looking　at　him。

？So。？　Dan　examined　his　cuticles　as　she　continued　to　put　away　her　camera　equipment。　？Where

were　you；　anyway？？　He　tried　to　project　an　aura　of　calmness；　grabbing　a　copy　of

Dostoyevsky？sCrime　and　Punishment　from　the　nightstand　and　flipping　aimlessly　through　its

thick　pages。

Like　that？s　the　only　thing　he？s　been　reading。

Vanessa　finally　turned　to　face　him。　？I　was　filming　Ruby？s　last　gig　as　a　single　woman；？　she

explained；　stripping　off　a　pair　of　expensive…looking　wide…legged　black　sailor　pants？likely

something　Blair　had　left　behind　during　her　brief　tenure　as　Vanessa？s　roommate。　She　was　wearing

an　old　pair　of　Dan？s　green…and…white…striped　boxers　underneath。　Then　she　pulled　off　her　plain

black　T…shirt　so　that　she　was　clad　in　only　the　boxers　and　a　white　Hanes　tank　top。　Dan　had　always

loved　Vanessa？s　fashion　sense？or　lack　of　it？and　he　couldn？t　help　noticing　how　sexy　she　looked。　It

was　nice　to　see　her　wearing　something　of　his。　？Everyone　was　wasted。　At　the　end　of　the　set；

Ruby？s　drummer　puked　onstage。？　？Gross。？　Dan　pulled　off　his　army　green　Kafka　T…shirt　and

scooted　under　the　covers。

？Totally；？　she　agreed；　climbing　under　the　sheets　beside　him　and　switching　off　the　bedside　light。

Hopefully　the　darkness　would　hide　her　embarrassment　and　confusion。　They　lay　in　unfortable

silence；　and　Vanessa　couldn？t　help　but　give　in　to　her　feeling　of　total　dejection。　After　her

conversation　with　Piotr；　she？d　felt　so　。　。　。　hopeful。　She？d　thought　she　might　be　able　to　work　things

out　with　Dan；　but　if　he　was　spending　his　free　time　home　alone　reciting　romantic　gay　poetry　to

himself；　there　really　wasn？t　any　question　about　his　sexual　status　now。　She　sighed　heavily；　looking

up　at　the　dark　ceiling。

Dan　tried　hard　to　think　of　something　to　say。　He？d　never　had　trouble　talking　to　Vanessa

before？she　was　his　best　friend。　In　fact；　she　was　one　of　the　only　people　he　reallycould　talk　to。　In

less　than　a　week　he？d　be　driving　out　to　Evergreen　College　in　Washington　State　to　start　a　new

life？in　a　1977　Buick　Skylark；　no　less？and　he　had　to　figure　all　this　out　before　he　got　into　that　car

and　drove　away。　Why　couldn？t　he　talk　to　her　now；　when　he　needed　her　the　most？

Maybe　because　she　just　walked　in　on　him　reading　in　iambic　pen…maneater。

？So　。　。　。？　he　whispered　into　the　dark。　？Are　you　doing　okay？　I　mean；　with　Ruby？s　wedding　and

everything？？　Vanessa　snorted。　Dan　could　picture　the　face　she　was　almost　certainly　making？her

eyes　rolled　to　the　ceiling；　a　wry　twist　turning　up　the　corners　of　her　lips。

？Yeah；？　she　breathed。　？I　just　have　to　film　the　clusterfuck。？　He　heard　her　exhale　heavily　into　the

warm；　humid　air　before　she　spoke　again。　？You？rethe　one　I　feel　sorry　for？I　mean；　you　have　to　e

up　with　some　meaningful；　epic　fuckinglove　poem　about　those　two　morons。？　？Thanks；？　Dan

mumbled　sarcastically。　？You？ve　filled　me　with　confide
