“Good,” Alice said, nodding with relief. “I can’t do this right – auughh!” she yelped as Shane suddenly jostled her and sent her falling into one of the rooms. The door shut behind her. “Hey!” she exclaimed, banging on the door with one fist. “Not fair, Shane! That was dirty!” Sighing and knowing she was stuck, she let her forehead fall against the door a moment.
“Now she has no choice but to talk to Dana,” Shane said, leaning back and keeping Dana’s hospital room door shut with her body weight.
“Should you really be interfering like this?” Bette argued. “Maybe Alice should be allowed to figure out what to do on her own.”
Kit snorted. “Please. If you leave it up to those two, they’ll never get back together.”
“Is that what this is about? You expect them to get back together?” Bette demanded, raising an eyebrow. “That may not be best for either of them, whether it’s now or ever.”
“They still love each other,” Shane contended stubbornly. “I can see it.”
Bette sighed but said nothing.
“Sometimes you have to let people figure these things out on their own,” Jenny spoke up wisely, her eyes darting from Carmen to Shane. “They may not be able to see it, but eventually, they’ll have no choice but to realize it and have to deal with it.”
“Al?” a groggy voice said from behind her.
Alice drew in a sharp breath. Dana. Slowly she turned around. “Oh, um, hi,” she said lamely, giving a little wave to the rapidly blinking Dana, who was struggling to sit up in bed, her thinning hair rumpled adorably about her head.
“What are you doing here?” Dana asked, rubbing at her eyes with her fists while yawning.
“I dunno,” Alice shrugged, tracing the pattern of the floor tiles with her foot.
Silence came over them, and Alice continued making squares on the floor using her toe as if it were the most interesting thing she’d ever seen. Finally Dana cleared her throat, startling Alice. “You can come closer, you know,” Dana said softly. “I’m not contagious.”
Alice slowly inched closer to the bed. “I knew that,” she replied. “That you’re not contagious, I mean.”

Glad to see your back again. I really hate these depressing stories, lol. I like that Shane shoved Alice in to Dana’s room and blocked the door. I hope that Alice doesn’t get back together with Helena, gross. Alice and Dana all the way. Great update, don’t let work get in the way of writing, lol.
*Runs around the room happily* I was about to send a search party for you :). Ouch, my heart ache at this story but I love it! Always happy to see Shane helping out. Now where’s my cello?
aaaww tragic yet Beautiful..what I like bout this strie is either Dana&Alice (cute) or Helena&Alice (Cute) ending up2gether makes me happie cuz in the end Alice would wlk away with 1 friend&1 life mate (I hope)..even though Dana being sik shouldn’t justify Alice having 2kiss up2Dana’z ass…”If it’s meant to be, I’m sure they’ll find their way back to each other”?? :) BEAUTIFUL!!
I’m so glad you’ve returned to what you do best, writing! Shane blocking Alice in, is my favourite but it’s painful to see Dana hurting. I know playing the cello can take up most of your time, just relax. The cello can wait, however we can’t, so post soon!
