While Alice always boasted an expansive vocabulary, she found it difficult to come up with any other word to describe Julianna, besides beautiful. She couldn’t help but stare at the woman tapping her foot anxiously on the bar stool, sipping on a club soda with lime, before noticing that Alice had arrived. Her long blonde hair was pulled back in a low pony tail, and she was dressed in jeans and a simple black tank top. Alice guessed Jules was an inch taller than her at most, and had a similar body frame. And while she seemed to not need a stitch of makeup at all, a bit of eyeliner was all she appeared to be wearing. Overall, she figured that Jules was the type of girl who was beautiful but had absolutely no idea about it…and that to Alice was the best part.
But while Alice was as nervous as she could ever remember being on a first date, Jules had initially seemed to be embodying a far worse bundle of nerves. Especially when she managed to spill half of Alice’s glass of wine down the front of the writer’s shirt. Julianna was visibly mortified, but Alice tried to make her feel better by joking that at least it was white wine. This seemed to put the singer more at ease, yet her face was still flushed with embarrassment twenty minutes later. And somehow Alice managed to find that humble awkwardness endearing as well.
Once their food arrived and Alice had finished off her two glasses of wine to Julianna’s one, they both seemed to relax a bit more and found it easier to get to know one another.
“So you’re telling me that you listen to my show every week, and you still wanted to ask me out after that?” Alice didn’t really believe what she was hearing.
Jules couldn’t help but laugh. “Why is that so hard to believe?”
“Come on, let’s be honest. I’ve been pretty candid on air lately, and I’ve gone on some pretty major rants about love and loss and all that shit I’ve been up to these past few months. You’re telling me that all of that endeared you to me?”
“Let’s just say it was the total package, not just your radio persona, that made me ask you to dinner.”

LOL I’m glad you liked my Carrie rant and the only thing missing was the cosmo since I was smoking lol. However after the last cosmo incident I had I vowed not to drink them again for a very long time. Anyway back to what’s important, your story, your amazingly fantastic story. Jules, I half love her half hate her, she’s so damn cute and funny and perfcet and that’s great if I wasn’t such a danish lover. My heart is being torn betwene Alice’s sanity and a danish relationship, your making it sound like they belong apart because it’s easier on them both which makes me very sad :( I think Dana’s reaction was totally realistic to her character and if I was Lara I’d be major pissed off. Ok that’s enough ranting for now, awesome post, you’re putting me to shame big time. PPS xx
i feel bad for dana – she sounds so confused. but then at the same time i am happy for alice that jules sounds so awesome. thanks for posting so fast and ggreat job.
It seems like everyone on this site is trying to out me lately, in some form or another. First De_leish_ous outs me as a Danish perv, now you’ve outed me as a Jules fan…before long there won’t be any closets left to hide in. I really liked this one, you got a lot accomplished in only a few pages. I just have to ask…and feel free not to answer if you don’t want to, but…are you a Helacious fan, by chance? Just wondering. And as to Alice having a type, Jules does have dark hair, right? ;) I’m such a nerd, sorry. Anyway, you do a freaking fantastic job of getting into Dana’s head, and if I were Lara I’d be really pissed off right about now. You’ve managed to make me feel bad for the Soup Chef, so be proud!
Watching a Jet game with Patriot fans … sorry for you! Are you going to hang out with your Pats friends next week too? I find myself liking Jules a lot. She seems to have real depth. I hope she’s someone Alice can fall for.I think Dana doesn’t wants to be so selfish as to mess up things for Alice, but I’m sure she’ll blow up the thing with Jules – eventually.Go Helena! Speak the truth! :-D
Well let me start off by saying that you can never talk to me too much about music. lol. It’s pretty much my life :D Moving on to Jenny Lewis, I have met her several times and she is amazing and beautiful. I will have to tell you the story sometime of how we first met but it was awesome and hilarious and she’s fantastic! Very short though…which surprised me a bit…anyways, RK is my all time fav band and her solo album was excellent! PM sometime about them. Ok so on to the story. lol. This was awesome and I love where it’s headed. I don’t know how I missed this story but I am glad I found it. Keep up the great work and post again soon!
