The lecture became a little more lively as the professor’s coffee seemed to kick in as he moved around the room. Alice was listening with more interest, though her hands tugged absently at the collar of her linen blouse.
Finally, the class came to an end and the three friends waited for the other students to filter out of the classroom before they went down to talk with Bette.
The older girl, dressed simply but elegantly in crisp brown pants and a camel colored sweater, greeted them all warmly.
Bette grinned at Alice and said cheekily, "Did you have a nice nap, Al?"
Shane laughed and Alice glared at her, less than seriously, saying, "It was delightful, thanks."
Bette said easily, "Glad to hear it. Now, we’re still on for lunch, right Shane?"
The messy haired girl looked up and with a bright smile in Bette’s direction she said, "Yep. One o’clock. You can ride with me."
Bette began packing away her portfolio, saying, "Sure. Sounds perfect."
Alice was studying Helena appreciatively and when the TA looked up, her own features registered confusion.
The musician said without preamble, "You look good today, Porter. I like that sweater on you. Mmhmm."
Dana and Shane rolled their eyes at Alice’s words, wondering if she could be more obvious or more strange.
Bette just said uncertainly, "Thank you, Alice. That’s nice to hear."
Alice nodded as if her remarks weren’t totally random and without preface. "Anytime, Porter. Well, you ready, Dane?"
Dana slung her bag over her shoulder, frowning mildly as Alice sneezed again. She was about to ask Alice if she had allergies or something but Alice was already telling Bette and Shane goodbye, with a pointed wink in Shane’s direction.

Helena walked into Bruno’s looking like a vision. Her lustrous dark hair was wound up loosely, in a more relaxed approximation of the rigid buns her mother preferred. She had worn the pants Alice suggested because in fact, they were bloody attractive on her. Her cool, blue-gray eyes scanned the room before they settled on a round table nestled in the corner where Dana was sitting alone.
Approaching with a grin, Helena waved briefly as Dana smiled warmly and stood to greet her.
The tennis player had seen Helena enter and spent thirty very distracted seconds marveling at how gorgeous the other girl was before she snapped out of trance; amused at her own gayness. Though she had no doubt that Helena’s effect was felt equally amongst anyone with eyes.

This was great. Even though B&H wanted to be right they couldn’t help but notice how hot the other was. And Alice,Dana&Shane reaction was so real. Thanks for the update!!
looking good. Dinner might just have lots of fireworks
WOW…Let’s just say that Operation Hellcat Pissaco went down the drain! lol Bette and Helena are so much alike it’s scary, but what will happen with the dinner between the two Alpha ladies??? Will TK reappear or will she stay in the dark?? Wonder what redhead Shane was talking about, hopefully it’s not L. Anyways, as for Alice and Dana, I love the little part in the classroom–a little nap. I’ve done it a few times myself, but anywho, really hope that Alice isn’t getting sick bc it would be a bummer if the show would get canceled. Maybe A should slow down, so she doesn’t end up passing out or something like an illness. But I know you wouldn’t disappoint me! I’m glad that you’re still enjoying my story, and thanks once again for this great chapter. PPS.
Haha, looks like Alice’s weirdly thought out set-up might produce some sparks after all. I really hope you’re planning to out Ms. Fairbanks a tiny bit if Al should get famous. If not, that’d be sad for the both of them. I mean, she doesn’t have to shout it from the rooftops, but a little open affection toward her rock-star girlfriend wouldn’t be the end of the world. But I dunno, I’m writing her long after she’s come out so this is new to me. Anyway, I adore the cuteness of Danish and the funniness of Shane. The two privileged birches duking it out over poetry publication dates didn’t do much for me, but then, I despise pretentious people so that might have a tiny bit to do with it. I’m so not a type A with a need to be correct. And Texas, huh? I’m not too terribly far from you. Go America…or something. Haha. Anyway, post soon and all that jazz. I’m babbling my ass off, but it’s after 4am so at least I have a slight excuse.
Whoa Frip I see that this luch date of sorts was so great I loved it,,Bette actually wring and Helena being gracious about it and then to have them actually go out on a date,,,LOL. I can only imagine when both women find out that they ahd been put together by their friends,,great chapter there frip, but is Al getting a cold and if so this is not good at all!!!
ooohh operation hellcat picasso! I am loving this, I can not wait for your next update. I hope Alice will feel better soon. I’m glad I checked in here, I’m almost late for dinner(pathetic) but I am by no means regretting that I paused to read.x0x
Love it love it love it…that’s all I have to say really
Been there, done that, and even got several T-shirts from different bars. I have also left the contacts in my eyes countless times because of some serious partying. Now I just wear glasses most of the time and I won’t have to deal with seeing through fog in the morning or afternoon or evening after. You are not deluding yourself. I feel the same way. It was quite obvious when D turned away from A after hearing about the date with Chandra and what she said as Alice was leaving for her date. Also when they were out shopping on the way to see Dr. Love. God why couldn’t they let her live? I must have asked myself a thousand times. The truth is I frequently re-watch the entire 3 seasons, focusing mostly on Danish. Now you tell me how pathetic I must be. I shall get to Goldrun15 this weekend. And thank you for postponing the red head. There is another story out there right now with D having her 1st time with L not A. I was stunned because A was with Tasha. But there had to be something between A & D. I couldn’t find myself commenting on that story. About the deleted scenes, you can put a few together in a chapter. I am sure it will be a blast because of the way you imagination and writing. Anyway back to this chapter. I really wonder how much they learnt in class with all the distraction. I couldn’t stop chuckling. Operation Hellcat Picasso = Operation Hell Piss-Her-Off. I was just about to give A, D & S an A for the effort for trying to set B & H up as consolation prize. Then you surprised me with a dinner date. This was fun to read. Now I can retire for the night. Thanks again for another sweet Danish night cap.
