“Really? I heard you were running away from some stuff here,” Papi said casually.
Surprised, Lara turned to face her. “Where did you hear that?” she asked, feeling angry that this stranger knew anything about her motives for leaving L.A.
“Sorry, Lara,” Papi said, though her tone didn’t sound very apologetic. “Tasha mentioned some things Alice told her about you. That’s all I know.”
“Oh,” Lara replied, not knowing what else to say. Turning back to face the garden, she sighed gently. Why should I be upset that Tasha knows about me and Alice? she wondered. Obviously, Alice would have told her some things, and Tasha did have a right to know. Yet, she couldn’t help but feel upset about hearing confirmation that Alice thought Lara had run away from her. The worst part of it all was that she knew it was too late to explain her motives to Alice. Especially when she could barely explain them to herself.
“You know, there are other women out there besides Alice,” Papi said suggestively, shifting closer to Lara on the step. “Women who don’t necessarily expect a long-term commitment,” she added with an inviting smile.
Before Lara knew what was happening, Papi had slid her hand around the back of Lara’s head and pulled her into a deep kiss. Taken off-guard in her drunken state, Lara felt herself initially giving in to Papi’s persistence. She just wanted to feel close to someone, to fill the void she had felt growing inside of her ever since she realised that Alice had moved on. But, after a few moments, Lara suddenly broke away from Papi’s embrace.
“I’m sorry, Papi,” she said as she gently pulled away. “I can’t do this.” Although Papi was certainly attractive and she seemed like a nice enough person, Lara knew that sleeping with her was not going to help her to get over her feelings for Alice.
But, as she spoke, Lara noticed a sudden movement on the other side of the screen door that led into the kitchen. As her eyes focused on the figure who was making a hasty retreat back inside, she sucked in her breath sharply: it was Alice.

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…..
