An Unexpected Reunion (closed for literateH)
Rob slowly woke up, not sure if last night had really happened. But his hand was on someone's bare skin, and those were definitely someone's thighs wrapped around his leg. He opened his eyes and saw her looking into his...
Of all the gin joints in all the world. He couldn't believe the odds. Rob had just moved back to Chicago for his new job and looked up a couple of old friends from high school, who had decided they all needed to go to a karaoke bar. Rob had noticed her as soon as they walked in the place, laughing with a group of friends up at the bar. "Is that Jill? From high school?" Rob hissed to Pete. Pete followed his gaze and saw her, too. "Thnk so, man," he said.
Damn, what were the odds? It had been more than ten years since high school, but there she was. Looking even better, if anything. It was the classic story, nerd and cheerleader, except this one didn't have a happy ending. Of course Rob had had a crush on her--pretty much the whole school did--but he never said anything. Why would he, when she always joined in tormenting him with her jock boyfriend? OK, she didn't actually participate when he would knock Rob's books out of his arms, or take his calculator and play keep-away with it by passing it to his friends. But she didn't try to stop it, either, just laughed along with everybody else. She wasn't around for the worst of it: making fun of him in the locker room, the towel-slapping. But she seemed to enjoy his misery just as much as her boyfriend liked causing it.
So Rob couldn't say he was happy to see her last night, though he decided just to ignore her and have a good time with his friends. He certainly never expected things to go the way they did.
