Resolutions Chapter 10
“There are a lot of days during those months that I would never care to relive.” Alice’s voice rescued Lara from trying to complete her thought. “I know what you mean about how surreal things were,” she looked down at her cup and gave a rueful snort, “Of course, I spent most of those days in a drugged stupor- so surreal was to be expected.” She looked up and swallowed as she made eye contact with Lara, who was watching her intently. Alice had forgotten how strikingly blue Lara’s eyes were.
In a voice barely audible, Lara replied, “I would do it all again, though.” Her eyes wavered and dropped and she took a quick sip of her coffee. Glancing up to find Alice regarding her seriously she continued, “I know that when we first started—sleeping together, that it was all about feeling something again. But, things changed for me….and I really didn’t know how to handle it. You became more than just some misguided therapy.”
Alice couldn’t help but laugh lightly at Lara’s choice of words. “Misguided therapy? You say the sweetest things.”
Lara flushed. “I’m screwing this up all over again, aren’t I? “
Alice smiled and reached over to let her hand rest on Lara’s. “No. But I do think that being a chef was a much better career choice than say….counseling.” She reached up and gently lifted Lara’s chin so the redhead was looking at her. To her surprise she saw tears glistening. “Hey, Lara…it’s okay.”
Lara shook her head, “No it’s not. I’m so sorry you think that I was running away from you….and I guess you are sort of right about that. But I did what I thought was best for both of us, and I never meant to hurt you anymore than you already were.” Her words rushed out in a jumble leaving her breathless and flushed.
Alice sighed quietly, “What I wish most, Lara, is that we could have those last few conversations- before you left for Paris- over again. I think we both did our fair share of running- from our grief and from our feelings for each other.”
Lara looked up, a questioning light firing her eyes. Their eyes locked and Alice nodded slowly. “Yes, there was more to our nights together than just grieving Dana. I felt it too, but I don’t think I realized fully how much it meant—you meant–until you were gone. And then, I was just too tired, and hurt, and it seemed too hard to fight.”

Mmmm…limber Alice…can’t concentrate on other things. LOL Wait…have torn myself away from that lovely image and let myself contemplate a reunion with Lara and then…ominous music please…the stalker is right around the corner. Very cool ride, but, please, let them all kick some ass before she strikes! Merry happy and all that Gold…hope all is well.
Thanks for the update! I am a Danish fan myself, but, can’t help but be drawn in by your excellent writing of Alice/Lara. I love that they talked and hopefully got past some of the issues they were both harboring. The stalker has me worried, though. PPS!
…part II: my comments are too long, I got cut off;) OK. Love how you set these two in the woodsy scene for their much-needed, distraction-free talk. And how you filled in the gaps for them on what they’ve been doing, feeling, etc. Bravo to Lara for going in for the smooch. And wait, is Jenny MIA? Who is this other ‘she’ at the end of this installment? Inquiring minds really do want to know. Can’t wait to read more soon…!
YAAAAA!!!!!!! You made it happen!!! LACE all the way….I wonder if Jenny has gone stalker onto Lara. Ouch poor Lara…hope Tasha showed Alice some kick ass kicks!!!Please continue like that it was awesome!!!! PPS!!! PLLEEEEAAASSEEE!!!!

Gold, Gold, Gold.. so super glad I checked updates on the day you happened to post—I do hope the hols have been good to you? hee heeee;) Wait, I am catching up on the last installment so let me get up to speed. Hmmm, so what I can tell so far: drama between our heroines, um hm yeah you really know how to keep us a-hanging! Also, I must add: I am overly flat-erred that you are onto -my- comments since I revere -your- fic writng;) OK, more (hopeful as in will keep you writing?) wit after I read this latest installment. But I must say, so far: you really know how to keep the tension a-comin’? And I do mean..coming, hopefully (
Please don’t remind me how I’m slacking off on my story. I’d much rather read other people’s works these days. And, yes, yours is one that I look forward to reading. Okay, what’s with the stalker? That’s new. But I do love how Lara keeps forgetting about Sandy when she’s around Alice. And: *squee* for Alice and Lara!
omg….. help me god! I have tons of essays to write but your writing is so good, and like so magnet I couldn’t keep my eyes off of it!!! so, Alice and Lara finally talk and kiss.. *blush, blush* I wonder who the stalker can be? Eversince, the stalker’s narrate the clues have been hanging around my head, yeah… It can be Sandy, she’s definitely number one suspect, or it can be someone who’s crazy about Alice considering that she or he’s been watching wherever Alice was…. It can be….. revived DANA!!! yeah, stupid me. Nway, I have this feeling something definitely ominous…. I hope Alara make up and be all lovey dovey before this starts though….. YESH YESH Alice’s sqeal at unarmed bunny, so funny. Her sarcastic remark. O, she just couldn’t resist Lara’s enticing lips. lol Lara you go gal! have Alice all your own! yeppy! good post! PPS
this morning i was checking the updates and couldn´t believe my eyes, a new chapter of this story! i enjoyed to read this. alice and the bunny lol, very funny one. hope to read a new one soon!can´t wait for it!oh, i have to go for a walk, tasha is somwere outside :-)frohes neues jahr / happy new year(your german is perfect!)
Stalker?! Lace reunion! YES!! But…stalker? (Why do I think there’s more than one? I thought it would be Jenny, all Grinch-like at the citizens of WeHo-ville making merry without her, but the last bit made me think it was Sandy? See, now I’m worried about that bunny that crossed Alice’s path… I don’t want to see an Alex Forrest re-enactment. Eep!) Anyway, very nice convo between Lara and Alice, with a very nice finish… hope the next is soon. (As for my story… I stupidly vowed I would finish the whole thing before I posted, so there wouldn’t be such long gaps between chapters… Oh, the irony. It’s coming though. Just really slowly.) Thanks for the post Gold, Happy holidays!
