“Well, I’m not sure I’m feeling well enough to follow through on anything more than kissing anyway… especially with you,” Dana replied, exchanging a small grin with Alice as they each recalled their enthusiastic lovemaking sessions in the past. “But, I hear what you’re saying. I can be patient, if you can.”
“Hey, ‘patience’ is my middle name,” Alice retorted, sitting back down on the floor, feeling relieved that Dana understood where she was coming from.
“Right,” Dana scoffed.
“What?” Alice asked, raising her eyebrows quizzically.
“Al, remember our ‘rules of unattraction’? How long did it take for us to forget all about those?” Dana asked, smiling as she remembered their utter inability to keep their hands off each other when they were first getting together.
“Things are different now, Dana. I can be patient; you’ll see,” Alice reiterated, her voice turning serious. “Here, give me your plate; I’ll get you some spring rolls.” Grabbing Dana’s plate off her lap, she walked into the kitchen.
Leaning back on the couch, Dana breathed a sigh of regret after Alice had left the room. She knew Alice was right; they couldn’t just dive back into a relationship together as though nothing had changed. There were still obstacles between them, not the least of which was her own illness. But, now that she knew Alice still had feelings for her, the rest of the things standing in their way suddenly seemed a lot more surmountable.

“I think it needs to go up a little higher,” Jenny said, weaving her way backwards between tables and customers to get a better perspective on the sign she and Shane had made the night before to celebrate Dana’s first day back at The Planet. Max and Shane were trying to hang it against the wall behind their table before she arrived.
“Is that better?” Max called out, reaching up to place the banner as high as possible.
“That’s good, Max,” Carmen answered from the other side of the cafe. “Shane, honey, your end has to come up a bit.”
“Ok, ok,” Shane grumbled, standing on her tiptoes on a chair that was balanced precariously beneath her. “How’s that?” she asked, her voice squeaking with the strain of reaching up to hold the banner against the wall.

A&D think too much, they need to as Shane put it get over thier stubborness…This is good…PPS
this was such a could chapter we had Dana and Alice kissing and then we had drama.
These two need their heads knocking together – everyone knows they belong together except themselves. PPS
Yay for updates! I was wondering whether/hoping that Miss Lara would come into the picture somehow-you know how I ‘heart’ her as a character, with Dana OR with Alice, so the interaction with her and Danish will take some getting used to for me, even though I know everyone and their dog loves Danish;) So, I was glad to see how you’re weaving Lara in. I feel so bad for her, really. But I like how you have Dana remaining steadfast about expectations–very believable. (Hmmm, Lara just needs to have her world rocked by someone else, no?) All said, I look forward to seeing how you continue developing the story and I’m digging the way you are unravelling Danish. It’s such a refreshing change to the end of S3/all of S4, haha. Aww, you’re sweet, I’m doing well, and some day somewhere down the long road I may get enough time and confidence to write something on my own, we’ll see…you and Gold are tough acts to follow;) Looking forward to the next update!
Love this story. Always wished someone would write a storyline picking up from S3 (minus the dana-dying, of course). Thank you for doing it justice. PPS!!
argh – communication has always been such a problem with these two and you obviously captured that perfectly. but what a great chapter. i like the jenny with a thick skin comment. oh how true! post soon.
This 3rd chapter was a great way to spend part of my lunch hour! Now you’ve got the right mix going….nothing like a little added drama with Lara’s return…I was wondering if she’d some into the picture at some point. I loved that Dana wanted a danish by the way! You’re very good at building the tension between two characters by the way- I was very sad when the kissing scene come to an end. Also, had to laugh aloud when Jenny mentioned she had thick skin and could handle negative reviews! Good stuff again, blue! have a good weekend…
