All Chapters of Catfish: Body Double Edition: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I was a goody two-shoes. I was sweet and soft-spoken, polite and careful with money, the kind of person who read a lot and knew how to behave. I always looked bright and cheerful, and I worked hard at my studies.Yeah, right. That was just the role I played in front of my older relatives.The real me was a completely different story.I was rebellious and sharp-tongued, with a wild streak, a calculating side, and a long memory for grudges. And I wasn't someone people could push around.I also had a strong desire in every sense of the word.After I took the SATs, I spent every day glued to my phone, scrolling through good-looking guys. Whether it was lean jocks, sunshiney golden-retriever guys, or cold, off-limits upperclassmen, I hit like and saved every single one.The more I scrolled, the more excited I felt and the more restless I became.So, I started dating a hot guy online named Logan Wright. He was one year older than me and was currently in college.He was about six feet

I wondered if Troy had hidden his posts because his Instagram was empty. Even his profile picture felt weirdly generic, like something from a brand-new burner account.Logan wasn't messing with me, was he?I was still second-guessing him when my phone lit up with a bunch of new messages."Hello, Zoey Collins. I'm Troy Levine. Logan said he wanted to introduce us so you could be my girlfriend."I've been thinking about dating someone lately, and I think we could give it a try."But I'm worried that I might not be your type. I'll send you some photos first, and you can decide if you want to be with me after you see them."I bit my lip and slowly slid my finger up the screen, squinting as I opened the photo. A second later, my eyes flew wide.A cute guy could make me blush and set my heart racing, but Troy's photo had me so dizzy I felt like I might get a nosebleed.I kicked my legs against the mattress, too excited to keep still.Right then, Logan texted me, "Troy isn't the easi

Troy and I hadn't even met in person yet, but that didn't stop us from getting ridiculously close. We even fell asleep on the phone together every night.Logan found it unbelievable. The Troy he knew looked untouchable. He stayed cold with everyone and kept to himself.In the entire year they'd lived together, the only time Troy ever reached out first was when he sent Logan that photo of himself jerking off. Before that, they hadn't even added each other on WhatsApp.Because of that, Logan decided Troy was actually someone he could get along with. Troy didn't talk much, but when something came up, he really stepped up.Logan also felt pretty proud of himself for setting me up with Troy.I had my phone on speaker while I was packing my suitcase.Logan's voice suddenly came through, "Hey, you two are all lovey-dovey every day and totally forget this poor single guy exists. But it's fine. Once I find her, I won't be single much longer."Then, the four of us can take a trip together

Troy and I shared a look, then quickly stepped aside.I groaned inwardly. With the way things were right then, it felt like if we didn't at least do something, we'd have been misunderstood for nothing.I shook my head, pushed all the weird thoughts away, and let Troy pull me forward.Once we stepped into the room, he checked for hidden cameras. When he was sure it was safe, he took out the disposable sheets and covers.I stood off to the side, stealing glances at Troy's profile. His nose was so perfect that I wondered if he'd gotten work done. And his jawline made me wonder if he'd had a thread lift, because I couldn't see a single needle mark.I kept marveling to myself that someone in real life could actually look like this and that this guy was actually my boyfriend. Damn, I really was something!I was staring at Troy, completely absorbed, when he suddenly turned his head.Caught swooning over him, I suddenly felt uneasy. "W-What is it?"Troy stared straight at me, as if he

I hid a mischievous smile and forced my expression to smooth out. "You made that decision without even asking me. I wasn't happy about that."Troy's gaze dropped. "I'm sorry. I saw people flooding the confessions page with posts about you, and it really messed with my head. I said something I shouldn't have because I was upset. I won't do that again."Please don't stay mad at me."I looked at him and almost laughed.I cleared my throat. "It isn't that hard to cheer me up."Troy's eyes brightened. "What do you want me to do?"I lifted my brows and leaned close to his ear. "Hey, you really didn't edit that photo? I still don't believe a human body can actually look like that, so let me see the real thing."Troy froze, and once it registered, his face went bright red. "N-Now?"I nodded. "Yeah, right now."Troy's lashes fluttered. "Babe, you're so direct."I clicked my tongue. "Are you going to let me see it or not?"He pulled his phone from his pocket. "Yes, yes. I'll book a ho
