Let it Ride- Chapter 2
Groaning, Shane watched forlornly as Alice made her way out of the kitchen.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————–
Alice found Helena and Dana on the balcony, chatting like long-lost friends.
By way of greeting, Alice called out from the doorway, "Hellcat, get away from my date!"
Alice missed the conflicted look that passed across Dana’s features as Helena wrapped her in a bear hug. "Darling, I’ve missed you. We must never be away from each other for so long, again. It was dreadful."
Alice sighed and in a horribly over the top faux British accent she agreed, "Yes, dahling. It was loathsome. Abominable. Wretched."
Someone Dana didn’t know poked his head out the door and said, "Helena, Lucy’s here."
Helena said quick, but not disengenuous goodbyes, and dashed inside.
Alice looked on, an amused smile on her face as she said to Dana, "I can tell how much she missed me."
Dana was quiet, and though Alice hardly knew her, it seemed out of character. "You okay? Listen, if I made you uncomfortable by calling you my date, I apologize. I was just kidding."
Dana watched Alice carefully. She had thought she had masked her confusion well. "No, it’s- it’s fine."
Alice handed another beer and sat down across from her. Though she didn’t look it, she was just as nervous as Dana. She really liked this girl. She had no idea if she was straight or gay or even interested in being friends beyond the casual aquaintance they were starting tonight. She had no idea that in Dana’s head, a similar turmoil was roiling.
She liked Alice. A lot. Which was not in itself a problem. It was everything that came after liking Alice that was troubling Dana. Did Alice just want to be friends? Did Dana want more? Could she have more? Would Alice consider being in a secret relationship? The thought felt meoldramatic to Dana on every level. She wasn’t even famous. But, if she did get famous with her tennis, then Alice wouldn’t be an option, right?
Alice, deciding that slow and steady was the best way to play it, broke the silence by saying, "It seems that you and the Hellcat were hitting it off."
Dana nodded, latching onto Alice’s proffered oar as if she were drowning. "Yeah! She plays tennis, y’know."

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
