"Are you sure you want me to be here for this?" Dana said following me into the complex.
I immediately felt eyes on me. I felt their dirty looks boring into my back.
"They won’t kill me if you’re with me," I said softly.
"Why are they looking at you like that?" Dana said with an annoyed expression, "fucking racists."
I sighed deeply as we reached the elevator and I said, "it only gets worse from here."
"You’re so brave, Bette," Dana said smiling and grabbing my shoulder affectionately. When the dirty looks became directed at her for touching me, I saw her shifting uncomfortably. I smiled at her bravery and grabbed her hand. There were gasps all around us and she smiled at me.
"Don’t be afraid to express yourself Dana," I said as I pressed the number 7 on the elevator, "don’t hide who you are and fight for what you think is rightfully yours."
"You’re a really good friend Bette, ever since you’ve joined the group we’ve gotten better," Dana said, "I know the group is broken up and shit right now, but we would have fucking killed each other if it weren’t for you. And I know in the long run you will be the one who brings us all together."
"I don’t think so, Dana," I said as we exited the elevator, "you have the purest heart of them all in the group. The worst fights are held back when you’re around because everybody loves you."
"Aww no!" Dana said blushing.
I laughed at her cuteness and knocked on the door. I couldn’t help but feel nervous at the situation I was currently in, but Bette Porter was never one to back down.
I heard her sweet voice on the other end saying, "coming," and I forgot to breathe.
Dana squeezed my shoulder encouragingly as the door swung open and Tina stood at the doorway, eyes wide in surprise.
"Bette," Tina breathed, "Dana, what are you doing here?"
"Taking a risk," I said indignantly, "look Tina, we’ve been together for so many months and I love you. You love me too I see it in your eyes! It’s killing me that you’re still with this Henry guy hiding in the closet. I need you Tina, leave him and come be with me."

Wow, Dana dies again… it still sucks. Can’t wait for the end to see if Tina has some guts to leave Henry.
Not you too?!!…why killed Dana?…..And the riot it’s so “real”.. And the way Tasha said “Dr King was shot”…”He was shot in the head”.. Feeling the pain how Bette absorbed the news.. ..yeah Dana is the glue.. even in the show, things were different when Dana died. PPS ..
finally a chapter when tina and bette arent ending up together! all the happy endings are becoming too boring anyways!!! another thing: of course dana had to die: a) she wasn’t out b) she wasn’t a “woman of colour” c) she isn’t the love of the main character, as a result she is the perfect victim if you are following a classical storyline.
Geez… Why Dana must be killed… again?!? :-( anyway nice to read this as a reminder of the past and to appreciate more on what we have.. Equality!
Oh damn this is sad and why Dana have to die?, Tina need to leave hendick and go to Bette. Please post more, thanks!
Really,really sad chapter.Poor Dana.Thank you for the update.
I cried when dana died again! but with all the drama I’m still concerned about Tina, is she fine, after the confrontation between Bette and Henry I thought he may hurt her? poor Bette, she lost her love and Best friend in one day :(thanks for the story but looking forward for the update ;D
