She longed for the youth that had been taken from her by playing tennis
and hiding scared in the closet. In her mind it was all very logical.
Yes, she wanted to be with Alice for the long run, the real deal as
Carmen liked to call it, but how could she really know that for sure
with as little romantic experience as she had? And it didn’t help
matters that Dana had never exactly been someone who was confident
about her emotions.
All of her life Dana had been led along by others. Their wants, their
dreams, their ideas for her and it was easy… doing what they wanted
but Dana didn’t want that with Alice. She had to know it was what she
really wanted and not that she was simply going along with the desires
of her best and oldest friend.
And she broke Alice’s heart in doing so.
Thinking of that time always made Dana want to burst into tears. How
Alice had changed into someone that she didn’t recognize and it all was
because of her. What she had done, her own fears and insecurities had
helped bring about what seemed to be the near destruction of the woman
she loved more than anyone else in her life.
Then Helena Peabody arrived in their lives.
To be more accurate, she arrived in Alice’s life but to be even more
accurate, she had technically already been there thanks to her
involvement with Bette and Tina. Although Dana didn’t really think that
counted, no matter how much she loved her friends it wasn’t quite the
same thing. Helena dating Tina was very different than Helena dating
Alice.
At least, in Dana’s world it was different. She loathed recalling that
time almost as much as the period in which Alice had fallen apart at
her hands. Hated it because she had been relieved, so very relieved
that Alice wasn’t fixating on her anymore. That she was getting a break
from the constant phone calls, the near car chases, and generally
antagonistic behavior.
It stopped, all of it. The calls, the car chases, the harassing
treatment, it stopped completely and suddenly it was as if Alice no
longer existed. She dropped completely off the map in the LA scene and
at first, Dana didn’t think anything of it.
But then days turned into weeks which then turned into months. Until
one day Dana found herself getting bored during a trip to the Farmers
Market with Lara and wandered away from the fresh farm produce section
for a bit of exploring. Only to find herself unable to move as her eyes
locked on a happily smiling Alice who, in that moment, looked exactly
as Dana had once known her. Charming and funny and sweet and so
incredibly loving at the same time.

wow…that was the craziest thing i have ever read…DAMN
Meant to add when I commented earlier that I like your definition of ‘sane’ in the author’s note: not planning a road trip to Canada = sane. I’m sane (well, for now at least)!
oh my! you are amazing – i’m still in denial about the spoilers – but if ic could get you on the writing team, i might be able to handle it! wow!
It’s Helena’s turn for happiness and understanding. Besides, she’s sooooo sexy
This is excellent Dreiser! I salute you!
I’ve never really liked Helena, but you gave her an actual personality and also made me completely fall for her. The choice Alice has to make seems to be impossible at this time.
Loved it, loved it, loved it.
DUDE. You totally know how much I love this story, because I told you as much, like, 50 million times while I tried to find out this story’s ETA.
Damn. Angst and sex, you know that’s my favourite fan fic combo. I think you nailed it, really. The love Alice and Dana have for one another, how similar Helena and Alice really are and how the bond would emerge from that. It’s all so fucking good.
If I weren’t already on board with Helacious, this would totally sway me over.
That brings a new meaning to angst! I love your rules of attraction fic but never post so thought id do so here. Loving the drama in that at the moment too but it has got me guiltily craving the fluff! I think after the fight in that they deserve some make-up worthy of chapter sixs extravaganza? Just a thought!
OK so you’ve left us with a cliffhanger in Laws this week, but all is forgiven. This was amazing. You made me love Helacious, or at least really feel for Helena. Funny, sad and hot.
this is great and I love it just like your another story is there anymore to this one though as to when and where alice makes her decision about the two women in her life if there is more please post soon
Tumbling down in deed…Wow, great one shot story. I admit that the way you wrote Helena made me almost want Alice to chose Helena. With that said, the danish shipper in me just wouldn’t allow that thought to linger for to long–though if all goes to hell in season 3 and the writers were able to write helena as human and as affectionate as you have, then i could be splitting some time between two ships…and because i am a perv loved the sex scene. helena, alice, dana, oh my…good stuff. And one last comment: FINALLY Alice is the one being fought over. Loved it.
someone finally wrote a threesome that was not trite and boring! good for you dreiser. Wow. But does my heart ache for Alice, Dana, and Helena. I wish one of them would declare, whomever you pick Alice, I still love you and you are guarenteed my friendship for life. At least if I were with her thats what I would say… because even if she didn’t have sex with me ever again it would be enough to be in her presense as her friend her colleague and her confidant. Colla cavod (congratulations in hebrew), Dreiser you make LOVEALICE think and write very lengthy comments with no particular point. Great story.
Peace and Love,
LOVEALICE
everything you write always turns out sooooooooo entertaining, gr8 story BUT will u still continue with a part 19 in L.O.A?? it’s killing me 2 see whats going 2 happen…??
Damn girl you are so good that almost I want helacious more than danish; I said “almost” :P. If IC can give us this Helena it’s gonna be very interesting her interaction with Alice :D
I can only come up with three words. Pure Romantic Torture.
Wicked! Give yourself an affectionate slap on the ass for this.
I absolutely love this fic. I have been searching for some good fic with the Dana/Alice/Helena triangle, and I found some amazing work here! It’s very easy to relate to all members of the trio, both Dana and Helena for being so devoted to Alice, and Alice for loving them in return but not knowing how to choose one over the other. Keep up the outstanding work and please post more fanfic asap!
