How to do Laravel Eloquent get with a specific item appearing first for pagination

I have a use case where I need to get all the rows from a table with the currently selected row appearing first and show the rest as the user scrolls through the table. I currently have it setup where I use the eloquent find to fetch the individual item and then use the eloquent get and merge the results if the page number is 1. Is there a better way to handle this or is this the best way to handle this use case?
