Drowning 22 (part 2)
“You shouldn’t take it personally, we were all just hurt. But don’t thank me yet. I’m not done. Robin, the situation you are in just plain sucks. I want to make you a copy of the ‘life sucks’ playlist, but you knew what you were getting into. You chose to continue a relationship with someone who admittedly regrets that her previous relationship ended, who says that no one will ever have as much of her as her ex does. You chose this. So you can’t get upset that now it’s come to a head. In my humble opinion, this is the best thing that could have happened to you.”
“What are you talking about Alice? What about this is good?” Bette asked.
“Good question Ms. Porter. I’ll explain. It did bring it to a head. It is forcing you to think about things that you haven’t had to think about in years. Bette, you claim that Tina will always have a piece of your heart. You’ve always said that. Now is your chance to figure out what part of your heart that is. Because to be totally honest, I do like Robin. And she deserves someone’s full love. You need to figure out if that can be you. And if it can’t, you need to love her enough to let go and find someone who can. Honestly, Bette, you both deserve more. Seeing Tina, meeting Cara, this will force you to think about it all. You think you’ll always love her. But Bette, you loved who she was, not who she is, and T isn’t the same person. I mean at the core, she is, but she has been through a lot and she is a much stronger woman than the one you know. For all you know, you’ve been holding a candle for a dream from your past, not any reality.” Alice took another sip from her drink. “OK. I’m off of my soap box now.”
“But Alice…” Bette started
“Nope. No ‘buts’. Not allowed tonight. Think about what I said, tomorrow, give me the buts, but for now, this topic is closed. Personally, my life is in *****, and I’d like to be selfish and talk about my problem now, ok?”

NOOOOO please don’t make us wait. I for the life of me can’t figure this out. What could have Dana so scared she would give everything. Now all I’m going to do is obsess even more about this story, so hurry up so I can have a life.
Maybe when Alice wakes up Dana will tell her? (hint, hint) :)
Call the police, Dana! Call the FBI!!!!
Do you think she can hear me through this internet connection????
Alice was a soothsayer tonight, thanks to Jack!
I loved it, as usual, but look at the state you have us all in now! You have to post again soon; we can’t stand the suspense. (And, Dana, since Alice is right there on the couch: tell her!)
I forgot and Jo Dee Messina “Love is Not Enough”, that is the ultimate heartbreak song. Beautiful and each time I hear it, I thanked god, I’m not in the middle of a breakup.
I was waiting for you lol! Alice’s collection of songs had me cracking up, btw I love the Carpenters. Tina and Dana was touching and sweet. I missed this group of friends where everyone came together and helped out. You really aren’t gonna make this easy for us, aren’t you? What is going on with Dana? The suspense is killing me!
EEEH! Fix it!! Pweese? I luv it! Update soon, that was greeeeeat!
Ok, I’m coming out of lurkdom to say how much I love this story but it’s driving me crazy. (In a good way) Just when I think Dana’s going to cave in and spill the beans with what’s really going on…she fools me once again! Can’t wait for the next chapter.
“She was so torn.” Oh poor Dana!
it’s a great story. however, I don’t understand why Dana didn’t even think about calling police?
Ok, you have me thinking and thinking about all the possibilities for Dana’s behavior, please let us know! lol. Thanks for post soon.
i luv this fan fic!! This is such a great storyline!!! please write soon! the suspense is killing me! they gotta get back together! and tinas gotta stay!
Dana has to go to the police, or at least talk to Alice.
Alice hit the nail on the head with Bette, Bette has to decide what she wants, its not fair on Robin.
Thank you.
