The rest of the week passed quickly but sweetly. We drove down in my new car to show my parents before going to the reunion. 

I recieved many admiring glances for me and the car when we parked up. I reconigsed a few faces and smiled to show my greeting. 

"Are we staying long?" Adnan moaned clinging to my arm.

"Not if you don't want too." I kissed him on the cheek. 

We walked briskly to the hall eager to avoid the cold outside. Inside the room was packed.

"Jenny!" I heard a girl scream. I turned around to reveal Tiny, the friendly but loud friend I haven't seen in a while. 

We spoke for for a few minutes when Adnan went to get some drinks. 

"Jen gosh it's been a while." Tom stated while giving me a hug. "I saw your ride it's sweet." 

"Thanks Adnan brought it as a birthday present." His green eyes glowed with jealously. 

"Bagged yourself a footballer then good on ya." He used to ask me out loads when we were in school but he was also one of my better friends.

I met a few other people enjoying the laughs we had. Adnan stood like a show dog as he was admired. People even asked for some autographs from him. 

"Oh my gosh Jen. Sam is married. Angie is pregnant and Lacey is in rehab" Soph shouted shocking me and Adnan.

After a while of talking Adnan whispered in my ear. "Babe I left my phone in the car I'm just going to get it." I nodded. 

"I'm just gonna get a drink."  I excused myself causing the Soph to join in a conversation with someone else. 

I avoided the crowds of people, swiverling through everyone. Although my concentration wavered making me bump into someone on the way.

"Sorry." I said as I stumbled back.

"It's okay darling." No. It can't be him. I gazed up and saw him. Ali. He realised who I was and looked taken aback. "Jen." 

Hearing my name from his lips made me shiver. All the bad memories flooded back to me. "Alistair." My voice sounded deep and unnatural. I hadn't said his full name in God knows when.

"How are you?" He asked taking a sip from his drink. 

"Im doing good thank you, you?" I asked keeping my voice as normal as possible.

"Same thanks, heard you got yourself a footballer." Even his voice was wavering. 

"Yeah Adnan he's just getting his phone. How's your love life?" I smiled signalising we were okay.

"Single, all the other girls I've been with seem to be dumb." He snicked. I chuckled slightly.

"Yeah got to pick them right." 

"Guess I made too many mistakes that I can't fix." He looked me in the eye, I met his stare. 

"Yeah I suppose you did." My lips barely parted making my words muffled.

"Jen." Adnan called kissing my cheek. I watched Ali's face change becoming much darker. It reminded me of when he got angry in our relationship.

"Adnan." I smiled at him. He was slightly taller than Ali and had more muscle. "Adnan this is Ali." 

His eyes turned stormy, his face changing like a shadow. It was quite frightening. The room seemed to turn colder. Ali held out his hand which Adnan politely took but I could feel the power between the shake. 

"I have to go find some of my friends I'll see you soon Jen." He whisked a piece of hair out of my face causing Adnan to stiffen next to me. 

"Bye." I replied relieved, my lip biting starting to ease.

"Why were you talking to him?" Adnan snapped when Ali cleared away. I could notice the brown swishing hair and the crystal blue eyes from a mile off. 

"We bumped into eachother and started talking, calm down." I reassured him.

We stayed for another hour before deciding to retire, I recieved some numbers and gave out my number to a few people hoping to have more contact with them again. 

When we got back to the hotel room I felt like putting my sweats on and relaxing so I did just that. We watched black chicks and I was laughing my head off. Adnan found both the film and my laugh hystarical. 

"You have a pig laugh." He laughed during the film. 

"You have a pig face." I replied calming down from my fits of laughter. 

The film ended with me crying on the floor and Adnan trying to calm me down. Adnan was in a suit but he didn't have a jacket on and boy did he look sexy. 

"Your tushi is so lush in those trousers." I remarked as he bent over to pick some paper up. "Your whole outfit right now turns me on." 

"Come on then chicka." He carried me bridal style to the bedroom.
