Whippet- The Actors Reunited
Your POV
Backstory-I used to be an actor several years ago, I was on Home And Away, with Ryan Clark. When he left the show, I never saw him again. It's been a long time since I've seen him, we lost contact when we left. I moved to America, got a new number, and somehow lost his.

Now- I've been saving, since the day I lost contact with Ryan, to fly to Australia to visit him. I have been in contact with his boss Bruce. He had organised for someone to pick me up from the airport, the only problem was I didn't know who I was supposed to look for, and they didn't know what I looked like.

The plane landed and I heard people asking "are you Y/N?" To everyone that passed.

They seemed relieved when I said, "I'm Y/N did Bruce send you to pick my up?"

"Yes he did, I'm Deano, this is Maxi, Chappo, Harries and Kerrbox. They're just nicknames don't worry." He said pointing to everyone then laughing. They all waved, whilst Maxi bear-hugged me. "Probably should have told you, he's a big kid inside. Also, Whip is gonna be so happy!" I looked at him confused and before I could ask he said: "Whip is short for Whippet which is Ryan's nickname."I nodded finally understanding what he meant by 'Whip'

After driving to Bondi, they walked into the tower and told me to wait. I did and after a few seconds knocked on the door. Deano answered and acted like he didn't know me "g'day I'm Deano, how can I help you?" He asked smirking.

"Hi there, I'm looking for an old friend. Goes by the name Whippet now, I believe." I said, just then he poked his head around the corner.

"Y/N?!" He shouted.

"Ryan!" I shouted back as he ran around the corner and engulfed me in the biggest, warmest and the most welcoming hug ever. "I've missed you so much! But, I've missed your hugs even more Bear." Bear is a nickname I gave Ryan when we were younger because he always greeted me with the biggest bear hugs.
"I see my name stuck then." He laughed whilst everyone looked so confused so he explained. "Bear was a nickname Y/N gave to me when we acted on home and away together. I was called Bear because I always gave her a massive bear hug when I saw her."

"Ohhhh," everyone said at the same time.

Me and Whippet, that doesn't sound right, Ryan and Bear do, probably because I've never called him that before. Anyway, we spent the whole day catching up, it was amazing. Seeing what he does on a daily basis, the people who care about him and best of all, seeing how happy he was with his wife, Gina, and son, Nixon who he loved very much.

I loved Bondi so much I decided to stay.

5 years later
It had been 5 years since I decided to stay at Bondi, it was safe to say it was the best decision I had ever made. I got a job at the surf shop, as a cashier, and Bear taught me how to surf. I went out everyday with the boys until the incident that happened last year.

Last year I was out surfing with the guys when out of nowhere a shark surfaced and bit my leg off. I now have a prosthetic leg and it's like learning everything all over again. I had to learn to stand, walk, jog and run again. All the boys decided to chip in, on my birthday I only had one present, I didn't mind, I was never one to want many gifts. When I opened it I was so happy. It was a waterproof prosthetic leg, the boys convinced me that I will surf again and that they would do everything in their power to help me surf again.

After a few months, I was finally able to surf again. I went out with the guys every day like I did before I lost my leg. It was amazing, I loved it.
