“It was nothing.”
“Not what the Bayside Blogger is saying,” one of the men at the end of the bar offered.
“Bayside Blogger said you saw your high school girlfriend and fell into the bay,” added the other man.
Carissa’s mouth dropped open. She’d thought someone had been around her when she’d stopped to look out over the water. Jasper had been at the dock when she’d pulled up a couple hours ago? He’d fallen into the bay? Because of her?
“Jasp—”
“Don’t say anything.”
She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. But she decided to give him a break since he looked so uncomfortable. “Who is this Bayside Blogger I keep hearing about?”
He looked relieved at the change in topic. “The Bayside Blogger...” He proceeded to tell her all about the town’s biggest gossip columnist as they enjoyed their drinks.
“So, Carissa Blackwell...” He trailed off sometime later and met her eyes. A shadow fell over his face. “Sorry, I don’t know what your married name is.”
They were just finishing their second round of fried mozzarella sticks. Not to mention they’d kept the drinks flowing. Carissa felt warm and toasty. Her drive, the gossip, the Bayside Blogger, all forgotten.
Ah, she understood. “I never changed my name, actually.”
