But, Alice’s words were quickly cut off when Lara brought their lips together with forceful certainty. Lifting her hands up to Alice’s face, Lara wiped her tears away gently with her thumbs. Alice’s initial shock at Lara’s actions swiftly gave way to relief, and she wrapped her arms tightly around Lara’s waist, pulling her closer with a weak moan. Eventually Lara tore her lips away from Alice’s, leaving both women panting breathlessly.
“You don’t have to explain anything to me, Alice,” Lara said, leaning her forehead lightly on Alice’s. “I know you wouldn’t let anything happen with Tasha. I’m just so sorry I ran away this morning.” She felt her own tears blurring her vision as she looked into Alice’s face. “Have I fucked everything up?” she asked fearfully.
In response, Alice gave her another soft, lingering kiss. “I was going to ask you the same thing,” she said with a faint smile after she had pulled away.
Lara released a heavy sigh of relief as she realised that she still had a chance to explain herself to Alice. “Can I come upstairs with you?” she asked hopefully. “We should talk.”
Alice’s smile grew brighter as she nodded firmly. Grabbing Lara’s hand, Alice led her up the stairs to her apartment, still feeling shocked but overwhelmingly grateful for the sudden change in events.
“Would you like some tea?” Alice asked once they had entered her apartment.
“Sure,” Lara replied gratefully, following Alice into the kitchen.
While she made the tea, Alice stole repeated glances over at Lara, who was standing awkwardly against the counter and appeared to be extremely nervous. She kept shifting her weight from foot to foot and tucking her hair behind her ear, as though she needed to do something to occupy her fidgety hands. After Alice handed her a cup of tea, she noticed that Lara’s hand shook as she brought the cup to her mouth.
“Let’s go into the living room, ok?” Alice suggested.
“Ok,” Lara agreed, and followed Alice down the hallway. They sat together on the couch, and turned slightly to face each other. Lara said nothing, but took another long sip of her tea. She seemed to be organising her thoughts, and as much as Alice wanted to break the silence between them, she forced herself to remain quiet until Lara spoke.

awww!!! that was so cute….i hope that is the last of a running lara we will ever see!! although…im sure it would be a nice view from the back of lara running away…hmmm….what? oh sorry, got lost in my own fantasies!! lol great post keep it up.
I did not see that coming but I am glad to see that lara has started to open up to alice in will help them both in the long run as long as the both talk to one an other great update I love it please post soon
Love it. Really, Lara should be kept around for season 4. Looking forward to the next champter (or two). Excellent chapter.
Blue, you do not disappoint (my knickers are back in order, thanks;)) I love how your fanfics unfold and how you’ve portrayed the Lace journey so far. Excellent update!! Very asute weaving in of Tasha’s backstory, consistent with the cues we’d been given before. Bravo to Tasha for being mature about realizing that she and Alice are bound for friendship, and to Alice for being there in that capacity. Could it be that our heroines are growing more self-assured and trusting? I say amen to that. And hey, it does seem to be true that couples with that ‘i have to have you right now’ vibe are not to be messed with, isn’t it? And helloooo, Lara’s history-slash-demons, revealed to us through her self-reflection on her relationship with her family, herself, Dana, and also Alice was just damn tasty. I almost want her to give Alice that smooth shell she found, as metaphor for her new self-awareness and continued journey. I liked the touch of her not having even told Dana about her father situation, but then now willing to first admit it to herself and also realize she needs to share with Alice (again, suggests growth). And I, the total SAP, got all warm fuzzy about her letting her sadness out in the form of some honest CRYING into the arms of Alice: the one she loves and the one who loves her back. Sigh. Oh and btw, the tidbit about Alice finding Lara on the STEPS? Brill. Wow. Wow. Wow. Looking very forward to seeing how this tale continues, maybe even plenty of room for further, to swipe Gold’s sexcellent term, Laranlysis (paging Dr. Alice…paging Dr. Alice…) and of course, crazy hot lovesex? But I’ll leave that up to you as to when that fits in most appropriately, tee hee. Cause with these two…it’s gonna be special. Like your fics!
Excellent! Really like these Lace stories! PPS :)
hey blue! Well done, and to be honest, I don’t think you lifted anything from my story…I love the look at Lara’s history, and it certainly helps explain her actions in Reunions! So, if you want to give me credit…I’ll take it :) ….but it’s really not necessary! There’s plenty o’room in the Lara-nalysis department! (ugh, I can’t believe I just typed that!). I love that Alice was so patient, and I think the whole Tasha thing made great sense as well…..really, the whole coming out makes sense in light of the break-up, I think you’d alluded earlier that Tasha’s closeted nature was problematic for Alice, so it makes sense she might want to debrief with Alice…and I can see the whole getting drunk and passing out after such a bad scene with the parents. So….the flow, great, the resolution, very satisfactory! looking forward to the next chapter, as always!
Well, at least the Tasha thing is cleared up. And as for Lara, I’m glad she’s going to stop running. She’s got more than enough reason to stay put. Chapter was ace, blue. More, please!
