If I Fall: Chapter 12
As the song finished, Alice was still preoccupied with the unanswerable question Jules had just asked her, that she completely forgot to make a wish and instead readied herself to blow out the candles. Dana, standing directly across from Alice, noticed this and halted the writer in her tracks.
"Wait, Al, you gotta make a wish."
Alice smiled at Dana for being so cute and conscientious before locking eyes with the athlete and staring into deep wells of blue. The look between the two was so intense and filled with yearning that Alice was forced to close her eyes in order to resist the gravitational pull she was feeling towards Dana. It was almost as if Dana’s eyes were able to see something in her that no one else could…her heart. And that scared the shit out of Alice because she had done everything in her power to bury it deep enough so that no one could reach it, especially Dana. But the look they had just shared made Alice feel utterly vulnerable and unprotected, so much so that it almost made her forget everything they had been through before that very moment. And this made her even more afraid, because one look from Dana seemed to chip away at the wall Alice had so vigilantly built. So she made a wish and blew out the candles, but as she opened her eyes to the sound of applause, once again all she could see was Dana still staring at her longingly.
Alice quickly looked down at the cake and cleared her throat. "Hey, everyone, I’d like to say something if I can."
"Make it snappy," Shane teased.
"Yeah yeah, alright. I just want to thank you all for being here tonight and celebrating what’s probably the best excuse for a party I can think of…my birthday. I know I haven’t been the easiest person to be friends with, or work with, or drink with, or maybe even to date, for that matter. But I’m glad you all put up with me long enough to see me through the rough times…or at least to get me birthday presents! Anyway, thank you for being here with me tonight, I really do love you all."

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.
