A/N: So I was listening to a song last night and it inspired another story… LOL… This story takes place ten years after Graduation… The song that inspired it was Graduation (Friends Forever) by Vitamin C… The gang all meet back up at their 10 year reunion! This story is dedicated to Cassie, Celia, Katie, Lys, and Steph... You all are the best friends/sisters a gal can have... I love you guys!

Brenda was nervous and she wasn't even sure how she let her brother talk her into coming back for their High School reunion. She didn't want to come alone because she knew the man who still had her heart would be there and probably wouldn't be there alone so she talked her best guy friend into coming with her. Thankfully she was the only one who knew that he was her best friend and nothing else. All she told Brandon was that if she was coming she was bringing a boyfriend with her.
She looked over at Charles and said "Thank you for coming with me. I really didn't want to face the gang alone."
Charles smiled and said "It's not a problem babe. We'll give them something to talk about. Have you even told your brother that we are actually moving to L.A.?"
Brenda shook her head. "No, I figured we could tell him tonight and that way I only have to make the announcement once."
Charles nodded. "I get that Brenda. Josh will be coming out later this week with Mindy. I know how you miss her."
Brenda smiled at the mention of her daughter. "Yes, I do. I still can't believe that she is going to be four years old in six days."
Charles laughed. "Oh I can. Does anyone from here even know you have a daughter or that you were briefly married?"
Brenda shook her head. "Once again no they don't. I figured we'd show them a picture of Mindy tonight and let them think what they want. Are you sure Josh doesn't mind me saying that you're my boyfriend?"
Charles shook with laughter. "No babe he doesn't. In fact if he could of gotten off work to come out early with us he said we could have made everyone question which one of us you were with. But he wants to finish his last two days and finish packing everything you and I haven't packed up yet."
Brenda smiled. "You know Charles, you and Josh are the best friends a gal can ask for. I don't know how I would have gotten through these last four years without you two."
Charles leaned over and kissed Brenda on the head. "Princess you're never going to have to find out. Josh and I are yours just like you and Mindy and are ours."
Brenda smiled again and said "Well we are to meet Brandon at the Peach Pit. He is the only one who knows that I'm even coming. I made him swear not to tell anyone else."
Charles nodded. "I'm ready when you are."
Brenda sighed and led the way out of their hotel room and to the car. The whole entire time she drove she was nervous and fighting with herself not to turn around and go back to the hotel. She didn't even want to be here but she knew that since she gave Brandon her word that she would have to go. A few short minutes later she was pulling up to the Peach Pit and she shut the car off.
She took in a deep breath and turned towards Charles. "Are you ready to put the act of your life on?"
Charles laughed and said "Brenda babe it'll be fine. I won't leave you for a second. We'll get through this tonight and just remember I'm by your side and that you're not alone."
Brenda nodded and got out of the car and walked around to the other side. She smiled when Charles grabbed her hand in his. She knew at that second that this would work. She knew that Charles wouldn't let anyone say or do anything hurtful to her.
As they neared the door she took in a deep breath and pulled open the door and walked in still holding hands with Charles. As soon as she was in her eyes immediately seeked out Brandon. She couldn't help the smile that formed on her face as soon as she saw him. Her eyes connected with his and then she was letting go of Charles's hand and running towards her twin.
Brandon stood up as soon as he saw Brenda and it was just in time to catch her as she came running at him. He wrapped his arms around her and hugged her tightly. It felt good to see his sister and he was happy that he had talked her into coming to the Reunion after all. He knew that she was weary of it and he wasn't sure why.
He pulled back and looked at his sister and said "Well Sis you look amazing."
Brenda smiled and looked Brandon up and down and said "You don't look bad yourself Bro. You didn't tell anyone I was coming did you?"
Brandon shook his head. "Nope and Kelly doesn't even know you're coming. I can't believe I kept that from my fiancé. Now are you going to introduce me into the man standing behind you?"
Brenda turned towards Charles with a sheepish look and then stuck her tongue out at him when she saw him laughing at her and he said "Hello, Brandon it's nice to finally meet you. I've heard so much about you. I'm Charles."
Brandon laughed and saw the love or what he thought was love between Brenda and Charles and said "Well hi Charles it's nice to meet you too. Brenda has been talking about you for the last four years. I'm sorry that we haven't met before now."
Charles shook his head. "Well we'll talk about that later tonight. What time do we have to be at this reunion of your guy's?"
Brandon looked down at his watch and said "Actually we should head there now. Brenda are you two riding with me or following?"
Brenda looked at Charles who said "It's up to you babe."
Brenda smiled at Brandon and said "We'll follow you. That way we can go from the reunion straight to the hotel."
Brandon frowned and said "I thought that you'd stay with me at our old house. I'd really like it if you would Brenda. I would love to have you and Charles stay with me. We need time to catch up."
Brenda looked at Charles who nodded and looked back at Brandon and said "Okay we'll come back to the house but I only want it to be you, Kelly, Charles and me after the reunion Brandon."
Brandon nodded. "That is fine Sis and I'll make sure everyone knows that."
Brenda smiled and said "We'll still follow you. I don't want to leave the rental parked here."
Brandon smiled and gave Brenda a hug and kissed her head and then headed out of the Peach Pit followed by Brenda and Charles. He couldn't wait to see everyone's reactions when they laid eyes on Brenda. He knew they were all going to be very surprised to see here there.
