    “Mind if we walk a little before we head home?  I could use the fresh air.”  Without waiting for an answer, Alice struck off down the sidewalk, taking deep breaths.

    Without hesitation, Shane followed.  “Is it Tasha?”

    Alice shot back, “What about Paige?”

    Shane contemplated this for a moment before she replied.  “We’re fucked up, aren’t we?”

    Alice slowed a bit and linked her arm through Shane’s.  “Yeah, but at least we’ve got each other.”

    When they reached the end of the block, Shane snorted.  In response to Alice’s quizzical look, she simply pointed.

    Alice tipped her head back and let out a short laugh.  “That was inspired art, wasn’t it?”

    The billboard above sported an image of a well-hung Shane complete with mustache.

    “You are my best friend, you know.”  Shane nudged Alice with her shoulder. 

    Alice was surprised at the sudden surge of emotion she felt at Shane’s words.  Clearing her throat noisily, she toed the crack in the sidewalk.  “Yeah, well, you know I love you too.”

    Shane ruffled Alice’s hair.  “Come on…let’s go.”

    Turning, she led Alice towards the parking lot.

    As they walked, Alice thought back to the night that she and Shane had scaled the sign to protest Shane’s androgynous marketability.  She and Tasha had just gotten together, and she’d been basking in the afterglow of a newly consummated relationship.  Now, merely eight months later, she was suddenly single again, and wondering if she should just give up on dating altogether.

    A string of failed relationships swirled at the edge of her mind, only to be stopped cold at the memory of Dana.  Dear, dear, Dana who’d been her best friend before leaving her breathless with devotion, devastated by rejection and finally paralyzed with grief.  It was only after Lara that Alice had felt capable of breathing again.

    Alice stumbled at the sudden recollection of Lara.  Shane steadied her with a firm hand.  “You okay?”

    “Yeah, just clumsy,” Alice replied in a distracted tone.  Lara?  She’d not thought of the quiet chef in months.  But now, the memory of her face and the touch of her fingers were suddenly clearly etched in her mind.  Alice blinked furiously as if to clear her mind of the vision.

    “Al- are you sure you’re okay?”  Shane stopped and peered at her best friend with concern.  “You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

    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
