Lara wasn’t the type to stress over an outfit. She knew enough to know what worked on her and grew up in boarding schools which meant she also knew what to wear and when. So when she found herself looking at a fourth possibility, she was surprised by the realization that she was trying to dress to impress a seven year old and a five year old.
“You’re beautiful in anything you wear,” Helena said softly from the doorway. Lara screamed involuntarily and turned to face Helena, fright written on her face. “I am so sorry.” Helena rushed across the room and took Lara in her arms. “I should have known better.”
“What’s wrong with me?” Lara asked. “It’s been a month…”
“You don’t need to be in such a hurry,” Helena held her tighter. “It takes time.”
But how long?”
“Look at how much has happened, how much you have done already, my love.” Helena kissed her forehead. “Lara, darling, I can’t begin to imagine how hard all of this is for you, but I can tell you that you amaze me with your strength and your courage. Even if you don’t see it in yourself.”
“All I’ve done is get my life back on track,” Lara shook her head. “But I can’t get me on track. I still feel so …lost… most of the time.” She stepped back and looked Helena in the eyes. “The only time I feel like me, the real me, is when I’m with you.”
“You’re not alone in that,” Helena said quietly. “I didn’t truly find myself until you loved me.”
Lara pushed her discarded outfits from the bed and extended her hand to Helena, who hesitated. They had not been together since the attack.
“Please,” Lara said simply. “ I need you.”
“Are you sure?” Helena cupped Lara’s face and planted a careful kiss on her soft lips. Lara pressed herself into Helena and deepened the kiss. “We can stop anytime…”
“I know,” Lara interrupted with a glimmer of a smile, “but we won’t.”
Bette checked her email one last time. It was an unsuccessful attempt to keep her mind occupied because there was a better than even shot that her plan could fail miserably.
Tina was looking forward to seeing Bette, but was dreading meeting her at the house that had been their home. She rang the bell and waited, wondering why she couldn’t bring herself to just walk in. A small smile played across Bette’s lips when she opened the door and saw Tina there, consumed with an apprehension she didn’t fully understand.

