana is with dealing with her emotions and how easily swayed she can be by what her friends tell her. had she tried to say goodbye, she most likely would’ve ended up staying in LA. can’t wait to see where you take us next.
god help us I can’t wait to see what you do with this story please post soon I love it great update
Great chapter! I hope the gang go to new york and rescue dana!
Damn Poopy, you are the shit! Nice making with the crazy sad drama like that. I can’t wait to see what Alice does & how Dana reacts.
um :(
