Chapter 2

Nathan arrived at the Tree Hill Community Center Room 200. He took off his shoes, grabbed a yoga mat, sat it down, and sat on the mat. No one else was there yet.

"I hope I'm not the only one," Nathan said.

Jamie and Chuck walked into the room.

"I cannot believe I let you talk me into coming to this class," Chuck said. "I'm more of a weight lifter and treadmill runner."

"Yoga's good for you," Jamie said. "And the class is called Positivity Matters. Maybe it will make you more positive."

"I'll be positive when they catch that abusive monster," Chuck said.

"Dad?" Jamie asked.

"Hey Jamie," Nathan said. "Chuck."

"What are you doing here?" Jamie asked. "You don't seem like the yoga type."

"Neither do you," Nathan said.

"I do yoga," Jamie said.

"Since when?" Nathan asked.

"Since ever," Jamie said. "It helps keep me calm."

Nathan and Chuck began to laugh.

"What's so funny?" Jamie asked.

"Nothing," Chuck said.

Jamie and Chuck took their shoes off and each grabbed a yoga mat. Jamie sat his beside Nathan and sat down while Chuck sat his a few feet behind.

"So why did you sign up?" Nathan asked.

"I thought it would relieve some of the stress I've been under lately," Jamie replied.

Clay walked into the room.

"Don't tell me," Clay said. "Positivity Matters?"

"Yes," Nathan said.

Clay took his shoes off, grabbed at mat, sat it beside Chuck, and sat down.

"So I wonder who our instructor is," Clay said.

Julian walked into the room.

"Positivity Matters?" Julian asked.

"Join the club," Jamie said.

Julian took off his shoes, got a mat, sat it beside Jamie, and sat down.

"Do you know who our instructor is?" Julian asked.

"Not yet," Nathan said.

Mouth walked in.

"Positivity…" Mouth said.

"Yeah," Jamie said.

Mouth took off his shoes, grabbed a mat, sat it on the other side of Chuck's mat, and sat down.

"We don't know who our instructor is yet," Jamie said.

Chris walked into the room, took off his shoes, grabbed a mat, sat it down in the front of the room, and sat on it.

"Good afternoon class," Chris said.

"You have got to be kidding me," Nathan said.

"Hi Chris!" Chuck said excitedly.

"Hi Chuck," Chris said.

"Chris Keller doesn't need to introduce himself because you all know who I am," Chris said. "Welcome to Positivity Matters."

"Hey Jamie," Chuck said. "You're right. I am going to like this class."

"First things first," Chris said getting up.

Chris walked out of the room and came back in with a drink cooler. Chris handed out a bottle of lite beer to everyone.

"What's with the beer?" Mouth asked.

"Haven't you heard of Beer Yoga?" Chris asked.

"That's a thing?" Clay asked.

"Yeah," Jamie said. "Haven't you seen the pictures on the internet?"

"Beer Yoga," Nathan said. "I think I'm going to like this class after all."
