"I guess," Dana admitted. "But how good can any of this be for either one of us? She won’t admit she misses me or that she still wants me in her life because she’s so God damn afraid of taking a chance and allowing herself to feel anything for me. So instead, we’re back to playing this ridiculous cat and mouse game, pretending we both don’t really know what’s going on. I just wish she’d be honest with herself about what’s really in her heart. Because I know she feels the same way I do, she just has to. I can see it in her eyes every time I look at her. She’s just afraid to let go and trust me again."
Harrison shook his head and scrunched up his nose. "That’s a tough one, Dane. What are you gonna do?"
"What can I do? Other than wait it out and hope she gets tired of putting up this fight. It has to be weighing on her at this point. I mean, staying away from me is only half the battle, but the constant lying to herself has to be wearing her out to some degree."
"And you’re sure that’s how she feels, huh? Cause she’s doing a pretty solid job at pretending, considering she’s got that hot girlfriend and all."
"Ugh, don’t remind me." Dana sighed in frustration.
"Well I hope for your sake that she wises up soon. Cause none of this is good for your career. You remember your career, right? It’s that little thing that pays the bills." He threw the tennis ball he was holding up in the air and playfully swatted it in her direction.
Dana rolled her eyes and made her way back to the baseline of the court. She knew her and Alice were meant to be, but it was just a matter of Alice admitting it too. And Dana surmised, or rather hoped, that sooner or later, the writer would get tired of fighting her on it. And when Alice did get tired, Dana would be there, ready to try again.
————————————————————————————————————————————
Alice was casually seated on the comfy brown leather chair across from Harriet, her therapist. While at first glance she looked relaxed, a closer look revealed that she was seated nearly on the edge of her seat, flailing her arms about as she spoke with sheer exasperation etched in her voice.

Nice Cliffhanger, don’t wait too long to update! Bathrooms are Danish’s special place…Get it on Get it on
Okay you’ve gotta be kidding me with this “should I continue” crap. Seriously, if you don;t have them work it out and consummate the hell out of each other I’m gonna hunt you down. Not really but it sounded good in my head. You quit I quit, so there. Really though, I love this and I love the whole tension thing. You’re awesome so you better damn well continue!
Swissmiss24, of course I remember your story. As a matter of fact, I have been waiting for this update. A month ago, I mentioned you on ourchart.com/forums/fanfiction/”Danish Writers, Where Art Thou.” The story line is attractive with D pursuing A. You wrote a very determined D. For example, in this chapter, you wrote “And when Alice did get tired, Dana would be there, ready to try again.” And yes, the cat and mouse game, that is why Danish is intriguing. Back to this chapter having Harrison as D’s sounding board was fun. It reminded me of the 3 musketeers’ visiting B & T to solve the “soup chef” problem. I could picture D’s same expression in this conversation with Harrison. Oh, and about Alice exercising, only if the sun would rise from the west. A’s heart to heart talk with Harriet was great. At least it was a start for A to admit herself out loud her feelings for D. But stalking again, I am not sure I can handle a second round. I love a hot & dorky Dana. Cinderella & Prince Charming? Nice touch. OMG, what a fantastic cliffhanger ending. I don’t know how you can even consider not continuing this story. About a month ago, I started commenting on Danish stories. With this post, you gave me a chance to tell you how much joy I got reading your previous posts. MT put it the best and please listen to her. MT also writes so beautifully and we as readers could not afford to lose two major Danish writers who happen to be “La crème de la crème”. So, pps, I waited more than 2 months for this post and if I have to wait again, it will be fine with me. I do understand quality writing takes time. I would love to read how they work things out. Thank you very much.
Oh my god!! You can NOT leave it there!! Please continue with this story.
Just popped out to join in the begging comments. Pleeeease… don’t keep us in suspense any longer… And pleeeease, don’t even think of quitting it; it’s too good!! Dana being the drooling one… owww that’s priceless! I wish they had shown us some of this in the show. Fast forward to Julesless si vous plait; she doesn’t hold a candle to Dana…!! Plus, I can see a dark side on her. I don’t buy that social worker stuff… I think she has something up her sleeve… PleeeeasePS, I love it!

Great update, swismiss! 21a implies a 21b coming along soon, right? Please?
I’m not much of a poster, Im usually dedicated to Muted’s danish only on here but about 2 months ago I decided to check around when I really needed a danish fix. I remember reading the last chapter posted and being like “oh shit this was like over a month ago, theres no way shes gonna post again!” yet today I decided to check anywaise and saw that you did, you have no idea how excited I was for some fresh danish and a solution to the last chapter. But I gotta say, your cruel for leaving this on such a cliff hanger. Pleeeeease post again and continue to do so. I depend on fanfic to keep my danish addiction satisfied, and your one of the best by far. I love this story! But especially I love Dana just because shes the hottest, funniest and most adorable character on the show. I love me some good danish in the mornings, so please post the rest in the next week. Im jonesing.
please don’t keep us hanging in here for long. hihihi I’ve been reading your story and I like it very much, just thought I’d leave a comment to let you know, thanks:)
