After Dan had kicked her out of the Humphreys’ last year; Vanessa had felt lost and heartbroken。

 Not to mention very; very guilty。

 Everything with Hollis had happened so quickly; she didn’t really have time to think about it; they had kissed once; and then they had kissed again; and then suddenly there was Dan; watching it all happen。

 After he told Vanessa that he never wanted to see her again; a tiny part of her had died。

 But there was nothing she could do to change what had happened。

 She had to look forward; not back。

 With nowhere else to turn; she’d called Hollis。

 They’d slowly gotten to know each other over long nights of falafel; cheap red wine; and Vanessa with no place to crash except Hollis’s bed。

For the last year; she’d spent most nights at Hollis’s Alphabet City apartment。

 But technically she resided in a curtained…off corner of the living room of a Bushwick apartment with Mackenzie and Rhiannon; two girls from NYU。

 It was a far cry from what she now called home: an eighteen…hundred…square…foot glass and exposed…brick apartment with its own elevator; black…stained wood floors; and a winding staircase that connected a sleeping loft to the sprawling main living area。

 It was incredible。

 She and Hollis had been planning to move in together after her lease was up on December 31; but she hadn’t expected an apartment so…

“It’s so big here;”

 Vanessa said; her voice echoing off the still…bare walls。

 Hollis had hired a decorator to furnish the apartment with the basics; but neither of them had put up any artwork yet。

 She couldn’t wait to find cool prints and stills together to put on the walls; and really make it their own。

 For now; she just wanted to run around the loft in her socks。

 Because she could。

That’s one way to dial down the maturity level。

It was all like a fairy tale; with Hollis as her indie prince。

 He hadn’t even told her how expensive it was; assuring Vanessa that her tiny contribution to the rent from her student job working in the digital film archives at school would more than cover her share。

At first; Vanessa had protested。

 It felt so terribly cliché。

 She was practically a kept woman!

 Although it wasn’t her fault Hollis’s film Between the B and the A; a ing…of…age story about a twenty…one…year…old’s spiritual journey; had been the darling at Sundance and a surprise indie hit the summer before。

 It was pretty obvious he wasn’t exactly living off a TA salary anymore。

 And Hollis had countered Vanessa’s protests by explaining that his success was her success and vice versa。

 They were a team。

 Even though it was sort of corny; she couldn’t help but swoon a little。

She wandered over to the large arching windows; where she could just make out the East River rushing by in the distance。

 She could hear Williamsburg denizens on the sidewalk below; just getting started on their New Year’s Eve festivities。

 Vanessa was happy she and Hollis weren’t going out。

There are plenty of ways to have fun staying in。
