Work to Do- The Conclusion (FINALLY!)
Still hung over, she ran her hands through her hair, wondering how she was supposed to get thru the rest of her day.
Alice wasn’t a block away before she was on the phone.
“Shane? It’s me,” she stated.
“Let’s see, 12 hours after I expected this call I’m guessing you called Dana first?” Shane teased her.
Alice paused.
“I caught your show,” the hairdresser explained.
Alice laughed “Oh my gawd, Shane. You heard that?!”
“I tried to call in.” Shane laughed.
”I wish I’d known! You would have been a huge help,” Alice giggled.
They both laughed, recounting Dana’s call and Alice’s efforts
afterwards to pretend Dana hadn’t just called the radio station shit
faced.
Shane didn’t ask what happened after Alice went off the air. She didn’t have too.
“So ” Alice began. “You have to go out with me tonight and NOT let me call Dana,” she told her.
Shane was disappointed.
“Al, I thought you were going to talk to Dana?” she asked tentatively.
“I did. We’talked!’ Alice assured her.
“We talked a lot,” she bragged.
“I just don’t want to make the same mistakes we made before,” she admitted softly.
“Last time we did this dance, we did that whole U-haul thing,” Alice
cringed. “We went from best friends to living together in a kiss.”
“I’m not sure I’m a ‘live together’ gal.” Alice admitted. “Before with
Dane, I jumped into it like it would be gone if I didn’t immerse
myself.”
Shane just let her talk, smiling.
“I do want to be with Dana. I want to make a commitment,’ she
acknowledged. “We just have to leave space for ‘Alice’ and ‘Dana’,” she
explained, putting her thoughts into words.
“You know what? I feel better,” Alice brightened. “I feel great,” she
amended. “I think I’m going to pass on tonight actually, I’m exhausted.”
Shane said her good byes, laughing, “Glad we had this little talk, Al.”
Saturday evening
Alice’s apartment
Alice answered the knock on her door wondering briefly if it was
Dana. Instead she found a deliveryman blocked by a riot of sunflowers.
He handed her a note.
“Another note,” Alice smiled, thanking him and taking the flowers.
“Alice-
I know we have a long road ahead of us (at least I hope we do). I just want you to know- I’m looking forward to the trip…

It is with great sadness that I’m writing this comment for the last time. *Sniff* This fic is on my top three favorite fics on this site, so thank you for giving meaning and reason to this ship. Anyway we can convince IC to flim your version of the story instead?
I’m saddened too that this is the end of your fic. This is one of my favorite Danish fics and I’ll miss eagerly awaiting Sunday nights for updates. It’s a great story Cape and thanks for sharing it with us. We’ll hope for the best in S3. I’ll go to sleep tonight with “Has Dana been a naughty girl….” echoing through my head (in Leisha’s voice of course!).
Cape – Absolutely wonderful story, from beginning to end. I can only hope to feel this good in 45 minutes, but alas, i don’t think so. I’ve told you this before, you nailed the characters wonderfully, their mannerisms, insecurities, and just overall characteristics. It was well written, meaningful, funny, sad and bittersweet. Sorry to see it go and hope to see something new from you soon! Thanks for taking the time to write and share it with us!
