Drowning – 23
Before she consciously awoke, Dana heard Alice’s cries in her sleep. In her dreams, she took Alice in her arms and held her. She softly stroked Alice hair while whispering to her. Dana held Alice tight, tight enough for the blonde to know that she would always be safe with Dana, tight enough to know that she would always find Dana there, waiting to comfort her when she needed. Dana smiled into Alice hair as she held her, but the cries didn’t diminish, they grew louder. As Dana tried harder and harder to comfort Alice, she felt her body shake with the sobs that she couldn’t control. And Dana head’s shot up as she awoke.
She looked up at Alice and saw the tears streaming down her face. Dana moved to the couch, put her arms around Alice, and pulled her towards her. “Alice, what’s wrong?”
Alice didn’t move from within Dana’s arms. She buried her head deeper and continued to cry. The comfort she felt within Dana’s arms was at one moment both the safety that she so badly needed and the pain that forced the tears she could not control. She longed to feel safe in Dana’s arms. She longed for a time when she was too naive to ever believe that Dana could hurt her and that for as long as Dana held her Alice could hold on to the belief that no matter what happens, she will make it through. Sadly as quickly as that comfort came, it left again, and it was a crushing loss.
“I’m fine now Dana, thanks.” Alice said, her voice raw from tears. She pushed herself away from Dana and left herself sitting upright on the couch. She wiped her eyes, as though she could hide the tears from Dana, not wanting to show Dana that much pain. It wasn’t a very altruistic thought it was selfish. She didn’t want Dana to think she held that much power over her. Silly, right? As though she could hide the connection and the pain that came from severing that connection, but for the moment, that gave Alice a little strength. She needed that strength for the conversation she knew they needed to have.
“Are you sure you’re ok, Al? Can I do anything?” Dana asked, her voice small and concerned. She couldn’t move her eyes from Alice’s face.

That’s all I was thinking when I read how you ended this. Luce, you’re driving me crazy here! I hope you’re happy that I was crying for most of this one too – even during the HOT sex scene! I complain, but you know I love the tease. (hey, my “skip-a-chapter” plan worked!)
Ok, I have spent the majority of the day and night reading all of the chapters to this story. This is an outstanding story! I love it, love it, love it! Your writing ability to tell a story is fantastic. You are awesome at describing scenes, you use direct quotes perfectly and grammatical it’s wonderful. Keep up the unbelievable great work! I cannot wait to read the next chapter and the next and the next, etc… I love it!
Finally something happened! I hate (and LOVE) your cliffhangers :D Danish can solve the stalker problem together! Hopefully you are not going to make us too long *fingers crossed*. *5*
