Reunions: Chapter 4
Shane put her arm around Lara and looked at her understandingly. “I know all about leaving when things get rough, Lara. I’ve run away from my share of problems. I mean, look at what I did to Carmen, for Christ’s sake. But, you know what I’ve learned? All that shit that you’re running away from never really goes away. It just makes you a harder person. And, the people that you think you’re helping by leaving only end up getting even more hurt.”
Lara frowned as she considered Shane’s words. She knew Shane was right; running away wouldn’t solve anything with Alice. She needed to stay and prove – to herself as much as to Alice – that she wouldn’t skip town every time things got complicated. Besides, it was running away from Alice that had gotten her into this predicament in the first place.
“Ok, I’ll stay,” Lara relented. “But it would probably be better if I tried to avoid any confrontations with Alice from now on.”
“Lara, did you ever consider that Alice might be just as confused as you are about her feelings?” Jenny asked. “Now, I know I’m not the best person to offer relationship advice of any kind,” she added with a self-deprecatory laugh, “but it seems like you two need to have a real conversation about what has been happening between you.”
“After today, I don’t think that would be such a good idea,” Lara replied, shaking her head resolutely. “Especially since every time I’m near her, I can’t seem to think rationally, and I end up doing things that just make everything harder for her.” A sudden image of Alice lying beneath her kissing her passionately flashed through her mind, and Lara blushed deeply.
“Look, Lara,” Shane said. “I think you’ve got to take this thing by the balls. Come to the Planet with us tonight. The whole gang is having a pre-ceremony celebration, so Alice will be there, but I don’t think Tasha is coming. Basically, if you want to talk to Alice you can, and if you don’t, you don’t have to. How does that sound?”
“Terrifying,” Lara answered with a laugh. But, she had to admit that she was beginning to feel better about the idea of staying in L.A. And, if she was completely honest with herself, the prospect of seeing Alice again, even under awkward circumstances, was appealing. In fact, it was the thought of never seeing Alice again that had stopped her from calling a cab to take her directly to LAX after she had packed her suitcase that afternoon.

alrighty then….so now we have the third party out of the way….it’s just the whole communication thing that’s the issue now! Great update as always….and I do like the twist of Alice leaving at the end. Now, how to get them back together again? I anxiously await!
Run after her Lara, run after her! OK, Tasha out of the way. Check. Need to talk about why they both keep pushing each other away despite their mutual hotness for each other (Lara’s bolting, Alice’s freaking insecurities). Check. Hot ‘n heavy makeout session after getting it all out…check? Thanks for the update, can’t wait for more soon, you are building the tension big-time! Great post as always.
lmao at smile_sadly’s comment its trueee! stupid jenny! go back to ur clowns darn it! SO GLAD tho that Tasha made a quiet exit and kudos on the switch a rooo that Shane did lol very slick. I loved this chap and the part that really got me was the switch at the end between Alice leaving now and Lara not able to get her to stay! you genius you! cant wait for the next chap so dont keep me waiting tooooo long plz :)
I agree with everyone, but all I can focus on is that, hee, Alice finally admitted that she loves Lara. And that Lara’s found the right word for her feelings for Alice. Next chapter please.
Yay, Alice dumped Tasha!! :D Again, I did not expect it so soon. But more drama to come…thanks to Jenny. But if it wasn’t Jennym then something else would have happened. ;) Ofcourse they can’t end up happily (not yet anyway). Because that would mean that this story would come to an end and we don’t want that! :D Btw, maybe Papi and Shane should get together…that could be interesting. I wonder what ‘suprise’ you have planned next chapter. :)
oh my god when will they stop running away from each other I hope that they will start to talk about how they are feeling as at the moment they are going around in circles and they need to just stop and think about what they want most in this world great update please post soon I love it and I can’t wait to see what will happen next
