Grinning as she slurped on a Hi-C, Alice decided that all was right with the world. Suddenly, her chest tightened and she sneeze once. Twice. Three times.
Dana and Helena looked up from the breakfast table with "bless you" on both sets of lips.
Alice waved her hand wildly about as if to signal that nothing would ruin her day. "Thanks, girls. But I’m good. So, Helena, we still on for lunch at Bruno’s?"
Helena barely looked up from the page of notes she was studying as she said distractedly, "Hmm. Yes, of course. I’ll meet you and Dana there, all right?"
Alice winked at Dana, who was suddenly looking remarkably guilty. "Great. Sounds great. We’ll see ya there, Hel."
Pausing before she exited, Alice said thoughtfully, "Hel, maybe you should wear those Calvin Klein pants. You always look really good in those."
This did catch Helena’s attention and the Brit looked up suspiciously. "What the hell? The houndstooth ones? Bit dressy for Bruno’s, don’t you think?"
"What? No way! You’re British, Helena. You could show up in riding boots and jodpuhrs and people’d think it was adorable."
Smiling in amusement, though still curious, Helena said dryly, "I’ll remember that next time I want to go to McDonald’s after a fox hunt."
Alice grinned, saying excitedly, "Exactly, man! It’s totally not fair. All you have to do is say "hullo" and people are lining up to do your bidding. You have such an advantage in the seduction department."
Dana was laughing along now and Helena eyed her skeptically, "That’s patently untrue. I can count on one hand the number of times my accent has made it easier for me to get a woman in bed."
It was Alice’s turn to look skeptical and she said, "Whatever, Lady Helena. Just wear something stunning. I want everybody looking as good as I feel today! Is that a crime?"
Helena shook her head in a manner that suggested infinite, inexhaustible patience where whimsical, eccentric Alice was concerned.
Dana watched the warm interaction between them and smiled, picking up her backpack to follow Alice who said a quick see you later to Helena before leading Dana out into the corridor. Where she promptly sneezed three more times before they’d even reached the elevator.

(Love it)3 These 2 are absolutely adorable. I was so happy to see them talking about their issues. Let the game begins, Operation Hellcat Picasso! I hope Alice wouldn’t get a cold and ruined her concert. From now on, A would not be allowed to fall asleep in the living room without a blanket or D by her side. And that is an order (just joking). fripster, btw I will not be able to comment if you post again at 3am EST. I need to get up at 8 tomorrow. So pardon me if I skip one. Until next time, have fun.
You are posting faster than I can comment. I love it!! This chapter really emphasized that no matter how much more “experience” Alice has, they both have very little real relationship experience. Loved the wake-up trick, Operation Hellcat Picasso, etc, etc… You do an amazing job balancing the drama parts with the sweet and funny.
so youre totally spoiling us (me) with such frequent posting…not like im complaining or anything, i absolutely adore this story. but im just hoping that u keep up the way u have been b/c im so addicted.
Hey frip you sure did post super fast,,LOL,,,but I liked that. I am really like this Dana and Al, plus adding Helena in as Als best bud. and now let the fun begin with getting Helena and Bette together….Great chapter frip.
These two women are soooooo adorable!!!! I really wish that Dana was still on the show. Anyways, is Alice getting sick??? Let’s hope not, but then Nurse Dana will be at the rescue. I can’t wait to see what will happen when Alice and Dana try to hook Helena up with Bette. This should be very, very interesting…PPS
You are a Danish writing genius!! I loved the talk they had in the car and how each one is starting to open up about how they are feeling. Alice’s speech was very heartfelt. I loved the wake up trick Dana used on Alice, how funny. I hope Alice doesn’t get too sick with the show coming up and all. Keep up the good work and the quick posts.
Seriously, child. Do you EVER sleep??? I feel like a tard only doing one post every week or two, sheesh. That and the fact that I barely ever manage to leave comments for you tells me that I need to quit working/studying so much and seek out a way to pay bills by fanfic. This chapter was adorable sweet. I love the way you write these two their relationship is so stable and mutually loving despite both of them having uncertainties. And since you don’t like it when I say your story is better than mine, I’ll refrain and leave it with nothing more than “this is freaking awesome.”
awesome. both posts were excellent. i love the super quick posting. i hope i wake up tomorrow to find another. no pressure. they are so cute. and thanks for not completely being scared of my danish stalking. its only a mild case, really, i swear. have a good one.
yay! you posted again! I love the fact that their talking, and of course the hellcat picasso operation sounds great.:)
