“Dana, let me get this straight. You came all this way to tell me that?” Alice asked.
Dana nodded silently, her eyes gazing imploringly into Alice’s.
Alice’s eyes were filled with tears. “That is the most amazing thing anyone has ever done for me. I just…oh my God.” Her voice broke, and she pulled Dana into her arms.
Dana sighed and melted into the embrace, burying her face into Alice’s shoulder and inhaling her intoxicating scent. “I don’t wanna lose you, Al.”
Sniffling, Alice pulled away. “You won’t, Dana. Not ever. I think we’re long overdue for a talk. I want you to understand what’s been going on in my head.”
“Good,” Dana replied. “Because I couldn’t figure it out.”
Laughing, Alice wiped some tears from her face with the back of her hand. “Dana, I was afraid you were going to leave me. I just love you so much and I wanted you to stay around, so I thought if I were around you all the time, you wouldn’t leave. But I just ended up smothering you and I felt like I was driving you away, instead. So I thought that maybe if I went away for a while, it would make it easier on me when you did leave me. Because, Dana, everybody always leaves me.”
“Who left you, Al?” Dana asked gently, brushing a stray lock of blonde hair away from Alice’s face.
“Everybody,” Alice replied softly. “My whole life I’ve been forgotten about or abandoned. My dad left, and Lenore always ignored me. She didn’t always mean to, but usually I felt like she forgot I was even around. My siblings were all older than me and had their own lives, and they left, too. Soon it was just me. Just me, all alone, against the world.”
“Not anymore,” Dana interrupted. “It’s you and me against the world.”
Alice smiled. “This has always been a problem for me. I overcompensate in the affection department to keep people around. Sometimes it feels like I might as well get as much love as I can from that person while I have the chance, ’cause eventually they won’t be around anymore.”
“I’m sorry you had to feel that way, Alice. I just wish you had told me sooner. We both could have saved the money on plane tickets,” Dana joked, kissing Alice’s forehead.

I know somebody saw the whole dream thing coming, right? Anybody? I’m surprised no one guessed it. Come on, you guys know me – always expect the unusual or unexpected! LOL! Yeah, it was cheap. It was dirty. But it had you fooled, didn’t it? Put down those stones! No throwing at me. All is right in Danishville again. Besides, I should hope that Alice would never act that way. I told you guys to wait and see what this chapter had in store… = ) Thanks for reading! Keep an eye out for the next chapter pretty soon.

Oh goody! It was just a nightmare – wheh. Yeah, I should have expected something like this, but I have my blonde moments from time to time so…. :p I’m so happy Alice was happy to see Dana in Boston. Btw, yay Boston! Love Boston!
I love your Shane & Carmen! So so happy Shane realized what she has in Carmen, and that she’s the real deal, and thus threw away that napkin with the phonenumber on it. Yes! And sweet, caring Carmen – I hope her parents accept her for who she really is. I’m fearing the worst, cos coming out to parents…not a lot of fun, but I’m hoping they accept her, and invites Shane into their family.
As always, awesome writing. It feels real when reading it. The characters act as you think they will in all the situations you put them through. So kudos. :)
I didn’t see the dream coming, but the surprise was nice. I loved the psycho comment.
