    Summary

    “i guess what i would say about rina is, i think the reason people go to their high school reunions, even 50 years later, is because you never really graduate from high school.” —Tim Federle

    Ten years after the East High gang graduated, Miss Jenn decides to host a high school reunion for her favorite theater club class.

    When two people with a long history finally see each other again, will old feelings resurface? “You never really graduate from high school.”

    Or will they keep running away and leave everything left unsaid? “I’m safer when I’m on the run.”

    The story of Ricky and Gina during High School and how they finally rekindled years after, because where there was fire ashes remain.

    “i do think there’s a lot between those two characters that is very much still on the table, even if they’re not quite ready to see what that actually means.” —Tim Federle

    Summary

    “Can I take a selfie?” She asks, Gina nodding and smiling for the camera– an instinct now as she leans in with a practiced smile. She’s learned now, in a way she hadn’t in that first year, of what this kind of attention is like.

    Gina knows, from having moved from place to place for as long as she could remember, that when it came to making memories– it was all fleeting, forgettable, a slip through the fingers.

    Of all the things she’s learned in her life— that’s something she'll never forget.

    Summary

    ricky makes a face mid crab cake, his nose wrinkling with a shake of his head as he mumbles, “he’s an idiot by the way." he swallows, "for ever thinking he could replace you. he’s obviously stupid.”

    gina gracefully ignores that he was mid mouthful when he said it. ricky appreciates it.

    “he’s not an idiot. he’s one of the best pilots in the country.” she says with a sigh and ricky scoffs.

    “okay, i think that's a little subjective--” ricky tries. gina raises a brow.

    “no, i’m serious. he won an award for it and everything. i was there. so was michelle obama.” she says bluntly. ricky pauses at that, rubbing his tongue over his teeth before he’s shrugging.

    “okay, so he’s a successful idiot.” his lips quirk into that roguish smile of his as he spans his arms wide, a brow raising as he adds, “my point still stands. a moron to let you go.”

    ♡ ♡ ♡

    after their individual breakups and years of on and off friendship, ricky and gina decide to team up and take on wedding season together by making a pact to be each other’s plus one to every wedding of the year. however, what they didn’t plan for was the feelings that arise along the way.

    ♡ based off the 2019 romcom by the same name
