As if she’d been thinking about her recent travels, Sandy leaned forward. “It is nice to be in town for a change. I enjoyed dinner last night.”
Lara smiled. They had gone to a small Spanish restaurant that had a picturesque patio garden where diners could relax over a glass of wine and a leisurely dinner. “I had a good time too.”
Sandy took a swallow from her hydration bottle and grimaced. “The wine sure was better than this stuff.”
Lara laughed. She was still a little surprised that she’d fallen into such an easy relationship with the young athlete. Six years her junior, Sandy was affable and charming. She’d flirted with Lara mercilessly the first two weeks of camp, and Lara had been attracted to the easygoing manner of the younger woman. Despite the fact that they’d been going out for almost six weeks, they were still very much in the early stages of dating, as their combined camp schedule and Sandy’s race calendar made getting together challenging.
“What do you say we blow off tonight’s reception and have a picnic? I know the perfect spot.” Lara asked with a mischievous grin.
“Why Ms. Perkins, I believe you’re trying to corrupt me.” Sandy replied, arching an eyebrow. “And, I’m so easy. But won’t Alex miss us? She normally makes a big deal about introducing all of us to the new campers every week.”
Lara shrugged. “I’ll talk to her beforehand. Maybe we can just have a quick introduction, and then you and I disappear for the evening? So, maybe 30 minutes for you at the reception and a five minute appearance by me once all the kitchen duties are done?”
Sandy grinned. She would definitely enjoy disappearing with Lara. “Okay by me. What can I bring to the picnic?”
“How about you bring a blanket and I’ll take care of the rest?” Lara was already formulating a menu in her mind.
“I can’t resist an offer like that.” Taking another sip of sports drink she continued, “So what do you have planned for your day?”
Lara looked at her watch. “A trip to the farmer’s market for a produce run and then onto a couple more stores for some final touches on the reception buffet. My favorite stop is just down the street….the Chocolate Fetish.” She gestured with her chin at the shop across the avenue and down a bit. “Total decadence.”

I just caught up with the last few chapters, this is so great (and it’s making me miss Lara). I can’t wait to see what’s next!
And it just keeps getting better! I’ll be waiting for the next chapter.
Yup, caught this in time, wow, thanks;) I’m enjoying your regional flavoring of the tale as well, nicely done. And I could totally picture the scenes of Alice and Lara barely missing each other, sexcellent descriptions and placements of everyone/thing! Plus hello, quality wine and chocolate, what’s not to love. The stage is set indeed–love it! By the way, what do you say to having Sandy wear a t-shirt saying “Drama Enhancer”? I chuckled at your comment about her. And goodness can you imagine Lara really coming back on the show and riding off into the sunset with Alice? I guess Tasha is OK but I aint seeing any sparks in that Lace way. Not that I’m a show addict or anything, yikes. OK, looking forward to the next installment, keep up the deliciousness!
Another fantastic chapter, and very well-timed to boot (I was in desperate need of a distraction from work today)! I too loved the scenes of Alice and Lara just missing each other, but “sensing” each other’s presence. It was a really nice, subtle way to show that they are still completely hung up on each other, even though it’s been months since they last saw each other. Speaking of months, I think your time line has worked really well – I would never have guessed that you’d written yourself into a corner! :) And, I agree that it would be fun to see what would unravel Bette’s world, other than dramatic table placements… maybe snakes or some other creepy-crawly critter? That’s why I love this story idea – it creates so many opportunities to reveal interesting aspects of the characters that we wouldn’t normally see. I suppose that’s why people think of camp as a “character-building” experience… sorry, that was a terrible joke. :) Anyway, thanks for another great update… as always, I look forward to reading more!
i love this chapter! you were builging pictures in my head, so this was more a new episode as a chapter. i could see it ;-) the scene in that little store chcolat fetish was so funny, i could smell all the different chocolate flavours. loveing helena for being a chocoholic ;-)so what could i say to our little lace part? i agree with min and blue, that was great! they could feel eachothers presence after all the month, they didn´t see or talk…i´m sure there is someone for sandy,maybe max? if she is bi… lol, i always want to couple…thanks for that fast update, can´t wait to read more! hug, naren
Ack, the near misses! Loved the line about the Taurus, the Scorpio, and the wormhole… actually, that sounds like the beginning of a rather lewd joke. Dark chocolate and cayenne truffles? Does Lara just have a thing for chilies and chocolate? Excellent Gold, I’m so enjoying the story. Can’t wait for the next installment and Al & Lara’s eventual meeting. Thanks
cant wait till lara actually meet alice…..
btw, im having my ap eng language exam tmr…. however im here…. datz how much i luv this story… pls update asap =)
