All right, I'm back! Now I have something special for y'all. We're now in the adult years and the next six chapters will be what the ladies have been doing since graduating college. I decided to mix them up a little.

Date: February 2, 2006

Author's note: The first lady in this chapter will be none other than Amy.

Seven years later...February 2, 2006

"Honey, mail call!" Hunter yelled as he walked in the house.

Amy bounced down the stairs and leaped in his arms, kissing him madly. Then he handed her the stacks of mail. While she shifted through them, she looked at him with a smile and blushed with fever. How did she end up with a wonderful guy like him?

So much has happen in the last seven years. Ever since her fiancé proposed to her in Hawaii, she didn't wanna go one day being without him in her life.

In fact, she was pleasantly surprised when she learned Hunter went to a different college just 15 minutes from the college she was attending. Every weekend, he would go and visit her, which would lead to some mind-blowing lovemaking.

During the one weekend Hunter visited, the two laid in the bed and discussed their upcoming wedding. Amy once said she had always wanted to get married on Valentine's day. Hunter said he would do just about anything for her so they agreed on an Valentine's day wedding.

"Baby, how many people are we inviting besides our family members?" Hunter asked while he walking towards the kitchen.

"I'm inviting some of my friends from work and some of my friends from high school. What about you?" Amy replied.

"Same here. It's not gonna be a big wedding," he called from the kitchen.

Amy plopped down on the soft and continued shifting through her mail until she came across a sealed envelope with Trish's name on it. Squealing with excitement, she ripped it open and began reading the long letter.

Dear Ames,

It's been seven years, hasn't it? I can't believe we've been separated for so long after high school. Anyway, I missed you so much. Not one day has gone by that I don't think about you. Ever since we went our separate ways, I couldn't stop crying because I was so far away from my best friends.

Well, let me catch you up on what's been going on with our gang. I'll start with me. Andrew and I got married and we have two beautiful children, Audrey and Michael. I run my own publishing company and Andrew's a celebrity chef. We're living in New York City now. Look for his cooking show to be on the air within a few weeks.

I learned Lisa married Dave and they're living in Phoenix. They're expecting their first child within the next month. They co-own a gym down there.

Can you believe Gail's pregnant with Randy's baby? She told me when we talked on the phone a few months ago. She should be due by the time you receive this letter. Oh, yeah, Randy's a model now. With his good looks and cocky smile, he made the right career move.

Stacy and Torrie can't seem to stay away from each other. Not only did they get married at the same time, they even got pregnant at the same time. Stacy had a little boy and Torrie had a little girl. They're both staying at home and taking care of their children.

I hope things are okay with you and Hunter. I heard you two are planning to wed on Valentine's day. That's so romantic. I'm so happy for you. I knew you find a guy like him.

Anyway, I'll be flying down there within the next couple of days. I'm having one of my neighbors watch the kids because Andrew will be heading up north for a pastry competition. I can't wait to see you again!

Love always,

Trish.

P.S. I forgot to tell you that I'm expecting my third child in three more months (LOL)!

Amy smiled while she wiped her tears away from her face. She couldn't believe one of her best friends was coming down to see her. She hopped off the couch and danced around with the letter in her hand, not noticing Hunter coming in the room and looking at her with a weird expression on his face.

"What's going on with you?" he asked.

"Trish's coming to our wedding!" she exclaimed as she jumped in his arms.

"That's great! I'm sure you two will catch up when you two get together again," he said before he leaned over and kissed her passionately.

You mean all five of my friends. I hope the others decide to come down and see me again, Amy thought.

Later that night, Amy was lying in bed, reflecting on her life with her best friends. So much they had shared, so much they had dreamed, so much they had experienced.

Without waking Hunter up, she climbed out of bed and left the room, quietly tiptoeing downstairs.

She went to the nearest drawer and pulled out her high school yearbook. She sat down at the dining room table and began glancing through.

Amy couldn't help but laugh at her own photo. How horrible did she look on that day? Her hair was out of place, her make-up was all wrong and her clothes looked like they haven't been clean in ages.

Oh, God. What was I thinking that day? I had to rush just so I could get to school on time! Why they had to put this picture in the yearbook? I looked terrible! Amy thought with a laugh.

She kept going and came across a picture of Trish, looking beautiful with her long blond hair flowed freely around her shoulders. God, she looked so clean that day!

The other girls looked better than her that day. Amy just laughed.

"Couldn't sleep, huh?" Hunter asked as he walked towards her.

Ames just shrugged. "I guess I'm too excited to sleep. I'm just looking over my yearbook."

"I'm so glad you kept yours. I can't seem to find mine," he said as he sat down next to her.

"You never seem to keep up with anything nowadays. That's the one habit we need to work on," Amy reminded him with a laugh.

Hunter kissed her forehead. "Woman, come back to bed. I'm so tired."

"You go on ahead. I'll be there in a minute."

He got up and headed for the stairs. Amy looked at her yearbook one more time before she put it back in her drawer and headed upstairs for some much needed sleep.

Next chapter, we'll find out what Gail has been doing!
