“Did she sound funny? Like maybe she had something to tell you and couldn’t because of confidentiality reasons?” Alice asked seriously, surprised when Dana started laughing.
“Down, Intrepid Reporter. No, she sounded like a receptionist asking me to come in for an appointment. That’s all. Nothing else,” she said into Alice’s hair, still laughing a little.
“Are you sure? I mean, sometimes you’re not good at picking up on people’s tones of voice, so maybe she sounded different than she normally would and you just didn’t hear it? Do you think?” Alice asked, pulling back a little to look into Dana’s eyes in concern.
“Sweetie, really, calm down. She sounded like a perfectly normal person doing a perfectly normal task for a receptionist, in a perfectly normal tone. Besides, we’re heading over there after lunch anyway, so what’s the point in getting all worked up over the tone of her voice? We’ll find out pretty soon anyway, baby,” Dana murmured. Alice just nodded and hugged her again.
They met Shane at the Planet a little while later. While she was as mellow and supportive as always, there was obviously something going on. Alice picked up on it immediately and asked what was wrong, but Shane just shook her head. Alice finally left it alone, but Dana was curious and when Alice took a phone call as they were waiting for their food, she motioned Shane outside.
“So what’s really going on, Shane?” she asked quietly, taking a seat at one of the picnic tables outside.
“It’s really nothing big, okay? Some stuff’s just been happening, that’s all. You need to focus on you right now, Dana. Not my shit.”
“You’re my friend, I want to know what’s going on!” Dana protested, grabbing Shane’s shoulders and forcing eye contact. “Tell me? Please? Come on, I need something to distract me. Alice is making me nuts by stressing out about it so much.”
“Well, you know how I was gonna get that apartment with Paige and Jared? I fucked it up. But in hindsight it was a pretty messed up situation to begin with,” Shane finally relented.
“You were in pain from losing your brother, Shane. So you overcompensated. Big deal, it doesn’t mean you’re a bad person.” Dana stopped. “Hey, I’m sorry. You don’t need me giving you some kinda psychological analysis. Come here and hug me.” Shane complied without question.

YEY!! Dane is cancer free!!! lol whee~ whee~ I’m sorry, I ate too much sugar. Anyway, I agree with ACH21, I can totally see Alice fallin’ asleep after sex lol funny. I’m so relieved that Dana doesn’t have cancer again. I knew that you wouldn’t be so cruel with us readers but as I read Dana and Alice’s feelings, I couldn’t help but feel a bit worried. Nway, great job! PPS
It really is an emotional rollercoaster for the two of them! I hopethe next sirgery will be the last one for Dana for a while. Loved the part were Alice was going on and on about the tone of voice. I could totally see the two of them ‘bickering’.
First of all, ditto all my previous comments on the chapter. Excellent job! Now… FWIW: I knew it wasn’t bad news (that the cancer hadn’t returned). That didn’t stop me from wanting to know what the surgery was he was referring to. I’m noisy that way. Plus, your writing is excellent and you have me even more invested in these characters than I already was. Thank you for not keeping us in suspense too long. I’m glad Dana made a decision on reconstruction. I think making that choice — no matter which way she decided — is a step towards moving on with the rest of her life. And this cracked me up for some reason: “And to be honest, she usually falls asleep after sex anyway. I’ll have at least a few hours.” — Hee! Go put your woman to sleep, Dane! Thanks, MT!!
Yeah. I could tell it wasn’t bad i was just wondering what it was. The story is amazing. Like i said before it made the ride alot easier on me the other day to have a good read. Thanks alot MT keep up the amazingness
