small world (working title) – Chapter 10
Then comes the Devil’s Advocate. The past rears its ugly head. What if, in the light of day, everything she told Harper the night before sinks in? What if, in the light of day, Harper starts thinking getting together with her again would be a huge mistake? What if, in the light of day, Harper thinks her former life is just too much to deal with? What then?
Shane finds herself getting nervous. She tries to convince herself that she is being stupid for doubting Harper. But her past is a lot to handle and that is why she hides it from people. She’s never wanted anyone to judge her or pity her. But don’t they any way without knowing it? They judge and pity her for not doing relationships. They judge her for sleeping around.
Before she can delve any deeper into her self exploration, Carmen sits down at the table. “Hey Stranger!” She says with her usual big grin.
“Hey! Shouldn’t you be at work?” Shane says happy for the distraction.
“We wrapped early today.” Carmen says. “You ok?” By looking at Shane’s eyes she can tell she was brooding over something.
“Yeah.” Shane tries to snap out of her deep dark thoughts. “How are you?”
“I’m glad to be done with work early!” Carmen leans back in her chair. “So where were you last night? I didn’t see you.”
Shane can’t stop the smile that takes over her face. “I was on a date!”
Carmen in total shock and disbelief says, “A date?”
“I took Harper to dinner.”
Carmen actually feels joy instead of jealousy, much to her own surprise. “And how did that go?”
“Amazingly well.” Shane grins.
“I suppose you won’t go into detail.”
“Nope.” She shakes her head.
Carmen shakes her head with a smile, “That’s great Shane, I’m really happy for you.”
“I took your advice.”
“Yeah?” The shock registers in Carmen’s voice.
“I was the real me.”
“That’s amazing.”
Just then Shane’s phone jumps to life. She picks it up and looks at the Caller ID. “It’s her.” Her smile is big.
“I’ll be back.” Carmen says giving her a smile and leaving her to have some privacy.
Shane exhales and tries her best to not sound as nervous as she feels. “Hello.”

It sounds like the needy needing the needy, Harper is a little ahead of Shane. Yet they seems so close. Hope it works out for them for a long time… thanks

First of all, I admire you for awfully fast writing. It, to read all at once, gave me pain and bliss as like Shane’s feeling for Harper earlier. Second of all, you are a wonderful writers. I totally hooked up. I love the way you describe Shane’s and Harper’s thoughts or their reactions. Thanks for this great story and post soon. It’s hard to wait for the next update.
Thank you all for you comments, they are most appreciated. I’m so happy that you guys are digging the story. I know how faithful we all are to the characters of TLW and it’s storyline, so it was a scary thing to post this. When I write, I write everything long hand, I’m old fashion that way. I am not one of those people you see at coffee shops with their laptop. I’m the girl lost in thought with her notebook and walkman. I hope to have the next chapter or so transcribed and posted by tonight. There is more to come, but it might take a while for it to arrive. I will do my best to be speedy. – xo b.