Wow – what a way to leave us hanging on – you better post again soon!!! Winnie is one bitch, it should have been her who went head first over the rail. You write an awesome tale and fantastic Danish. Keep it coming please and often.
Okay. I’ve had a little time to process this now, and after careful consideration, all I have to say is this: Winnie simply must get her ass kicked. End of. That about sums it up. Thanks for a chapter that’s going to leave me wondering til you post again, which I really hope is soon. *sigh* cheers, SG.
WHAT? WHAT? WHAT? (seriously I feel like Lil’Jon over here) OMG Alice NOOOOOO!!!!!! Amazing, I even read the Bette and Tina parts and I don’t even read the Tibette parts of my story. I’m so glad I’ve caught up and I have to say this is a great chapter to begin commenting on. I’m glad you post more often than I do otherwise I’d be going through amazing withdraw. Keep up the great writing.
She fell on her head or fell head first?! :O either way it’s horrible! How could you do that to poor sweet innocent Alice, ok maybe she isn’t so innocent, that bathroom scene prooved that, nice job on it by the way! Anyway you do have to post soon so I can get my next fix of your story. :D Peace out xx
No, no, no, no, no! You had to, didn’t you? There always has to be drama. Just when I thought Dana and Alice’s biggest problem was going to be Dave. I should have known that something was up from the very start, when you assured me that you’re “all about the Danish.” It was a great update. I was happy all the way through, until those last few paragraphs. Loved the bathroom scene. Melissa always rocks. I also loved the black pearl choker. I guess Alice did get something better than a scarf this time. :) Now, Alice better end up just peachy after all this, not dead…or comatose…or paralyzed. Maybe just a whole lot of blood and Dana comes swooping to the rescue, applies pressure, stops the bleeding…and beats the crap out of Winnie. :) Sorry, I got a little carried away with my daydreaming. Anyway…great job. Keep up the wonderful writing. I can’t wait for more.
Right so I was so surprised by the whole Alice thing that I forgot to mention how much I love Jennifer Garner…Ah Alias and TLW together, it’s almost too much my heart, she can’t take much more. Also I loved the Think Pink concept with the pink tennis balls omg with would be a dream to design for…actually I might design something for fun that’s just how much I love it.
ok now you need to update and soon.. please let alice be ok.. god this story just keeps getting better..
WTF!?! WTF!?! WTF!?! Sam…I know you said to be ready for shit to hit the fan…but you didn’t say anything about Alice hitting the deck! OMG OMG OMG!!! That was horrific! And awesome damn it…and here I was about to give you the, you kick ass for the whole week, award by mentioning Jennifer Garner…who I am in love with to the point that if she was any hotter, she would be above Leisha Hailey…that’s how much I love her…and then…AND THEN!!! You pull a dirty little stunt like that…you’re mean…really really mean…and damn it…I love it. Well, at least we got some Danish lovin’ in…ok so…I think Alice fell into a bed of roses, right??? Isn’t that what you were thinking??? Yeah…she can walk that off no problem…This kicked ass…PPS. Don’t be a slacker like me!
OMFG!!! how could you do that to Alice? Dana is so gonna kill Winnie. you have to update this now
WHAT – where did that come from? this should be interesting.
ummm, SammysGirl? did you say that your updates were going to be once a week now? And you just left Alice sprawled on the lobby with a head injury? for a week???? Head injuries should be seen to immediately, right? Waiting anxiously aside…great update! looking forward to hearing more…and good luck with stuff!
A short sharmen part again but it´s worth every single word!!!!!!!It´s awseome to see Shane shane getting to know herself step for step. and how much carmen is helping her with this.I totally love this parts!Great job!
WTF. seriously, never saw that coming. don’t let her die
Oh dear lord!! I was just about to say what a wonderful part and now it was wonderful and dramatic! Please please post soon, don’t leave us hanging like that for long!! :)
I am…speechless. Without speech. All I can say at the moment is that you’d better update soon or I’ll be hunting you down! (Loved it, but cliffhangers drive me nuts!)
aww, no! Girls fight! But not the funny kind. Ok, who wants to smack Winnie? I guess Dana after this..I hope Alice is ok.Great as usual, can’t wait for more.
AAAHHHHH!!!! How could you END it like that?! Sorry I haven’t commented in a while, but I’ve been keeping up with this story, and this chapter was awesome! I hope you post again really really REALLY soon so we can find out what happens!

omfg did u have to do that to Alice, couldn’t she have stepped aside and let Winnie going flying??? you gotta post soon now girl.
okay, after rereading I just have to ask…will you consider using my idea for Dana to beat Winnie senseless with her racket now? She doesn’t have to kill her or anything. Just leave a few net-looking bruises.
Wow…the drama…who does Winnie think she is…I’ll tell you who she is…she will be prisoner G4793458 especially if Alice dies. I love the conversation and tenderness between Bette & Tina they can make new memories in a new home. Please keep posting.
Loved it up to the end, when Alice fell..She has to be okay…I love this story…I love that you had Jennifer Garner there…nice touch, very detailed…Please make Alice okay!
Winnie is out of her fucking mind!!! I love how you’re making Shane work through her battles and Peggy finally stand by Helena.Don’t let Alice die!!!!!! Dana needs her. Winnie will be lucky if our girls don’t kill her, especially Shane.
No way! You just had to end it like that didn’t you… really great… again. Absolutely loved it and I just hope that Alice is ok. Please.

So, umm, yeah…I didn’t see that one coming. Who could hurt our beloved Alice like that?! I don’t know if my pleading for Alice’s well-being will help, but here goes: please let Alice be fine (as in, don’t let her die)! Oh and just wanted to say that your writing still amazes me. I loved the conversations between the couples. It’s like they (the pairings) are all meant to be.
