…."I don’t think that I can live without you."

            Those words still haunt Dana’s thoughts as she lay in bed next to Lara. She watched her sleep peacefully and stroked her hair. Even though, it’s been only six months since she broke up with Alice, she couldn’t let her go. She sighed heavily as she dragged herself out of the bed. She yawned and stretched as she walked towards the bathroom. She walked over to the shower and turned it on. She took off her clothes and hopped into the shower. She ran her head under the water and raked her fingers through her hair. She grabbed her sponge and began to wash herself up. She heard the door open and knew that Lara was up.

“Hey babe,” Lara came in and got undressed.

“…Hey,” Dana rinsed her body and stood under the hot water. The curtain was drawn back, and Dana looked back. Lara stepped into the shower, and Dana got out of her way. “It’s all yours,” she got out of the shower and grabbed a towel. Lara shrugged it off and took a shower.

            Dana finished getting dressed, and Lara put on her jacket. She brushed her fingers through her hair and pulled it up in a ponytail. Lara looked at Dana as she grabbed her things.

“Can you take me to work?”

Dana nodded. “Yeah,” she walked out of the bedroom, and Lara shook her head.

            The ride to work was silent, only the radio was making the noise. Dana pulled up to the Planet and turned off the Subaru. Lara hopped out and walked into the Planet. Dana sighed and took the key out of the ignition. She walked into the Planet and found Shane and Carmen sitting at a table. She walked over to them and sat down.

“Hey guys,” Shane nodded.

“Hey, how’s everything going?”

Dana exhaled. “I don’t know anymore Shane. It’s not the same. Did I make the right choice?”

“You keep asking that same question for the last five months. At first, you were in love with Lara and now you ask yourself, are you still in love?”
