“You were blindsided. Come on! It was an interview, not a
session with Stella, what have your parents got to do with it?” Shane
scoffed.
“Stella?” Alice asked.
“Dana’s therapist,” Tina filled her in, assuming Alice knew Dana was in therapy.
Alice stared at Dana. When the tennis player finally returned her look she asked again, “Stella?”
“Stella Rudnick.” Dana answered her regretfully, examining her nails.
Alice thought for a moment. “Stella Rudnick? Stella Rudnick Dana,
she’s a couple’s therapist. I had her on my LA’s top 10 therapist’s
list a while back,” Alice informed her.
Dana ignored her for a moment, before finally acknowledging, ” I know that, Al. That’s where I got her name.”
“So what? You’re seeing a couple’s therapist? Alone?” Alice stared at her.
Dana glared back. “She does other things, Alice. She’s very good.” Dana defended herself.
Shane and Tina exchanged an awkward glance. Seeing this, Dana decided to make her exit before they did.
“I have to run,” she announced, standing up. “Thanks for the coffee,
Tina.” Dana was obviously uncomfortable and ready to make a quick exit.
“I’ll see you guys later, okay?”
“Good.” Alice mumbled watching the tennis player literally run off.
“That went well.” She observed, smiling weakly at Tina and Shane.
Shane pulled her into a hug and ruffled her hair. “Yeah, Al. Very smooth,” she teased, nodding her head.
Alice also excused herself shortly afterwards, needing to go home
and bang some pots. She was angry with herself for being so insensitive
to Dana about seeing a therapist. After her own recent adventures with
amphetamines she couldn’t believe she’d opened her mouth at all about
seeking help.
“And, Lord knows what she’s telling that woman about Me.” she thought grimly.
Alice was also annoyed because she had been hoping to see Dana this
afternoon and get a chance to talk to her. This had been the perfect
opportunity. She had been looking for a casual way to let her know that
Alex and she had decided to be platonic friends. She wasn’t comfortable
simply calling and telling her because she didn’t want Dana to think
the decision was related to her.
“Because of course she has NO bearings at all in your feelings, right Alice?” The reporter groaned again, frustrated.
Alice’s cell phone rang around 11 pm that evening. The jingle told
her it was Dana calling. The blonde leapt to catch it before it went to
voice mail.

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.
