48. meeting again at a high school reunion au
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This was the 5th time Ivan and his sister had started arguing about him going to the high school reunion that he had been invited to. Honestly he had thought she would have given up by now but for some reason she stayed strong and insistent.
"How can you say your not going!? It’s a chance to see your old classmates and show them how successful you have become."
“I just don’t see the reason it wasn’t like I had any friends in the school.”
“What about her? She and I couldn’t stand each other all we did was argue and occasionally throw punches.”
His sister just raised an eyebrow “uh huh.”
"Nothing~" now she was walking away and Ivan couldn’t just let that go.
“I just have it on good authority she was looking forward to seeing you after all this time.” Now there was a surprise.
"Who’s authority?" He asked narrowing his eyes. She just gave a sly smile "not telling~"
The reunion was held in a rather tasteful bar and decorated with pictures of the class from when they were in high school. Ivan found her looking at a picture with a strange look on her face. Looking at the picture he recognized it as a picture of her on prom night on the arm of her date a jock that Ivan couldn’t remember the name of. She looked almost sad?
He didn’t like that look for some reason. “Amelia.”
The look was gone almost immediately as she turned her bright smile to him. “Ivan!” She nearly shouted as she threw her arms around him. “It’s been so long how are you!?”
Unsure what to do he just patted her back and smiled “I have been doing well, what about you?”
She pulled back and pushes her blond bangs out of her face “Good I have been good” she looked like she wanted to say more but stopped herself.
They both shifted uncomfortably for a few moments before Amelia spoke again. “So have you gotten a chance to look at the pictures?”
Ivan shook his head. Apparently this was good because Amelia was more than happy to lead him around looking at the pictures and remembering the ‘golden years’. While they looked at them Ivan found out that Amelia had gone to school and become an astronaut after high school and that now she was writing a book about what her struggles were like being a woman in her profession as well as how amazing the journey was. In return Ivan told her about the flower company that he and his sisters had opened and had blushed at the light teasing that she gave because of it.
Eventually they came back to the picture of Amelia at prom and she got that same sad and wistful look on her face. Ivan opened his mouth to ask but didn’t get the chance because she beat him to it. “You know whats weird. All those years of school and there’s really only one thing I regret.” She turned to him “That prom. I - I just I really wanted to go with someone else. I wanted to go with you.”
Of all the things she could have said he hadn’t been expecting that. A little dazed by the abrupt confession he just blinked. “What?”
A look of frustration crossed over her face “I just I wanted to go with you. But I didn’t want to ask and I was so scared to even try and-”
“Coffee” she stopped and looked up at him so he repeated himself “Coffee, we should go get coffee together and you can tell me all about how you wanted to go on a date with me.”
She stared for a moment before smiling. “Ok”
