Lest I Forget (3)
I think the security that I wouldn’t leave her was really helping Alice to work through things faster. When we’d first come home from the hospital, she hadn’t joked around as much as she used to, having taken on a more serious tone. I’d been trying to break her out of that shell a little, and it finally seemed to be working. She’d been starting to joke around with me like she used to, and she’d stopped walking on eggshells around me. That was probably the best thing in my opinion; not having her treat me like I was going to break. She’s always been real with me, and it had seemed like she felt she couldn’t be that way anymore. It was a million times better now that she was done doing that. She’d gone back to her old ways of being sarcastic with me and telling me when I was being stupid. I know it probably sounds dumb, but I was relieved. Hell, we all were. It was like she’d come back from some place none of us had known she was going.
“I really want to ask her to marry me,” I told Tina a while later. We were sitting at the Planet after everyone else had gone to work. I had a commentary to do that weekend, but nothing aside from that, and Tina’s studio had just finished with a film so she had some free time. We’d been reconnecting a little bit, and our respective relationships had come up.
“Than maybe you should,” Tina replied as she wiped Angelica’s mouth. “A lot’s changed since you last asked her, Dana. The two of you have made a lot of progress in a shorter time than most people do. I really don’t think she’ll say no this time. Look how far she’s already come,” she said sensibly. I sighed and nodded, because she was right.
“Hey, you and Bette will be all right too,” I assured her. Of course, there was no way to know that for sure, but she smiled at me anyway.
“Maybe,” she conceded. “Have you thought about how to ask Alice?”
I sat there in silence for a minute. I was a little ashamed to admit to her that no, I really hadn’t. The first time had been on impulse, and I really had no better plan than that. “I dunno…maybe take her to a nice restaurant or something? Do you think she’d like that?”

Yay! Cliffs of Moher! MT, how come you always manage to put something I love in your stories? I’m totally in love with Ireland, and I’ve got a pending backpacking trip all over Connemara, just beautiful!! ( Hummm…might as well propose to my boyfriend…? …i think not…not there yet :). Anyway, Am I the only one who prefers Dana’s first proposal? It was so shy and sweet… and unexpected!hehe I loved it. Well, just like nurseGemma, eager for another danish sneak peek!
Okay this chapter gave me that warm and fuzzy Danish feeling. I love that Dana decided to propose for the second time in Ireland, and it seemed just about picture perfect. Well done MT!
I love the story. I absolutley love it.
Yay i’m first! Well it is lovely yet bittersweet story as we already know but another fantastic chapeter. Feels as though we’re seeing the conclusion of ‘You’ 30 odd years down the line! Can’t wait to hear the kid’s stories and that nurse is fab isn’t she?!? ;)
I love this story of an old alice and dana reliving thier younger days and what a better way to read it just wish we could have seen it in the show but nevermind at least we have you to let it great update please post soon
Love It! Glad Dana went with the proposal in Ireland!!! WOW! I love this! I can see how this can flow for you! Wonderful!
hey, loved the proposal, I had it practically in front of my eyes, the fantastic view and all included. Very romantic. Thanx for the compliment, my english is ok I guess, but now and then I realize that my vocabulary could be a bit bigger.
That proposal was so sweet. Another great chapter. Such a great mix of the happier times with saddness of the present. It’s great!
Loved the proposals and Alice’s reactions. It is soooo Jenny to just give Alice’s story to her editor. One of the things I like about this story and “You” is that the girls work at their relationship and on their own mental health. I went to Ireland many years ago and can’t think of a better place for a proposal. How romantic that Dana had the limo show up to take the right to the plane. I can’t wait for the next chapter! Thanks!
