“We keep running into each other.”
    “Seems like it,” she agreed, filling her bottle.
    “You know, I was thinking about that Kardashian question.”
    “It’s a tough one.”
    “Maybe I’d be able to figure it out if I got to know you better.”
    “Maybe.” She felt color blooming on her cheeks. Her bottle started overflowing and she moved away from the fountain.
    Levi was grinning at her. “You have time for a cup of coffee or something? Tea?
    Scones?”
    “When? Now?”
    “No time like the present. Besides, I always get coffee after I’ve just spent an hour sweating in the gym.”
    “Somehow I find that hard to believe.”
    He shrugged. “Care to join me?”
    She hesitated. What would Hunter think if he knew?
    That thought alone made her angry enough with herself to immediately agree.
    “Absolutely, I’d love to join you,” she said.
    “Awesome. Want to meet out front in like five minutes? I need to change and have a quick shower.”
    “Sure.” Luckily, she had a change of clothes in her gym bag, so she could take a shower too—even though she normally waited until getting home to do so.
    Kallie went and took a very quick shower, wondering what this coffee date actually meant. Was he the kind of guy she could truly be interested in, or was it just a way to try and convince herself she was over Hunter?
    In the end, maybe it didn’t matter, Kallie decided. All that mattered was that she try and do new things and take control of her life again.
    When Kallie walked outside, Levi was waiting for her. He looked even better now, dressed in slim jeans and a light green long sleeve shirt, sunglasses perched on top of his head. “Want to just walk there?” he asked, pointing down the street. “It’s only about a block from here.”
    “I’m game,” Kallie said, and off they went.
    It was strange, walking with someone who wasn’t Hunter. Levi had a totally different energy. He was light, engaging, witty, and she sensed none of the darkness that Hunter typically gave off. At the same time, she wondered about the chemistry—could Levi make her feel the kinds of things that Hunter had made her feel?
    Stop overanalyzing, Kallie scolded herself. Just enjoy.
    Once they got into the coffee shop, Levi walked with her to the register. The girl who worked there asked him for his order, smiling shyly.
    “Large iced coffee, shot of vanilla. And my new friend here…” he turned and looked at her. “What do you want, Kallie?”
    “I’ll just have a small cappuccino.”
    “There you have it, small cappuccino,” he said.
    The girl nodded and rang up the order. “I got this,” Levi said, before Kallie could reach for any money. And then he paid, tipping the girl two bucks on top of the order.
    They went and sat down at a small table by the window.
    Levi gazed out the window for a bit. Kallie watched him, wondering what he was thinking. For a brief moment, his expression changed and she wondered if she’d misjudged him. There was a hardness underneath the humor and lightness, she thought.
    But then the feeling passed and he turned and smiled at her again. “You’re not from around here, are you?”
    Kallie shook her head. “How can you tell?”
    He shrugged. “You don’t have the accent, and you’re way too friendly.”
    “Stop it,” she laughed.
    “I’m serious. Striking up a conversation with a woman at the gym is like seeing Haley’s Comet.”
    “Do you often try to strike up conversations with women at the gym?”
    He pointed at her. “That’s a trick question. I object.”
    “Overruled.”
    “Iced coffee shot of vanilla, cappuccino,” the barista called out.
    “That’s us,” he said, rising.
    “How convenient,” Kallie said.
    She watched him as he went and grabbed their coffees, making a quick comment that made the girl laugh behind the counter.
    Kallie wondered whether Levi really was just one of those ultra gregarious people, or if he was truly interested in her.
    He sat back
