Reunion Mr. Raditch

Mr. Raditch stood up at the podeum on the stage.

Mr. Raditch: Attention every one please take your seats.

Every one sat down and turned around, feeling like they were back in school again.

Mr. Raditch: It is great seeing all of you again, but I am not going to babble on. So let's just bring out our speaker tonight. She is a Degrassi student, she was class president a few years back and here she is Degrassi's very own Ms. Ashley Kerwin. Soon to be followed by Paige Michalchuck.

Ashley approached the poddeum and was blinded by the spot light.

Ashley: I am so excited to be back here at Degrassi. It has been great seeing all of you. Sure I was a little nervous coming back here as I am sure all of you were. Because lets face it we didn't all get along, all the time. But now we are all back together and it finally feels right. Many of you are married and have brought your own families here tonight to join in what I think we have created. our own Degrassi family. I have tried to talk to most of you tonight and it seems that every ones dreams weather they have changed or not have come true. So tonight lets raise our glasses and give a toast, to our past and our future to our own Degrassi Family.

Back at the guys table Craig couldn't believe how great Ashley looked and how well she handled the crowd.

Soon Ashley was off stage and Paige had taken her spot.

Paige: Before I came here I was looking back at some of our old times. I couldn't believe some of the stuff I, or we all did. I thought about back when the spirit squad first started and I did that completely freaky thing on the announcements. We were all so young, we really didn't care what other people thought. Well wait I take that back, that brings me to another example the Lual Dance. We all got into groups and acted like idiots, but the true winners won. So lets create that moment again, every one pair up with your date for the dance and lets get to dancing.

Craig walked over to Ashley.

Craig: Want to dance?

Ashley: I guess we have to I mean we did go together.

Craig: And don't forget we did win.

Ashley: I could never forget that night. But maybe all of those reasons aren't good.

Craig: Come on Ash lets not relive the past lets just deal with the present. So come on dance with me.

Ashley: Fine.

Ashley and Craig made there way out onto the middle of the dance floor. Craig held Ashley tight in his arms.

Craig: You know Ash I never meant to break your heart.

Ashley: Craig let's not get into this now.

Craig: No I want you to know that I never meant to hurt you. I mean I would do anything now to take it all back. I mean I heard this song the other day called Breaking Heart that was just like you and me.

Ashley: That would be because I wrote it.

Craig: Now I really feel like I am back in high school, dancing with you, getting that butterfly feeling, and making a complete idiot out of my self.

Ashley: Your not and idiot, but you aren't in high school any more.

Craig: Trust me I know.

Ashley: So are you married? Dating any one?

Craig: Like you haven't already heard from Paige.

Ashley: Yes I have but I want to hear it from you.

Craig: No, what about you?

Ashley: No still single, had a really great boy friend in high school but he kind of screwed every thing up. Then I had another one in collage but he died in a car crash the night he was going to propose.

Craig: Did you ever find true love after that complete idiot who screwed up things in high school?

Ashley: I thought I did but after being here tonight I know I was just kidding my self.

Ashley slowly moved her head on to Craig's shoulder and he ran his hands up and down her back. Then she slowly tilted her head and Craig brushed his lips past hers. They were about to kiss when the song ended and Paige came back up on stage.

Craig: Does it have to be over?

Ashley: No we could go talk some where else.

Manny walked up.

Manny: Hi Craig.

Ashley: I'll leave you two to talk.

Ashley turned around looking a little hurt.

Craig: Manny I can't talk right now.

Craig went after Ashley.

Craig: Ashley wait!

Ashley turned around.

Ashley: She always find her way in doesn't she?

Craig: Yea but look at the one I wanted to talk to and came after.

Ashley sighed and Craig put his hands on her cheeks.

Craig: You know you look very cute when your upset and angry.

Ashley: Craig are we sure this is the right thing to do?

Craig moved his hands away and dug them into his pockets pulling out a piece of paper and a picture.

Ashley: What's that?

Craig: The only thing that kept me sane with out you.

Craig put the picture into Ashley's hand, it was one taken of them at the tree trimming party back in grade 10.

Ashley: I was so happy, I had no idea you would be breaking my heart a few days later.

Craig moved over to Ashley and pulled her into a hug. They stood there until Paige came out to them.

Paige: Come on guys there starting the video.

Ashley and Craig followed but didn't leave each other's arms.
