"Shane!" Lara looked over Alice’s shoulder at the door. "She’s back?"
Alice nodded. "She is. We were hoping you might be able to join us for dessert?"
Lara surveyed the kitchen. Noting the relatively few orders, she consulted the line cook. "You okay for a bit?"
He nodded. "All good. Go, eat something decadent."
Lara headed towards the office. "I need to throw on my jacket before I head out there. Care to keep me company?" She winked. Alice grinned toothily and followed close on Lara’s heels.
"Shut the door, will you?" Lara asked after they’d crossed the threshold.
Alice turned and pushed the door closed. When she turned again, she found herself face to face with Lara, who had stripped the white t-shirt off and was standing there in nothing more than a lacey white bra and her kitchen whites. "I missed you today." Lara’s eyes were locked on Alice’s lips.
"Mmm." Unconsciously Alice licked her lips, which only caused Lara to inch closer. "Me, too." Alice reached out and pulled Lara to her. At the contact, both women exhaled a little. Lara leaned down and captured Alice’s mouth, which really wasn’t difficult, as Alice was reaching up with the same goal in mind.
Alice parted her lips allowing Lara entry. Their tongues entangled, and Alice felt Lara lean into her with a contented moan. Alice’s left hand lazily rubbed small circles in the small of Lara’s back, her smooth skin fueling a persistent ache that Alice was beginning to feel between her legs. Her right hand slid around to Lara’s flat stomach and palm against skin inched up to caress the lace bound breast. Lara gasped at the contact.
A knock at the door startled both women, who sprang apart breathless. Lara grabbed her chef jacket and put it on, with an apologetic smile at Alice, who was raking her hands through her hair, with a look of intense sexual frustration.
"Yeah?" Lara called.
"Lara, it’s Terri. I brought you something to eat….you haven’t had anything since the smoothie, and I thought you might be feeling weak again after the rush."
Alice turned with a quizzical expression. "Weak again?"
Lara opened the door. "Thanks Terri. I was actually about to sit down with Alice and the others for a bite."

The beginning of this chapter compensated the slight drop of cuteness level from the last one. Damn Teri for interrupting. :P I really hope Alice will be able to figure out what’s really going on with Lara. It’s going to be a difficult, ’cause Lara ain’t sharing a lot of information with her. :( We all know how inquisitive Alice can be…I’m hoping for that characteristic to pull through. This chapter got me really worried about Lara. She’s outdoing herself. And no, I never heard of the Pipettes. I just listend to some songs. It kind of reminded me of the Grease-soundtrack (and yes I do have that one in my collection too). I think some songs could probably become one of my regulars. Ok, to add one odd music couples…Sara Bareilles and Gorillaz. But serioulsy, you schould check out the site last.fm…we are not the only ones with odd music combinations! :D
ooooooooooooh alice is all set to find out about lara now…interesting…post more soon!
if lara does not start talking to alice then she will lose her can’t wait to see what will happen next please post soon great update I love it
Wow, great update – I was pleasantly surprised to find it a little early! I love the interaction between Alice and Lara in this one – Lara wants so badly to be with Alice, but she can’t fully open up to her until she gets herself sorted out. Hopefully, she’ll let Alice help her deal with all her problems soon… of course, I’m happy to wait for that pay-off, since it adds such a great underlying tension to their relationship! I also thought the horrific nature of the dream she had was pretty realistic. Given everything that has happened between Lara and Alice, and the fact that Lara is still haunted by her grief and guilt over Dana, it makes perfect sense that she would have a nightmare like that. Can’t wait to see how all of this plays out – and, I’m sooo glad you decided to give us more than 15 chapters!
Sexcellent! So well done: now we’re privy to more of what is going on with the dream that is wigging Lara out and her reactions are starting to make more sense. But she’s got to articulate things to Alice, pronto. Maybe with the help of her therapist? So she can get herself healthy in mind and body. What a creepy thing for this poor woman to have bottled inside. But it also shows that Dana remains a key character not to be simply forgotten. I just wanted to yell to Alice at the end there “Go get her in the kitchen!” Alice is a champ with confronting that yes, something is wrong, yet she remains steadfastedly supportive by nudging Lara in the direction of opening up sooner than later. And it’s nice that she seems to do so without weirding out, thinking it’s all her fault. I’m looking forward to finding more about potential underlying causes of Lara’s nasty dream, i.e., why this is taxing her to such an extent. This Lace relationship is so textured because any problems they have individually have the potential to be dealt with in the obvious respect, caring and attraction these two have for one another. Lara, don’t mess it up now, and for the love of The L Word, don’t run AWAY! I agree with bluemini, the tension you’ve got going on with these two is awesome. Makes for such excellent reading. Yay to more than 15 chapters, and yay for updates, please post as soon as you can and keep up your great work!
Just so you know. I love that you’ve made someone other than Alice the most neurotic one in the room (for the time being at least). Sleep deprivation and loss of body weight is definitely affecting Lara’s judgement –and not in a good way. On the other hand, her new menu sounds scrumptious!
Ahh, another good chapter. Recurring nightmares certainly do take their toll, at night as well as through waking hours. Let’s hope she can talk to Al about them, without it wigging either of the two of them out too much.
