Suddenly Alice‘s voice filled the room, starting up one of Stereo-Hart’s better known songs, causing the crowd to go crazy. Everyone was having fun, including Alice. She couldn’t remember the last time she did a small gig like this. It was amazing having this sort of freedom once again, able to muck around and just have fun with the music. She continued through a number of faster songs, her mini-gig culminating in one giant screaming/guitar fest, to which the crowd went ballistic. She swore they didn’t stop clapping for at least five minutes after she had got off the stage and returned to where Bette and her friends were sitting.
“Ha ha that was great Al. You still have it in you,” Bette said warmly. The others shyly mumbled similar congratulations and Alice smiled when she realised they had had no idea who she was previously.
“Thanks B” Al looked at her watch, realising that it was close to one, and that she had to be up in five hours to fly to New York for the week. She cursed silently, not wanting to leave but knowing she had no other choice. “*****, I have to go. I need to catch a plane in six hours.”
The reactions of all the people around her were similar to her own, all wanting her to stay, but knowing she couldn’t. Bette stood up and gave her a long hug before placing a piece of paper in her hand.
“It’s been good seeing you. It’s been too long. And I know that you’re now a crazy famous rock star but Wednesday week, Tina and I are having a few friends over for a bbq, and it would be great if you could make it.” Bette didn’t actually expect Alice to come, but she did sincerely hope she could. Al looked down at the piece of paper that Bette had given to her with her number scribble across it in lipstick. She could see Dana frowning in the corner of her eye, assuming that Alice wouldn’t go and that she’d never see her again.
“I’d love to,” replied Alice quickly, shocking all those around her by her answer. She said goodbye to the gang, hugging them all, lingering just that little longer on Dana’s hug, before leaving the club.

I think I’ve missed some of the latest spoilers and they must be really bad, because all of a sudden there are just so much Danish fluff around. I can’t wait for more of this, great start!

OMG I looove this one! Romantic fluff is good and I really like the idea of Alice being a famous musician. My favourite line is Shane’s ‘We’re more surprised Bette knows someone cool than the fact that you’re famous’: she would so say that. I can’t wait to read the next one!
