Over me: Chapter 7
I pulled up outside Al’s place, with a screech of my tyres, and jumped out. I didn’t know if I could afford to wait for Shane to turn up, so I bounded up the steps and rang the buzzer. No answer. I tried a few more times then called her cell again not bothering with the landline. It rang through to voicemail.
“Come on, come on…” I muttered tensely, about a minute away from calling the cops. I tried one last time, glancing up and down the street looking out for Shane’s arrival. Just as I spotted her running towards me Alice answered. She sounded like she’d been crying.
“Dane? I- thought you were…” Her voice broke.
“Al? Where are you?! Are you ok?”
Shane jogged up, and gestured to the phone: It’s her?
I nodded. Al had yet to reply so I said as calmly as I could:
“Alice, baby, I need you to breathe ok? Where are you?”
“At-at home.”
Ok. I sighed, feeling my heart slowing a little. Ok.
“I’m right outside, baby. Shane’s here too. Can you let us in?”
She sniffed.
“Y-yeah… hang on.”
I pressed the buzzer again and this time was allowed entry.
Shane shot me a look.
“Is she alright?”
I licked my lips. She’d better be, I thought.
“I think Ethan was here.”
Shane’s eyes widened. I guessed she was no stranger to his behaviour.
We skipped the elevator and started to run up the stairs, two at a time. I got to Al’s door first and knocked once. There was a long pause, then finally the sound of locks being opened and then at last Al’s face appeared, red and blotchy, but in one piece.
“Hey…” I murmured as she fell forward into my arms and started to gently sob. As I held her, Shane and I exchanged looks: the apartment looked like a bomb had hit it. Furniture was turned over; drawers pulled opened, colourful pills dotted the floor like confetti.
Shane stepped in, while I remained at the door, Al’s tears growing a damp patch on my shoulder. She looked around warily; checking each room, then came back to us.

I guess Ethan wasn’t as completely self-centered as I’d thought. While he was a complete jerk, a lot of the things he said to Alice made sense…well, about Dana making her crazy and all. I’m with ackemat, he seems like the kind of guy who’d manipulate his way into getting what he wants rather than using real violence. Thanks for this, I’m glad you didn’t make the cliffhanger last until after Christmas! Have a great holiday.
Wow!! i had to catch up!!! The story is getting better and better!! Hopefully Ethan is out of the picture, but i have a funny feeling that he will be waiting in the wings until he strikes again!! PPS!!!
Awesome update and thank goodness Alice was ok. I think Ethan would have had hell to pay if he had touched her, Shane and Dana would have beat him so hard. I do not like him one bit and he’s gonna blackmail Dana :( but Dana’s a tough cookie right? Alice is her most valuble posession not her ‘celebrity status’. Oh man, I’m super hooked you’re so good! PPS have a good xmas xx
I’m not sure how I totally missed this story before now. I just caught up and I’m totally loving it. Nicely done!
Hands up who hates Ethan!!!!!! Great update. What will happen with the photo’s?? PPS
Thankfully he didn’t hurt Alice. I was nervous for a few moments. I bet Ethan posts the pictures on the internet, sells them to the highest bidder and/or blackmails Dana. He had a right to be angry, but he really was a jerk – from the award ceremony on. I’m glad they’re going to take it slow. Thanks for the update.
I’m really enjoying this story & am definitely looking forward to the next update. There is one thing I have been meaning to ask … judging by the fact that Ethan’s last name is Rayne .. are you a Buffy fan?
