Boundary Between Fear and Love – 8
“Nice try, you can see it now, that’s why you know what it is. Oh, and I told you.”
“No seriously, it smells really good. I’m starving. Can we eat?”
She really is sweet. If I totally misidentified food, I would not be so generous as to actually eat it.
“Well the salad looks
and smells like salad, so why don’t we start with that.” I motion for
her to sit down, put the salad on the table and join her.
“Al, is this country music?”
“Yeah, someone got me hooked on it this week. Can you believe it?”
“Actually no, but this is such a great song.” She says smiling at me. How I love that smile.
“It really is. I heard it and had to get it. It just reminded me of us.”
She gets up from the
table and walks over to me. She leans down and kisses me softly. As she
is getting back up she whispers in my ear, “I already fell in love with
you.”
For like the
umpteenth time since I’ve been with Dana, I am totally at a loss for
words or coherent thought. It seems to be a new trend. I figure I
should ask her a question to take the heat off of the fact that I can’t
really speak to well.
“So how was the tournament?”
“It was great Alice.
I love the charity events. They are so much more fun. You can still be
serious and play well, but it isn’t all competitive and you can have
fun with the other players.”
She’s telling me
about the trip. I’m not sure exactly what she’s saying, because to be
honest, I’m not paying attention. I’m too lost in watching her. Her
face is so animated and excited. Her hands are flailing about and she
is just, Dana. And I absolutely love it.
I know that we have a
lot to work out. We seriously need to talk and get ourselves on a
better foundation. But I can’t imagine my life without her. And that
thought in and of itself is strange enough, but that I want to embrace
that and not run from it amazes me. Sometimes a risk is just worth it.
“Yeah, of course I’m listening. Go on, she was telling this kid about” yeah right, listening, but I am loving it.
Lyrics – to the song – the statement that Dana whispers to Alice makes much more sense if you know them…ooops
You want to know, where we go from here
So many roads, but none that seem clear
If what we have enough, to last a whole life through?
Who knows, baby who knows
So you’re asking me, what do we do
Cause time moves so fast and the chances seem so few
Is it too much to think, that we could have it all
Who knows, we may never know
But if I were you, I’d promise to live life for all it’s worth
Take all that you’ve been given
And leave your mark upon this earth
Trust your heart so show you everything you’ll ever need
And if I were I’d fall in love with me
So hold me close, I’ll kiss away your fears
I won’ promise the moon, but I’ll promise to be here
And what if together it gets better every day
Who knows baby, who knows
But if I were you, I’d promise to live life for all it’s worth
Take all that you’ve been given
And leave your mark upon this earth
Trust your heart to show you everything you’ll ever need
And if I were I’d fall in love with me
But if I were you, I’d promise to live life for all it’s worth
Take all that you’ve been given
And leave your mark upon this earth
Trust your heart to show you everything you’ll ever need
And if I were I’d fall in love with me
If I were I’d fall in love with me

Top update. You write Alice and Dana so well, they are so sweet together. Thanks.
:D :D :D thanks
Awww it’s sweet, it’s funny, it puts a smile on my face. I love this line – “No Dana, I’m home” says so much. *sigh*
Here’s my favorite line..“I already fell in love with you.” I’m such a sucker for a well written story.
I’ve been missing this story. Loved the update.
I am so glad you are back for the depth of wherever you were. Sweet and romantic just what we need. “still can’t handle that twang thing they do, its just unnatural” Being a past (moved)southern belle. LOL it really is real. I hear it everytime I visit relatives. And sometimes I have to remind myself they really do talk like that, and no they can’t help it. But you are right some of the music is romatic. I’m glad you started this story again. Very light compared to “Drownings” which I totally love, and check daily for. Well after all this sweet danish I don’t need breakfast I’m completely full. Deb
