If I Fall: Chapter 10
So she jokingly told herself that her only worry should be that one of her friends might swoop in and steal Jules away from her. Except, that would be ignoring the whole Dana factor and try as she may, Alice couldn’t really do that. She knew her friends were mature enough to not treat any new girlfriend of hers any differently than they would any new girlfriend of Dana’s, but Alice still had her doubts about how this would go down. They had all known Lara before the breakup, and she had always been considered an extended part of their little family. Especially now with her working for Kit at The Planet, the sous chef almost spent more time with Alice’s friend than Alice. And while her friends had openly vowed to not take sides, they sure as hell didn’t hold back welcoming Lara to the family like it was just where she belonged. But Jules was the wildcard in all this. She was a virtual stranger to them all, and Alice feared that her friends wouldn’t be as hospitable as they should because of some misplaced sense of loyalty to Dana. She knew she was probably worrying about nothing, but after all, that was what she did best lately. And she was learning the hard way that no amount of Valium, Ritilin, Vicadin or Prozac would stop that.
However, Alice was too nervous about the idea of actually going on a real date with someone else in the first place to agonize about any possible introductions to her friends later on. And to add to Alice’s trepidation, Jules wasn’t exactly the most calm and collected of girls. In fact, her ability to ramble on perpetually when nervous, coupled with her penchant for getting embarrassed when someone complimented her or brought attention to her in any way, reminded Alice of Dana. ‘I guess I have a type,’ she thought when the comparison first clicked in her head. And it was strange because just as Dana seemed like the most confident, strong-willed person alive when she stepped onto a tennis court, Jules was the same way when she stepped onto a stage. It was as if all of her insecurities fell by the wayside and she simply transformed into this enigmatic, self-assured being. And Alice admired the way Jules could forget about all her fears and work the crowd until the very last note she sang. Not to mention that it was sexy as hell.

Bradshaw approves highly of this chapter :D I’m agreeing with muted about that hug, if danish think they can have a platonic friendship I think they are madly mistaken, Jules is gonna get his heart broken, yes I put his on purpose because I still believe he’s hiding a penis in there somewhere, that’s why he and Alice haven’t had sex, he doesn’t want his secret revealed :P Am i right? This was a cliffhanger, I really wanna know what Alice and Dana say to each other now lady, bad you for making me needy! However it could go terribly wrong and they end up arguing, or will they actually communicate and tell each other what’s going on? Will Jules catch them? PPS so I can let out a sigh of relief when I read a glimmer of hope for danish :)
I’m feeling awfully needy too. I didn’t even think about them possibly having an argument – but things seem to spiral out of control quickly with our beloved danish. Jules seems so good for Alice, but her unfinished business with Dana is going to leave her in the cold eventually. I like how Jules reacted to Dana. She’s not going to let Alice go without a fight, but Alice’s heart is elsewhere. Imagine if Lara was at the party. She wouldn’t have appreciated that not so little hug. Maybe Jules and Lara can get together.I was psyched to see that you updated so quickly, but I was tempted to delay reading because with your busy schedule – who knows when you’ll have time to update again. You aren’t too overworked right now, are you? lol
Great chapter as always. You portray and develop the characters so perfectly. I can’t wait to see how this story unfolds and hopefully it will be a looong happy one :P Thansk for such great writing. Post soon!
ah man – you’re gonna leave it there. well ok – more to look forward to in the next post. thanks. that was cute.
this is such a great story. you’ve got alice down to a T! i love it. i’m feeling sorry for dana,and nervous for alice and jules. can’t wait to see what happens next.
LOL @ Alice kissing Jules’ eyelid on the first date. No matter how Jules tries to mark her territory, though, I have this distinct feeling that she’s going to be left out in the cold… there’s too much left undone between Al and Dana for her to be able to stop it. Liked the chapter a lot, swiss, post soon!
I loved the tension bewteen Alice and Dana. The talk can go either way (and is probably more likely to end in an argument), but as long they have chemistry I’m fine with it. :)
This is a great I can’t wait for more
The Eternal Hug, eh? Nice. And Jealous Jules is pretty awesome, too. I feel bad for her though, it’s so obvious that Dana and Alice are nowhere close to being over each other. And I’m with you, the new season is making me adore Helacious times a thousand. I just hope the show writers realize what a good thing it’d be. Knowing them, though, we’ll have to depend on fanfic. Anyway: Danish good.
“Pain in the ass, Yoda is,” – that made me smile. Can’t wait to see what happens next
Lovely thank you. PPS
