Dana was now even more confused than she ever was before, she decided she would just keep her hopes at knee level and leaveas she was going to stand Alice pulled her back and scooted closer to the tennis player who began swearing her ***** offwell at least her palms.

Alice noticed Dana get nervous and start to sweat, Jesus Dana, why are you sweating so much?.

Dana was getting a little heated, Well, ***** AL, I may be stupid and slow at times but right now I am pretty sure even Bill Gates wouldnt understand where you were going with this thing.

Alice realized that maybe she was being a little off, ok, Im sorry, what do you want to know?

Dana got nervous, the balls were flying around everywhere, it was like they were playing tennis, one second balls in Alices court, and the next, its back in Danas. Dana took her hand back and placed them in her lap as she turned forward away from Alice and whispered, I know you love me Albut what do you mean differently? Is that good or bad?

Alice looked at Dana who was now looking deeply into her eyes with a pain and hopelessness she had never seen before. Now she knew exactly what to say, I dont know Dane, I think its badfor us.

Danas heart fell to the ground and shattered into a million pieces of dust ready to be swept away and hidden into her closet one more time, okIm going to go.
Alice grabbed Danas hand once more and pulled her down as she rolled her eyes, What is with this leaving Fairbanks, Alice was now closer than ever to Dana, but Dana didnt feel it anymore, she wasnt nervous or anything because she knew nothing could happen.

Dana exhaled slowly, You said it was bad Al, meaning you dont love me that way.

Alice started to lose her confidence and bowed her head a bit and whispered, You didnt let me finish she looked back up to Dana who looked like she was ready to leave, I said its bad because for the first time in your life Fairbanks, you actually got it right, and Dana Fairbanks being rightwow ***** must be freezing over.
