Naturally, they were all Jackie. Alice’s real friends knew where she was and that she was not going to be answering this phone anytime soon.
The first call was from 8:30 AM: “Allie, honey, where are you? I am getting very worried. I expected you here a while ago.” At 8:30?? The morning after you beat the shit out of her?? Thought Dana. Geez. “Please call me doll and let me know where you are. I can come pick you up if needed. Just let me know. I love you very much.”
The next call was from 10:00 AM: “Alice?” Jackie’s tone was much more firm on this call. “I noticed some of your things were gone from the house. You need to get back here and let me know what is going on. Come home now.” Dana now understood what was probably in the garbage bag.
The final call had come in at 2:00 PM: Jackie’s voice was chilling. “I went by your apartment and the lock had been changed. What is going on? I thought we were a couple and we were in this together? I love you very much. You know I am the best thing that has ever happened to you. I helped you when all your friends left you by the wayside. I’m not sure how long I will still be interested and then you might be left alone again. Call me.”
She shook her head in disgust. Fucking bitch. At least this answered the questions Dana had of whether Jackie knew Alice was making a break for it.
Dana saved the messages. She wasn’t sure what Alice would want to do in the future with regards to prosecuting Jackie, but, she wanted all the ammo available that they had.
Dana went on a tour through the rest of the house. Bette and Tina did an amazing job on supplying it. Dana couldn’t think of anything they needed.
Dana gave them a call to thank them and fill them both in on Jackie’s calls. She then called Shane and let her know what was going on with Jackie. Shane had not seen her around the apartment complex but would keep an extra eye out for her.
Alice continued sleeping away on the couch.
Harrison dropped by a short while later. He had two canisters of pepper spray and two tasers for Dana. He explained how to use them and they practiced in the back yard. Harrison gave Dana a huge hug before he left and made her promise to let him know if there was anything else at all he could do.
Dana went to check on Alice and found that she was awake and just laying on the sofa on her stomach. Dana went over and knelt in front of her. She carefully moved the hair out of Alice’s eyes.
“How are you doing?”
“I don’t know, Dane. I just don’t know. I feel lost.” Alice started crying. Dana helped Alice to a seating position, sat on the sofa and gently maneuvered Alice so she was in her arms.
“I’m here with you, Al. I’m not going anywhere. We’ll get through this together.” Dana held Alice until her tears slowed. Dana turned on some mindless television and then went to the kitchen to make them both a salad and sandwiches for dinner.
Alice was nearly falling asleep during dinner. She had taken the other pills that Abby had prescribed and they were hitting her hard. Dana cleared the dishes and came back to find Alice resting her head on the table.
“Alice? Let me help you get up to bed.” She knelt down next to the writer.
“Gruphmpf.” Came the mumbled reply from Alice. Dana had to smile. That was so typical of sleepy Alice.
“Honey? Put your arms around my neck.” Alice reached out and locked her arms behind the athlete’s neck. Dana was very careful not to touch Alice’s back as she easily lifted her up and carried her to the bedroom. “Come on, sleepy. I got you.” Alice snuggled into the safe haven of Dana’s arms.
Dana carried Alice to her bedroom and tenderly laid her down on the bed. Alice immediately curled up and fell back into a deep sleep.
Dana gave her a kiss on the cheek and said “Sleep well, baby.”

it pisses me off that someone would do this to another person! Sighs but as a good writer it is your job invoke these type of emotions to kudos to you for doing that at least in me,lol. I never tire of dana’s love for aliceor her friends. in fact i wish dana had more time on the show and they developed her character more than her just coming as a pro tennis player.
Awww, I want a Dana to take care of me since I’m depressed. Can you supply me one? Just for a day or so, I promise. I’ll give her back. And please don’t feel bad, you’re doing an incredible job! I’m just a sap who’s in love with a fictional piece of adorable named Alice, that’s all. Happy New Year babe!
Really enjoyed this chap. My first thought would have been to delete the messages to save Al any pain, but it’s true that you really need documentation in domestic cases….and remembering Harrison in the show I was quite amused picturing him teaching Dana how to use a taser :) Happy New Years to you (officially 24 mins ago where I am and dang I gotta work at 9am)
Very believable. I can very easily say that this is how a real life crisis can be handled. The safe house, the locks, the packing. A doctor prescribing a slight sedative and antibiotic is very real to help ease the pain and give the patient some sleep. And Alice needs all the rest she can get. Jackie’s third call, at 2pm, was ridiculous. She came off like if Alice doesn’t come back to her, on a leash, she’ll just leave and Alice’ll be left all alone. SHE IS NEVER ALONE You brain dead bitch!
Im glad Dana is there for my sweet Alice. Still makes me mad as hell what Jackie did,when is the gang going to meet up with this awful person? Thanks again for writting this story!!PPSHave a healthy 2008!!!
SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG TO COMMENT. I was sleeping till like 4 pm. So now im all caught up. I really love Dana. I want her to be my best friend. I’m not saying I don’t want to do nasty good things to her. But anyway. I love you MAGOOSE you are great. Love the story.Weapon of the day is…a steel pole
Awwwwwwwwww…awwwwwwwwww, just lots of sweet awwnes for that chapter. Sorry I’m like last to comment, my internets been down but another lovely chapter. Jackie needs that phone stuck where the sun don’t shine. pps! Happy New Year xxxx
To comment after partying all night is a challenge but I don’t want to wait †ll the morning because I love this story. MaGoose, another excellent chapter. Thank you Harrison for the pepper spray and tasers. If needed there are screwdriver and crow bar too supplied by HF. not to forget all the baseball bats and tennis racquets offered by the other readers.I am very touched by D’s tenderness and care. The messages made me sick to the stomach. (I wonder if it had to do with the extra drinks consumed earlier.) From the looks of things, A would need all the rest she could get. Poor A! Thank you for letting the gang worked together to protect her. MaGoose, you are really doing a fantastic job with this story. Thank you and Happy New Year!
What I been thing of doing to Jackie,was the same thing she did to Alice. Then I would have been a Jackie. So I still like the lrgal way. If she is stupid enough to try to hurt Alice again. Let them all do thier thing A good old wood shed a&% kicking,whooping. thanks Hey Lady Happy New year to you and your/ thanks
sweet!!!!!!! dana is doing such a great job..she loves her so much i can’t wait till they get back together :)alice deserves so much more its sad that its come to this point but im glad shes got the gang
You continue to tell this important story so well. Reading about a physically and emotionally exhausted Alice is really difficult but it is made somewhat easier knowing that she is in the caring hands of your attentive Dana. Thanks for posting.
:)…………..yesh, Dana will protect Alice!
I love how you’ve captured Dana’s internal life during this period…so many thoughts banging around with no one to bounce them off of and at the same time keeping focused on the only thing that counts at the moment: keeping Alice safe emotionally and physically. While I suspect Al will fight both of those things when her head starts to clear and Jackie’s programming starts to kick in, I just wanted to let you know that your committment to telling such a difficult story is impressive…I know it can’t be easy on the author. Looking forward to your next…Happy 2008!
Loving this story – you are writing it so beautifully. Just wish I could get my hands on the ‘person’ who did this to Alice and live in hope that Dana gets the opportunity to show her who is boss. Look forward to more and more in 2008. Thank you from a loyal Danish fan.
