Lest I Forget (11)
“I’m sure we could find something to do,” I replied, grabbing her hand and holding it as I rolled onto her for a kiss. She let me kiss her for a minute, then pulled away with a smile.
“I’m sure we could, too, but I think we can take a break and entertain. We’ve got the rest of our lives to spend time in this bed, baby.”
“I know…” I said, trailing off sadly.
“It’s okay. I promise I’ll lavish attention on you once everyone leaves, all right?” She grinned and kissed me. “Just because the honeymoon’s over doesn’t mean I’m done doing things to you. We’ll just take breaks every now and then.”
“Oh, I see. Our life is just sex, sex and more sex with the occasional break rather than the other way around?” I asked playfully as she got out of bed and headed for the shower. I almost didn’t hear her answer, as focused as I was on the sway of her hips.
“Isn’t that how it’s supposed to be?” she asked, sounding genuinely baffled. “Come on, let’s get cleaned up and call everybody. Maybe we can get Chinese delivered or something, unless you want to cook on our fancy new kitchen stuff?”
“Delivery’s fine,” I said as I ran into the bathroom after her. An hour later, when we’d finally managed to pull ourselves away from one another long enough to actually bathe, get dressed and make phone calls to get confirmation, we were sitting on the couch in each other’s arms, watching ESPN and sharing a sandwich.
“I have to go to Chicago in a couple days,” she said nervously as we watched coverage of some kind of track meet without really paying any attention to it. I looked down at her and wondered why the hell telling me that was making her nervous.
“Is everything okay?” I asked gently.
“Yeah, I just really don’t want to go. They want to discuss my book tour. I know I sorta did one when the book was first released, but since it’s getting good reviews and the next one’s coming out next year they want me to go across the country again, only hitting more cities,” she said quietly.

Another excellent chapter, MT! This is really such a moving story. It’s funny — I can empathize with Dana. When the story started, I expected Alice to not make it. I know I should be happy that she will, but, I am still sad that she will lose her ability to talk. And, yes, I know they are not real people. You just write them so well that it is hard not to think about them as such. You are doing a great job in writing what Dana is going through. You get into an almost “institutional” mode when you are keeping vigil like this. I think her talking about their past is a good way to get away from that for at least a little bit. I’m glad Dana is thinking ahead about getting Alice some help for the depression that she might feel. I’ll be curious to see what the real deal is with Alice and the Chicago trip. Thank you so much for the update. I know it must be hard to write such an emotional story when you are feeling down. I’ll add by hugs to wondering’s and my hopes that you are feeling better.
Awesome chap…ya even managed to get jenny mellowed with age
Hey, sorry to hear things are so difficult for you at the moment. The story as always was wonderful, I’m glad that Alice seems to be pulling through a little bit but the challenges ahead seem pretty enormous. The relationship you have written for this pair over their lifetime however gives me hope that they will have the strength to come through it. Sending you big hugs and hoping the sun starts to shine for you!
*gives hugs* Tis is a very good chapter MT. I agree with Magoose that with your stories, you write them so well that I can’t help but sometimes feel it’s real. Your stories are all very moving, yes even the short ones *wink* I hope everything will be okay MT. Thanks for the chapter.
Once Again Amazing!!! I love the flashabacks, so freaking adorable! I never want to get out of bed either!!!Hope you are feeling better! Put your face in the sun a little bit, it always makes me feel better!!
