If I Fall: Chapter 12
"Oh my God!"
Dana recognized the look of shock on Alice’s face and realizing she was busted, she began to sputter out the first excuse that came to mind. "Listen, it’s not what—"
But she was unexpectedly cut off by Alice’s laughter. "I don’t believe it…Dana, did you just throw up?"
"Huh," she asked with bewilderment.
"Your face, Dane—it’s white. And you’re face is dripping with sweat, and your eyes are all red. Plus, it took you like, forever to open the door. You are such a lightweight, Fairbanks…you really can’t hold your alcohol, can you?"
"Ha, yeah, you caught me," Dana answered with palpable relief in her voice.
"Wow, that’s classic. Does Shane know about this? She always loves a good drunk Dana story."
"No, no…but maybe you should go tell her now."
"Meh, I’ll just let her know tomorrow at The Planet. Hey, are you gonna join us?"
"Uh, sure."
"Great. So…I hope you had a good time tonight. Well, pre-vomiting I mean."
"You know, I actually did. I have to admit I was kind of nervous tonight. But you helped set my mind at ease. You were always so good at that."
"Eh, just years of practice I guess."
"Yeah."
Dana had been successful thus far at avoiding eye contact with the writer. It wasn’t that she couldn’t bring herself to looking at Alice, but she was so afraid to share another look with her like they had before over the birthday candles. If she let her eyes wander and lock with Alice’s again, she wasn’t sure she’d be able to keep herself from grabbing the other woman and bringing her in for a soul-scorching, mind-shattering kiss. And yet, something was pulling her, almost a magnetic force, to stare into Alice’s eyes until the other woman gave into the pull too. But Dana resolved to be stronger than whatever force was pulling her into dangerous territory, so she kept her eyes averted but instead pulled Alice into a hug.
‘There,’ Dana thought, ‘at least she can’t see the look on my face now. And this is an appropriate hug, right?’ Except it wasn’t. Dana started to move her hands along Alice’s back, feeling as much of the writer as she could and reveling in the tingling throughout her body every time she was fortunate enough to feel the writer’s bare skin against her own. And she couldn’t help it, but she caught herself inhaling the familiar scent of Alice’s hair and savoring the aroma of the writer’s lavender shampoo.

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.
