Alice woke up at a little after seven the next morning to find that Dana had already left for her walk, but had left a note on her pillow. Socks was currently laying on it, watching her with an expectant expression. Smiling, Alice picked the note up and then thought better of things and pet Socks for a few minutes. She put her glasses on before reading, and grinned when she realized that it was basically just the lyrics to Ben Folds’ The Luckiest. Still, it was cute.
Alice,
I know you hate it when I leave and don’t leave a note for you, so…here goes. I’m sorry, I’m just horrible at this sort of thing, but I wanted to thank you for last night. And for everything lately, you’ve been wonderful and I love having you in my life. Okay I’m horrible at this kind of thing, so I’ll just put lyrics in this instead. Sorry! Anyway, I know you’ve got things to do today, so if you’re gone by the time I get back, have a good day and remember that I love you more than I ever thought I’d love anyone. I know I didn’t write these, but they’re pretty damn close to how I feel about you. See if you can’t guess the song, miss Radio Personality. I really do love you, baby.
I don’t get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls
Brought me here
And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday
And I know
That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest
What if I’d been born fifty years before you
In a house on a street where you lived?
Maybe I’d be outside as you passed on your bike
Would I know?
And in a white sea of eyes
I see one pair that I recognize
And I know
That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest
I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you
Next door there’s an old man who lived to his nineties
And one day passed away in his sleep
And his wife; she stayed for a couple of days
And passed away
I’m sorry, I know that’s a strange way to tell you that I know we belong
That I know

Once again you handled the conversation between the girls perfectly. They are both working so hard to be supportive and also realize that there are many more conversations yet to be had. I also like how Dana is becoming a sounding board for her other friends — very realistic. Your take on Dana’s reconstruction is very interesting. I was expecting her to say she was going to get both done. I really love this story and look forward to future chapters. Thanks, MT!
More lovely Danish that’s spot on characterwise and really loved how you developed the reconstruction story and their separate opinions on the subject. Well Done :D
Wow! I didn’t expect Dana to consider removing the other breast…You caught me there! Think twice over it, Danaaa!! Boobs are great!!and you used to thank God for yours, remember? Please MT, have her make a pros and cons list; you know, all that breast-feeding and nipple-confidence stuff on the left side versus all that ….uhmmmm….uhmmm(nothing whatsoever?) on the right side… PPS!
Okay first I had to chuckle at your semi plagerism in Dana’s talk with Shane. You didn’t think I’d miss that did you?! I am still trying to envision Dana with an afro of sorts and it throws me off everytime you mention her hair, but I need to stay in check. The breast reconstruction vs. removal has me in a quandry. I agree that she needs to think about all aspects thoroughly before making any decision. Either way it’s interesting to see the situation being discussed between Alice and Dana. Alice is a great girlfriend and it’s nice to see her being so supportive of Dana whatever she may decide. Lots of little twists in this chapter, what happens next?!
First I love the letter followed by the lyrics, then picking her up on her walk with the energy bar and apple. I was touched by the sweetness and thoughtfulness. I don’t usually like cats, but socks seemed have developed an adorable personality. For a change, D was helping out S. I like the role reversal! And you had to throw in these lines, “would you rather have never met your brother… would you rather I’d never been your friend… easier that way.” I thought those lines were one of the best wisdom the show had presented. In the old days, D would never tell A what she was thinking if the topic was really difficult. I am so thrilled to see the change in her telling A about the reconstructive/removal surgery. I think you are very brave in addressing this issue. Either way, I think A was sincere in letting D decide what would suit her best. I can’t imagine A loving D any less without any breasts. Me too, thank you for not letting the discussion became “a massive blow up”. They sure had grown. For the nth times, I love this story and the way you write it, just beautiful and moving. Thank you MT.
ooooh how exciting can’t wait for that chapter lol you rock so does you :) great job!!
I smiled when I saw “the Luckiest”. It’s my favorite song! hehe I’m loving the communication, I wish I’m good at that :) I think Shane having Shay was a good thing. It was good for the both of them and I don’t think Gabe’ll be a good father on his own for Shay, “example-wise”. Thanks for this wonderful chapter MT. I hope you update soon hehe:D
hey, I can’t even imagine what it must feel like to decide to remove the other breast instead of having a reconstruction. I gotta second what hail-danalice said, you are brave for adressing this difficult issue. Alice will love her the same way, however the decision is going to be in the end. Great update.b.
Hey you’re one of the best writers here .. but Dana with no boobs ??? please noooooooo… PPS anyway ;)
I love ‘The Luckiest’ Such a perfect love song. Great chapter.
I’m gonna have to download that song and check it out, sounds good. I’ve just been catching up on the last couple of chapters and loved it as always. Socks is sooo cute! I know that growing hair sucks, I’m trying to do it at the moment and I’m currently in the annoying afro phase. I was surprised that Dana wanted to remove her other breast, I want to find out what she will do now. Looking forward to reading more, thanks.
Great Update! I just love the way you write them! I am not a cat person, but you def write Socks to sound like a cutie! The note was a nice touch! PPS!
