“Alice, AL, I am not gonna let you go, for god’s sake just hear me out”

Dana shocked both herself and Alice at the tone of her voice but she was determined that no matter how hard this was going to be Alice needed to know how she felt.

“Dana, you are pissed we can have this conversation tomorrow. Ok.”

“NO, no way, turn around, and believe me I am sobering up real quick!”

Alice turned around from the sound of Dana’s voice she knew she wasn’t going to give this up. Dana was closer than what Alice had thought so she bit on her bottom lip and closed her eyes just so she could get a little composure. Dana calmed herself before continuing

“Alice, listen I know I must have freaked you out back there, but I just got carried away, you touching me like that felt” Dana stopped for a brief second, she was still drunk but not as much as two minutes ago, she was starting to sober as the realism of the situation was hitting her every second. She knew she had to continue. The words that were about to pass her lips we’re going to freak Alice out even more, but they had to be said pissed or not.

“Alice I have feelings for you, I mean I like you, you know more more than friends.” Dana was looking at the floor while saying this, she hadn’t been this nervous since the day she sat before her parents pronouncing her sexuality. They had walked away from her, not wanting to hear it, run from the truth. What if Alice did the same about this revelation, she wouldn’t be able to handle Alice running from her, she was Dana’s heart and soul without that she was nothing. But like she had to tell her parents she was *****, she also had to tell Alice the truth about her growing feelings, she had risked losing her parents, now she was stood before Alice risking losing her too Was she doing the right thing? Well it was to late now, there was no turning back.

Silence surrounded the hallway they were stood in Dana really needed Alice to say something reassure her that she wasn’t going to react like her parents had, she was shitting it waiting for a reply. ‘Please Al, say something, anything’ she thought getting more and more agitated.
