Chapter 12
"Here you go. It was Pinot, right?"
Jules lifted her head up to find Bette standing over her, handing her a new glass of wine.
"Uh, yeah, thanks," the singer replied absentmindedly.
Bette noticed the slightly dejected tone in her voice and hesitated before inquiring further. She hardly knew Jules, but still, it didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out there was definitely something bothering her. She quickly looked around to see if Alice was nearby, hoping she’d be available to console her new girlfriend, but couldn’t seem to find the writer anywhere. Sighing, Bette sat down next to Jules and decided to see if she could help.
"Is everything okay?" It clearly wasn’t, yet Bette didn’t feel close enough to her to skip the formalities.
"Yeah, it’s all good," Jules retorted as she tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and studied her wine glass idly.
Bette decided it wasn’t really her place to pry, so she simply shrugged and smiled before standing up to go.
"Except…," Jules began slowly. This halted the brunette in her tracks and she sat back down in the previously occupied chair to wait for the blonde to continue. "… Alice has been out on the beach for an awfully long time with her ex."
"Wait a minute, Alice is out there with Dana?" Bette questioned as she turned and squinted towards the general direction of the beach.
"Yep. For the past twenty minutes, actually."
"You seem upset about it."
"Bette, I’m fully aware of the whole sordid history there. I know there’s still so much left unresolved between them, and I don’t want to just be a temporary distraction for Alice until Dana realizes what a mistake she’s made and begs for another chance."
"Well if you know as much you say you do, I’m quite sure you realize that it’s not that simple between Dana and Alice."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, let’s just say even if Dana did want Alice back, I don’t really think Alice would be welcoming her home with open arms."
"Still…"
"Jules, Alice seems happy for the first time in as long as I can remember, and I’m pretty sure a big part of that is due to you. It’s obvious how much you mean to her. You know her face lights up every time she talks about you. Plus, it took nearly a month for her to let us meet you. And knowing Alice for as long as I have, that just means that she wanted to be sure you were as special as she thought you were all along."

Nice touch with the gift and the note…sorry to say Jules, but you might as well get to pack’n…Sorry I have been a silent reader, but I had to comment after this chapter…PPS
that was such an awesome update. dana’s note was so beautiful. i was starting to think – how will they ever work this out? but the ending has given me some hope. i feel bad for jules and lara but like gemzo said – you can’t stand in the way of true love. thanks for that.
Poor, poor Jules. I liked the fact that Max and Jenny had a fight. That was cute. But poor Jules… lol
Wow fantastic part! Beautiful note from Dana, I feel a bit sorry for Jules but you can’t stand in the way of true love (i hope!) PPS :)
Okay, you made me cry like three times with this thing. Poor Alice, and poor Jules, and poor Dana. Poor everybody, except not Helena since she’s still rich in this. Ha, the wittiness, it astounds even me. And I’m rambling, but I do indeed heart this story immensely.
With Gemzo on this one. awesome story.
Awww, Dana Dana Dana why did you break up with her hmm? Julian is so patient, he’s like super restrained, must be his man powers. LOL I’m sorry, I can’t resist calling her a he, you write so talented and flawless and I’m not poking fun at all, I’m just so caught up and all aboard the danish train woo woo! Ok I think Bradshaw has to stop writing now and chill out because she seems to have lost the plot. Awesome chapter I swear you make me luv you even more with every chap :D xx
awww. that was soo great. loved the note from Dana. It sounds like things are about to be stirred up a bit. Can’t wait to read on.
That was just great. Dana’s gift to Alice was just perfect.
So close, Jules, yet so very, very far away. I’m sorry for her, but as Gemzo’s said, one can’t stop an irresistible force. Nicely done, and sweet at the end.
I actually like Jules…and I think she would be great for Alice if Dana wasn’t around. But Dana is..so back away Jules. ;) I hope a lot of Alice’s quesions willbe anwered by Dana clarifying her note in person.
