Lest I Forget (4)
“Don’t be silly, it’s my baby’s wedding! Of course I’ll buy it for her. It’s her special day, she should get to wear whatever she wants to,” Lenore said with a smile when I mentioned it. “Now, Dana, darling…what are we going to do about you?”
I just stared at her as my mom laughed. “You didn’t honestly think we’d let Alice have all the fun, now did you? Come on, honey, pick something. Whatever you want, I don’t care what it is,” she said as she kissed my cheek. “I’m just so thankful this is happening at all, dear. You wouldn’t believe how scared we all were when you were so sick. I know I haven’t been the greatest person to Alice, but seeing her with you in the hospital…well, let’s just say I’ll be more than honored to have her as part of the family,” she said quietly to me as Alice and Lenore went back to the fitting room with the blue dress and an attendant.
“Thanks Mom,” I replied, deciding to leave it at that. While I knew my parents had been absolute monsters to Alice while I was ill, I decided to attribute that to fear. Alice had already done that and had been trying to convince me to do the same, but it was really difficult. Still, I could see that my mother’s acceptance of Alice and our love was genuine, so I hugged her and let it go.
“I really have no idea whatsoever,” I confessed, looking at all the wedding and bridesmaids’ dresses. Alice’s had been toward the back of the bridesmaids section, tucked away so far behind the others that I was surprised she’d found it at all. Still, after a quick perusal of everything left on the rack, nothing was jumping out at me in any way. My mom, Bette and Helena kept holding up options for me, but none of them seemed right.
Lenore was the one who ended up finding the perfect dress for me, off in another section of the store reserved for summertime weddings. It was a simple bridesmaids dress that could just as easily have passed as a sundress, silver with a few tiny blue flowers. I loved it instantly, although I felt a little strange as it wasn’t typical wedding wear.

I don’t know how you do it, but you just get better and better. Amazing chapter.
Yet again another breath taking chapter. I love Dana and Alice. This is simply amazing
sigh…that was so fucking incredible. I really think that may have been my absolute favorite thing that I’ve ever read of yours. It was just…whatever, there are no words. Sooooo good.
Beautiful! Thank you for another great update! The wedding I wish we could have seen on the show. So Danish that they woke up surprised that the big day was finally upon them. “If you gave her some security, her laptop and good food, she was pretty happy with life.” — I’m the same way! Except it could be mediocre food… I love how you wrote Alice’s reactions to the response to her book. Very “Alice”. And Gemma is a great character. Needless to say, I am looking forward to the next chapter!
I said it to you before, this chapter was sweet and cute. Looking forward to the next chapter when their children will be there…and ofcourse that special device you promised. ;)
that was realy beautiful. the vows were perfect. loved it.
Just re-read it because i was slacking like the nurse and didn’t leave a comment first time. Fabulously happy and beautiful vows :)
Aaaw yay that was so cute. Great chapter :)
Awesome as usual!
MT, I am back and thrilled to be able to read the last 3 chapters all at once. I am touched by the proposal in Ireland. A declining the 1st proposal made a lot of sense. What a great wedding it was. The wedding vows were astounding. It brought tears to my eyes. MT. you are doing a incredibly marvelous job in D talking about their past. I am in awe of how you write A’s responses. This story is truly beautifully written. As sad as A could no longer speak, their ability to communicate proved without a doubt that they were soulmates. Please let A linger a little bit longer. I realize all things must come to an end. But it is just too hard for me personally to accept it. I can’t wait to read more. Thank you very much MT.
fantastic..as usual:)
I saw you had posted and decided to keep it as a reward until I got posted…it was so worth it. Great!
