"Lara, that’s not what I’m worried about," Dana called after her, following closely behind.
"Well what then?" She grabbed her keys off the mantle and placed her hand on the doorknob.
"I…uh, are you gonna be okay?"
Lara wiped a tear from the corner of her eye before it fell and turned around to meet Dana’s own pleading gaze. "Oh come on now. I’ve already gotten over you once. This should be a piece of cake by now, right?"
"Lara, I’m sorry. Please believe me. I’m so truly sorry for not telling you this sooner, and not being honest with you about all of it. I just…I guess I wasn’t ready to deal with it myself. But you have to know that I never meant to hurt you. I love you too much to ever have wanted any pain inflicted on you at all."
"I know that Dana. I know you love me. But it’s just not the kind of love I need from you."
Dana’s eyes dropped to the floor as she shook her head in frustration. "Fuck. Why the hell do I keep fucking everything up?"
Lara sighed. "Dana. Look, I’m saying this because I care about you and don’t want to see you keep on making the same mistakes, okay? You need to just cut the shit and grow up."
"What?" she asked, raising her eyes to meet Lara’s.
"If you want to stop fucking things up, you need to start being honest with everyone. And that includes yourself. You can’t go along pretending to feel one way when every inch of you screams that you feel another. And I know why you do it. You think that by denying your real feelings and choosing the path of least resistance, it’s somehow easier for everyone involved. But guess what, Dana? It’s completely not. It sucks. And it hurts. And you’re messing around with people’s lives here. You love her, Dana. And if you really want to stop fucking it up then you need to start being honest about what she means to you and tell her how you feel."
"I wish it was that easy," she mumbled, shifting her eyes back down to the floor in defeat.

I guess Alice and Jules will be getting down with the get down. I’m truly digging this story to the nth. Yay!
Loved it! the break-up was very good..Lara is gone. Next one leaving? Jules (but is it bad that I like her?)I’m glad you liked my last comment, this story is really really great. PPS!!!
I loved Dana’s initial lack of a response when Lara asked if she was still in love with Alice. Thank you for ridding us of the Lara problem. I guess it has been long enough since season 3, so I’m capable of feeling somewhat sorry for her. I was also surprised that Dana was so blunt about Jules in the previous update. Happy writing!
it’s a first step that Dana and Lara broke-up, I mean who was she fooling? poor Lara though…now Dana has to come clean with Alice but I’m worried it’ll be too late :Sand lol can you make the tension thicker? damn! i can’t imagine it but i bet it’ll be a great chapter to read. keep the writing. have a nice week :)
Nice! Interested to see what Dana does, hopefully she puts it all out there, but at the appropriate time! Bring on the angts and sexual tension! PPS
I can’t wait to see how Dana is going to win Alice back
Cool. Loved the update. I am hoping Dana gets the nerve to win her back. PPS.
Great breakup. (now THAT sounds strange)I understand why dananalice wished Dana had initiated it- but it’s not surprising that Lara had too… and we already saw that emotionally Dana was there. The fact that still Lara had to pull it from her was emblematic. What did Alice say last chapter? “Don’t know why i thought you might save us the time and energy and just TELL me what your feeling?” :)I’m looking forward to Alice’s reaction to learning that Dana and Lara have broken up. Poor Alice, she’s toast. : )
lara had some great lines and words of wisdom in this installment. i am glad they broke up, but i kind of wish dana would have done it. but i think through the break up lara talked some sense in to her and dana realizes that she needs to grow up. as usual – great update. post soon and i look forward to some cute danish moments.
Sweet, I think I’m first! Loved it as I always do. I’m glad Lara finally put herself first. Hopefully Dana takes her advice. As for Alice and Jules…if you insist on having them do the horizontal bop, could you possibly have Jules yell out “Motherfucker!” at random intervals? Just a thought (it’d make my week). Anyway, great chapter, and I smell a Danish reconciliation on the way. I hope. Because all the suspense is making me nuts.
This is up the top of my list of fav danish fanfic, I do agree with other ppl that jules can’t be that perfect there has got to be something about her and I think Dana should try and find out more about her. Alice and Dana need to get together soon this is killing me I just want to bang there heads together!! Great fanfic PPS
