My High School Reunion

Chapter 1

Nate's P.O.V:

Climbing off of the plane I felt somewhat liberated because I now had 6 months leave from the Army - I guess saving up my days worked to my advantage because now I can see my two best friends Jordan and Ashton. I have known those two since we were in school together and were always causing trouble.

As soon as I got home I pressed the button on my answering machine and had messages from my mum basically saying 'Sweety I'm so glad you're back! Give me a ring whenever you can, I love you' I smiled because I love my mum so much she was always there for me and supported me in whatever I did. My next two messages got me so hyped up - they were from Jordan and Ashton saying that they too had 6 months leave and were on their way home.

I unpacked all of my belongings and made my way over to the pile of mail collecting on my coffee table. Most of them were bills that I would need to take care of in the morning but one had my name handwritten across the envelope. Intrigued I opened it carefully and began to read;

Dear Nathan,

As it has been 10 years since the class of '03' graduated, I am organising a high school reunion at Beaumont High on the 23rd June, starting at 7 and finishing at 12.

I hope you are able to come and reminisce with your old school friends and see how well everyone has done with their lives.

Looking forward to seeing you there.

Amelia Hartford,

 (Organising Committee)

Whoa! A high school reunion, do I really want to go to that? Well I would get to see Amelia again which I definitely want to do, so it looks like I'm going. Hopefully Jordan and Ashton go as well so I'm not on my own for the night if Amelia refuses to speak to me.

I woke up the next morning to the loud banging on my front door. Whoever it is better have a good reason to wake me up this early. "I'm coming. I'm coming" swinging open the door I ended up looking straight into the eyes of Ashton "Holy shit Ash! I wasn't expecting you this early" he smirked "I know so surprise" I laughed and invited him in and we began talking about our life in the forces and how it has changed our lives.

"So Ash, any women on the scene?" he shook his head "No, I mean I've had my fair share of women don't get me wrong but none of it felt right" I smiled sadly "Yeah I know what you mean. There is only one girl I want and I'm hoping that this reunion will help" he looked confused "You're not still hooked up on Lia are you? and what reunion?" I smiled "Yeah Lia, she was perfect and I was an asshole so I will be fixing that and the reunion is our high school reunion. I found the invite last night so I assume you and 'J' will have one too." he shook his head "Oh no don't look at me like that I'm not going. I can't even bare to look at Roxanne because of what I did to her throughout high school" I couldn't reply because someone was knocking on my door - I hoped it was Jordan. I was right! "Hey man!" was the greeting I received "Hey, come on in. I need your help" he threw his stuff on the floor and collapsed on the couch "What's up?" I looked over at him "Well you see we've been invited to our high school reunion. I want to go to see Amelia and apologise but this pansy ass over here doesn't want to see Roxy because he's embarrassed. Help me convince him to go, you can see Isabelle as well" he looked shocked because he never thought he would get to see Isabelle again and apologise. "I'm in. Now we need to go out tonight" Ash stood up "I know exactly where to go. There is a nightclub here called 'Foxy Roxy's' apparently that is the go to club around here and so that is were we are going"

We spent the rest of the day deciding how we would apologise to our women when we saw them and then went off to get ready to go clubbing. As soon as 9oclock rolled around we left the house and made our way down to the club. "So who do you reckon owns this place then?" Ash asks us "I have no idea but bet she's fit!" Jordan replies "Definitely" I agreed.

We queued up just like everyone else and when we finally got in I could definitely see why this place was so popular. The walls were black, just like the floor. The bar and DJ area were a sexy red colour which worked well with the black  and then there were the lights - many strobe lights were placed around the dance floor and some were above some booths and tables surrounding the dance floor where people can sit and relax.

 We made our way over to the bar and the bar maid came over to us "Hi, welcome to Foxy Roxy's, my name is Belle what can I get for you handsome men?" I smirked and looked over at my friends "3 beers please" she smiled "Coming right up sweet cheeks" as she got to work Jordan leant over and whispered to us "Man she is fit" I couldn't help but agree because she seriously was. Belle brought us back our beers and was about to ask us something when another woman shouted "Are you flirting with customers again Belle?" she leant back and crossed her arms over her chest "Maybe, maybe not, what's it to you?" she came over "Sorry lads. Belle have you seen Lia? Sam is looking for her and is going to freak out if she doesn't turn up" someone who I assume was Sam came up and said "Don't worry about it Roxy, she can always meet him another time" she shook her head "No! I don't understand how organising some shitty reunion is more important than meeting Ray."

Looking over at the guys I whispered "You don't think that's them do you?" Ashton looked over at Roxy and then back at us "I think it actually might be. Shit, don't let them know it's us" Jordan and I agreed and we continued drinking for another 30 minutes until;

 "LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED"
