    Almost Here Chapter 2

     

                ‘Where’s Carmen?’

     

                ‘She’s working.’ Shane replied. They sat down at their usual table and waved at Kit, who was busy as always. Kit acknowledged their presence with a smile. Their ‘usuals’ were brought over promptly, despite the crowd.

     

                ‘So, what made you decide to go on a holiday?’ Shane took a large sip of coffee and propped her feet up on the chair casually.

               

                ‘I was thinking the other day, Al and I haven’t really been on a vacation together before, like just the two of us. And Al’s been lamenting that she needs a break from work Europe Europe Australia Asia Woo! Antarctica!…’ Dana was trying to sort out the pamphlets by continent and stopped at a blue-green one that said ‘Classic Antarctica’. The picture below showed a bay with spectacular icebergs reflecting every colour of the rainbow. ‘I wonder if there are penguins’ Dana murmured to herself, as she opened the pamphlet.

     

                ‘Penguins?’ Shane asked in bewilderment.

     

                ‘Yeah. Alice has been gushing about Emperor Penguins ever since we watched March of the Penguins last weekend.’ Dana smiled as she recalled how the journalist had been held spell-bound, watching the screen in wide-eyed amazement all through the movie.

     

                ‘You actually went to watch that oh hi, Lara.’ Shane stopped in mid-sentence as the red-head approached their table.

     

                ‘Hey Shane. Dana, what are you looking at?’ Lara bent over to get a closer look. ‘Wow, you planning on a vacation?’ She said, realizing the entire surface area of the table was covered with travel brochures.

     

                ‘Yeah I’m thinking of going on a holiday with Alice and I’m just trying to decide on where to go. Oh and thanks for your cookies! They were great, as always. It’s amazing how you manage to make them taste so good while making sure they’re low-fat and low-sugar!’ Dana smiled at Lara, who returned the gesture.

     

                ‘It’s good you like it. I could bake more for you I mean, if you want. I just came up with some low-calorie recipes and I was just wondering if I could try them out on you.’ Lara moved from her standing bent-over position to sit down on the empty seat adjacent to Dana’s.

    1. Absolutely great story. You hit the characters head on. I hope you don’t wait over a month to post again. This story is too wonderful to let it be forgoten. Looking foward to your next update. Thanks for a well written story. Deb

    2. Haha you’re back! I was planning to drive over to your place and swat you for the delay. But you’re safe now that you’ve posted. Great update, Dana being oblivious and Alice hiding her feelings were spot on. Of course it will never be complete with Yoda. I love the agnst, bring them on!

    3. LMAO, mud-mud! Harrison and the Power Rangers figurine!? Ok, tell me which ranger? Your fic was loooonng overdue, but was definately worth the wait! Just make sure you don’t leave us hanging for much longer, otherwise ‘We’ll need dinosaur power, NOW!’ Yeah, I think I need to burn those figurines, now. Keep up the good work!

    4. Good fan-fic…I definately agree that you are hitting it spot-on with the characters and their behaviour. I hope that you’ll post back soon as I’d LOVE to continue reading your offerings! Thanks

    5. Yay, Joyce is back! Although your story has lots of angst beneath, this chapter was full of sweet Danish. Ally P, Fairy D and penguins were my favourite :). I may not be able to wait another month for next chapter.. *5*

    6. mudpie! not sure how i missed the first chapter- but apparently it’s just as well, i got to read them back to back and avoid withdrawal altogether…i LOVE this tale. you have a wonderful ear for detail and a great sense of humor. thanks for the post!

    7. Finally (I had to go back and read the first one again to remember what my doubts were!) But it was well worth waiting for. You write them really well. And indeed, “Mr P is not a THING”!

    8. Thanks all for your invaluable comments! :)
      debs: Thanks a lot. I’ve heard a lot about your fanfic! Though I haven’t read it yet, it’s right on top of my ‘must-read’ list! I will try to update ASAP.
      rbelinda18: Thanks. I hope Alice and Dana can talk this through too but… ok I shan’t give away anything. Heh. And yes, they are meant to be together! Danish forever!

      layla_gray: Jac! What can I say? I had to post, amidst all those death threats. And you wanna drive over? I’m right here waiting… Just keep your fly-swatter at home. :)
      capesquad: Thanks for your comments! I read the first few chapters of your fic and I must say it’s great!
      Anni_M: My yoda! I loved the penguins too…Well, I guess if you keep on reminding me to write in every e-mail, maybe I’ll be faster! Then again, wasn’t that what you did after Chap 1? LOL
      lenore: Thanks lenore. I think this chapter didn’t really address your doubts much… hope next chapter helps!
      danish_lvr: Thanks alot! :)
      Red: Red-red! You wanna know which ranger? Well, I would say Red Ranger Jason. (Yes I belong to the ancient Might Morphin Power Rangers era) You burning those figurines? Could you leave Yellow Ranger for me? LOL
