Shane was ambulatory before Alice the next morning. She let herself into Alice’s suite and lay down across the bottom of the bed before falling back into a light slumber.
Dana got up at her usual, early hour. She checked all the overnight correspondence and found nothing that was urgent. That out of the way, she went to check on Alice — pleased that she would be able to let her sleep in a bit. At first, she wondered if Alice had gotten a dog. Once her eyes adjusted to the light, she realized it was Shane.
“Shane!” Dana whispered as loudly as she felt she could without waking Alice. “What the hell?”
“Relax.” Shame mumbled. “I got in late after the staff left for the night. I’m not sure they know I’m here and coffee and food always show up in Alice’s room. I do this all the time.”
“I don’t want you waking Alice.” Dana said with a warning tone to her voice.
“Dude. You’re the one making noise. I am lying here peacefully.”
“I want you out of here. Come on. We’ll get you to your room and I’ll make sure you get coffee.” Shane reluctantly got out of the bed and Dana moved quickly to assist her when it looked like the other woman might topple over.
“Coffee and grease is what I need.”
“Check.”
They made their way back to Shane’s suite and Dana called the kitchen to request coffee for Shane and also an assortment of hot breakfast food. If Shane thought her stomach could handle it, who was Dana to say no.
She was about to leave when Shane called her back.
“Do you need to run? I wouldn’t mind having some company.”
“I didn’t think you were a morning person.” As Dana hesitated in her exit.
“I’m not. I am just jet lagged. Trust me: tomorrow you will not see me before noon.” Dana gave a smile.
“Well… My boss is pretty much unconscious right now anyway.” Dana said with a grin as she sat in one of the chairs.
Shane may have been hung-over, but, she was not going to let the opportunity to talk to Dana alone go past. She knew that both Dana and Alice needed to get beyond the stupid reasons to not be together and just be together. Everything else would work itself out.

I wasn’t suppose to read this because I need to get ready for bed. Just when I was ready to shut down the computer, you posted. This story is too addicting and I cannot help myself. I must have been in the fog, not until tonight I realize how isolated they were living on “the island”. All of a sudden, I just want to yell out, “the plane, the plane.” It is a fantasy after all. lol. Thanks for thinking so highly of me as a writer. But I cannot write if my life depends on it. However, I can do some research for AJ and come up with the best model of iron current available. Do we have to fill out any Stranton Enterprise acquisition form? I believe the stores will offer a bigger discount when ordering large quantity. (more laughs). Back to this. I am so happy that I read it. Love the interaction between AlShaDane. The “hopefully-future-lover” was very cute in this chapter being all motherly and with the light bulb over her head. You a doing a fantastic job with this. btw, at the very end, about Shane’s “a week”, would that be the counting in New York time, as in “a NY minute”? That will only be a day or 2 the most as compared to the rest of the world. I am so impatient… I know. THANK YOU so VERY VERY MUCH!!! Excellent post!!!!
Oh no you dont HF, you better stay out of the little commenting waR…*evil laugh*…Seeing as how i am later than usual at commenting on this story Goose, i pretty much have to echo what everyone else said. The dog thing was hilariouSSss, Shane wanting to place bets on the ‘getting togetherness’ HD with the new york minute thingy was pretty good(LMAO HD)….No worries on the shoes thing, i take my boots off at the door :-D. Excellent job QOG, thank you so muchhhhh for my ending to a LONG day. Much love my buddy.
Great Update!So much has already been said so I’ll just say ditto to everything above. If only I would have left work on time I would have beaten AJ… sigh… next time…
Awww yay, I love Shane so much. And Danish too. This whole story is just incredible and cute and hilarious and touching. I apologize for not being more articulate, but that’s all I can come up with. lol. Heart this and heart you for writing it.
Guess who :D lol and yet agen AWW lol i loved this chapter and loved the interaction between the three. Have to say funny agen with Dana thinking shane was a dog and then tellin her to get out like she was a little kid, did make me giggle :) lol.

MG,I about fell out of my chair when i saw the HDD “It’s like a cabbage patch with some sprinkler and little moonwalk.” Great chapter sweetie LOVED the AlShaDane and Dana thought Al had a dog good one! Can’t wait for your next update,I am sure it will be gr8!! With that said I am HDDing out the door!! U rock!! PPS
I am with Shane, I hope its only a week!! Keep it coming!!
For obvious reasons I loved this chap :D…but stick cause you have converted me with your Danish…brilliant interplay with the three….hmm wouldn’t mind having Shane at the end of my bed, and wouldn’t think she was a dog
I was still tickled by “At first, she wondered if Alice had gotten a dog,” when I read your earily familiar description of Alice’s birthday dance. OMG I laughed at that one! I give them less than a week, by the way, assuming you post again sometime in the next six days. Shane’s Yoda-ness was dead on…guide Dana for now, without her necessarily knowing it…talk when there’s something to talk about. Great as always Goose. Can’t wait for the next installment, even if it means that Dana gains experience with someone else!
I may go into shock. I have beaten JAX to one of your posts. Anyway. I am still loving it. I ended up not staying home last night. But I will be tonight. Anywho anyway. I love the story. It has been incredible and is still getting better.
