Chapter Four (edited because I can’t read good)
Helena looked up from her piano with a short, terse statement prepared for whoever had dared to interrupt her. She saw Alice freeze halfway toward her with an expression of genuine fear, as though she’d suddenly thought better of disturbing her friend.
Opting for distraction, Alice said snidely, "Geez, Hel. Have you run a comb through that hair today?"
Absently, Helena ran a hand over her hair. It did feel as though it had acchieved maximum volume. Frowning unhappily, she realized that Alice had succeeded in drawing her off the track.
Opening her mouth to chastise her friend, Helena snapped it shut again when she realized that Dana was walking into the loft with a curious expression.
Helena felt a slight sense of preemptive shame over her looming outburst and then good breeding took over and she said politely, "Hello there, Dana. Come to join Alice for supper?"
Dana looked back at Helena, clearly apologetic at the thought that she was interrupting the flow of musical genius.
"Yeah. Listen, Helena, we can go out if you need some time alone."
Alice wiggled her eyebrows and said, "She won’t be alone, Dane. She’ll have her piano."
Helena abruptly stood up from the piano bench and flexed her fingers. "Truthfully, my arse is quite sore. What time is it?"
Dana checked her watch and said helpfully, "Just after seven."
Helena appeared suitably shocked and though Alice suspected Helena was milking it for her exit, she was still surprised when the brunette said in a voice filled with awe, "Jesus bloody Christ. I’ve been playing since I got home from school."
Dana goggled at Helena, her eyes wide with amazement and newfound respect. "Since two o’clock?"
Helena had the good grace to show mild embarassment and she said dismissively, "Must have gotten carried away. I’ll just leave you two to your pizza, then."
Alice met Dana’s eyes subtly and she grinned when Dana smiled back and shrugged. "Hellcat, stay and have dinner with us. You probably need some human conversation."
Helena looked between the two of them uncertainly, "I don’t want to intrude."
Dana scoffed and said easily, "C’mon, Helena. You’re not intruding."
Helena inhaled deeply, allowing the scent of cheese and pepperoni to fill her nostrils. "Well, all right. I’m rather famished."

frip may I say that I really like this story. I am not really into the Danish couple, even though I liked them, but this is a well done chapter, love it!!!
Okay that last scene was hot and sweet at the same time. I love Shane as she had second thoughts with eating the lobster. Alice’s remark about Helena being The Incredible Hulk was funny. Alice and Dana are f’n hot and adorable in your story. And also, you’re a great writer and never stop writing. PPS.
This story just gets better and better!! Those two are so damn adorable and hot and sexy!! I love what you’re doing with my beloved Danish so just keep it up. And I’ll keep reading.
OMG, you are writing faster than I can read. But I am not complaining that your post twice a day. I am actually elated to be able to read more of your wonderful story. My concern is Danish fiction drought. In late July and early August, there were days when there wasn’t any Danish fics at all. So I thought if you could spread out the posts a bit, at least there will be at least one Danish post a day or 2. Believe me, I too can never have enough Danish. It is just a suggestion. You are the author and please feel free to post whenever. As for this chapter, I absolutely love it. Helena is underrated on the show. I appreciate her genuine friendship with Alice. The show could have elaborate further. Helena is generous, caring, refined and most of all honest. You are right on the dot with those two BBFs. As for Ms. Dana, I was shocked that she made her move on Alice in this chapter. I did not expect Dana to be so forward with Alice in the Cabana. All along I was wondering when they would start making out seriously. I love your humor and the story is simply fantastic. I hope you will go with a happier Danish version. Although a little angst here and there will be all right too. But definitely have a happy ending. We had enough nastiness on the show. Thank you again for writing. I will be waiting for your next post. p.s. It took me over 45 mins to write this comment. I just don’t know how you writers do the things you do. Hats off to all you writers.
there are like 45,000 things i want to say about this. this is so cute, we haven’t had a new danish story in awhile, so i am glad you finally rented the seasons and got the lword bug. but most importantly – i’m glad you decided to write. i love the progression of the story – it is very natural. also the interaction between all of the characters, especially alice and dana is so natural as well. and the story and the dialogue are so very witty and smart. my favorite line was in the 2nd post (i think) with the “you just spelled cosy with an s you dirty brit” or whatever. so funny. i have lots of british friends from work and that is so typical of our conversations. lastly – obviously you are a classic rock fan. love it. and i love all the led zeppelin references. all in all – great job, thanks for posting so many, that are so long, so quickly. dana and alice are super cute and so is this story. i think i will reread it now. post soon – cheers mate.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you did it again just left it and i really really want to keep reading! you had this posted before i came home from work and for that i love you!lol i think this story is great and i hope you continue it and post it as quick as you have been!
Danish stories are few and dr between. This is brilliant though. ADx

Another great chapter – thanks. I love how you’re portraying both Alice and Dana in this story and I agree their interaction comes over as very natural. As far as which direction to go in, a little angst is fine but please don’t go too far down the angst path. We’ve got reruns going on in the UK at the moment of season 3, so we need lots of happy Danish to counteract the sadness!
nice… I like your story a lot! U get a five star rate! Dana doesn’t seem to shy in this one, and I’m loving it
