“Of course.”

“A New HopeorThe Rise of Skywalker?”

“Is that even a question? There was a while when Harrison Ford made me question my sexuality,” I inform her seriously.

“I think he made a lot of guys question their sexuality and reaffirmed it for a lot of confused girls too,” she teases, and I can’t help but notice that she’s a couple inches closer than she was before. “The last guy I dated refused to watch the old movies. Said he wouldn’t sit through anything that wasn’t 4K quality.”

“He’s clearly one of the Imperial’s forces.”

“He gave off Stormtrooper vibes for sure.”

“You were smart to dump him.”

Mia laughs. “He dumped me.”

“The man was obviously stupid.”

“I like to think so. But in his defense, he was probably right. I couldn’t give him the attention he deserved.”

“‘The attention he deserved?’” I repeat. “What was he? A newborn baby.”

“I mean, he had that energy too.”

“A squalling Stormtrooper—your taste is questionable.”

“You’re the one who’s in bed with me.”

I smirk. “Let’s call it luck.”

“It’s a miracle that I can fit with your ego in it too.”

“My ego is big for a reason.”

“You live up to the fame?”

“The fame… Ah, you Googled me again, hmm?”

“I saw that you keepPage Sixplenty busy.”

“It’s my duty.” Though she snorts, I’m quick to answer, “Not my fault I haven’t found the one yet.”

“The one?”

“Oh, yeah, I’m looking.”And I might have found her.

“For the one?”

“Yes. The one.”

“Who’s the one?”

“If I knew that,” I say with a laugh. “I wouldn’t be looking, would I?”

“Wait a minute. You mean like ‘the one’ the one?”

“Yes.”

“I’m confused.”
