Dana smiled gratefully. “Besides, I’m super tired,” she added, faking a yawn. “That flight this morning really took it out of me.”
“I know how it is,” Carmen sympathized. “We took that same flight yesterday, remember?”
“All of you?” Dana asked casually.
“Yeah, pretty much,” Bette replied. “Me, Tina, the baby, Kit, Shanethe whole crowd.”
“And Alice?” Dana prodded, trying to look casual.
Tina nodded. “She flew with us, too. She slept through the whole flight though.”
“Oh, and where is she, uh, now?” Dana wondered, trying to feign disinterest.
Shane frowned slightly. “I don’t know.”
Carmen glanced at her quickly, but said nothing.
“Look, guys, let’s get going and let Dana get some rest, huh?” Tina suggested brightly. “Besides, Kit’s probably getting tired of baby-sitting.”
With hugs and kisses on the cheek, they all straggled out the door, leaving a shivering Dana alone with her lunch. She took a tentative bite of the sandwich, and then immediately set it back on the plate. It tasted like sandpaper – no fault of Bette’s, just that Dana barely had a taste for much anymore when she was able to eat. Setting the food onto the floor beside her chair, Dana burrowed further beneath the blanket. She was feeling lonely and sorry for herself, and she hated to feel that way. What she really wanted right now was just to have Alice there, because she knew the blonde could always cheer her up, and just having her around made Dana feel better. I need someone to talk to. Anyone.
Finding the cordless phone beside the chair where Tina had thoughtfully left it, she hesitated before dialing the number. After it began to ring, she hung up. Closing her eyes and holding the phone to her chest tightly, she debated mentally. Taking a deep breath, she turned the phone back on and hit redial, waiting nervously for an answer.
“You know where Alice is,” Carmen accused as she buckled her seatbelt.
Shane took her eyes away from the road momentarily to glance at her girlfriend. “Yeah, I do.”
“And?” Carmen prodded.
Shane sighed. “She went over to Helena’s.”
Carmen’s eyes went wide. “I thought they weren’t speaking.”
“Alice is trying to make up with her. She feels bad for whatever it was she apparently did to make Helena mad,” Shane explained.
“So are theyyou know, going to be dating again?” Carmen asked hesitantly.
“I don’t know,” Shane replied. “I guess that’s their decision. Honestly, I hope not. I don’t think Helena really makes Alice happy. Not as happy as she deserves to be, anyway.”
“You mean as happy as Dana can make her,” Carmen filled in.
Shane merely sighed. Carmen leaned over, laying her head on Shane’s shoulder in quiet support. “If it’s meant to be, I’m sure they’ll find their way back to each other.”

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!
