Three hours later, the party had definitely started. The whole gang had gathered around Shane and Jenny’s living room, and the wine and conversation were flowing freely. Bette, Tina, Shane, and Jenny had managed to squeeze side-by-side on the couch, while Kit, Angus, and Helena sat in separate chairs around the room. Lara found herself kneeling on the floor beside the coffee table with Papi, and across from the loveseat where Alice and Tasha sat cosily together.
Very cosily, Lara thought, glancing at the couple for the thousandth time that evening as she poured herself another glass of wine. Tasha was half-sitting on Alice’s lap, with her arm slung around Alice’s shoulder. It seemed like an overly-possessive gesture to Lara, though she recognised that she wasn’t the most unbiased judge of anyone at the moment, especially Tasha. Although Lara wasn’t sure how much she had had to drink, she knew she hadn’t had enough to fully erase the pain of witnessing Alice cuddling with someone else. Trying in vain to ignore the fact that Tasha was gently stroking Alice’s shoulder, Lara made yet another desperate effort to shift her attention back to the group’s conversation.
“So, you’re saying that you wouldn’t fuck a Republican? Even a hot one?” Papi asked Jenny quizzically.
“Republicans don’t have the capacity for hotness,” Bette interjected.
“Yeah, they’re too thick-headed to be hot,” Kit agreed.
“Besides,” Jenny added, “how could you get turned on by someone who believes that gay people are the spawn of Satan?”
“Well, surely a Republican woman who would be willing to sleep with me wouldn’t think that, would she?” Papi retorted, looking around the room for confirmation. “Shane, come on, you wouldn’t care about sleeping with a Republican, would you?”
“I don’t care for political labels,” Shane said enigmatically.
“Ah, an anarchist in our midst,” Helena said, raising her glass in a semi-toast.
“No; more of a political agnostic, right Shane?” Tina guessed, and received a smile of agreement from Shane.
“But,” Alice chimed in, “whether you believe in Republicans or not, there’s always the risk that you might get into that whole gay-guilt thing, where they want to fuck you but they can’t make up their mind because they’re worried it might be evil or something.”

first off a big shout out to Midtown manhattan! Hells kitchen… lol this was just the kicker blue so this IS how S4 will go right? lol if only wishes would come true. Big kudos on the use of Papi character even tho the papi thing just sucks. Helena scared me here so another kudos for u. This looks like its gonna be a bumpy ride and im on it for sure! keep up the greatness and post soon plz :)
Ouch! Hel fire..lol..she is right though..their actions & decision need to be honorable b4 any possibility of a reconnection. Don’t care much for Papi character, Shane is bad enough. Nice update thanks!
I’m glad Helena had a little chat with Lara. Everytime the going gets tough, Lara gets going. When Dana became ill, Lara went to France. ALice starts to get close to her, Lara goes to Manhattan….hmmm…do we see a pattern ? Lara has committment issues and as much as I think her and Alice are cute together, I hope she doesn’t hurt Alice again. Thanks for the post. PPS.
oh and you also rock for keeping B&T together in this story :)
there are so few lace stories out there, and i have to say im extactic that you have this one! its really amazing an di love it! please post more soon, and can we get tasha out of the damn picture? i already dont like her…
nice work, love the whole lace ship so this fic is definatly going to turn out to be a fave. Post soon!
I am loving this!!!! Keep up the good work.
I just read the first two chapters & I’m definitely intrigued. While I will always be a Danish fan … I do enjoy Lace & would hope that they get a chance on TLW.
omg i LOVE IT! It’s totally satisfying until the premier of S4, I’ll be really interested to see how it turns out. Did I mention I love it? I loveee Alice and Lara and I don’t know why. I just connect with them. This story is fabulous and I love how protective Helena was, she made such a good point. I love Helena. Wow, it’s so crazy how things have changed over the season. I never would’ve expected to be saying these things you know? Anyways, I ‘ve done enough rambling. Can’t wait for the next update! You’re fabulous!
Welcome home… *Sad sigh* Lara IS a runner isnt she? I mean, first after the initial break up with Dana… then to paris, not to NY… What would be the background of that I wonder? Thanks for this wonderfull update! PPS!
I’ve just gotten around to read this story. I love it! It’s – just as your other story – well-written. You capture the feelings (the aching) of Lara and Alice very well. I like it that all the spoilers are wrapped up in this story. I’m actually getting excited to see how all this will develop in S4 (at first I was a bit skeptic about all the new characters on the show). I’m really glad to hear this is going to be a Lace-story (eventually)! They have to work out a lot of things but I hope they know their relationship has much more meaning than their inital reason for hooking up (out of grief of Dana).
Hm, Helena has a point. I liked it! Can’t wait for more!
I love this but I just hope that alice and lara work all of the shit out and then get back together great update
I hear what the other readers have to say about Lara’s penchant for bolting when the going gets tough, but, hey: This is still more characterization for the girl than we’ve had in the past three seasons. And that ‘talk’ just made me love Helena. I love this.
Great update, can’t wait to keep reading more. I agree with Helena that Lara has been a common denominator in Alice’s ‘low points’ BUT…the times that Lara has left, she’s pretty much been shown the door, no? What’s a girl to do? Tough one. Still, nice touch having Helena step in and say her piece and giving Lara something to chew over. Of course, I love how you keep that Lace spark on simmer mode–obviously the door has not been shut on these two, yay!, and lots of room for angsty goodness, not to mention character development. They are angry at each other yet still step back offer polite and kind feelings from the heart, so there seems to be that respect there. Of course, I’m interpreting it as LURVE. I’m looking forward to seeing how these two continue their journey. Update soon please;) Great job as always!
well of course I agree with Min, that Lara has been shown the door the times that she’s bolted….but, she’ll be allowed back in…no? Through the haze of Oktoberfest, Lara’s actions seems perfectly plausible, so….I’m hoping for some Lace reunion action soon….and as for mine…it will come early next week…I must return home first and concentrate! For the time being….I am SO glad you are writing again…and I am, SOOOOOOO enjoying your new story!Yay!waiting for more…..
