If I Fall: Chapter 12
And as soon as they were amongst their friends again, Alice patted Dana’s hand and made a beeline for Jules. All of this was being closely watched by Shane as Dana slowly made her way over to the group, some of whom were waiting anxiously for her to reveal details. But instead, ever the private person, Dana just smiled at the inquisitive looks she received and sat down next to Shane, her own face a mixture of relief and defeat.
"Everything cool?" Shane inquired nonchalantly as she took another sip of beer.
"Yep. Everything’s great," Dana replied, not even able to look at Shane as her eyes were glued to Alice and her new girlfriend. She couldn’t help but feel the brutal pangs of jealousy shooting through her chest once again as she realized that just minutes ago Alice felt like hers again. And maybe for those few short moments, she was. It was as if time had frozen for the two of them and the rest of the world just faded away. The moment was theirs and theirs alone. But once they left the beach the clock seemed to not only start again, but speed up furiously, throwing Dana’s entire balance out of whack. It was overwhelming for the athlete, to say the least. And she knew she should just suck it up and be grateful for what she did have, what they did accomplish that evening. So she tried her best to repress the sadness and pain caused by witnessing how happy and carefree Alice now seemed with Jules sitting on her lap. Dana knew she should just focus her energy on the fact that things seemed to be getting back to normal between her and Alice. At least as normal as they could be considering all the unrequited feelings Dana was now harboring.
So she mustered up her best fake smile and resolved to be happy that she had her best friend back. And she truly was glad that Alice finally seemed to be her old self again. Except now, despite her best intentions, watching someone else make Alice happy only made Dana unbearably sad.
Meanwhile, Alice was busy trying to figure out why Jules seemed so distant.

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.
