"Yeah, well…that was a long time ago," the writer trailed off, failing hopelessly at ridding her memory of the various past encounters they shared in bathrooms such as this.
And try as she may, Dana was now unable to avoid being stung by the writer’s callous attitude. "Jesus Alice, I didn’t realize I was so horrible to be around."
"Oh come on, Dana, that’s not what I’m saying." She placed the door knob down gently on the counter and leaned back casually against it. "It’s just that I had slightly different plans regarding what would take place in this bathroom right now…and it had nothing to do with fighting with you."
"Well what did it have to do with?" Dana eyed her suspiciously, realizing right away what she almost walked in on once Alice nervously placed an errant piece of hair behind her ear and looked away. "Right…St. Jules."
Alice’s attentions were suddenly brought back to Dana as she glared at the athlete irately. "Oh come off it Dana, why do you have to call her that?"
"You really want to know?"
"Probably not," the writer mumbled under her breath.
"You’re so convinced she’s Miss Perfect that you refuse to see there’s something better for you out there."
"And that’s you?" She raised her eyebrows and scoffed.
Dana faltered for a moment, surprised at Alice’s bluntness. "Yes," she replied confidently.
"Dana, we’ve been through this already." She shook her head in frustration, part of her hoping the conversation wouldn’t go the way she assumed it would, but the other part wanting it to go exactly there.
"You know it’s true Alice. And I know you still love me, you’re just too stubborn to admit it."
"Ha! I’m stubborn!" For dramatic effect, the writer put her right hand up to the side of her face to and pretended to be making a phone call. "Hi, kettle, this is Dana, you’re black."
Dana couldn’t help but laugh at Alice’s little demonstration, giving one of her signature goofy grins in return. And once their eyes met, Alice was finding it difficult to avoid giggling right along with her.

Encyclopedia brown? Very funny. This has to be one of the most memorable bathroom scene that I have ever read. D’s confession was genuine and touching. How can A not take her back after that. And it was longest speech I had ever seen D spoke. That was mind blowing. Well done, swissmiss24. Thank you for bringing them back together for even just a moment. I guess things must hit rock bottom before getting better. I had conflicting feelings of Helena interrupting. But what she said to D should shed a light on D the pain the A had endured. I can’t wait for your next post. Thank you so very much.
Thanks for continuing. It’s going to be interesting to see what it finally takes for Al to let Dana back in. I’m looking forward to the next chapter.
Yay, I don’t have to kick your ass! Which I couldn’t do anyway, but still. I absolutely loved it, same as always. But I’m really getting anxious for this “happy Danish” you keep alluding to. And don’t worry, I’m planning a trip out there after L3! I’ve been antisocial too long!
Thank you, swismiss!! What delightful Danish… Please keep writing. I am not sure what happened to Fripster and I would hate to lose you or Muted… ;-D “Encyclopedia Brown” — Soooooo Dana! I love how Dana articulated herself. “And I don’t want you to be my teacher Alice, I want you to be my partner” — Swoon. I think Jules is wonderful, but, my heart belongs to Danish. I’m kinda glad Helena barged in. I think Alice would have felt bad if anything more had happened. She needs to come to the realization that Dana is there for her and is the right choice without too much guilt — although I know she will feel bad for hurting Jules. Thank you again for the great update!!
i will probably read this every day until you post again. so please post soon. ny, huh? i am a part time new yorker now – i have to go there part of the week for an indefinite period. i am excited. i love new york. well that was an excellent update – i love that we are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. they were so cute, i love how dana laid it all out on the line.
WOW!!! How could Alice not take her back after that heartfelt confession? Jules is great and all but she doesn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell. It’s just a matter of time before Alice completely gives in and goes back to Dana. Great update, please post soon.
