Alex squeezed her friend’s shoulder. “I’m sorry, Lara—I didn’t mean to bring up bad memories. It’s just you’ve been so hesitant to get involved since you lost Dana. It’s good to see you back in the game at least a little.”
Lara leaned back in her chair with a sigh. “Alex, I know you mean well, and I know that you’ve been worried, but I’m really okay.” She stopped, obviously torn about continuing. “It’s not Dana I’ve been pining for.”
Alex watched her friend carefully. “Someone in Paris, then?”
Lara smiled sadly. “No. She was the reason I went to Paris.”
In hesitating spurts she told Alex about Alice. When she finished, she looked her friend in the eye. “So, yeah, it was kind of nice that Sandy flirted with me. And, yeah, I enjoyed it. So maybe I am getting over a broken heart after all.”
Alex nodded slowly. “Are you sure you don’t want to talk to Alice?”
Lara shook her head with an air of impatience. “She’s already moved on. The last I heard from Kit, she was happy with some woman in the Army.”
Alex protested, “But you haven’t talked with Kit since Thanksgiving. You have no idea what’s going on!”
In a firm tone Lara replied, “It’s over.”
“Alright.” Alex knew that for the time being, this topic was off limits. Switching subjects, she continued, “So, last week was a great success, don’t you think?”
Raven’s Retreat had officially opened for business the prior week, and had received positive reviews from the inaugural campers, who had consisted mainly of employees of the major investment firm supporting the camp.
Lara speculated. “It went more smoothly than I thought from a meals standpoint.”
“Are you kidding? Everything was fantastic. The food was mentioned in glowing terms in every feedback survey we got! You are definitely our secret weapon!”
“Well, then, I suppose I should go and run inventory to see what we need for next week! Wanna tag along?” Lara glanced sidelong at Alex. “Or do you want to check out what Brent needs for next week’s ropes course outings?”
Alex started, “What do you mean?”
“Aha! Not so fun being the interrogated one, huh? Don’t play innocent…I’ve seen how you’ve flirted with Brent.”
Alex smiled. “We’re actually going to Asheville tomorrow for dinner.”
Lara grinned. “He seems like a good guy. Not at all your usual type.”
Alex stuck her tongue out. “Fuck you.”
Throwing her arm around her friend, Lara sweetly responded, “You wish!”

2 months before they see each other again? Sandy could make a move or two by then. Of course, that just heightens the drama, and make for good reading, and… Well, Gold, I sincerely hope it won’t take you two months to post again. Cheers.
Hi Gold, yep, Blue beat me to it–the thought of Lara and Sandy creating tension for a Lara and Alice Meeting-o-Rama: oh yeah baby, bring it on. Two whole months? Oh man…so much potential for tension (or time leap) there, which we all know -may- lead to even more satisfying resolutions (hehehe…). You keep me guessing as to where you are going, which of course creates the crack-like addictive effect of your marvy fics. I fully admit to checking back to see if you’ve updated and doing the happy dance when I see you have. And I love the imagery of Lara’s incident on her bike, but since she’s in good shape, she’ll snap out of it (with the help of an admirer that isn’t Alice? Ohhhh…don’t get in too deep, Lara…) I will be out of town for a spell coming up here, and away from internet access, so I look forward to being able to comment in the not TOO distant future. Meanwhile, your readership awaits;) Keep it up and as always, I can’t wait to see where you are taking our gals…and us. Please post soooooon!
Two months. Eight 1/2 weeks. Sixty days. I can see Sandy reeling Lara in, bit by bit, over the course of that time. Hopefully, Lara’s resistant to the bait. I am completely intrigued to see how this is going to pan out once the girls get down there, I can tell it’s going to be ace. Loved the banter at the beginning of the chapter too, Gold. Thank you for the post.
morning! i´m slowly waking up this morning after my nightshift, found your new chapter and enjoyed it with my first latte ;-)i´m with you, my thoughts were the same at the scene at danas camp. was one of my favorit at the show…so, alice and the girls have to wait for two month?? that´s a long time, but there are also some things to do, for alice and lara, before they could see each other again.right? and mountainriding is not the only thing… once more, sorry for my english…please update soon;-)
I *love* the way this is all coming together – 2 months will give Lara and Sandy just enough time to get more flirty with each other, which means drama galore once Alice arrives! This was a great chapter, Gold – I thought the whole opening bit was terrific, with Alice blackmailing (or attempting to blackmail) her friends into coming to camp. She does have an awful lot of leverage on them all! I’m still looking forward to seeing how the gang makes out at camp… something tells me that Bette will be a natural at the mountain biking, whereas Alice will be smashing into more than one tree… And yes, you must include at least one shaving cream fight during their stay! Anyway, thanks for the great update – I look forward to the next!
okay…. 2months?? datz a long time be4 they getta see each other…. hopefully lara stil hv feeling for alice after 2 months ..n more drama..pls… anway…. pls update asap
