I was thinking if it was the right idea.
The assistant director knocked, “Mr. Sterling,
Miss, are you guys going to keep filming?”

looking at me.

I told Chase, “Go finish the show, we’ll talk at
home.”
Chase didn’t like that, “You have to say you’ll
control me before I go.”
Ugh, this kid!

“Do you want to get beat again? Do you like
that?”
Chase said, “Yes.”
This guy is crazy. I grabbed my face, “Okay,
okay, I promise, I’ll keep you in check. Just
go, and don’t say stupid things!”
He was never going to stop saving stupid
He had called me “baby” on live tv. The cast
was pretending it was nothing, but the
internet was going nuts.
But Chase never did the normal thing, as long
as he wasn’t breaking any rules, the fans
would support him.
He had a buddy, Liam, he called him.
Before the guy had said anything, Chase said, “How did you know I had a girlfriend?”
Liam was quiet, and said, “Get lost!”
Now Chase’s agent didn’t have to think of a
plan, the whole world knew I was his girl.

never stopped.
When the show was done, the director had
enough and wanted to do a live show with me
and Chase.
I agreed, if I was going to be with Chase, I
needed to do this.
I got ready, and wore a pretty outfit. Chase
stared at me.
I told him, “Stop looking!”
He smiled and took my hand, “My girl is so
pretty, what am I supposed to do?”
The show host brought us over and sat us
down, then started asking us pre–written

“How did you two meet?”
We had planned out what to say. It wasn’t
going to be about money.
They wanted a basic “love at first sight” story
for Chase.
But Chase didn’t say that, he looked down.
“Three years ago, I was filming. I called my
mom, I wanted to tell her it was my birthday.
But she was busy, and couldn’t talk.
“I don’t remember the last time she had told
me ‘Happy Birthday‘ on the right day. I don’t
even remember her birthday cakes anymore.”

This was the first time that Chase had said
anything about his mom. I was surprised, and
the internet comments also went silent.
“I felt bad, so I started playing games, and
kept losing. A random person asked if I
wanted to play, and I said yes.
“She was good, she carried me through the
night. Then when the game was about to end,
she put on a song and said, ‘If you pick up
the sword, you can’t get a hug. But if you
don’t have the sword, you can’t get a hug’.
“I didn’t know who she was then, and I got
mixed up. But, I know who she is. And when I
felt bad, that person was there for me. That person wished me a Happy Birthday.”

Chase was looking at me, with stars in his
eyes.
I was shocked.
He knew.
I thought he had forgotten.
The host asked, “Miss Alex? Did you also
meet Mr. Sterling through a game?”
I shook my head, “No, it was before that.
