“Already on it,” Al responded. “Now try to relax a little, will you?
“So, Beth Kenyon, huh?” Carmen sipped her Tecate slowly.
“Yeah,” Shane said. “Why didn’t you call?”
“So much for small talk, I see.” Shane waited her out. “Honestly?”
“No, lie to me.”
“I didn’t know if I would have enough courage to see you, but Jenny took matters in her own hands.” Carmen was trying very hard not to say any more.
What the hell is her problem?” Shane’s Yoda instincts kicked in. She felt her cell vibrating and turned it off inconspicuously. “Wait… you and Jenny are together. Again?”
“Not like you think.” The response was quick. Too quick. Carmen took a second to regroup. “We understand each other, you know that. It’s…” Carmen searched for the right word, “comfortable.”
Dana was moved to a private room on the obstetrics ward shortly before nine. Alice used the opportunity to take Dr. Wilson aside, bombarding her with questions. She knew none of the possibilities were good.
“Right now, we don’t know anything, except that Dana experienced unexpected and severe pain that was not associated with contractions,” the doctor said. “The episode seems to have passed, but until we know what caused it, Dana will need to be hospitalized.”
“But you have some suspicions, don’t you? Alice braced herself for the answer. They fought it before and they could fight it again. She just needed to know what they were up against.
“Listen to me, Alice,” Dr. Wilson said kindly, “I simply don’t know if tonight’s events are in any way related to Dana’s cancer.”
Lara tried to relax as she felt the plane become airborne. Helena squeezed her hand reassuringly as they gained altitude.
“I don’t know why I feel like this,” Lara said. “We knew it was coming.”
“While I think we can prepare ourselves for the loss of someone we love,” Helena began, “I don’t think we’re ever truly ready for it.” She saw Lara’s resolve melting, released her seatbelt and scrambled to gather her into her arms. “We’ll get through this, darling. I promise you we’ll get through it together.”
“I’m afraid I’m not strong enough,” Lara wept. “They destroyed me once and I think they can do it again.”

OOhhh new post exciting… or not, as a Danish obsessive you’re breaking my heart with these baby issues! I have faith that you’re gona bring our little family out unharmed but not before some torturing angst! I just know you’re a sucker for a happy ending lol… Anyway, I still love it! I feel bad for Lara, happy for Shane and Beth, confusion as always for Jenny but hey it’s all part of her charm – I was rewatching series 5 actually and I love her all over again, she’s annoying enough to be hilarious! Too much info? I think so… I’m done THANK YOU
Sorry for the delay in comment…thank you for writing as always…I really hope Dana and the baby are going to be okay…I wish I too could write my own life sometimes, but if we knew all the endings what would be the point of waking up every morning…Keep on writing, as you know this is my favorite fan fiction…
Ok OMG i searched Danish and fall upon this one…So i had alot to trail through but i eventually got here in the end…and sad to see its been a while since an update guessing that youre busy but i seriouslyu want to know if Dana and the baby are going to be okay.Are Helena and Lara heading for a break up??Too many thoughts on this one so update soonies
aaawww what u left me there??? sorry I left u a tall order in my previous comment. I’m okay altho the arthritis progresses into my hands. Really like your story. Can u plz make Dana not die? And another TiBette baby sounds wonderful. Look after Lara, she’s such a honey; as for the rest they seem okay for now. Look 4ward to next post.
Poor Dana! And Alice too. How heartwrenching that must be. I just hope the difficult decision leads to a healthy mother and baby. Poor Lara, too, but at least she has Helena with her. I’m not sure I quite understand what’s going on with Jenny and Carmen, but I like that Shane finally seems to have some happiness. This is excellent as usual!
I was having a pretty rough Monday morning, but, it certainly got better when I saw you posted. Even through the chapter had several sad parts, it was still excellent. Poor Lara and Helena. I hope they can find some way to make it through. Bette and Tina seem to be doing well. I am glad they decided to answer the phone. Shane and Beth seem to be surprisingly well matched. That is another couple I hope can make it. Shane seems to be able to be herself and finally maturing. Jenny and Carmen? Meh. I am glad that Dana made it safely to the hospital. Alice is doing a great job in supporting her partner. I can’t imagine the stress the two might be feeling as they wait for the results. I am very concerned about the “difficult decisions” that lie ahead. Thanks so much, SG!! Can’t wait for the next chapter.
i’ve read this a dozen times but i kept forgetting to comment….omg im scared this is such a happy time for them after everything..pls let baby and dana be okay! :S
