“Oh my God I’m so happy for you guys.” Carmen hugged her and Alice grinned even wider.
“Yeah, Al. Me too. You guys finally got it together. I’m really proud of both of you.” Shane said seriously and then went back to reading. It was only then that she noticed the solemn air that was surrounding her friend.
“Okay, what’s with you. You look like your dog died or something.” Alice sat down and accepted the cup that the waitress brought over to her.
Shane didn’t answer and Carmen smiled and nodded. “She’s meeting my friends and my sister later.” Alice raised her eyebrows with this revelation and Carmen got up from the table to give her girlfriend some time alone to talk with Alice. “I’m going to go to the bathroom. You guys feel free to talk amongst yourselves.” And with a hopeful smile Carmen was gone and Alice looked ready to jump on Shane.
“Okay speak.” Was all she said when Carmen had disappeared from their view.
“Al, it’s no big deal.”
“The ***** it isn’t. This is like major relationship stuff. This like really means a commitment. I mean it’s not as pressuring as a parent, but I mean there’s still family in there. A sister. Which in most cases, mine excluded, is a pretty big deal.”
“Yeah, Al, I know all of that.” Shane said not looking up from her paper.
Alice looked at her friend. Shane had the same attitude that she always had. But there was something that just wasn’t right about the whole situation. “Wait a minute.” She said as she sat back at her chair and looked closely at Shane. “Are you nervous?” She paused and waited for a second for Shane to deny it. “You are. You’re really nervous? Holy *****.”
Shane finally put the paper down and faced her friend. She let out a breath and a look of concentration grazed her face as she tried to chose what she should say next. “Alice,” she started.
“Wait.” Alice interrupted her. “I just want to be in the moment for a second. Shane McCutcheon is nervous about meeting women.”
“You know what never mind.” Shane went to pick her paper back up and Alice caught her hand.

This was a nice surprise to wake up to. Imagine the extra happiness when I looked, and saw the length of your story – especially after you said it was filler. I expected a page at the most. I’m off to read the chapter now.
I missed you around her : ). I couldn’t never resist Danish especially when they’re this sweet with each other. The two things that stood out was:a) Dana little interaction with Shane – that was really kind, and such a wonderful reflection of their friendship. Shane lettting herself be vulnerable is such a delight to read.b) Bette – I’ve always enjoyed the softer side of Bette, humble and more likable. It comes across in your story. I just hope your schedule is flexible enough for you write more ; )
WOW awsome update this was great, Alice and Dana, Dana and Shane, Shane being nervous,loved it all,can’t wait to see what James has in stored, hope you’ll be able to post soon!!
