You (Part the Eleventh)
"Get the door, Dana," Alice muttered, trying to drown out the incessant knocking and having very little success. "Dana!" she muttered a little more forcefully, practically knocking Dana off the couch when she shook her shoulder.
"Wuzzat?" Dana mumbled, still asleep but coming back to consciousness a little bit painfully. She realized she was leaning off the couch at a very precarious angle, her arm around Alice’s waist being the only real thing that was keeping her from plummeting facefirst into the carpet. "You get it, Al. I’m sleepy."
"If I get it, you’ll have to get up anyway, so you might as well just answer it yourself. Besides, it’s your house." Alice responded with logic that even Dana couldn’t argue. She then rolled over so she was facing the back of the couch, pulling the blanket over her head in silent protest to the still incessant knocking.
"Fine," Dana finally said, standing up groggily before gravity made her fall to the floor anyway. "But you owe me." She stretched and made her way to the door, not altogether gracefully. "Have people never heard of this wonderful little invention called a cell phone?" she asked no one in particular before swinging the door open to reveal a very rumpled-looking Shane and a Helena who looked like she’d just come from a session with her personal trainer.
"About fucking time, Dane. We’ve only been out here for about half an hour," Shane greeted her, pulling her into a bone-crushing hug. "Nice jammies," she added, taking in the old Adidas shirt Dana was wearing along with her customary pink pajama pants.
"Fuck you, Shane. They’re comfy," Dana muttered, turning so she could give Helena a hug.
"They look it, darling," Helena smiled. "And we have to give her some credit, Shane. She could just as easily have answered the door naked."
"I wouldn’t put it past her. You saw the way she and Alice bolted for the Mercedes the second the plane touched down," Shane said with a grin, moving past a scowling Dana to walk into the condo. "Where is Sleeping Beauty anyway?"
Dana waved in the general direction of the couch, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes as she followed Helena and Shane into the living room. Alice was still completely covered in the blanket, and it looked like she was scrunched into as small a space as possible to avoid any interaction. "Alice, you fucking bum…wake up. Something’s wrong with the world when I’m up earlier than you are," Shane said in overly bright tones before plopping herself down directly on top of Alice. There was complete silence for a second before Alice started squealing and pummeling at Shane with blanket-covered fists. After Shane finally gave in and stood up, Alice moved the blanket enough to see the room.

Wow – really a well written piece, look forward to the next update.
Again another wonderful update, If you were distracted it did not show at all. You have really put a lot of thought and love into this story.The love they have is so amazing and what I think everyone is dreaming of, it just melts my heart. Please post again soon.
Great update, they are so sweet together and the talking is going really well! Nice job!!
Ok I demand you don’t end this any time soon :P i love this story!!! I’m glad they are takingit slower this time and really figuring out themselves and what they want. Great chap xx
Really well done…it’s no secret that I like it very much when the characters behave in ways that make sense. I love that you acknowledged that Dana’s insight is coming from a very real place. Cancer (and any life-threatening situation) does make you think…and confront the feelings that you would just try to ignore, no matter what the price, under other circumstances. Great update…looking forward to your next!
Okay…Please tell me you write as a profession…you are great! This is great! I love every word!!! Keep up the good work!!! Blown away!!! WOW!!!
You scared me when you said it was finished. For a moment I thought you wrapped up the story in a neat little package. I was relieved to see the story is still ongoing. I loved this chapter. As I was reading, I was amazed by how much the characters soiunded like themselves, especially in the interaction between Shane, Helena, Alice and Dana. Angelica was adorable, and it felt good that Dana was expressing her feelings. The end was cute. They said they weren’t going to have sex, but they couldn’t get comfortable without the skin on skin contact – yeah right … lol
I love it please post soon theres not a lot more than that that I can say but great update
