Sunny disposition: alternate cover edition - deanna grey

Naomi I cant understand why - out of the four hockey players Im sharing a house with this semester - Finn Howards the one who catches my eye.

The guy never smiles.

He doesnt say much and disapproves plenty.

But, something about him feels familiar.

Something about him feels safe.

Im not falling for Finn, Im just curious.

Could I make him smile? It wouldnt hurt to try.

I love a good challenge.

And who knows, maybe itll distract me from pining over a guy I meet online.

Finn I dont get nervous unless Im on the ice.

So why does my chest feel tight whenever Naomi Lewis looks in my direction? Shes witty, kind, and happy.

How is someone that happy all the time? If her sunny disposition isnt enough to distract me, the fact that her voice sounds exactly like the streamer I anonymously moderate for will.

If Naomi is her, shes in for a huge disappointment.

Im not the guy she thinks I am.

not anymore, at least.

And for that reason alone, I should stay away from her.

I should stop trying to get closer.

I should stop wanting her because she fell for someone else.

Someone I will never be again.
