"Shit Al, I really should get going. My coach is going to kill me. I totally blew off my training this morning."
"Sorry Dane. I didn’t mean to keep you so long. Get going before you have to run laps or something." Alice stated. She didn’t want Dana to leave. It had been wonderful to spend time with her, but she wasn’t going to push her either.
"Hey it’s ok…Al…I’m glad that we did this." Dana looked away, embarrassed.
Alice stood up and walked around the table, extending her good arm out to help Dana up.
"Me too Dana. Thank you." Alice wanted Dana to look at her, but the athlete was stubborn. So she pulled her into a warm hug, hoping that it would be ok. At first, Dana seemed a little stiff, but after a few moments, Alice felt Dana lightly put her arms around her, returning the hug. ‘This is nice.’ Alice thought. She didn’t want to let go, but she didn’t want to push the athlete either. So she slowly pulled away and smiled as she felt Dana pull her back tightly for a moment before letting go completely.
"So yeah. I really should get going, but maybe we could meet again on Thursday morning? Same time?" Alice smiled at Dana and her attempts to sound cool and casual.
"That would be really great Dane. I will see you Thursday."
"Ok cool. Thursday then. Bye Alice."
"Bye Dana." Alice felt her heart lighten as she watched the brunette walk out of The Planet. She watched her start down the side walk to her Subaru and then she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Alice waited in curiosity and then her heart stopped as Dana slowly turned toward her and their eyes met through the window. They just stared at one another. It was like something out of a movie. Everything around them faded and it was just the two of them, in that moment. Alice bit down on her lip as Dana slowly reached her hand up to the glass. She pressed her palm to it, never taking her eyes off of the writer. Alice felt her stomach knot up as a lump formed in her throat. She could feel Dana reaching out for her, but there was always something in the way. It was the perfect representation of their feelings and their relationship. Alice couldn’t move. Couldn’t breath. Couldn’t think. She could only watch as Dana finally smiled sadly at her and slowly let her hand fall away from the glass. She gave a weak wave and Alice could only nod her head as Dana turned again and walked off. It was a goodbye and Alice knew it. It was Dana saying goodbye to a relationship beyond friendship. When she was out of sight, Alice ran to the bathroom and cried at the love she had so carelessly thrown away. She could be friends with Dana, but she would have to live the rest of her life knowing that they could have been so much more.

Jeah me, first to leave a comment on this beautiful chapter that had me in tears yet again. That scene with the window oh man! That killed me…I’m so glad you had a nice holiday and that your writing again. I’ve missed this story. Looking forward to the tournament and of course the amazing Danish scenes that will follow without a doubt. I love how you’re telling this story and that you are taking your time. Happy Dansih in the making I can feel it. Thanks suzie for your amazing writing and I will be back for any story you may write! Luv Ya.
I don’t think they’re over either, but maybe Dana will try to let Lara in. I wonder what surprises you have up your sleeve for the tournament.
Surely they’re not over – you can’t let them be over!! Now that you are nice and relaxed after your holiday, you must bring them together once and for all – please keep this wonderful fiction going forever!!
ok gang…let me interject here…I guess I must have wrote this update a bit too hastily? because everyone seems to think that the Dana/Alice relationship is over…it’s not. Sorry if I have misslead anyone. LOL. You guys know where my heart lies :)hang in there
suze – great update. you portray alice and dana so well. i’m glad you are back from vacations. i look forward to many many posts. i love this story. can’t wait for the drama and jealousy to unfold while at the tournament.
Ok, so I’m a complete goofball, because somehow I missed your last update. I was like, wait, chapter 6? What? So of course I read both of them, and I have to say babe….DAMN! You made me laugh and cry all at the same time! It’s good to have you back! :-) By the way, glad to see that the Danish relationship isnt over. Because that would just be very very sad, and I would have to come find you and slap you upside the head. He he. Love ya!
Enjoying this fan fic is a complete understatement. I would go so far as to say I adore it, although I’d adore it more if there was a little more Danish action (hint hint). My fics are currently in the process of being written, I’m struggling because I really had the attention span of a two year old. But please post soon, it’s just an awsome story.
So glad that you’re back, it felt like forever since you had last posted, even though I’m sure that’s an exaggeration:) Anyways, it was nice to see Dana and Alice at least talking again, but the tournament sounds like it’s going to be very interesting. Poor Alice:( I loved this chap and I can’t wait for the next!
whoa! the last time i was here you were just at chap 1 lol and i was smitten with this wonderful story but you have really out done yourself! and really glad that you have! lol I’m all caught up been doing that lately with everyones stories lol got a long way to go but :Sigh: words words you just rock! and ty ty ty for sticking with this story i really do love it! :) Cant wait for your next post!!
Hey Suze.. another great chapter! Alice and Dana slowly building their friendship back up and feeling their emotions was very real. The window scene was very intense [loved it]. I took it that Dana was trying to convince herself that the relationship was over by expressing a goodbye..but in her heart Dana knows that she can never truly deny her love for Alice!! The Danish path never runs smooth and i expect there is more confusion, drama,jealousy…etc to come in this wonderful story,lol. Post very soon babe. Thanks.
Aww, so sweet and get heartbreaking. Love the story, please post again soon. xx
I’m glad I made you laugh, it nice to know I can do something in return for your wonderful writing. :D And may I add one thing to your summary? One true love…and that’s what Dana and Alice are that to each other. Dana will figure out why it’s not working with Lara, she is not Alice. And I know everybody has already said something about it, but I loved the window-scene (made me think of the scene in Romeo + Juliet). So I’ll be waiting until you have picked up on my hint. ;)
Sorry for not posting earlier, ive been away on holiday (with my new wife of course lol) anyway great chap again, i feel so sorry for heartbroken alice, please fix it soon. Yay a gush reunion, I’m sure me and the wife could find the time in our busy schedules( consisting of staying in bed most days *winks*) to make it to the party. LOL xxxx
