Chapter 120: Nostalgia


    In no time the two cars were brought to the entrance and the four people were soon on their way to the estate outside the city. In James'' car, Jason was in the driver''s seat and James was seatedfortably in the passenger''s seat with the freshly opened bottle of wine settled between his legs.


    In the other car Jen was also gettingfortable as Lucas was driving and soon enough they were on the highway.


    "Do you think it was a good idea to bring my friends along?"Jen asked Lucas whose gaze was focussed on the road.


    "I really don''t see what could possibly go wrong" Lucas answered jokingly.


    "Did you have to say it like that?"Jen asked feeling slightly troubled.


    "I didn''t have to, but you know your friends well" Lucas responded.


    Before Jen could say anything she felt her phone vibrate in her purse. She took out her phone and picked it up when she saw that Nancy was calling.


    "Jen!" Laura''s voice was heard through the phone speakers.


    "Have you guys arrived yet?"Jen asked after sheposed herself.


    "Not yet. We''ve been on the road for almost 90 minutes" Laurained.


    "Then we''ll probably arrive at the same time"Jen said as she switched the phone from one ear to the other one.


    "Laura took forever" Nancyined in the background making Jenugh.


    "Mmh, I''ll see you guys in a bit"Jen responded.


    "Okay, are there going to be other guys?"Laura asked.


    "You''ll see, you don''t have to be anxious about anything"Jen said before saying her goodbyes and hanging up the phone.


    "Have they arrived yet?"Lucas asked once Jen cut the call.


    "Not yet. It seems that Laura took too long making themte" Jen said as she leaned backfortably into her seat.


    "Oh, don''t worry, we''ll arrive soon" Lucasforted.


    The two cars speedily drove out the city and they finally arrived at the estate. Jen had never seen anything like it. Firstly because it was private owned property and secondly from the sheer amount of houses that were built there.


    Lucas briefly stopped at the gates of the estates and waited for the gates to open. When he checked the rear view mirror, he saw that there were three cars behind his including his BMW that he told Dave to use when he brought the girls to the estate.


    After the gates opened, he drove inside pointing out the different houses that belonged to the people that Jen was familiar before stopping at therge mansion that was situated at the centre of the whole estate.


    Since the house owners knew each other, they normally gathered at the mansion that was at the centre of the area for parties. Jen looked at her surrounding in fascination and managed to restrain herself. She knew that the Lewis family was rich but wasn''t this slightly overboard?


    As Lucas parked his car in front of the mansion, he got out of the car and watched as the three other cars parked next to each other.


    The first person to make an appearance was Laura who was wearing jean short shorts and a crop top with high heeled boots and a pair of shades her long red hair was being blown away from her face by the breeze making her look even more alluring.


    She ran towards Jen who was waiting for Lucas who was taking out her heavy suitcase from the car. When Lucas came to stand next to Jen, Laura enthusiastically hugged him making him put the suitcase down so he could retain his bnce.


    Just when he thought that would be it, he found himself being hugged by the other three girls, something that made him feel very flustered and he was even more surprised when Rachel gave him a brief hug. He felt like he had aplished something. As the girls surrounded Lucas chatting enthusiastically with Jen a voice was heard.


    "Jen, are these your friends" Jason asked as he came to stand next to Jen .


    "Mmh, that is Rachel, Leanna, Nancy and Laura" Jen introduced from the calmest person to the wildest one. Laura who was chattering non-stop had grown silent when she spotted Jason.


    "Is this Daniel Zate?" Rachel asked when she realised that the girls had gotten quiet.


    "Mmh, but since you are Jen''s friends you can call me Jason" Jason offered generously with a bright smile.


    Laura felt her knees go weak when she saw Jason smile, she had been a fan of his group even before Jen and Rachel.


    Jen felt her arm being grabbed tightly an action that made her turn to check who was grabbing her so tightly. She was met with Laura''s watery eyes, something that made her at a loss of words.


    "Lucas! Happy birthday kid" Liam and Levi chorussed as they too got out of their car and hugged Lucas together who was obliviously happily receiving the greetings from his brothers old group mates.


    Liam, Levi and Daniel were in the same boy group and were very familiar with Lucas as they used to practice their choreography with hi when Jason used to bring him over so that he did not look to skinny andnky throughout high school.


    Laura had been their fan since their first performance that was broadcasted on tv years back and was very devastated when she heard of their separation. Seeing the three guys standing together like the old times brough about feeling of nostalgia making Laura feel very emotional.


    Jen who was focussed on Laura saw how her tears fell from her eyes. Jen''s jaw dropped from incredulity.


    "How can you cry?" Jen asked but did not receive a proper response from Laura.


    "Girl, are you okay?"Jen asked again feeling slightly worried.


    "Are you sure it''s not my birthday today? I think I can die in peace now" Laura said as another tear drop slid from her eyes down her cheeks.
