“I am.” Well, thinking about it. “How else am I going to meet someone?”

“You don’t need a dating site. I know heaps of handsome single guys just looking for a special relationship with a girl like you.”

What did that mean? “

A girl like me? What single and desperate? An introvert with no life?”

“You have a life. Although when is the last time you left the house?”

Umm.

“The cookout?” she guessed. Online shopping made it so much easier to stay in the house and hide.

Ellie sighed. “Maybe you would meet someone if you got out and about. What if the guy you go out with is some sort of psycho axe murderer?”

“I don’t think there’s a category for that on Tinder.”

“Smart-ass.”

“Don’t worry. I’m sure there are better ways for axe murderers to find victims.”

Ellie sighed. “I worry about you.”

“I’m fine. I just. . .I don’t want to regret not trying. I’m not ready to end up a lonely old maid. And my idea to meet a guy by hanging out in the meat aisle of the grocery story doesn’t seem to be working,” she joked.

“You eat meat? I thought you lived on candy and chocolate.”

“Pretty much, guys ‘round here don’t look like they eat much sugar though.” Most of the men she’d seen were fit and ripped.

“I don’t think any of JSI’s boys do,” Ellie replied. “Their bodies are their temples. And boy, you can tell.”

“Says the woman with her own hunk of spunk.” Whoops. What if Ellie took offense to her noticing how gorgeous her man was?

But Ellie just sighed dreamily. “He sure is.”

Daisy made pretend gagging noises.

“Oh hush,” Ellie told her. “You won’t be a lonely old maid. Let me set you up.”

“With who?” she asked suspiciously.

“There’s a number of really great guys here at Sanctuary,” Ellie said enthusiastically.

“That’s not a good idea.”

“Why not?”

“Because Jed lives there? What if they’re friends with him? What if we fall in love and I move in with them? How awkward would that be?”

“Daisy, what you and Jed had was over a long time ago.” She’d told Ellie the very basics of how they knew each other.

“Ouch,” she muttered.

“Not saying it to be mean, but I’m sure he wouldn’t worry if you started dating a guy from here.”

She wasn’t so sure. Ellie hadn’t seen the way that Jed had looked at her.

“I’m gonna try the online dating thing, if it doesn’t work out, I’ll let you fix me up. Deal?”
