She begrudgingly exited the vehicle and slowly made her way up to her apartment. Unfortunately, the leisurely pace she assumed did nothing to delay the inevitable by more than ten seconds at most. Even the time spent rifling through her bag for her house key proved unnecessary as she realized the door was unlocked the entire time.
Turning the knob with as little sound as possible, she stepped inside and closed the door just as quietly behind her. Taking one more deep breath (in hopes to muster up whatever nerve she had left) she turned around expecting to have to go walk into the bedroom and wake Jules up. But instead, she was startled to find the blonde sitting stiffly on the couch, hands folded in her lap, staring up at her expectantly.
"Shit, you scared the shit out of me," Alice exclaimed as she placed her hand over her heart.
"I can say the same for you." Jules tried to force a small smile, but it looked more to Alice like she had some sort of toothache instead. The blonde focused her eyes back down to her lap.
"I—I’m sorry Juliana. I didn’t…I mean, I know I should have called to let you know I was okay."
Jules shot back up to look at Alice and studied her for a moment in silence. "But you’re not, are you?" The writer opened her mouth to reply, but wasn’t quite sure how to answer the question. "So I take it she found you?"
"Who?"
"Dana." Saying her name aloud made Jules visually cringe at this point.
"Well, I actually…found her. But, how did you know that—,"
"I ran into her earlier. Camped outside the door," she motioned her head towards the hallway, "and unwilling to tell me what happened between you two to make you run away like that." Alice sighed and looked at her forlornly. "And knowing Dana, even for the limited amount of time that I have, she doesn’t really seem like the type to let anything get in the way of what she wants."
"I—"
"So," the blonde continued, studying her fingernails and drowning out Alice’s feeble attempt at an explanation. "When I hadn’t heard from you after a few hours, I assumed that you two found each other…one way or another."

YAY!!! I love it! Post Soon!
Yay! I’m sitting in a hotel room in London, online for the first time in almost a week, and I see this on the first page. So happy you posted, and what a great chapter. I’m glad my girls are talking and holdong off on just jumping each others’ bones, although I have to be a perv and admit that I think they should jump each others’ bones all the time. And I know she’s already been claimed, but can I have Jules? Give a girl a break, I got through all of L3 without even a kiss. But it was such an awesome time, and all f them were gorgeous. Leisha and Erin kept watching each other talk on stage, and it was enough to make your heart melt. Well, maybe just mine since I’m a sap. This comment is hella long, sorry!
you blow me away. that was so good. i am glad alice went easy on dana when she tried to walk out, that would have sucked if they already got in a fight. i knew jules was going to know (but how could she not?) and yeah she should have let alice have it – but i’m glad she didn’t. we need to meet up in ny sometime soon? i will email you.
What a great update. This is such a fantastic story it’s been such a journey that you have taken this pair on to get to this point I can’t wait to see what you write for them together. Thanks for updating.
I have loved this story from the very beginning. This chapter is another example of your finest writing, beautifully executed. My heart melted while reading A & D’s tender moments. They absolutely belonged together and thanks for reuniting them at last. Simultaneously, I also felt sorry for Jules. Her speech was accurate, wise, thoughtful and most important of all, flawless. It is really pointless to be someone’s #2. Lastly, I want to convey to you my utmost admiration of your ability to deliver a perfectly crafted story. Bravo!
Hey, I’m totally new here and this was one of the first stories i started reading, I’ve been a bit of a silent reader but I finally decided to come and join the gang. I’m so happy you’ve found time to come and write again, this was a flawless and heartfelt chapter and I can’t fault you. Amazing =)
you rock!! so much too, more more please!! i crave this story so much it’s a little weird actually. Your one of two writers that i get really excited for wen i see u’ve posted i just can’t get enough and now that they’re finally back together its just gunna get so much better, poor jules though oh so sorry for her but it had to happen for danish sake. I can’t wait till next time on if i fall…. neways until next time i guess :) snaps for the swissmister!!!
Excellent chapter as always, swismiss24!! You write both girls so well — so honestly. And it’s great that they are actually communicating. I also love the maturity of the both of them. They both wanted to stay and get re-connected but both realized they had other things they needed to do. Gives me hope that things will work out this time around for them. “Capitan” Hee! Jules? Come on over here and MaGoose will take care of you. ;-D Thanks so much, swismiss24. This really was an amazing update to the story!
I feel sorry for Jules. She’s a great woman, if she were real and here, well somebody would be awfully lucky to have her! hehe This is one awesome chapter swismiss. But even if Jules is great and all, it wouldn’t be fair o neither of them if they continued sailing their ship. Thanks for updating! dear awesomeness:)
Nicely done yet again! I really like the fact Danish slowed down and talked to each other. It’s encouraging to see their relationship maturing. As much as I liked the impulsiveness of “Finally” in S2, I equally enjoyed those few glimpses we had into their still-intimate but less frenzied conversations. Thanks for rounding out their interation for us here. Congratulations on your Bar results! As always, I’m looking forward to the next installment. Thanks for continuing.
I hope you plan to update this AMAZING story soon!
