Work to Do- The Conclusion (FINALLY!)
love,
Dana
Alice’s apartment, 11pm
Sunday night
The buzzer startled her, interrupting her thoughts. Alice had been
trying to piece together a column for her Monday deadline and was
getting nowhere.
Knowing immediately who would be buzzing her at that hour she grinned
as she jumped to punch the door’s release. Hastily she checked her
appearance, applying a little make-up as she waited for Dana.
Meanwhile, Dana stood outside Alice’s door, rethinking the plan. “Too
soon. It’s too soon. I’m gonna freak her out,” she fretted. “I’m gonna
freak me out”, she added, nodding.
What had started as a romantic whim, borne of simple excitement to see Alice, had withered at the reality of being there.
Dana had been relieved earlier when Alice hadn’t felt obligated to make
their ‘next plan’. As much as she wanted to be with the blonde again,
she couldn’t help but fear Alice’s clingy behavior returning.
Taking their time, and giving each other space seemed vital.
“Hey.” Alice said softly, interrupting Dana’s conversation.
“Oh… Hi sorry I didn’t call,” Dana apologized.
“I’m glad you’re here.” Alice assured her, pulling the brunette into her apartment.
The sideboard in Alice’s hall held Dana’s Sunflowers. Alice gestured to them,
“Their beautiful.” Blushing she added that she also loved her note.
They made their way into the living room and sat opposite each other on
the couch. “I feel obligated to make a ‘nap’ joke,” Alice tried.
Pausing, she added, “I got nothing.”
Dana laughed, “I’m sure you’ll come up with one.”
A moment or two passed, not awkward but not comfortable either. Dana scooted closer to Alice and took her hand.
“Al I think we’re both afraid of scaring the other off, of coming on
too strong, too quickly. Let’s just try to relax and get into the habit
of talking to each other about what we’re thinking and what worries us.
How does that sound?”
“Like Stella,” Alice teased, relieved. “Sounds like a good plan,” she
added flipping around. She laid her head in Dana’s lap and looked up
into her eyes.
“When you sent me the flowers, my reaction was to want to run over to your place immediately and smother you in kisses.”
“Good instincts,” Dana smiled.
“I couldn’t,” Alice confessed. “I’ve got all these rules in my head about how not to fuck this up again I’m scared Dana.”

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!
