Washing away her tears.
—
The press was something Dana never felt comfortable dealing with and
because of that it always struck her as being supremely ironic the
person she loved and trusted above all others was a considered a part
of their ranks. Then again, from day one Alice had proven herself
different and better than her journalistic colleagues. She made it
clear within minutes that she knew Dana was gay and closeted and that
she didn’t particularly feel those facts were anywhere close to being worthy
of appearing in the written word much less presented as news.
Once she had gotten past her denial about having this disease, Dana
found herself contemplating the idea of using her celebrity to promote
public education about breast cancer. With the help of her agent,
doctor, and a few of Alice’s contacts she had spoken with several
groups and was in the process of determining which one she felt her
personality was best suited towards and would like to form a
professional relationship with.
That being the case, Dana hadn’t arranged a press conference for
discussing her current health condition. After her poor performance in
the charity tournament for the Gulf Coast her agent had released a
statement saying that she was suffering from exhaustion and any further
medical diagnoses had yet to be determined by her doctors. Sports
journalism being a fairly mild and friendly community which had happily
allowed Dana to remain in the closet for years with minimal issues,
they took the statement at face value though many if not all thought
there was something more to the story. But having reported on Dana and
her performance in tennis since she was sixteen, most were content to
wait to hear the news come directly from her.
Most but not all.
Walking out of the hospital, feeling in very high spirits because she
was flanked on her left by Alice and her right by Howie and both were
doing their best to out funny the other, Dana was blindsided by the
sudden appearance of a man in an overly flashy blue suit followed by
another far plainer man hefting a camera on his shoulder. The bright
light of the camera caused her to squint and shade her eyes while the
man in the blue suit rattled off question after question. Why was she
at the hospital? How could she be with her ex which she had such a
public break up with? What did it mean that they were together again?
Did she have anything to say about Alice’s statements on the radio
about the blonde’s prescription drug abuse after their relationship ended? Was
she being treated for that too? If not, what was she here for? Is she
denying drugs were responsible for her poor performance in the last
tournament?

OK – I just read the first chapter and this one – dreiser – awesome. truly. funny, sweet, sad, hopeful and bittersweet. I’d expect nothing less from you though. Very well done!
That was beautiful. Awesome writing as usual. Great way to end that chapter. Looking forward to the next.
Absolute perfection. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again no doubt, but your writing is amazing. And I’m not just talking about the grammar, which is a big pet-peeve of mine, but I’m talking about the way you portray and characterize each character to form. You perfectly write and vocalize Alice and Dana (no doubt because of your love for the characters), but you also have a good sense for portraying all of the others. I know you love Helena, as do I, and I like how you are forming her as she’ll hopefully be portrayed in S3 (although I do like snarky Helena too!). I know where this story is heading, mainly from checking in at your journal for updates, and I’m still excited about it because of how it’s written. Anyway, long-winded I know, but I have to give accolades to your talent.
Awww i am soo inlove with this story! The way you write the characters is spot on! This chapter was just amazing! Please update soon
Thank you for this story. Yours are stories I can read over and over again and always love. Perfect.
Simply Awsome, I hope the actual season of Alice and Dana’s relationship is at least half as good as it is in your story, keep up the great work!!
That was great. Your writing is amazing. I love angst and there was enough to go around in this chapter. Their love confession was…beautiful. Great job.
I have read it more than one time and I found more and more things that I like in your story. I said before but danish has unbelieveble writers, thanks.
Hiya, I’m a silent lurker, BUT your stuff is great…the only other person here with as much talent to hold my attention is Ms.Layla_Gray, but you capture the couple like no one esle…keep it up and you have another fan here….Peace.
IC created the characters, but I am amazed by how well you “get” them. I’m sitting here at my desk feeling happy because Alice and Dana were able to admit their feelings for each other. At the same time there is a bittersweet feeling because there is a good chance that the overall ending of the story will not be happy. It’s sad that two people who were so well suited for each other and so in love had to waste so much time. But it makes for a great story for us. I will bide my time re-reading the first two parts until you post again. Thanks for another wonderful story.
I usually lurk, but I just had to comment. Beautiful. Your writing is simply beautiful. The character development, the story development, I feel more like a voyeur than a reader!! Thank you!
Amazing! I had butterflies in my stomach the entire time I read this story. You write Alice and Dana beautifully. I love Alice’s comments like, “you’re such a girl and yet so helpless about girly things” and Alice being so sweet with Dana while she was sick in the bathroom. Their thoughts and fears which you expressed, are things that Eileen and her writers failed to say in Season 2. I’ve always loved the playful and sarcastic aspect of their relationship- very well written. I can’t wait till your next update!
i had chills the entire time of reading this story. It was amazing the way you wrote about al and dane’s love and i so hope beyond hope that you write more. Please post soon
wow that was amazing! please post soon!
this is great I am just catching up so I hope that u have already post again
