All I Need (chapter 8)
Alice slipped off her shoes, and climbed into the empty spot next to Kerry. She gently took the pillow from the brunette, and placed it behind her head. After situating herself, Alice opened her arms, and invited Kerry to rest her head on her shoulder. Accepting the invitation she moved into Alice’s embrace, feeling the blonde’s grip tighten around her, she allowed her body to relax.
Kerry closed her eyes; “I lost a little boy today.” The doctor paused. The silence allowed her to listen to the steady rhythm of Alice’s heart. “He was nine and had been battling leukemia for almost half his life. Everybody kept telling me it was hopeless, that his tiny body just couldn’t fight off the cancer, but I never once let myself think that, because I wanted to make sure that when he looked into my eyes he saw how much I believed in his strength.” Kerry shifted in Alice’s arms. The tears in her eyes began to sting, but not a single fell upon her cheek. “I’m a doctor, and it’s my job to save people, but when I can’t I’m not suppose show the pain, and I don’t, because it’s my responsibility to take care of the family, but each time one of my patients dies I feel as though I lose a tiny piece of myself, and sometimes I’m scared that by the time I reach fifty I’m just going to be this hollow shell walking around.”
Alice carefully stroked Kerry’s dark, brown hair while listening to the doctor reveal what seemed to be one of her biggest fears. Placing a soft kiss on top of Kerry’s head, Alice tenderly moved her, so she could look directly into her eyes. “I don’t know what it’s like to hold somebody’s life in my hands and I can’t pretend that I understand the pain of losing that person, but even though you have to be strong while your at the hospital there is no rule that says you can’t show me the tears you’re fighting not to shed.”
“If I give into my emotions I won’t be able to do my job, and that’s why I’m scared one day I won’t even have those feelings to battle.”

shit. i really dont want kerry to get hurt. im not sure how you’re going to fenagle this one…
damn…that was really emotional. and fantastic. i can feel alice’s pain and dana’s desperation. what a situation. can’t wait to see how it plays out, you’re brilliant!
Ouch, that was pretty painful for all three of them, but still such a great update! Also congratulations on the job, I just hope it doesn’t prevent you from updating anytime soon, lol. Please post soon:)
oh my god how could you stop there?? i hope you will post soon… i’m hooked on the lezbo drama! amazing work!
Excellent chapter, keep it up. Its heartwrenching but addictive. Lets hope your new job doesnt get in the way of your posts – congrats by the way xxx
Great update – can’t wait to see what happens next. Obviously my biggest hope if that Alice & Dana get together again and soon.
ahhhh well this is hard to fathom they were back literally where they started…back in the bathroom!!
cana is right if alice had chose to let go them there would still be some pain and she would still be in love with dana but only eought to then be able to love someone else but alice is holding on to dana without thinking about it she has told dana her true feeling for kerry but she has not told kerry yet she needs to take a break from both of them so she can make up her mind of who she really wants please post soon great update
hey, great update! lots of angst – poor Kerry, i admit i’m starting to like her too… but not as much as Danish! Look forward to the next installment, it’s good that Al and Dana have been able to be honest about their feelings but I hope that they can resolve their issues soon :) congratulations on the new job!
Im really likin the way Danish are openly taking about their feelings with each other.. even when they are both hurting!! I feel a bit sorry for Kerry because deep down i think she knows that Dana is Alices true love, but because she is so in love with Alice herself she will try to bury it within and try to ignore it. Great story! keep it up. Oh and congrats on the new job!!
well, what else can I say than: excellent. that’s what it is. excellent. keep writing. please.
I must say Danish 103, your right that cop was bored, that’s a sh*&%%y excuse to pull someone over (on behalf of my profession I apologize), hope ya didn’t get an outrageous ticket. That’s lame. Congrat’s on the job!! This is my first time writitng ya, I’m one of those too busy ‘silent readers’ love your fic though. Well, my thoughts, I do think Alice needs some time alone as well. I think that Dana should not back down, but be cautious of her actions, they tend to push Alice further away. I hope they at least can have one good sexy night together, but I’ll take what I can get. Thanx for the posts!! Cheers! Aidan.
Lovely work. I’m really interested to see how all this Danish tension will be fixed… and I’m grudgingly becoming somewhat fond of Kerry so it will be heartbreaking either way. Congrats on your job as well! After that hell of a day you deserve it!
That was one bored cop! But one good thing came out of all the crap that happened, you’ve got the job! Congratulation.s :D This chapter was funny. Lol@ the scene where AlShaDane were bickering over Flavor of Love and Alice ‘comparing’ Dana to a puppy. (In some way she does have a point, Dana will be following her like a puppy.) Why is love always that complicated? I can imagine the struggle Alice is going through. I loved the role reversal, Dana dropping the line ‘Then come back to me.’ Can’t wait to see how you will bring back my two fav girls together.
Danish and bathrooms a lethal combination! They love eachother so much but they both need their space right now. I do feel bad for Kerry but I think deep down she knows that she will never get all of Alice’s heart. Great update and congrats on the new job.
Wow … I just read all 8 chapters in one sitting & I’m really enjoying this fic … eagerly anticipating another update … hopefully soon. I loved the line “Is this close enough? Can you feel the pain you caused me from this position, because I can’t get away from it.” Something about it just resonated with me. Keep up the good work.
