a　message　from　Dan；　and？big　surprise？it　was　a　poem。　Vanessa　read　the　poem　eagerly；　grimacing

when　she　recognized　that　Dan　had　put　absolutely　no　effort　into　it　at　all。Hot　stuff？　What　was　that

all　about？　And　what　was　up　with？I　lost　my　virginity　again？　？　Who　was　he　fucking　kidding？

She　hit　reply　and　wrote　back：Ha　ha。　I　laughed。　I　cried。　What？s　your　deal　anyway？　We？re

supposed　to　be　making　a　film　together；　remember？

As　she　waited　for　Dan　to　respond；　she　logged　onto　her　Secret　Admirer　page。　To　her　surprise　there

were　four　messages：

I　can？t　stop　raving　about　you　to　all　my　boyfriends。　No　one　mixes　form　with　meaning　the　way

you　do；　milady。　？prettyboy

You　give　this　fucked…up　world　a　new　kind　of　beauty。　Keep　your　freak　on。　？d。

Happy　Valentine？s　Day　to　my　very　special　sister　on　a　special　day。　？Ruby　Tuesday

Can　you　make　it　to　Cannes？　Let？s　talk　over　coffee　in　Brooklyn　Thurs。　eve？　？the　film…maker　who

discovered　you

？

Vanessa　rolled　her　eyes　as　she　read　the　last　one。　She　appreciated　everything　Ken　Mogul　had　done

for　her；　but　he　hadn？t　exactly　discovered　her。　She？d　been　there　all　along。

She　clicked　on　her　inbox　again　but　there　was　no　response　from　Dan　so　she　logged　off。　？See　you

later；？　she　whispered　to　Jenny；　whose　big　brown　eyes　were　glued　to　her　puter。

？See　you；？　Jenny　replied　without　looking　up。　There　were　three　whole　messages　on　her　Secret

Admirer　page。

sorry　i　didn？t　get　you　any　candy　but　i　wasn？t　sure　which　kind　you　like。　let？s　get　some　after

school。　don？t　really　feel　like　going　home　right　away　anyway。　？sadgirl

btw；　when　do　you　want　to　finish　that　painting？？　？me　again

？

Those　two　were　very　definitely　from　Elise；　but　the　third　one　sounded　like　it　might　very　well　be

from　a　genuine；　real…lifeboy　。

Sorry　it　took　me　so　long；　but　I　didn？t　have　the　guts　to　write　to　you　before。　If　you　want　to　meet　me；

I　take　the　Seventy…ninth　Street　crosstown　bus　home　after　school。　I？m　not　sure　what　you　look　like；

but　if　you　see　a　really　tall　skinny　guy　with　blond　hair　looking　at　you　on　the　bus；　smile　because　it？s

probably　me。　Happy　Valentine？s　Day；　JHumphrey。　Can？t　wait　to　meet　you。　Love；　L

？

Jenny　reread　the　message　over　and　over。　A　tall　skinny　guy　with　blond　hair？　He　sounded　exactly

like　the　boy　she？d　seen　in　Bendel？s！　But　what　didL　stand　for？　Lester？　Lance？　Louis？　No；　those

names　sounded　too　geeky；　and　his　message　didn？t　sound　geeky　at　all；　just　sweet。　But　how　had　he

gotten　her　e…mail　address？　Oh；　who　cared？she　couldn？t　believe　it：he　wanted　to　meet　her！！

Jenny　immediately　deleted　Elise？s　messages　and　ran　to　the　printer　to　retrieve　the　one　from　L。　Of

course；　she　planned　to　ride　the　Seventy…ninth　Street　crosstown　bus　all　afternoon　and　all　night　if
