“So Helena told me there was some girl in her Yoga class that she was interested in, did you see who it was?” Tina tried as best she could to diffuse the ever-growing tension between Bette and Alice. Bette looked at Tina questioningly to figure out why she knew who Helena Peabody wanted to sleep with next.
“She told me at work the other day,” Tina defended to Bette, who just nodded silently and brought her attention back to Angelica.
“Yeah, I saw her. She’s cute, I guess. If you like that tall, dark and beautiful type.”
“And you don’t?” Carmen inquired.
“Eh, it’s not really doing it for me these days. Besides, if I were to date right now, I think I’d just stick with guys.”
Shane laughed at this sentiment and Alice quickly turned to her.
”What?”
Shane, who’s mouth was full, couldn’t help but cough as she choked back the laughter.
“Mmm, nothing, Al,” she replied and swallowed what she was eating to effectively bite back her smile.
“What the fuck, Shane? Why did you laugh when I said I wanted to date men? I am bisexual you know.”
“Sure, whatever you say.”
Alice looked at her incredulously demanding an explanation.
“Alice,” Tina began cautiously. “I think Shane’s just laughing because every time you say you’re ready to date guys again, you tend to find the least available one and then get rid of him once he wants more than sex from you.”
“Bullshit.”
“Please, Al, you’re like, the worst bisexual ever,” Shane fired back.
”And what the fuck is that supposed to mean?”
“Like Tina said, I mean, whatever, you say you’re open to dating both guys and girls, and it’s really just the person inside you’re looking for, right?”
“Yeah…so?”
“So the only guys you date are the ones that you know it would never work out with.”
“Now that’s bullshit,” Alice retorted.
“Come on Al, think about it. Who was the last guy you slept with?”
“Honey,” Carmen interrupted, “maybe Alice doesn’t want to share—“
“It was that hottie Andrew,” Alice quickly replied.
“—that personal information with the group.” Carmen muttered to herself.
“And why didn’t it work out with Andrew?” Tina jumped in to aid Shane.

This story just keeps getting better and better, I was so unbelieveably excited to see all my fav authors posting in the past couple of days and not one of you guys has been a disappointment. This story is just simply amazing and you portray Alice so well, I kinda feel what we didn’t see in the show is shown in this fanfic which is comforting :) I love where you’re taking this as tragic and heartbreaking as it is, it’s also f*cking brilliant. Can’t wait for the next chap. xx
whoa! could actually feel the burn of Alice’s last words. that was an awsome chapter, looking forward to your next!!
Ouch. This is painful to read, but it’s so well done that it’s worth it. This thing just keeps getting better, and it’s so much more realistic than what we were allowed to see. It’s good to see that Alice recognized Bette’s condescending attitude, it always bugged the crap out of me. Anyway, I hope some sort of resoultion will happen soon.
I see what you mean about them barely being friends. I was thinking the same thing as Muted – “ouch”, but I must truly be evil because as much as Dana may have needed to break up with Alice – the way she did it was really crappy – and I wasn’t exactly feeling sorry for her. Alice definitely needs to get herself together, and ultimately only hurts herself by holding a grudge against Dana, but I loved her parting comment. Bette is definitely an unforgiving pain in the neck, but hey – we need all kinds to make the world go ’round. I was surprised that you made the time to update because I know you must be super busy. Maybe you’ll be able to sneak a few more updates as class assignments… Well, it was worth a try. :-)This story does keep getting better and better.
I know its cruel to laugh at someone else’s misfortune but this is very funny and very sad…PPS
Six months is a long time to avoid someone. There’d have to be an undercurrent of tension that made it hard on everyone, not just Alice and Dana. As for them “choosing” Dana, it’s maybe just that Dana’s appearing to be a bit more “in control” since the breakup. Bette and Al… well, Alice wasn’t that tolerant of Bette’s “weakness” when she cheated on Tina, so I guess Bette’s being intolerant of Alice’s. Being pally with Helena probably isn’t helping matters. They obviously still care about each other or they couldn’t hurt one another. Those two (B & Al) need to talk. And all the above notwithstanding, six months *is* a long time for the group to have to choose to spend time with either one (Al) or the other (Dana). It’d be draining. See? Your post made me think. Keep ’em coming, I’m really into this story.
God! I thought that watching the break up and awkwardness between Danish was bad, but you write so damn crystal clear and perfect that I think this is harder to handle! Please update again soon, seeing as how I fucking love this story! And by the way, I still have one more chapter to my Danish story. Maybe if you update again soon, I could work out an update from me! ;-)
