Chapter 25

Ellie

It’s been over a week since I’ve seen Sam, and they’ve been the longest days of my life. All week I’ve been wondering why he said he might relocate to Seattle. If he does, I’m sure Jenny will move with him. Could I handle living in the same city as him? Seattle’s big, but with the coincidences we’ve already experienced, I’m sure I’ll run into him.

I’ve been watching sports news and social media for any mention about him and Seattle, but there’s been nothing. Me, of all people, reading sports news. I have no clue. I’m watching Jenny’s Facebook and Instagram accounts too. She’s constantly gushing over him and making it sound like they’re really happy. But… no comments about moving to Seattle.

I’m not proud about it, but I broke down and started watching YouTube videos of him. Games, interviews, commercials he’s made. I’ve seen recaps of his best goals. The more I watch, the more obvious it is that soccer’s his passion. It’s his life. On top of all that, he’s just as gorgeous as I remember, if not more.

I think I’m becoming a cyber stalker.

Well, my heart and soul aren’t in my job, that’s for sure. I stare at my computer, browsing the huge list of cases Stephanie has delegated to me. The other associates seem to have fewer cases. I can’t focus on each one like I want to. I might as well set up camp in the courthouse. I’m wishing I’d chosen another career. I only went to law school because my father told me I’d be good at it, with how I debated everything at home and in high school. It was impossible to win an argument with me. I was good at analyzing and connecting the dots. I still am—that’s why they call me the Tiger Lady at work. I find the loopholes.

Almost every night after work I write like a maniac. Memories of Us is coming along better than I expected. As I write the chapters, I keep remembering little details, things that couldn’t have been mere coincidence. I mean, one of my Sam’s favorite things was sports. I watched him playing soccer with that boy at the resort. The real Sam plays soccer for a living. How could I dream something like that? I highly doubt we talked about it at the airport.

I keep all this information inside. Gale thinks I’m losing my mind. Maybe I am. I feel lost in this world right now. I’m not the same person I was before the accident. The only thing I look forward to is writing this book. I think about it every second I’m awake. I carry a little notebook in my bag in case I remember something else.

The other day I was going to visit my mom. When I stopped at a light, I realized I was nowhere near her apartment. I was too distracted with my thoughts and ideas for this book.

The biggest reason I love writing it is that I get to relive every moment I spent together with Sam.
