...the three of them, Mikey and Stace sitting one side, Staces's hand never straying from Mikey's knee, and Violet sitting opposite.   They talked about work, and school, and music, and TV shows.  Violet had stopped the flirting.  She was sensible enough to want to keep Stace on her side.  But when they all said goodnight,  as Violet watched them walk away,  Mikey turned his head and, unseen by Stace, gave her a parting smile.

Violet smiled, then turned and walked away, feeling more excited than she had in years.

A couple of nights later, they met up again.  Violet announced that she had been given a week to get out of her rented room, as her landlord wanted it for his own son, who had dropped out of college.

Stace held her breath, hoping that Michael would not say what she knew he was going to.  But of course, he did.

''We have a spare room.  Want come stay with us till you find something else?''
