Let it Ride- Chapter 9
Helena noticed the strident note in Alice’s voice and said bemusedly, "Am I allowed to go to the ladies’ room?"
Alice blushed, completely annoyed by her own behavior, saying, "Of course. I’m sorry. I’m just hungry?"
Helena smiled at Alice’s bashful apology and said, "Of course. I’ll be as expeditious as I can possibly be."

Dana looked up from her menu, saying gently, "Al, honey, you’ve got to chill out. It’s just lunch."
Alice peeled her eyes from the window and turned to Dana, saying, "Yeah. Yeah, I know. I’m suddenly very afraid of what could happen if they find out they’re being set up."
Dana rolled her eyes, saying matter of factly, "It’s a little late to be worrying about that, don’t you think?"
Alice smiled sheepishly and said, "I could always lock Helena in the bathroom."
Dana chuckled and Alice watched her for a moment. Leaning in closer, she said quietly, "You look really pretty, Dane."
The tennis player looked up at the unexpected compliment. Smoothing a section of her hair back self-consciously, Dana questioned shyly, "I do?"
Alice rolled her eyes and said emphatically, "You do. I really want to kiss you."
Dana sighed; her eyes closing as she breathed in deeply. "I want you to kiss me."
Alice nodded regretfully before saying, "Well, let’s be honest. You probably shouldn’t be anwwhere near me right now."
Dana looked up sharply, unaware of Alice’s meaning.
Alice shrugged and clarified, saying, "I’m probably dying of plague. No big deal, though."
Dana burst into laughter and she said dismissively, "You don’t have the plague, Al."
The other girl pretended to look worried and she said, "We’ll see."
—————————————-
Bette and Shane were standing just outside Bruno’s while Shane finished a cigarette and related the tail end of one of her romantic interludes.
"I’m serious, Bette. This girl is gorgeous, right? And a killer in bed. And she made me fucking breakfast. I didn’t even know we had any food. And I have a hotplate for Christ’s sake! Yet she makes me this incredible omelette."
Bette said incredulously, "Where do you find these girls, Shane? And for future reference, she sounds like one you should hold onto."
Shane stubbed out the cigarette, saying, "I know, right? But she was the one who was like, it was fun. I’ll see you around. I didn’t even have to do it this time."

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.
