Alice took special care when getting ready for this meeting. She showered, dressed smartly, and put her contacts in this morning. Sadly, these were things that did not always happen over the previous months. She wanted to look as much like “old Alice” as possible.
It took nearly everything Alice had to step into the place that had been a second home for so many years. Now it felt like the lion’s den. In part, this was due to the chef – Lara Perkins. That was the woman who her girlfriend left her for. The bigger part was because of what an ass she had made of herself in front of all her friends.
She took another moment to collect her thoughts and opened the door.
It killed Alice just a little bit more to see the looks on her friend’s – on her family’s – faces when she walked into The Planet. The last time she was there she made a scene. That had been the norm and she was determined to not let it happen again. Of course, her friends did not know what to expect from her anymore.
Alice has been off all but one of the pills for a week and felt more like herself than she had since the breakup. That being said, she really wished she had not flushed all the other pills. Being heavily medicated might make this easier.
Alice was able to at least identify during the last month that she was drug seeking to try to find the right combination of pills to make everything better. In a burst of lucidity, she got a new doctor that was able to wean her off most of the pills and was closely monitoring the dosage of the last one. The doctor also recommended therapy, but, Alice was not ready to go to that level of introspection, yet. Not until she felt more like herself.
Alice approached the table slowly and took a quick survey of the faces of her closest and dearest friends. How did it get this bad? Bette: Fury. Tina: Pity mixed with disappointment. Shane: Wary. And Dana? Panic and fear.
Fuck.
“Mind if I take a seat?” Alice asked. She managed to do so without making eye contact with anyone.

*picks up a spoon and stabs Lara in the eye* YOU BACK OFF ALICE.sorry I always wanted to do that. Thanks magoose for a great story. Love it
Oh a fantastic start, please post soon!!
MaGoose, I am thrilled to see your story and impressed by your courage to write. Overtime, I have read the comments you left on different Danish stories and found you insightful. As proven here in this first chapter of “Closure”, you have demonstrated that your ability to describe A’s feeling beautifully. I am especially touched reading page 3 and sympathize deeply for A. There is no reason for you to doubt the delivery of this story and I am positive that you will give us an awesome story. Looking forward to many many more updates. Thank you. p.s. I totally agree with HF’s comment.
This is off to a really good start
This is a good start. I’m curious to know how different Alice is and whether or not it’s a “good” different. Please post soon.

I’m SO sorry I didn’t comment on this sooner. I love it, although I think the group owes Alice an apology for the way they treated her just as much as she owes them one. I really hated the group in the beginning of Season 3. I know it was a tough situation, but you don’t treat your friend, who obviously needs professional help, like a nuisance and a joke. But that has nothing to do with your story, sorry! Lol. This is awesome, I’d love it if you continued. I want to know how the group reacts to Alice’s self-punishment, and I hope she sees that she really doesn’t need to feel that way. I’ve felt like that before and it breaks my heart, so you have to continue and give it a happy ending, okay? This is a great start.
hmm interesting …liking it so far :)
this totally don’t suck at all. It’s great, this is a really good start. I’ve always been a Dana fan and i know I always will but D wasn’t really good to Alice when she was on pills. Al went a bit crazy yes but she could’ve done something. Anyway, this is good. I hope to see an update soon. thanks :D
