Alice sat in her car looking at the home she had built with Dana. She could see their dog outside though the fence smelling plants and running the fence line with the neighbor’s dog. She knew Dana would be calling the dog in any second because it always drove her crazy when the dog ran the fence. Alice use to joke how the dog was smarter then Dana realized. A few minutes of running and playing guarantied Dana would be letting it back into the house. It worked better then barking at the door, and the dog didn’t get in trouble for scratching at the door.

She could see the bikes in the side yard. Two adult and one little boy’s bike. Alice remember the day they officially adopted Joey. Joseph David Pieszecki now legally Joseph David Fairbanks Pieszecki. The day Alice found out her brother and sister-in-law were killed in an automobile wreck was one of the saddest days of her life.

Then almost a year to date after their deaths Alice and Dana were granted custody of four year Joey and this sad event had caused one of the happiest days of their relationship. They became moms and a family.

Dana loved Joey as if he was hers. Though she knew she and Alice had made a commitment for life to each other she insisted on going through the hassle of the courts and social workers so she could legally be Joey’s mother.

Dana was great with him they would spend hours together. Sports was something they both seemed to love. Dana would brag about what a natural athlete he was, and she loved going out with him to play, be it basketball, tennis, swimming or riding their bikes, Dana had found her little buddy. Joey adored her, she was still famous enough that when he told his school mates his mother was Dana Fairbanks he could still get a few wows out of the kids.

Alice had a great life, beautiful partner, great son and all the outward appearance of a family that had it all. She did have it all she thought as she sat in her car. So why did she chance losing it by having an affair. She loved Dana, they had a great companionship. Sexually Dana was a wonderful lover Alice knew she had no excuse for her behavior.
