    Work to Do Chapter 8

    Alice visibly relaxed a bit. Thinking, she bowed her head forward and rubbed at the back of her neck.

    “*****,” she laughed, “What comes to mind is so ‘therapy 101′.”

    Stella smiled at her. “Okay,” she prompted.

    “Dana comes from a stable, loving home so of course she believes love
    and stability are possible. Dana believes in ‘happily ever after.’

    “I come from Lenore. I’m waiting for the rug to be pulled out from
    under me. See? Therapy 101.” She batted her eyelashes and refolded her
    arms over her chest.

    “So you don’t believe relationships can last?”

    “Oh *****,” Alice sighed.

    “I want to,” she said quietly. “I believe in Dana. I just don’t want to
    get slammed again not by her.” Alice swallowed and studied the prints
    behind Stella.

    “So I guess you’re going to want to talk about Lenore some more” Alice smiled.

    “It could be helpful,” Stella smiled back.

    Sensing Alice could use a change of direction she asked,

    “Why do you think you initiated the change in Dana and your
    relationship from a friendship to romance, given your thoughts on
    ‘happily ever after’? It was you who went to Dana, right?” the
    therapist clarified.

    “Oh yeah,” Alice confirmed, shaking her head. “That was me. I
    have asked myself that question more than a few times. Sometimes I wish
    to God I hadn’t, but I also am so amazingly glad I did.

    “It’s hard to understand myself, let alone convey. Looking back on it
    though, I have to tell you, I think it was always a romance.”

    Alice remembered back to the night of the “Provocations” opening at the
    CAC. She had dreaded going after Dana’s announcement earlier that she
    and Tonya were engaged.

    The entire evening Alice had watched as Tonya led Dana around like a
    prized possession. It had eaten at Alice unreasonably, making her
    irritable and snippy.

    Driving home that night Alice had been unable to get Dana’s expression
    out of her mind. She’d looked hurt at first by Alice’s caustic remarks,
    later she’d just looked angry. Alice’s behavior toward her of late was
    not unnoticed. Her eyes had flashed a warning that Alice was pushing it.

    Alice struggled against the obvious explanation for her behavior. She
    did not want to go there. What she and Dana had was wonderfully
    uncomplicated. Dana’s romance with Lara, though brief had awakened
    Alice to the threat that outside relationships could pose to that safe
    simplicity.

    1. I loved it when Alice thought back to her motivations for the 4am kiss. Your reasoning was excellent. I love how fanfic can be used to fill in the blanks that the show leaves.

    2. Good job with Alice’s character! I thought you’ve got it spot on! I loved how you threw in pre-4am scene in there. But you lost me at post-4am scene. You know..because my mind wanders. It’s a problem, I’m working on it. But your witty writing brought me back into it. LMAO at the “I come from Lenore” line, nothing can top that line unless…Go on I dare ya to! My lame attempt to make you post soon…is it working? Please say yes.

    3. In all your chapters there’s always at least one line that totally cracks me up. This week it was “I come from . . Lenore”! Loved it all. And you’ve made me late for work.

    4. “wild sex scenes ensue” your words not mine. Great chapter again! So how long are you going to make us wait for the above scenes? Don’t be such a tease. LOL

    5. I utterly adore that scene between Alice and Dr. Rudnick. It was so true to Alice’s character, the awkwardness, the little jokes and if I ever need a therapist, Dr. Rudnick would be my first choice. That’s what I love about the way you write, witty, funny and emotional at the same time. Hard to accomplish but you do it so well.
