    Tina wakes up…………

     

    ****Telephone rings****

     

    “Bette?” Tina answers,

     

    “Uh Tina, no its Shane…….um…Tina..we’re at the hospital, uh Dana is not doing well……at all….you should come Tina, it’s not good,” (shane’s voice breaks) “come now Tina”……….

     

    “I’m on my way” Tina hurriedly went to Ang’s room and picked up the still sleeping Ang to get her in the car.

     

     

    *********

    “Did you get hold of them…..” Carmen asked.

    “Just Tina, Bette’s phone is turned off” replied Shane as she looked into the room that enclosed her dying friend.  Alice was at her bedside, holding her hand and caressing her cheek every now and then, tears streaming down her face.

     

    ********

    Alice felt Dana move slightly and looked into her weak eyes.

    “Al……” she whispered, “it’s time to say goodbye Al…..” her voice barely audible from her weakened state.  “Dana, honey, don’t try to talk, it’s okay, the doctor will be here soon,”.Alice frantically wiped the tears falling from her face.  Dana struggled but managed to lift her hand to Alice’s wet cheek; “I love you Alice…….I never stopped loving you……” Dana coughs roughly.  “Dana you need to rest……” Alice grabbed her hand in hers. “I’m not scared Alice…..I need to say goodbye,………..Shane…..and” she stopped “They’re here Dana” Alice turned to wave them in just as Tina arrived behind the gang. 

     

    “Shane, what happened, when……” Tina was visibly shaken at the sight of Dana beyond the window.  “Alice just called us…..she has an infection…it’s not good Tina” Shane leaned in and accepted Tina’s embrace as she was struggling to maintain her composure.  Alice joined them, “she wants to see you all,…..” she said through sniffles.

     

    The gang filed into the room sheepishly staring at their once vital friend who was now a shadow of her former self……… “Shane………” she rasped.  Shane walked over to her and grabbed her hand and leaned close to her so she could hear her very low voice……….she was struggling to hold back the tears, trying to be strong for Dana…….. “Shane…….my sweet friend……you are so wise….you deserve to be loved…….let her in Shane,………you won’t be sorry, you’ll feel so alive you’ll never know you were even living before…….she loves you so much, Shane…….just let her.”  Dana started to cough, removing her hand from Shane, as Alice rushed up from where she waited with the others.  “Dana…here sweetie have some water..” she rubbed the ice chips against her very chapped lips.  “Tina?……..” Tina handed the baby over to Carmen as she made her way to Alice and Dana’s side, Alice stepped back to where the others were, giving the privacy needed, she glanced at Shane who was silently crying with her head resting on Carmen’s available shoulder.

    1. This was beautifully written. I wish it had been this way on the show only without Dana dying. Can you be persuaded to continue with this story please? :) I would love to read your version of the season. Thanks for the story! Keep going !!

    2. I agree with you…IC really did ruin that scene. It’s sad, she sets herself up for what could be these incredible scenes, yet she always goes to the negative rather than the positive…she always writes the storyline to show the bad side rather than the good side. This was heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. I won’t make you cry, cause you made me cry first. Thanks!

    3. You are so spot on. Ilene had such an opportunity after the phone message, but did nothing with it. I agree with Seahurst, unfortunately Ilene loves exploring the negative. Your writing is just beautiful…

    4. You made me cry instead of us making you cry. I totally agree with you about ic. She screwed up everthingand still has not fixed it. I miss Dana and I miss Tibette. Really I miss the show from season 1 but add Carmen to the mix.

    5. Loved it and that is exactly how it should have been. And I agree totally with Seahurst. Would love to see more of this but if you can’t, I understand. Great post.

    6. Again, I’m right there with Sea but I have been saying that for years. IC is into the negative which can and does often make for compelling TV but I just feel in this case does more harm than good. When you’re telling the same old story over and over then by all means shake it up – go for the sad/negative ending – but why do that when you’re trying to bring a story to the forefront that has never been told? Never understood that. Anyway, great alternative Kant, very compelling and reaffirms the traits in Tina’s character that we were presented with from the beginning!

    7. Be nice to you??? I would but Dana should never have had to go…the B and T was absolutely spot on…great story telling….and no I won’t pressure u to go on…that was superbly sufficient…

    8. Yup I have to agree with others…IC (assuming that IC directs the writers and the directors) sets up these wonderful scenarios and then fails to deliver over & over…I wonder if it will all come 2gether in s5??? The final season…such a shame that the potential of s1 went down the proverbial drain…

    9. oh god you are so right… IC FUCKED UP THAT SCEEN AND ALL OF SEASON 3 AND 4 AS FAR AS I’M CONCERNED… well you made me cry… i miss dana… i miss our bette and tina together… i miss the love… now all we get is heartache… i know you said this is a one time story… but think about the next sceen… thanks…PPS

    10. Aw, Dana. :( Anyway, I vastly prefer your version of Tina getting that message from Bette than the non-existent version we got from IC. And it goes without saying I prefer your ending. Thanks for this one, and post again! Cheers
