“Really?” Alex asked with a lopsided grin.
“Don’t push it. Just give her a key and tell her to make herself at home.” Lara turned back to the tray of ribs and prepared to season the pork. When Alex made no move to leave, she asked without looking at her friend. “Anything else?”
“Yes. What are you going to do about Alice?”
Lara froze. After a moment of silence she cleared her throat. “I’m going to talk to her like an adult and see if we can’t come to some sort of an understanding.” She resumed her prep work and added after a moment, “Besides, it’s only six more days, right? Then life can get back to normal.”
As if on cue, the kitchen door swung open and Sandy bounded in. She was dressed in spandex shorts and was sporting a baseball cap to mask the effects of wearing a cycling helmet for the better part of a day. She searched the kitchen and grinned when her eyes landed on the chef, “Hey Lara!”
Alex noted that Lara’s welcoming smile didn’t quite reach her eyes, and that her voice had a subdued quality when she answered, “Hey Sandy, how was your day?”
“It was fun…this group seemed to pick up the basic mountain biking skills pretty quickly. Especially your friend, Tina. She was really, really good.”
This time Lara’s smile was warmer, “Yeah? How did Bette do?”
Sandy’s head bobbed back and forth as she considered her answer. “She was a little…..rigid.”
Lara’s answering look prodded Sandy to give a more detailed explanation. “In mountain biking, you have to work at staying relaxed. Being tense is a dangerous thing on trail…it often leads to overreaction on the bike, which leads to a crash. Your friend Bette doesn’t seem to be too good at letting things flow.”
Lara laughed, “Oh my god, you’ve pegged her. Can you do that with everyone?”
Sandy grinned in return, “Not quite….for example, I thought Jenny would really be timid, but she dove right in. She crashed several times, but she didn’t show any fear. I underestimated her.”
Lara smiled wryly, “People often do.”
“Anyway, that’s not what I came to talk to you about.”

?!! You’re here, and I can’t believe I missed a post… (which I promptly caught up, and I loved it!) So… It seems a tackle and a black eye weren’t enough to shut Jenny’s yap. Maybe a muzzle? Or maybe Lara will smother her with a pillow… Lara still has to talk to Al, and now I wonder how Sandy’s going to figure into this. I’m really stoked to see you posting again, Gold. Next one when you can, I’ll certainly be reading. Thanks! (and just in case, Happy Christmas/New Year!)
Goldrun, what a happy surprise tonight! Seriously, if weren’t for fripster, I would have never read your stories, beautifully written stories. Btw, if there is ever a chance, please tell fripster, we Danish fanfic readers really miss her story. Back to this update, I am impressed by A’s slugging J. I wouldn’t mind if A did the same back in S4 when she confronted J with the book. And by saying, “I’m eager to spend some quality time with Lara,” she deserved another round. Can’t wait to read all about A & L’s talk. Thank you and looking forward to your next post.
Go Alice!!! Thanks for letting Alice punch Jenny. She deserves it. Realyl good chapter I wonder if Alcie does anythingmore about Jenny. And I am really eager to read what will happen with Alice and Lara. Sorry to say that but Lara is kinda blind at the moment. Let´s hope she doesn´t have an affair with Jenny!!!
what a lovley surprise in this early morning!! great chapter! jenny is one of my faves, but in this story she deserves what al did to her. she knows exactly, what it means to al that she is moving to laras room. and i´m sure she has a plan to bring this situation on the top. i hope she learnd from the story with the vet, that this is not the best plan, she ever had, so that she will help lara and alice at the end ;-) i wish you a peacefull christmas time and a happy new year!naren
Alice punching jenny is pricless!LOL
i think we all cherish the thought of Alice punching Jenny. Go, Alice! I’m so glad you’re continuing with this story, because, dammit, how can you go wrong with a pairing called Lace? anyway. Will Alice or Lara get to strangle Jenny now? Or will they actually get a proper conversation in? Still a great story, G.
Gold, this story is incredible. You write the two of them so well and I’m totally hooked. It’s weird to think they were just together for 2 episodes, but the fan fic has kept them alive. Anyway, I absolutely loooove Rilo Kiley! Jenny Lewis is the best. So glad to learn you appreciate good music as well :)
