    The Laws of Attraction: Part Twenty One

    Dana
    was a natural competitor, there was little she loved more than proving
    herself to others about her skills in her chosen profession. She
    thrived on pressure and the nervous energy she became filled with
    before every match that she played. But the nerves she was experiencing
    now weren’t the same. These nerves wouldn’t sharpen her senses and
    increase her focus. They would confuse and distract, ruining her
    chances for rank advancement. 

    This
    wasn’t the first time Dana experienced a case of nerves like this. It
    had happened a few times before and each time it was the presence of
    her family and Alice that made them disappear. But this time she
    wouldn’t have that. There would be only Sharon and as much as Dana
    loved her mother, especially for the heartfelt strides she was making
    to repair their fractured relationship, she needed more.

    She needed Alice.

    Only
    this time she couldn’t have her. At least, not until Saturday and
    Sunday. Logically she knew Alice would still be with her. That the
    writer would watch her matches, call several times a day, and that she
    herself would disobey Mike and Tonya’s strict orders and listen to
    Alice’s show every night despite the late hour at which it aired. 

    But
    it wasn’t the same as having Alice physically with her. Being able to
    look into the stands and seeing her dressed in her cute version of
    athletic gear, smiling big and waving at Dana during the match breaks.
    Having her in the hotel room and being soothed by her comforting touch
    and reassuring words that took away whatever doubts she had with utmost
    ease.

    All
    of that made the goodbye ceremony she had with Alice before each
    tournament longer than usual. Because this time it wasn’t purely for
    show, the blonde wouldn’t be appearing only a few hours after her but
    instead a few days. 

    To
    speed up her arrival, Alice was taking a 1:25 a.m. flight to Oakland
    right after her show on Friday ended even though the drive there was a
    relatively short five hours. Simply because she wanted to be with Dana
    as soon as possible. Despite the tennis player’s attempts to hide it,
    she knew quite well how nervous Dana was and she wanted to be there for
    her.

    “You
    don’t have to pick me up at the airport,” said Alice with an
    affectionate laugh. They were making the final trip down to Dana’s
    Subaru with her luggage and talking about Alice’s flight on the way. “I
    can get a taxi or we can ask Tonya or Mike.”

    1. OK, yoou made me late for work again. Somehow when you post a new chapter, I have to read it immediately. You do the happy Danish SO well. And I loved the ugliest dog in the world story.

    2. ahhh – back from the dark side – it feels so good! Love happy danish! And she does love her lots and lots!

      They were almost like a never ending wave of reassurance that never failed to splash over you when you were feeling your very lowest and helped to wake you up to the fact that people cared for you. – What a great line!

      The list of things she loved, in chronological order! so fitting.
      Dreiser – simply awesome!

    3. This was too poofy. I don’t know that is just the word that comes to mind. I should also say that poofy is extremely good. I loved how this chapter made all my Danish anxiety dissapear…. and now I have to listen to all those songs that Alice put on that cd. ;-)

    4. Ah, I love Leslie Gore. And this story is totally Danish escapism. I love the Helacious, but ah, Danish is so unrelentingly sweet and adorable.

      We’ve talked about most of this already but…

      1. How cute is Alice and her mix CD?

      2. The big bucks from public radio discussion

      3. Poop logs. Cos they are. And tootsie roll tainted fingers

      4. The Ugliest Dog in the world. I’m still so traumatised from him

      5. Rich’s strangely girly laugh and the bet. Ha! Not a huge sum of money, but definitely one that will get some decent sushi.

      And finally, your reference to the lines. Aw.

    5. It makes me really happy to see there is no Danish love lost here. I think I’ve said this before, but just you underestand Danish–the danish I think would exist if they didn’t exist on a tv show that needed to create weird ass drama in order to tell stories.
      As mch as I am enjoying your helacious story, this ode to Danish is first in y heart of hearts…

      Love to see Dana so in love–it’s really nice (I hate using the word “nice” to describe something, but it is).

      Thanks for this story-it makes what season 3 might be, a lot more bearable.
