Alicia POV
I watched as Leo’s Jeep vanished into the distance, swallowed by a swirling cloud of dust. The moment felt oddly still as I stared after him. I flinched when my phone erupted with pings, followed by a buzzing stream. Baffled, I glanced down, only to find my screen flooded with new followers pouring in like a digital tidal wave.
Kayla casually sucked on the mint candy Leo had left behind, barely sparing me a glance as she propped her elbow on my shoulder. “That guy’s a walking traffic magnet…”
“Kayla…”
“Hm?” she hummed absently.
“Check this out.”
She dropped her arm and leaned in, her eyes scanning the screen before flicking up to mine, a slow grin spreading across her face. “I guess he was right.” She nudged me lightly. “You two are good together.”
I rolled my eyes and shoved my phone back into my pocket. My eyes strayed to the car and I jerked my chin towards it. “Shall we give it another try?”
