The Planet was quiet. It was early in the afternoon and the after work
crowd was just trickling in. Dana and Tina, the first of their crew to
arrive, had taken a table outside on the patio.
Wearing identical expressions, their heads bowed together in
concentration as they read from a magazine. “I think it’s fine Dana, I
do,” Tina assured her finally.
They were reading a piece in ‘The Advocate’ about ‘high profile’
***** and Politics. It included Dana in the athlete’s section and
inferred she was vague when it came to ***** issues.
“Do you think really so, Tina? Because I think it makes me sound
completely uninformed about anything beyond tennis!” Dana whined. “She
only half quoted me. I was trying to say I don’t understand why anyone
should listen to an athlete’s views on politics.”
“Dana, I think you spelled that out very clearly here. You
don’t sound vague to me. You just sound like you think it’s unimportant
what you’re opinion is- that each person is responsible for forming
their own opinions and voting them. I agree by the way.”
“Me too,” Shane piped in, joining them late but guessing the
topic. “Dane, I totally got where you were coming from. I thought it
was very cool. I can’t imagine voting for a candidate because some
actor who plays a character I like is for them. That’s whack.” Shane
shrugged.
“What’s whack?” asked Alice sliding into the chair opposite
Dana and next to Shane. She was twisting a straw around in her mouth as
she looked from Shane to Tina and finally to Dana. She let the straw
fall from her mouth looking at Dana, “What’s whack?” she asked again.
“The whole idea of people choosing candidates to support based
on Dana, or some other celebrities opinion, simply because she’s a high
profile *****.” Tina summarized.
Dana nodded shyly at Alice. They hadn’t seen each other since Dana interrupted Alice’s date three nights ago.
“Oh! The Advocate article, I saw that!” Alice huffed. “Dana, I
thought you came across great in that piece. Not quite sure what
happened at the end, it was almost like she had an agenda and even
though you weren’t what she expected, she had to follow it?”
“It seemed like it was going fine,” Dana agreed. “Then out of the
blue at the end, she brought up my parents being Republican and talking
about my being closeted for so long like I was scarred or something.”

I was having fun with my multiple personalities lol. Cappy, I would gladly take your season 3 over the actual show anytime. That final scene in the kitchen was a classic display of Danish’s ‘Approach – Avoidance’ feel to their relationship and you’ve written it in a way that made me sigh, swoon and curse (yes in that order) Soon you hear!
You consistently drive me crazy, and leave me wanting more. I’ll have to re-read the story from the beginning again as I patiently await your next installment…
WAIT, ALICE! Why is she going back into the bedroom!? Is Dana going with her!? Cape, you tease! I need therapy, and the only cure for my personality disorder is the next chapter….and that Betty fic you were considering to write about. Post soon! *twitches* Post soon!
a.. sorry if my “report” bothered you and layla.. I was just joking around.. I really love your story. The tension and the emotion show natually. Unlike some fanfic authors who like to circle around the same issue over and over again, yours (and layla’s) always hit the point with simple words. But.. detective starlai has to report a bug.. “They hadn’t seen each other since Dana interrupted Alice’s date three nights ago.” it’s not true, because
they ended up cuddle whole night and saw each other at the Planet the next day and questioned by Shane! I know.. I know.. I read too many times :p
starlai! i couldn’t be more flattered. : )
your report amused the heck out of both of us…– as for the night they cuddled– that was after the FIRST date she interrupted– the one where she hid in the kitchen? alice went over to her house after both she and Alex took off. The 2nd date was when alex was already there- and dana took off- alice and alex talked and decided to be friends. hope that clears it up? and thanks for paying so much attention and your really kind words.
cape, you are totally righ! of course, you are.. :p I guess I was stuck in Dana’s bedroom.. you’d bette get Dana into Alice’s room soon…
I hope season 3 give us some of this. Thanks it’s good.
this is great they are going together maybe this will help them with all of there feelings for each other I can’t wait for your next post so please post soon so I can se what will happen with them but i do think that there will be some good and some bad great
“You’re in couples therapy with me, aren’t you?” is such a great line! Funny and sweet. Great chapter.
Can’t wait to see what happens next.
