Today is my very first reunion and I am very worried about what could have happened to Noah. He has always been there when I needed him, but one day he just disappeared and I never heard about him again. Noah, he was one of the coolest and kindest person I had ever met. Moreover, I maybe thought he looked handsome when we were teens, just a little...what the hell am I thinking. I shake my head to try and regain a little bit of focus. Then I get back to thinking about him, why do I always think about him?

Strangely enough, I still remember his physical features. His hair had a brown colour with a fading of ginger, he always looked so confident and he always wore a watch on his left wrist. However, what was the most impressive thing about him was his eyes. I sigh happily with my hand under my chine while I waited for Maya's instructions in the room that she had teleported me to. His beautiful metallic eyes, they were so piercing and deep. Each time that I looked at them, I always ended up breathless and somehow happy.

I open my eyes slowly feeling something close to my face, I then see those exact same eyes, but one of them is more bluish. "Mikey I have been trying to get your attention for over a minute," the man before me says in a teasing way. I start feeling my cheeks get hotter and hotter the more I looked at Noah. He continues looking at me somehow troubled, but he soon asks, "Are you ok Mikey?" I nod still looking into his eyes, "How did I even end up here?" I think still looking at him.

*Ten minutes before the reunion*

"Mikey!"

I hear my name being scream by Charlie, so I decide to go see what she wanted from me. "You called Charlie?" I asked looking at her and then at the other person that was there. "Yes, as you can see Maya has arrived to take us to our reunions," she answers. "Thanks Charlie, and hi Maya," I say to them both. Maya who was silently reading a paper in her hands looks at me and she then says, "Hello Michael how was your first night here?" "It was good thank you for asking," I answer politely. "That's good to know," she says happily. Then she puts the paper that she had in her hands in her pocket. "Now, I will explain you what is going to happen before your reunion starts," she says. "Alright," we both say at the same time. She smiles at us and then she continues with a more serious tone, ", First, I am going to teleport you into a room, when you get there you either have to wait for the people to arrive or you will be there after they arrived. After you and the people that you will be in the reunion with have all arrived. I will give you the instruction, the rules to follow, the consequences if you don't obey and the maximum time that you will be kept there." "She pauses for a moment looking at us and she finishes by asking, "Did you understand everything?"

I looked at Charlie and she looked back at me. She looks like she understood everything so I finish by responding, "Yes we understood." Maya looks at us and she smiles warmly, "Then that's settle. Just take my hands and you will be teleported to the room." We come closer to her and we take one of her hands that she was extending to us. Then everything was dark for a few seconds. When my vision came back to me, I realized that I was in a room. The room looked very welcoming and it brought me some peace of mind. Even if I still felt a little bit dizzy, it did help me calm my nerves.

I went to a corner to wait there until Noah gets into this room, then I started to think about him when we were young and stupide.
