Drowning – 23
Alice was still mulling over Bette’s words when a though struck her. In a small voice she began to speak, “But Bette, what if I don’t want to know why? What if Dana was right and this isn’t something I can understand? What if whatever it is that is making her act like this is bad? I mean, I never really thought of that. I kept thinking she was just being scared again, that something spooked her, but what if that isn’t it at all? What am I doing to do? It’s bad enough to think that your girlfriend can just walk away, I don’t know if I can handle it if it’s worse than that.”
Bette seemed to be weighing her options before speaking. She nodded her head as she listened to Alice and took a few seconds to speak after Alice had finished, “Then you’ll know, Al. Isn’t that a good thing? Whatever it is, you deserve to know about. More than that, it’s your right to know. For her to just change your entire life with no valid explanation is absolutely unacceptable. It’ll leave you with doubts forever and you’ll never be able to fully move on. No matter what, you deserve the truth and I think you need to demand it.”
“Demand? How do you suggest I do that? Just march over to Shane’s and demand that she talk to me? You know Dana, she’ll just hole up and shut herself down.”
“Then turn her back on, Alice. It really is simple, what she is doing is wrong. You have been through too much together for you to just sit back and let her make all the decisions and you not even know that why any decisions need to be made at all.” Bette was getting angry and it was noticeable. The strain in her voice was unmistakable and her hands were gesticulating wildly over the table. “I’m sorry to say it, but I am getting quite angry with our little Dana as we sit here talking about this.”
Robin quietly agreed, “You know, Alice, I think she has a point. Look at us. We love each other we both know that. But we have hit a ceiling with our relationship and without resolution regarding Tina, who knows what that’ll bring. That situation is different, the why was never in question. But they never spoke they never resolved anything. I can’t speak for Tina, but Bette has been in a holding pattern for years.”

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*
Loved the pace of this chapter. And the cliffhanger is so perfect that this time I don’t mind it all, provided you post again soon, that is!
