Ace walked into the large cheaply decorated room, looking around. Damn he didn't see her. He had hoped he would run into Allison, after ten years he still hadn't forgot how beautiful she was. He walked over to the bar ordering a beer, and carried it over to an empty table facing the door, now he couldn't miss her. Ace was 28, and he didn't look bad he thought, tall 6'5 strong frame. He had deep green eyes with jet black hair. He reached up and ran his hand over his buzz-cut hair. He always kept his hair extremely short, made it easier to get ready in the morning. He looked down at the tuxedo that was required to attend the ten year reunion, straightening the pant leg. Ace looked up and his breath caught in his throat. Dear God, there she was, wearing a gorgeous black strapless gown. He smiled to himself, she had come alone.

Allison sighed as she stepped out of the car; she hated these things, but something told her to go. When she had seen this dress in the window at the store she knew she had to have it. She did some last minute touch-ups, and looked in the mirror. She didn't think she was ugly, but she hated her small frame. She was only 5 feet 4 inches tall, with light brown hair, and bright green eyes. To look at her, you would say there was no way she was 5'4, because her legs seem to go on for days. She caught a glimpse of herself in a mirror on her way in and was glad for once in her life that her hair had a natural curl. She walked into the large cheaply decorated room, and looked around. 'I wish I had found someone to bring,' Allison thought to herself. She walked over to the bar and noticed a gorgeous man, staring at her as she walked. She felt her face grow hot, and a small smile crept across her face. Allison touched her cheek and smiled at the bartender and ordered a beer. She smiled when she felt someone behind her, his hot breath on her shoulder. "Join me?" Ace asked from behind Allison.

Ace smiled a dangerous smile. "You should, I'm Ace, remember me from high school? I sat next to you at graduation."

Allison smiled and looked around thinking. "Oh, now I remember, you were quite the geek back then."

Ace smiled, looking into her eyes; he motioned to an empty table. Allison walked slightly behind Ace as they walked to the table. They sat down and Allison smiled at Ace.

"Oh, I’ve been good I guess, went to law school, got married, had a daughter, got divorced." Ace shrugged. "What can you do?"

Allison smiled as she watched him talk. "Well my life hasn't even been that eventful, I went to nursing school, and I never got married or had any children." Allison shrugged. "What can ya do?"

Allison smiled and looked at Ace's beautiful face. Wow, he has changed! She thought to herself. Allison could remember Ace, he was a geek, and not very attractive; she wondered what happened, because he was like a Greek god now. Ace smiled watching Allison's eyes trail over his body. Allison looked up only to notice Ace watching her, she blushed as their eyes met. Damn, he had caught her checking him out, she chided herself; for
