Lady luck was on their side yet again.  Nolan knew his love was his one lucky charm in life. With her, anything was possible for him. He felt blessed to know she had chosen him too. 

Nolan had painted a wall in their new home with black chalkboard paint. He was trying to paint a portrait of her before she discovered what he had been doing. A row of failed attempts were to the right of him in various stages of erasure. It was alright for her to see those, he knew. He was happy to see the empty apartment that was now his and hers. All due to a happy accident. Ellie had told him that the Braye family lawyer would come to visit him and he had been surprised that he was being given an apartment. The apartment had belonged to his half-sister which had soured him immediately, but Wu had urged him to not let the past dampen their present happiness.
