It's been five months since, Alice and Dana met for the first time. The interview didn't go as planned for the Blonde. Her questions got to personal and the tennis player got uncomfortable and called it a day. Alice of course bitched about it to her friends and called Dana uptight. Alice started dating a young 22 year old. Her name was Louise and she was a film maker at UCLA. She had Straight black hair and wore thick black glasses. Alice was in awe with this girl. Her friends on the other hand, weren't too keen on the film maker. The fact that she tries to stir up trouble and tries to convince Alice her friends aren't good for her. They dated for two months until Alice realized what she was really like when Shane told her that Louise tried to sleep with Shane one night at the Planet. Alice broke it off, but found herself completely heartbroken.
One late night, Alice notices she has ran out of ice cream and puts on her baggy sweater and heads to the store. In a total need for an ice cream fix, she doesn't notice that Dana Fairbanks is in front of her. The Tennis Player she offended months ago. As Dana turns round, she glances at the blonde. Not sure where she knows her from.
"Alice, right?" Dana asks.
"Um, yeah. Who wants to know!" Alice snaps.
"It's Dana, Dana Fairbanks. You work for LA Magazine?"
"Oh yeah! Hey!" Alice couldn't but feel a little less confident than she normally is. Looking at how perfect and beautiful this women is and how messed up she looks right now.
"I don't normally dress like this. Just having one of those days" She laughs nervously.
"Bad break up?"
"You could say that" Alice grins.
Dana picks up her shopping and is about to leave..
"Dana?" Alice shouts.
The tennis player turns round. "Yeah?"
"A few friends and I are meeting for breakfast tomorrow at the planet. You want to join us?"
Dana just nods and smiles before she leaves the store.
The next morning, Alice decides to dress to impress. As she thought she looked like shit last night, she needs to look her best this morning.
Once Dana arrived at the planet, the group quickly grew to how sweet and funny this girl was. They automatically loved her. Dana went on about how she has bad luck with women, the women she's interested in are always straight. Alice made it in her power to fix Dana up with the perfect female. The tennis player wasn't sure about the fix up. Last blind date she was on, was with a 40 year old broker, called Mitch. A blind date that her parents set up. But she trusted her new friend. Kind of..
Dana Fairbanks storms into her friends apartment, ready to scream!
"Really Alice?" She shouts.
"What?" the blonde asks, confused.
"You set me up with a butch lesbian!" she whispers. As if someone else was listening.
"You don't like butch women?"
"It's not that I don't like them, I have friends who are butch. But that's just not my type!"
"you have a type?"
Dana wasn't amused with Alice's attempt of humour. "There's actually someone I have my eye on"
"But you don't know if she's gay or not?"
"I'm I that predictable?"
"Yes, you are!" Alice smiles.
Alice sits down next to the light brunette and asks her to continue on this female she is interested in. Dana tells her, that the red head she likes is called Lara and she's a chef at the country club where she trains. They have made the odd comment to one another and there's been a few glances from both ends. But she's just not sure if Lara is interested or even gay!
Alice gets the girls together and go to the country club to check this girl out. They try loads of test to prove this red head is a lesbian, but nothing works. The last straw is to get Shane to hit on her. No gay women turns down Shane. After that failed. The girls gave up. Lara was clearly straight. Which left Dana disappointed.
The next few days, Dana tries to avoid Lara as much as possible. She knows that the chef isn't into girls and seeing her will just make the tennis player want her even more. In the locker room after practise. Dana is stunned to see Lara there, the tall red head walks towards her and kisses her! Dana is thrown back by this!
"If you wanted to know, you should of just asked!" the chef smirks.
Leaving the Fairbanks girl in the locker room herself. With a huge smile on her face.
