    If I Fall: Chapter 9

    3 Weeks Later 

     

    To say things went from bad to worse for Dana and Lara’s relationship wouldn’t really be an accurate assessment of the past three weeks. It would be more precise to say that it went from bad to decent as long as they ignored their problems. And this is pretty much how things had gone for them since the night of Jenny’s party.

     

    Dana learned many years ago, when she was still basically a child, that if you didn’t bring your problems to the surface by discussing them, they would only be problems for you and no one else. This was impliedly instilled in her when she was growing up by her parents who found it more important to keep up with appearances than to truly communicate with their children about any real issues that may be plaguing them. Dana learned that not only are children meant to be seen and not heard, but grownups really didn’t want to hear the issues going on in their heads if it meant that they would be viewed as less than perfect. This train of thought alone made it possible for Dana to remain in the closet for so long and to not even consider telling her parents about her sexuality. The Fairbanks’ were a respected family among the wealthy, conservative, right wing sect of Los Angeles County, and it was within that social circle that Dana was bred to be a part of. From an early age, however, she suspected that something was off with the other families her own parents socialized with. It wasn’t as if Dana thought they were aliens or anything, but she could completely tell that their heir of perfection was a total farce, and like her own family, they were all living little lies that were kept locked away behind closed doors.

     

    Her mother especially subscribed to the idea that it was more important to seem perfect on the outside, than to face the imperfections on the inside. So Dana, not knowing any better, figured that her sexual preference was just another little imperfection she possessed, along with her shyness and awkwardness in social situations. She figured that if she could just focus on appearing to be the straight, "normal" daughter that her parents expected, her true feelings for other girls would not factor in as a problem for her.

    1. I’m liking this more and more every time you post, so yay or something. And I knew I could spot a fellow Helacious fan…but it’s so hard to write her properly while Dana’s still (rightfully) around. Well, for me it is, anyway. And you’re right, I do feel even worse for Lara, although I think she’s kinda digging her own grave by trying to be supportive. Poor soup chef just can’t win no matter what she does. Anyway, I hope Dana gets her head clear about the relationship she’s currently in before she goes making trouble with Alice’s new one…and yeah, I still like Jules. Please make her say “motherfucker” at least once, will ya?

    2. Poor soup chef muted? Poor soup chef my ass! If you ask me she’s the only thing keeping danish apart right now, that and Jules who seems to perfect to be true, can you make her have a penis or something so Alice can break up with her and danish get back together? Ok maybe not that, your story is doing ickedly awesome without my ‘ideas’. You describe Dana perfectly, there’s no other word aside perfect. I just hope she can get her shit together and realise that Alice is the one for her and she truly won’t find another woman better for her. You know I would be kinda happy with Helacious in season 4 since Dana is no longer around, I’ll put it that way since it hurts less :( Now I’m just typing for the sake of typing so I’ll stop and say awesome post, I need more of it, so you must do as Bradshaw says and write more :D xx

    3. Can’t wait for the party! I love where this is going! You’re doing a fantastic job my dear :D This was too short! I gotta know how the party goes damnit. lol. ok so great job and PPS. Oh and I’ll check for your PM. lol

    4. De_leish – if Jules has a penis, she may be the perfect one for Alice, and we’ll never see danish again. lolI can’t feel sorry for Lara because she’s going against her own nature, and she knows that Dana still has feelings for Alice, but hey she got what she wanted. She got Dana back, but not all of her. Dana’s ability to avoid things strikes a little too close to home, so I’m going to leave her alone on that one. lolLet’s get this party started! Soon, please. :-)
