Alice cringed slightly. "Yeah. That’s what I want to talk to you about." She twisted her hands for a second before blowing her breath out in exasperation. "God damn it, Lara. I don’t know what to say. I hate feeling at such a loss for words. I’m a writer for fuck’s sake. Words are my living. But around you, I have no fucking clue. Every step seems to be hard, and every word seems to be wrong. I don’t understand what I feel for you, and I don’t understand the feeling that came over me when I saw you and Bette dancing. Things seemed to be going so well at Bette’s between us, but then we got to Milk."
Lara sat back in her chair. "And, I danced with Bette. Everyone, you included, egged us on. So, we danced. And I enjoyed it. The dance. Not. Bette. It had been so long since I’ve gone dancing….I’d forgotten how fun it is to just let the music take over….and Bette is a good dance partner. I’m sorry if that created a problem for you, but it was an over-reaction, that could have been avoided if you’d just talked to me. But, instead you left with Uta. Where does that leave me?" Her tone had been emphatic, until the last sentence, which was suddenly tentative.
Alice chewed her lip for a moment. "I shouldn’t have gone. But, you need to know, nothing happened between Uta and me. Apparently, um, I talked about you the entire way to Uta’s apartment."
For the first time, a smile played at the corner of Lara’s mouth. Alice was quick to notice the subtle change. She rushed on, "I made a real ass of myself, didn’t I?"
Lara was surprised at the sudden wave of relief she felt upon hearing that Alice had not slept with Uta. Smiling, she nodded. "I think I was the only one that noticed, though. Everyone else was hoping you got lucky. So, Uta took you back to your place last night?"
"Uh, not exactly. I was apparently a little too tipsy for her to get my address, so she took me to her apartment. She slept on the couch, and gave me some surprisingly maternal advice for a vampirologist this morning. Plus a great anti-hangover drink…..she assured me it didn’t contain human blood, but it sure smelled suspicious."

Of course I’m still reading, yay for updates! Now work is insane for ME so I’m looking forward to these to procrastinate with, haha. Where are you going with these Lara fainting/falling spells…is she preggers?! Now that would be drama. I like that you had Alice and Lara doing something together (cooking) to show their interplay and friendship, and of course underlying sexual tension…eventually down the road maybe leading to a LURVE connection? Morever, you keep such a smart and subtle sense of hotness brewing between these two, it makes for addictive reading. Hope you have time to update before too long, thanks for keeping this story up, we are out here, waiting for the next crack, I mean chapter, hit….
Wow…so Alice left with the vampire and she gets mad when Bette & Lara are breaking bread together? Alice needs to make up her mind what she wants…and you can leave Bette out of this little drama…will you find someone for her? Please not Helena…
Oh…and Bette is the B all and end all for EVERYONE…she is the shiznic…and if they can’t handle her …step aside laddies…lol

Entertaining is an understatement. That was fantastic! Just make sure you post another chapter damn quick!
I love it but alice and lara never seam to get a break please post soon can’t wait to see what will happen with them great update
Loved the update. The cooking sessions were sweet and cute. And my thought at the ending of this story was ‘Oh no Lara…!!!!’ First for her letting escape the words she said to Alice and secondly for her tumbling down the stairs (did she faint or might there be more to this?).
Gotta say I’m loving this story. Brilliant writing, and the sexual tension between Alice and Lara is so believeable and hot. Hope you can update soon cos I can’t wait for the next part!
