And truthfully, that wasn’t really a problem because very few people did know the extent of their relationship, thought Alice with a wry smile.
What troubled her wasn’t the reception from anyone who might hear the music but the reception from Dana herself. Alice knew it was a fucked up remnant from her childhood but she had never exactly been the forthcoming type with her feelings.
The few times she did manage to express the true depth of her feelings it usually left her feeling trapped and regretful. She hated the feeling she got when she was completely, soul-baringly honest about her emotions. Her greatest fear was pity or obligation from her loved ones.
Logically, she knew that the times she had truly been honest with Dana it had gone remarkably well. Yet something inside her made her almost pathologically frightened of doing it again.
Alice now wondered why she had allowed the guys to convince her to put the track on the CD.
Kicking a rock on the street forlornly, Alice missed the rock and slammed her bare toe into a yellow parking bumper.
Hopping on one foot in an impressive display of agony, she cried out despairingly, "Oh, fuck a duck!"
———————————————————————
Tina sauntered into the newspaper office carrying her backpack and the notes from her interview with Dana. She also had some photos from the tournament that she wanted to turn over to the art department.
Dropping her things heavily on one of the battered tables, Tina waved at a few people who were milling about before going to sit down at a bank of computers.
She let her hand rest on the blocky mouse for a moment before she decided on simply editing an existing piece. She didn’t have the energy to begina new one after her long, boring day.
Aside from Dana and a few friends from classes, Tina still hadn’t had the chance to go out and meet many people. The first few weeks of school had been spent filling out job applications, doing interviews, and organizing her apartment.
Tina was an extrovert by nature and the few weeks without significant contact were draining her.She had only been typing a few moments when one of the assistant editors approached.

First Frip just take care of yourself and be safe with them hurricanes,,,,,,now I so missed your story, but was w/o my laptop cause it was with the TECH who can’t seem to still find what is wrong with it,,,LOL…anyway loved this story!!
This was yummy, lol…pps
Hey, Fripster!! Loved the chapter. Again I am struck by the detail you put in (the masking tape name on Bette’s door). You really have a talent for providing detail to set the environment without going into too much detail (if that make sense). Parent’s weekend is shaping up to be quite an event, eh? ;-D With Dana’s parents and also a possible Bette/Helena/Tina confrontation… As for 6 days: My heart is Danish. I love to see them fight through their problems and get back together stronger. If anyone can figure out a reasonable way to get the girls back together in 6 days (and 4 parts) I know you can do it. But I am with you for the journey no matter how it ends up. Thanks again for the wonderful stories!
Awesome, it’s good to know someone else knows what the hell I’m talking about when I mention EItS. Haha up here they’re pretty unknown, but I totally agree with the titles being poetry. I absolutely adore them, just like I adore this story as well as 6 Days. Glad to hear you’re okay! And please don’t feel pressured or like you need to explain your absence or anything. Like you, I was hooked on the World Cup and devastated when they lost so badly. I swear I want to punch that Marta in the face. And Solo should DEFINITELY have been keeper that game!! Gah. But anyway, yeah, I heart this and I heart you for writing it.
yay! hopefully no more hurricanes and no more absent dana. this was great. so glad youre back.
I thought I’d never see the day hahaha:D glad ur back frip! so everythings a-okay?where’s Dana though?bringsexyback in the next chap? hihihithanks again frip!;D
:)
Cross our fingers, this is it for the hurricane season. I hope fixing your roof is not a major repair. It can be such a drag. Glad to hear that you spent some time away from the keyboard to watch the women’s world cup. You really do not owe us any explanation for the lack of postage. I am simply happy to know that you are safe and I think I can speak for everyone that we love your stories so much that we don’t mind the wait. Your falling asleep with the soup reminded me of my 4 degree burn on the side of my leg with a heating pad. I remember waking up with a really bad hangover and a large blister on my leg. I hope you did not get hurt from the cup of soup. Seeing what you wrote to MaGoose, I think it could be either way. You have one sweet story going here. That will make up for “6 days” if A & D wouldn’t reunite in this 4 parts (chapters) story. There might not be enough time to work things out. Just my opinion. Back to this one, I felt kind of bad for A for worrying about the song. If someone write a song about me, I think I would be flattered and happy. But in D’s case, there would be repercussion. I could see how hard A was trying to protect D. Would this lead to a “D coming out” chapter? Now this is really getting interesting, T going to interview H. Wow, I can’t wait to see the triangle. Would it be B & T or T & H? I guess I just have to wait. Thanks fripster again for this fascinating story.
Great your back as love your story – but where’s Dana?
