front of your face. He stars in all of those commercials. He was Kiki’s date for the Grammys.”
    Then I remembered the strange look he had given me when I asked about his shoulder injury. It wasn’t until that moment that he realized I didn’t know who he really was. That explained why he had almost seemed relieved after that. He didn’t have to explain himself around me because I didn’t know anything about his past. That was something I could understand.
    “So what’s he like? Tell me more about him.” Kennedy was literally on the edge of her seat.
    “He’s fine.” For some reason, I didn’t feel like sharing details about Nolan with Kennedy. It felt like a violation of his privacy. “He’s a nice guy.”
    “A nice guy? Fine? I’m going to need more details than that.” Kennedy lowered her shades and peered at me over the top of them.
    Our lounge chairs were just outside of the Seabag so Danny barely had to raise his voice when he called my last name, “Lewis! There’s someone here to see you.”
    Kennedy was already sitting up straight and her jaw dropped open when she turned toward the restaurant. “Holy hotness.”
    I sat up and turned, not sure what to expect. Even after I saw him, I was still in disbelief that Nolan was standing less than ten feet away. “Interesting,” I muttered.
    He waved shyly when he saw me and made his way over. Kennedy was practically hyperventilating. “This is so not real.”
    “Hey,” I said, my lame attempt at a greeting.
    “Lewis?” he asked with a question in his voice.
    “My last name,” I explained. “Jordyn Lewis.”
    He nodded. “Nice name.”
    I saw his eyes dart down to the sand where his face stared back at us from the magazine. “I just learned your full name as well, Nolan Meyers.”
    “Yeah…” He didn’t seem very happy about my discovery. “I guess you were bound to figure it out sooner or later.”
    Kennedy was swooning. “Why don’t you sit down, Nolan? We’d love to have you join us, wouldn’t we, Jordyn?”
    “Sure.” I pulled in my legs, making room for him on the lounger.
    “What brings you by the Seabag?” Kennedy asked as he took a seat.
    It was hard to say for certain with the sun shining so brightly, but it looked like he was blushing when he said, “I came to see Jordyn, actually.”
    “That’s so adorable.” Kennedy was grinning from ear to ear. “Jordyn was just talking about you.”
    I shot her a look of detest and reminded myself to pay her back later. “Kennedy’s a big fan,” I explained.
    “And you’re not?” Nolan pretended to be offended.
    “Honestly, I don’t watch a lot of baseball.” I added, “But I’m sure you’re quite talented.”
    “I do have a lot of talents.” Nolan grinned at me and I thought Kennedy might faint on the spot.
    “So why did you come all the way down to the beach to see our little Jordyn?” Kennedy wasn’t even trying to hide her giddiness.
    “Well, I’m glad you asked.” He turned away from me and focused on Kennedy. “I’d like to take your friend on a date this evening, if you think she would be interested.”
    My heart thudded.
    Kennedy pretended to think it over. “That sounds like something she would enjoy. What were you planning to do on this date?”
    “I don’t know much about this town. Perhaps dinner and a movie? I hear that’s something kids like to do these days.” Nolan was enjoying their game.
    “Jordyn does like to eat. A lot. Too much sometimes.”
    “Hi. Sitting right here.” I waved a hand. “And I’m sorry to disappoint you both, but I already have plans tonight.”
    “Plans!” Kennedy glared at me. “Sitting on your couch watching television does not count as plans.”
    I returned her glare. “Tonight is the town carnival. We promised Brian we would go with him, remember?”
    “Oh, right. Brian.” Kennedy pouted. “He probably wouldn’t care if you canceled.”
    “I’m not going to cancel on him.”
    “I’m feeling left
