Alice: “I guess like most things… that are right in front of your eyes, y – you don’t… see just how wonderful they are, until they’re gone.”  You just don’t know, Dana.  “Um… Tonya… um… you are the luckiest… woman… on earth.”  I wish I have what you have.  Alice thinks sadly to herself.  ”To my friend… What can I say? Um… Congratulations.”  Just say it.  *****.  She’ll know it’s deeper than they all think.  ”I love you.”  I love you more than you’ll ever know.  I love you so much that I’ll have to let you go.  There.  I’ve said it, I’ve decided because apparently she’s staying w/ Tonya.  It’s unfair of me to make her decide.  She walks away, a bit embarrassed, but so sad.   
Dana:  Oh God.  She loves me.  *****.  I know.  I know.  I love you too.  But, I can’t.  I just can’t.  Not right now.  This is so hard.  We can’t.  There’s so much going on.  She looks at Alice and feels so sad that she can’t go after her and hold her.  Can’t comfort her and tell her she feels the same.  Her heart feels so heavy because she knows this is killing Alice.  Just the way Alice looks at her, makes her melt, but this time it hurt.  It hurt like ***** that she was doing this to Alice.  But, she couldn’t.  There’s so much going on w/ Tonya.  How the ***** was she going to get out of it?  She didn’t know, but this sadness deep inside her was for Alice because she knew she was hurting her by staying with Tonya.  She knows she wants to be with Alice, but she’s made commitments and she doesn’t know how to break it.  It not only involves her career, but her parent’s blessing, and this dang party. 
Alice:  Ok, this is enough torture for one night.  I have to go and think.  
On her drive home, her mind is spinning.  Flashbacks of their night keep creeping into her head.  It meant everything to her, but it sure felt like Dana felt the same.  She finally reaches her place, and like a zombie, she goes straight to the kitchen, grabs a bottle of wine, and starts a bath.  She needs to relax.  Her mind is making her crazy.  So much going on.  She lit some candles, put on her saddest cd she’s ever made, and gets in her bath and closes her eyes…
Dana is thinking about Alice on their whole drive home.  She’s worried that these last 2 nights have gotten to her.  She needs to see her.  What should I say?  She calls Alice, but Alice left her phone in her room.  She just wanted to relax with no interruptions.  She can feel Alice hurting.  She knows that Alice is sad.  She needs to see her.  Tonya can tell something’s on Dana’s mind.  She asks her what’s wrong, and Dana tells her that she’s worried about Alice.  That Alice is going through something and she needs to see her.  Tonya, although upset, understands that and tells Dana to talk to Alice.  Dana is shocked as ***** and thanks Tonya for understanding.  She heads off to see Alice.
