If I Fall: Chapter 17
"Dana, are you saying Lara dumped you?"
"Jesus Al, you don’t have to be so harsh. Yeah, fine. I got dumped. Kicked to the curb. Sent out with the trash. Dropped like a bad habit."
"Why?"
"Because"
"Because why?"
"Because of you, silly."
"What?" Alice’s eyes widened and she instinctually moved closer to Dana, unsure if she even heard her correctly. Dana, however, continued to stare up at her, wearing her signature goofy (and in this case, pretty drunk) grin, neither comprehending nor considering the full impact of the words she just uttered. Alice waited for any response at all for another moment more before realizing what a futile task this was. Trying to get Dana to level with her when she was sober was hard enough, but doing it now was damn near impossible. "You know what, forget it," she lamented as she threw her hands in the air, "I’m not even sure why I bother. Have a good night Dana." She turned to leave, but Dana was up on her feet and standing between Alice and the door in no time.
"No! What do you want to know, I’ll tell you…really, I will. Just don’t go. Stay with me a while longer." She didn’t sound desperate in any sense of the word. It was more of a lighthearted plea, but one that was laced with sincerity.
Alice sighed and took a seat on the couch. "Fine, if I stay, but only for a few more minutes, we do it by my rules. Which means you have to answer my questions, no bullshitting or avoiding here."
"Ooh, rules? Is this like a game. I’m good at games," Dana took a seat on the couch next to her and rubbed her palms together playfully.
Alice rolled her eyes and wondered why she was even bothering trying to get answers from her in the state she was in. But then again, alcohol does lessen one’s inhibitions. Maybe this was the only way.
"What happened with Lara?"
Dana’s face dropped and she sighed once more. She focused on her hands, fidgeting with them in hopes to avoid making any eye contact with the writer. "She was tired of me, I guess. She said she knew my heart wasn’t in the relationship, and that I would have done us both a favor if I would have admitted that from the beginning."

awesome. i am so excited to see what happens next.
Oh man my heart is breakin here, this was a great chapter!!, I hope Dana doesn’t give up though, thanks for the post!!
Fantastic chapter – Dana can’t give up on Alice – what a pity she was so stoned – as things might have been a bit different. Can’t wait to see what comes next.
OMG…that was intense. I was holding my breath untill the end of this chapter! What is their next move? What will Alice tell Jules? And how will ‘ sober’ Dana act around Alice the next time they see each other?
Okay, I haven’t even read past the first page yet, but I have to comment and say that I’m a little freaked out. After work this morning I decided to have a Tarantino marathon, and right before I checked the main page I’d just finished watching Pulp Fiction. Needless to say, I’m feeling a little spooked as well as amused by the word “motherfucker” in this. Okay, I’m gonna go read the rest and leave more feedback later. Ta.
Okay, I read it and have returned to comment again. You’re a fucking heartbreaker, you know that?? I’m seriously crying over here. Poor Dana, poor Alice, and even poor Jules, but she’s a bad mother fucker so she’ll get over it. Well, if there’s anything to get over, which there had better be because Alice and Dana need to be together.
First things first it happened at 4am…that was magical, next I am so glad that Dana actually told Alice how she feels but for some reason I don’t think Jules is just going to sit back and let it Dana and Alice happen. This chapter would have to have an 11/10 if I could do that. Fantastic PPS.
Wow! As much as my heart breaks for Dana, I understand Alice’s need to protect herself. Jules is a saint and all, but I wonder how she will react when Alice finally finds her. She gets it. Not only does Dana belong to Alice, (I loved that line), but Alice belongs to Dana too!Go Tennessee!
Wow that was just perfect I can’t wait to see wat happens next
Ouch you are killing me here. PPS. You can’t leave us hanging like that, not nice.
I think we know the real reason Alice and Jules haven’t slept together yet *nudge nudge* , so when he and Alice eventually have the talk about ‘Dana’ will he admit his secret? hehe ok I love this, I truly do, I want it to never end. :) xx
damn! poor dana :S she finally opens to alice but guess it was too late :( i just want jules to disappear…:P well not really but frak! i just want danish together :( can’t wait for your next chapter :D
fanfrikintastic!!!!!
And so it begins…Love this…you have definately captured Danish Angst…Dana needs to really step it up! Great Chapter! PPS!
simply put – well done!
that was great I just hope that dana will keep fighting for alice they so belong together please post soon I love it great update
