Chapter 15

“‘Johnny Marlowe takes a much needed break with his partner simply identified as Chris.’ What the hell? Identified as Chris by who? Who took this photo?” And more importantly, where else was the picture posted?

“I don’t know. Could have just been a fan.”

“Are there any more?”

“That’s all for this site.”

“But there might be more on other websites.”

“Well, yeah, there might be. But so what if there is?”

“So what if there is? It could ruinmy career. That’s so what.”

“Like it ruined Zachary Quinto’s career?”

“He’s different,” Johnny said stiffly.

“Different how? He got his start on a cult favorite sci-fi show, just like you. You’re definitely better looking than him and you’ve got a big career ahead of you, just like him.”

“You really believe that?”

“Of course I believe you have a big career ahead of you.”

“No, that you think I’m better looking than him.”

“Well…yeah.”

“Because you know, he is pretty magnificent. I met him once. He kind of took my breath away.”
