Aidan Costello had moved back to his midwestern hometown six months ago. He had been living in New York for the last five years working as a portfolio manager for some fancy ass hedge fund. He had graduated with honors from Vanderbilt with a degree in Economics and got the job offer three months after graduation when one of his classmates had pegged him to be perfect for the job. His classmate had been right. Aidan helped establish the fund and made some pretty good money in the process, but they weren't going to move him up any farther on the ladder, and it was only a matter of time before his engagement to a rich socialite deteriorated. After that, Aidan figured there was nothing keeping him in New York, no fiancee, no real friends, and no room for advancement. Worst of all, he became completely and utterly homesick, something he hadn't felt since he was a kid. He just needed a hug from his mother and for his dad to buy him a beer.
Since the move back, Aidan had been in somewhat of a daze. He had completely cut off contact from his old life in New York and wanted to start fresh, but it was hard for him to do that by going back home again. It was bittersweet mixture of the future and nostalgia. Aidan caught up with old friends, family, and made new contacts while he got his private wealth management firm off of the ground. He tried going on dates, getting over his ex, but his problem with women only intensified being back home. He had had a slew of relationships, a few very serious, since he left home the first time, but none of the women he was with could compare to his unrequited love, a forbidden love, his 12th grade history teacher.
It all seemed very innocent. She was the new pretty young teacher. She was so optimistic, and was one of the first teachers Aidan ever had where he didn't consider the teacher just some old person who couldn't relate to him. She was different. So why wouldn't a good-looking, athletic, and of course endlessly arrogant like all teenagers, 18 year old have a relationship with his teacher who couldn't have been more than 7 or 8 years older than him at the most. It never happened. Aidan always thought they stole glances of each other when they thought no one was looking. There was the awkward time their hands touched, or the time they were the only two people in the school one afternoon and Aidan swore she looked at him and smiled far too long for her not to be thinking something.
Again, it never happened. She became more a fantasy and less a real person in Aidan's perception. She was the ideal, and it must have worked its way into his subconscious because at that point on, he compared every woman to his ideal. Aidan later found out she had married, of course, and some piece of a dream died that day.
So, Aidan debated going to his ten year reunion. He wasn't even sure if she even worked at the high school anymore, and worse, what if she was still married and had a family, but he needed some sort of closure, even if it was a simple admission that he had a crush on her, he needed that much.
He broke out a nice suit, met up with some old buddies and drove to the hotel where the reunion was being held. He valeted the car, checked into his room and walked into the bar hoping to see the one who got away.
