If I Fall: Chapter 18
"After last night, I think it may be too late for that," Dana admitted.
"Are positive she knows how you feel?"
"Shane, I was drunk and then I kissed her and she ran out. I must have said something that made her feel like she had to do that."
"Well, you don’t know. Maybe you just had bad breath?" She grinned mischievously.
"Funny," deadpanned the athlete.
"Okay, seriously. Let’s just say Alice thinks the kiss last night was some drunken mishap and nothing more. Are you actually prepared to set her straight and tell her how you feel?"
A slight look of panic washed over Dana when she thought of the possibility that Alice may not actually know Dana was still in love with her. "Yes," she stated firmly. "I mean, I’ll…I’ll try," she stammered, "if she’ll hear it."
"Alright," Shane shrugged. "So I ask again. Where do I fit in?"
Dana was thrilled she was inquiring, but hesitant since she knew full well that the stylist would likely object. "I uh, I need you to ask her about last night. I need to know what I said and what she thought of it." She mumbled most of the request, fastening her eyes on the floor as her hands fidgeted in the pockets of her jeans.
"Dana." Shane shook her head adamantly. "You know I don’t do that. I’m not gonna breach Al’s trust in me by reporting back to you. That’s not the way I work."
"You know Shane, I specifically remember you assisting Alice at my tournament that time in her incognito mission to make sure I broke up with Tonya."
"Hey, that’s not fair. I had no idea you didn’t know we were coming."
"Minor details, pal. You owe me one."
"How do I owe you one? If I remember correctly, I think it worked out for you two rather nicely, don’t you?" She wiggled her eyebrows and gave a toothy grin to which Dana lightly swatted her arm for.
"Ugh, come on Shane, please. Just find out what I said last night, that’s all. I won’t ask you for Alice’s commentary. I just need to know exactly what I said. If I wasn’t so drunk I’d remember myself. I just need a little assistance in that category."

Damn right she can…although the Julish reconciliation vexes me, mostly because I too am waiting for the other shoe to drop and Dana to get flat-out rejected and heartbroken. It’s wrong of me to want them to reconcile and be happy when they haven’t worked through their stuff, but dammit they freaking need to. Oh, and don’t feel obligated to post. I’m assuming you’ll be busy with law-school-esque things, and those take precedence over any type of Danish fiction. Think of your career! Wow, I’m really rambling. This is what not sleeping for three days will do to your brain.
Great update – with Shane on the job, I hope she can make them come together. PPS
god i want alice to be happy she deserves it so much…and dana is it but i like jules too shes a great character..buuuuuut dana its always been dana and always will thats what i reckon anyway lol i love this story so much you write so well good job:)
Someone has been busy writing! (yay for us readers – though I get the impression it is going to get worse for danish before it gets better…
screw your career. POST soon dammit! man… i have a headache. I hear Alice and Shane talking and think- Dana really did foul this up– and i’m still not sure why- and what’s changed, really? why SHOULD Alice believe her– other than she really wants to and loves her. i’m mad at dana. but i also adore her and don’t want her heartbroken plus i know she is who Alice needs and wants…. see-this is why you need to post. i am looking forward to seeing how Dana handles seeing Alice with Jules that evening- i’ll wring her neck if she runs. : )
i love this story. it’d be too much to hope that shane taped dana’s confession right? that’d be an asshole move, but alice needs to hear everything dana said. argh.
The only thing I don’t like about each chapter of your story is that eventually each one ends. I just want them to go on and on! I look forward to the next update as time permits.
