If I Fall: Chapter 12
Love,
Dana
The tears that had been previously filling up Alice’s eyes were now spilling over and running their course down her tear-stained face. She remembered that day with Dana like it was just yesterday. They were both so young and innocent. Well, at least Dana was. Alice remembered acknowledging even then that this shy, awkward tennis player was going to be an important person in her life. She wasn’t exactly sure just what role she’d play, but the writer immediately took a liking to Dana and felt this inexplicable sense of protection over her. Maybe it was because Dana was so damn naive and unworldly at that point, but Alice had an innate suspicion that that lunch was just the first of many to come.
And true, while she never thought much about the bracelet after their first shopping expedition, it was still one of the things Alice had always wanted but could never quite afford to buy for herself. The fact that Dana spent the money to do so wasn’t really what had Alice choked up, it was the fact that the athlete had remembered such a minute thing as a piece of desired jewelry, and that she had kept it all these years in hopes of using it to make Alice feel loved. The thought was wonderful, but the sentiment behind it just blew Alice away.
"Hey," Jules whispered, "are you okay?"
"Yeah, yeah I’m, uh…I’m good." Alice was shaken out of her reverie, but couldn’t seem to concentrate on anything else. "Listen Jules, I’m sorry. I have a uh, a terrible headache right now. I guess that’s what happens when I drink champagne," Alice lied.
"Do you want me to get you anything? Tylenol or something?"
"No, no I think I just need to lie down. I’m sorry, but would you mind if we just went to bed?"
"Well, that was sort of what I was thinking too…" Jules leaned in and kissed her as passionately as she could, but Alice quickly pulled back.
"No, I mean, just sleep?"
"I thought you wanted this Alice," the singer frustratingly replied.
"I do. God, you don’t know how much I want to be able to give myself to you…completely. Honestly, I do. It’s just that I don’t think tonight would be a good idea, that’s all. It’s all me, I swear. Please don’t think you’re not as irresistible as one woman can get, cause you are. And I can hardly believe I’m saying this right now, but can we just go to sleep?"

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.
