My fingers fly on the screen as I do a search.
I read my fave gossip site first.
Just Spotted never disappoints, but I’m stunned at the way they described me. Then, it hits me.
Shit. I’m on Just Spotted’s radar.
Thank God the association between me and my family is a hard one to make. Still, I pray to God they don’t dig deeper.
I do a few more searches.
I burst out laughing at the first result.
‘WAS THAT A SMILE OR WAS KAZ LINDSTRÖM PASSING GAS ON ACTIVE KIDS’ RED CARPET?’
“What’s so funny?”
I angle my phone.
He makes a face.
I giggle.
I scroll down some more.

Oh my God, the press called me stunning?
I do a little happy dance.
“What?” Kaz frowns.
I show him the headline.
His frown dissipates. “For once, the press got it right. You were stunning last night.”
Be still my beating heart. This man.
I return my attention to my phone.

The man totally spoiled me.

I type my ex’s name in the search bar.
‘CHETT FROSTBURG ESCORTED OFF THE PREMISES AFTER NHL PLAYER DISPLAYS AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR AT CHARITY GALA’

I scroll down a little more, and cringe.

Okay, that last one makes me come across like a puck bunny.
