If I Fall: Chapter 18
"Listen, I don’t know about you, but it was a long night for me." Alice immediately felt guilty upon hearing those words. A long night indeed. Poor Jules was probably up all night thinking that she’d lost Alice to another woman, wondering where to go from here. And Alice was busy playing the fool in Dana’s drunken little escapade, actually getting sucked in long enough to fall back into old habits and right into Dana’s arms. She was determined to do right by Julianna, and not give a second thought to any of the athlete’s tequila-induced confessions of love…or lust, or whatever it is Dana thought she drunkenly felt last night. " Alice, why don’t you go home and get some sleep, I’ll do the same. And then I’ll swing by and pick you up later before my gig."
"Oh my God, that’s right! The benefit concert at The Planet is tonight. I almost forgot!"
"I hope you didn’t forget you were going with me as my date…"
"Of course not," she grinned. "I’d like nothing more."
"Good." Jules returned the smile shyly.
"Great. Okay, I guess I’ll get going now."
"Yeah, get out of here already, would ya?" Jules teased as she stood up and followed Alice to the door.
"Okay, so I’ll see you at 7?" The blonde nodded. "Okay, one more," Alice murmured as she leaned in and quickly kissed her girlfriend goodbye.
But after Alice swiftly exiting the apartment, Jules couldn’t help but let out a heavy sigh as she thought about their talk. She had to admit that she was putting on a brave face for Alice, wanting to believe that her friendship with Dana was just that. But as she thought of the way Dana would look at Alice, and then the way Alice would steal tiny, little glances at Dana from across a crowded room, making it seem like the two of them were the only ones there, the little bit of faith Jules had in her own relationship felt non-existent. She couldn’t help feeling extremely beleaguered and unsure of Alice’s promises, especially if Dana was so determined to keep finding ways to make her break them.

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.
