So, where to run into him? Swim meets will be easy. There are two coming up, the last of our season and then state qualifiers. Dominic will definitely be there to cheer Miguel on. He never missed a home meet for me, and would even move shifts around at work so he could always be there.

Work—where he leads bus tours at the Hollywood Walk of Fame—is definitely another spot where he can “accidentally” see me and Ross together. It’s a huge tourist attraction, so it would make sense that I’d show Ross from “Indiana” what the Walk of Fame is all about. When Dominic and I first met, this was one of my favorite things about him. His dad owns the tour company, so Dominic has grown up his whole life having a passion for movies and movie stars, specifically. He’d let me go on and on for hours about the best rom-coms and could fire back with facts about his favorite celebrities, hoping some of these actors would be his publicity clients in the future. He was the one who introduced me to the LuxeFlix Theater and their romance movie night the second Tuesday of each month.

Which just happens to be tomorrow. He never missed a showing, so I bet he’ll be there. It can be the first of our Win Dominic Back scenes.
