Alice wiggled her eyebrows seductively and closed the space between them with one small step. "So, can I assume that once we get back to my place I’ll be able to convince you to spend the night?"
Jules unconsciously licked her lips and looked Alice once over before using all her self-restraint to formulate a verbal response to the writer’s question. "Consider me convinced."
This earned her a huge grin from the writer, who lifted her eyebrows once more and placed a quick peck on the her girlfriend’s lips. "Then let’s say our goodbyes…quickly. It’d be silly to waste any more time when we have an empty apartment waiting for us across town."
As Bette and Tina had already left twenty minutes earlier to get home for the babysitter, followed by Kit and Angus who seemed to have been preoccupied with the thought of their own empty apartment waiting for them across town, Alice figured that the time spent saying goodbye to her friends should have been lessened. She took Jules’ hand and walked over to Shane, Carmen, and Jenny, who seemed to be involved in a heated debate over the similarities between The Mary Tyler Moore Show and That Girl.
"There’s no way Mary Tyler Moore was a rip-off of That Girl, the former holds up as a classic and the latter is just a campy situation comedy," Jenny explained.
"Oh please, single thirty-something female from an upper-middle class upbringing trying to make it on her own in the big city? It’s the same show," Carmen interjected before noticing Alice and Jules approach. "Hey, Al, what’s your pick: Mary Tyler Moore or That Girl?"
"How can there even be a debate going on over this? Mary for sure! She was funny and elegant at the same time…not that easy to master. And Marlo Thomas was great in her own way, but she was missing one thing."
"What’s that?"
"A kick-ass best friend like Rhoda Morganstern. Hello? Rhoda rocked."
"Hmm, I totally forgot about Rhoda. Good point," Carmen admitted.
"Yes, I’m full of them…okay you guys, Jules and I are calling it a night."
"So soon? You haven’t even opened presents yet," Jenny pouted, earning a look from Shane.

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.
