Shane looked at the ceiling and wondered where she was, LA or San Francisco, or who knows where, but decided it wasn't all that important. She felt tired, and closed her eyes.

Carmen walked down the corridor past the nurse's station, engrossed in an article in the new issue of Rolling Stone that she'd just bought in the hospital gift shop. In her other hand she carried a fountain soda she had with her lunch, which she'd just eaten in the hospital cafeteria. She'd spent most of the morning at the hospital, talking to Shane and reading to her from a novel she thought Shane might have liked, Love in the Time of Cholera. She sipped from the straw in the top of the of the disposable soda cup as she walked. It was two minutes past 1 p.m.
Carmen entered Shane's room and glanced at Shane momentarily, and at the monitor, and didn't recognize any kind of change. She sat down in the chair next to the bed and was deciding which article in Rolling Stone to start reading aloud to Shane, when Shane said, "How long does it take you to eat lunch? You've been gone nearly an hour."
"JESUS CHRIST, SHANE!" Carmen yelled. Shane had so startled her that she'd dropped her soda cup in her lap, scattering diet Coke and crushed ice all over herself, some of it splattering Shane, too. Carmen lurched to her feet and ignored the soda entirely, crying and blubbering, and threw herself on top of Shane, grasping Shane's face gently in her hands and kissing her face everywhere, kissing Shane's mouth, crying and kissing and laughing, kissing Shane just as Shane wanted to be kissed, and two nurses came in from the nurse's station to see what all the commotion was about.
THE END
But stay tuned, there's three "addendums" coming.

Anonymousalmost 4 years agoGreat story, making Carmen super women is ok. You did a great job tying in the L word characters. The murder mystery solves the problem with the final season Your resolution is far better than a one sentence noted in the sequel that Jenny committed suicide. Addressing Shane's weaknesses, in my mind became the guts of the "murder mystery" . You clearly have a sense of humor bringing up the Dani Riss character as Lauren's crush, after googling the actress portraying her.
Have no idea if you plan to follow up after Carmen goes on her six month cruise. This is tricky. You have provided that the romance is done. And noted in the addendums more story may follow.
Either way I'm good.
