    Resolutions

    She let out a short laugh.  Career?  Was that what it was all about now for her?  She’d dated a few times during the year, but no one seemed to pique her interest.  She’d attributed that to losing Dana, but now she was beginning to wonder if unresolved feelings for Alice had anything to do with the reluctance to let anyone new into her heart.

    “Come on Lara, stop your bellyaching.”  Shaking her head, she roused herself from her self-pitying mood.  Glancing around the room she tried to formulate a plan for the remainder of her things.  As she began to work once more, the unexpected chirping of the cell phone startled her from her reverie. 

    “Oui, hello?”  She glanced at her watch, wondering who might be calling at such a late hour.

    “Lara?”  A familiar voice crackled over the connection.  “By the sounds of it, you’re still in your Francophile phase.”

    “Alex!  How do you always know just when to call?”  Lara’s face broke into a grin.  Alex had been a close friend since college, and though they rarely talked anymore, they had a tendency to pick up the friendship immediately upon reconnection.

    She heard the throaty chuckle.  “You must be sending me those psychic vibes.  So….you’re still doing the French cooking thing?”

    “Yes, and I should be pissed at you for calling at an obscene hour.”  Lara shot back with a smile. 

    “Well then, I suppose I should wish you a Happy New Year….it’s what, 1 a.m. over there now?  Surely you’re out having fun, aren’t you?”

    Lara surveyed the increasingly bare apartment.  Sighing into the phone she replied, “If only.  No….actually I’m packing up my things….I’m headed home tomorrow.”

    “So…you wait until New Year’s Day to come home…and you stay IN during the holiday celebration?  Lara, are you okay?”  Alex’s tone was playful, but Lara could hear the slight edge of concern.

    “Yeah, don’t worry.  I could have gone out…and, in fact, I did have dinner earlier with a few friends.  But, I still had some packing to do, and well, New Year’s isn’t as much fun when you don’t have someone to kiss at the stroke of midnight.” 

    Alex guffawed.  “What do you mean? That’s just free license to kiss everyone in sight!”

    1. Gold Gold Gold, so good to have you back. It’s pouring rain here today and you brought in a little sunshine with your new fic start. I really liked the parallel New Year’s celebration perspectives, and it does not cease to amaze me how nicely you work in backstories for Lara and Alice, intertwined with what we saw on the show. You know I love and miss the Lace pairing–and I’m so happy to see them through your eyes again. Can’t wait for the next update….! PPS

    2. Well, Lace is popular with me, and I’m very glad you’re writing this. I’m *still* annoyed at how they despatched Lara to SF without a proper goodbye to anyone. I really liked the start, I’ll be waiting for the next chapter. Thanks for posting.

    3. Well, I’m obviously a sucker for anything about Lara and Alice, and I’m so glad I’m not the only one keeping the ‘ship alive! Can’t wait to see where you’re going to take this story, and I eagerly anticipate the next update. Thanks for this.

    4. Great start. Despite my better judgment, I actually enjoyed Alice and Lara together for the one episode we saw of it. I was disappointed with the lack of closure on the relationship as well, although, not surprised they just dropped it like that. Can’t wait to see where you go with this. PPS.

    5. Gold, how is it possible that one chapter in, I’m totally addicted to this story? You’re making me miss Lace all over again, but I’m sure your story will fill in the gaping holes left in this relationship on the show. Though I have to say you fooled me with the first moment between Alice and Shane – I thought we were going to have some Shalice for a split second! Anyway, I’m very glad you’re writing once again, and I’ll be checking regularly for your update!

    6. here you are! i´m soooo glad to see you back at writing a new lace story :-)i´m just back from a friends birthday brunch. this is a perfect end for the day. can´t wait for more. big hug, naren
