She quickly abandoned her act of playing it cool and dropped her guard at once. "I need to speak to her Shane. I have to make sure everything’s alright with her."
"No Dane, you need to make sure that everything’s alright between you two."
"Whatever," Dana waived her hand in the air, "yeah, fine. So?"
"So, things are obviously pretty complicated right now. And you know how Alice gets with this stuff…it’s hard for her to deal. She needs to come to it in her own time. Yeah I know it’s frustrating, but it’s usually for the best, right? And whatever is going on with her right now, you’re just going to make it that much more complicated and overwhelming by showing up at her door demanding answers. Let her come to you Dana. You’ve been patient so far, what’s another few hours?"
"But Shane, what if she’s changed her mind? I need to know."
"And you will. Alice cares way too much about you to not be honest about what’s going on. But did you maybe stop to think she’s not sure herself? Maybe she doesn’t have the answers you need right now, or maybe she’s not ready to hear them herself. Either way, you can’t push this Dana, or you’ll just end up pushing her away."
There was a brief silence and Shane thought her friend had hung up on her.
"Still there?"
Dana sighed resolutely before quietly responding, "Yeah. Yeah I’m still here."
"So…how’s the Planet sound?"
The athlete saw no other choice but to relent. "Sure Yoda, lead the way."
And the next two days to follow occurred in a somewhat similar fashion. Except after fully taking in Shane’s sage advice, Dana resisted temptation as much as possible and refrained from calling Alice completely. Instead, she turned to occupying her free time with as much distraction as possible, be it training on top of more training, packing her bags for New York, or spending as much quality time with her friends as she could, all the while hoping that the writer would just magically appear.
Yet unfortunately, Alice had seemed to simply drop out of sight. Except of course for one inconsequential email, containing just two lines, which was sent to the group on Tuesday afternoon after two days of zero contact with anyone. When Dana first saw the email in her inbox, her heart leapt at first with excitement and then with subsequent fear. But as she bit her bottom lip and allowed her shaking hand to click "read", her disappointment was considerable when stricken with the realization that the correspondence was sent not only to her, but to Bette, Tina, Shane, and Helena as well. And to add insult to injury, Dana wasn’t even first on the list, divulging only: Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that I’m okay. I’ll be in touch soon. –Alice.

First of all, welcome back!!! Second of all…. I thought she called Dana!!! Anyway, I love Jules too. OMG I hate to admit but I love this wavering thing. Yes, all the while it pains me to see Alice and Dana suffer, I actually enjoy it. I must be M out of S.M….. Anyway… I am so freaking glad you’re back! I was longing for you and Alice’s “sex” voice. Gah, what an expression. Yes, indeed, I love her voice. Alice needs to get some courage and talk to Dana. Afterall, one she loves is DANA!! :) hee heeeeThank you so much for posting.!! Plz plz post soon!
Ok just so you know i have loved ur story from day one and sorry i havent commented sooner just wanted to be up to date before i did!! Althou not reli tht happy with u right now JULES??? Why she goin to Jules for?? I know its hard for her to go to Dana after everything but after that fucking hot Bathroom scene everyone inc Alice herself knows tht those two are meant to be together and need to start taking steps towards it even if it is slow …. please lol!!! Anyway rant over reli reli love ur story cant wait for ur next update lol!! :) PPS x x
please update again
You really love this whole cliffhanger business, don’t you? I might be a little upset if you didn’t do it so well. I’m really glad you updated, and this isn’t even close to being filler. It’s necessary for the story, if Danish didn’t wallow in some sorta thought bubble for awhile after everything that’s happened, it wouldn’t make any sense. I just hope Jules doesn’t take advantage of Alice’s emotional state. Not that I think she’d do that deliberately or anything, but…yeah. Okay I’ve been rambling for like ever here, but what I want you to take away from this dissertation is that you rule muchly.
8 Pages is not filler, It was pretty damn good…Please get Dana and Alice in the same room…Love how you write your A&D!
OK. So your filler makes my filler look even more like filler. ;-D Seriously — this was a great chapter. I understand that Alice is going through a lot, but, she really should have called Dana. Leaving her hanging wasn’t very nice. I’m glad Dana is committing herself to the relationship in a way she didn’t the first time around. Thank goodness Shane, Tina and Boo were there to help Dana. I love how your articulated both Alice and Dana’s thoughts on the situation. It is interesting how they both are thinking the same way — what Alice needs is what Dana is prepared to give her. But they need to talk to realize that. Argh. Bad Alice! I understand her reasoning, but, what if Dana sees Jules over there? Does Alice know Dana is leaving soon for NY? Can I beg you to PPS?
oh i missed you swiss.. so happy about the update oh yeh..i love reading what u write i could just read it all day lol wat an interesting ending i hope i dnt have to wait another month for an update BUT if that is wat it takes then i will thank you!!!!!!
Whoosh! Ok it’s taken me ohhh-4 months and some odd days to comment but here i am! PLEASE update, i just cannot stand playing out all of the possible scenarios in my head. You have really done an excellent job with this whole adventure. I just have this dying urge to know what happens-how does it go with Jules-with our beloved Danish….what happens? Only you know and i am begging for an update or even a small glimpse of Alice and Dana happy and together. But another couple of months wont bother me if that’s how long it takes for you to post somemore of this beautifully written story. Thanks so much swiss!
This is the first Danish fic I have read and still one of the best. I’ll die if you don’t finish it, lol. I need HAPPY DANISH!!! Please update!!!
