Let it Ride- Chapter 2
Chapter 2
Much to Dana’s astonishment, Alice seemed to be preparing to follow them out the door to Shane’s car.
Catching Dana’s perplexed expression, Shane threw an arm over Alice’s shoulder and said, "Come on Dane, even rock stars have to bum a ride sometimes."
Alice scoffed and pushed her glasses up her nose with her forefinger, a gesture so inherently nerdy that Dana couldn’t help but find it adorable. And comforting. Maybe Alice was just a regular person, after all.
Shane squeezed Alice into her side and said, "Seriously, did you get the Letterman booking?"
Dana’s head shot up as she looked between the two of them, who were walking along casually in front of her.
"David Letterman?"
Alice craned her head around to look over her shoulder at Dana, smiling shyly as she affirmed, "Yeah, that guy. You’ve heard of him?"
Dana couldn’t help but laugh at Alice’s wit. "I think I might have seen his show a couple times."
Alice and Shane continued walking a pace ahead and Dana had to shake her head with a somewhat disbelieving grin. Sheesh. David Letterman.
Shane was saying, "So, did you get it or not?"
Alice didn’t seem entirely phased when she said evenly, "No. The talent manager said we were good but they wanted to move in a different direction."
Hearing this, Dana shot forward to stand on the other side of Shane as she asked, "Are they crazy? Your band is amazing!"
Peering around Shane, Alice offered Dana a comradely grin. "I know, right? I didn’t know you were such a fan."
Dana looked over at Shane and said truthfully, "I’m not. Or, I wasn’t. Jeez. I am now, I mean. Shane played me some of your songs earlier and then hearing you guys tonight, I mean, wow. You’re really good, Alice."
Dana was surprised to find Alice blushing under the dim lights of the parking lot. She coughed and said nonchalantly, "Well, thanks. I mean, I’m glad you had fun."
Shane gave a light groan and said, "So who’s gonna be at the afterparty? Anybody good?"
Alice winked at Dana and said dryly, "Why don’t you lick your lips while you ask about prospects, Shane? It would add to your charm."

This is a great story. Please continue with it. The chemistry between those two is just so natural. I love it. Post soon.
Another chapter so soon?!? Squee!! Loved this line “so she did what all Faribanks did; she ignored it” — that is Dana in a nutshell. Great job incorporating Helena into the story. I love the sweetness between Alice and Dana at this stage. I’m looking forward to you next post!! Oh — and please — let’s keep Dana alive. OK? ;-D
