Resolutions- Chapter 4
“Thank God I ride bikes, or I’d gain a ton from all the great new food you’re introducing me to,” Sandy joked.
Lara lasciviously surveyed Sandy’s lean figure and replied with a wink, “You don’t have to worry. Anyone who can pull off spandex cycling shorts with such stellar fashion can stand to have a truffle now and again.”
Sandy laughed. “I’ll take that as my cue to continue my work out. See you at seven?”
Lara nodded. “I’d best get a move on, too.”
Sandy waved and went out to her bike, as Lara moved to the register to buy her cookbook.
Just as Lara finished her transaction and stepped onto the street, one of the clerks walked to the check-out stand and placed an advertising placard for viewing. It read:
Queen of Her Own Solar System
Alice Pieszecki founder of

“The Interconnectedness of Lust”
*-*-*-*
Bette, Tina, Shane, Helena, Papi and Jenny all burst into hysterical giggles as the group stepped onto the street.
“You!” Alice pointed at Max. “You are so demoted….no more public relations for you…go to your mainframe and don’t come out for two weeks.”
Max protested weakly, “I tried to get you to review the press release I sent, but you were too busy.”
Alice rolled her eyes. “Queen of my own solar system???? In what galaxy did you even think that might be a good idea, and how the hell did you think the ‘potential clients’ would interpret that?”
“I would have to agree that at least half the women in there thought you should be speaking from a different astral plane altogether,” Helena added helpfully.
“My favorite was the one who asked if a Taurus screwed a Scorpio would that open a wormhole between the galaxies?” Shane snorted.
“What does that even mean?” Tina asked.
“I think she was referring to the cataclysmic personality clash that could occur from such a volatile mix of auras.” Bette answered seriously.
The group looked at her silently.
“What?” Bette sniffed, “I was into astrology back in the day.”
Tina stifled a laugh. “Come on Nostradamus, we’d better try and figure out where Raven’s Retreat is.”

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 =)
