Palm Beach Royals: Class Reunion (Shelved)

Her anxiety barely under control, Jasper had entered the party some-what late.

While it looked like most of her classmates were here, she couldn’t help but notice that there were still some faces missing. Jasper welcomed that fact, sighing with relief as she continued to scan the rooftop. If others were still missing, maybe she wouldn’t stand out as bad.

It didn’t take long for Jasper - or anyone for that matter - to realize that the bar was the place with the most going on at the moment. While every face in here looked familiar or reminded her of one person or another, Jasper honed in on one of the darker haired figures at the bar. Something about the way the other woman presented herself struck Jasper with an overwhelming familiarity; If only she could see her face.

As she watched, the woman leaned forward to order from the bartender. It only took a split second for Jasper to recognize one of her closest friends - Bruna. After all, who else was going to rock a black dress on the same level as herself?

Walking towards the bar, Jasper stopped in her tracks - right there in front of her were Spike and Nate.

Thankfully she had spotted them before either of them had noticed her. They were both too caught up in whatever conversation they were having, and she was standing a few feet away from them. Silently thanking the Universe for allowing everything to align perfectly to avoid whatever trainwreck that was about to be, Jasper continued on her journey to Bruna.

Jasper had spent the last ten years protecting Nate from herself, and she wasn’t about to ruin that tonight. If he wanted any sort of closure, he would have reached out already, right? If he wanted to talk to her tonight, he would find her. Jasper wasn’t about to ruin any sort of happiness that Nate had made for himself with her presence.

Now standing beside Bruna at the bar, Jasper quickly tapped her friend on the shoulder and smiled brightly.

”Bruna, my love! How are you?”

The trip to Florida had been long and tiring for Jasper.

While she loved her brother and soon-to-be sister in law, Jasper spent most of her time on the trip begging and praying to whatever gods were out there that her Ty would just shut the fuck up.

While her future niece or nephew was sure to be the pride and joy of the family, Ty was being a little extra when it came to making sure that Junie was well taken care of. Not to say that there was anything wrong with making sure that one’s significant other was well taken care of - but Jasper could see that Junie was starting to get a little annoyed as well.

Nonetheless, Jasper didn’t say a word to either of them about the predicament. Ty and Junie’s relationship was something that Jasper had come to respect more than most things in this world. Besides, she was sure that if Junie felt that Ty was doing something wrong - she would let him know herself.

Ty dropped Junie off at her family's home after their arrival in the Sunshine state, leaving Jasper to take an Uber from the airport to H2O Suites.

The drive was pleasant enough, and the driver was more than welcome to give Jasper recommendations to all of the coolest places in town. Mentally taking a note with the names that sounded the most interesting, Jasper tipped her driver and exited the vehicle, now at her destination.

All checked in and ready to go, Jasper finally took the time to take in her surroundings.

The room was nice and simple in it’s own way. The overall aesthetic was pleasing, but not overbearing, and the warm summer air added just the right touch. Leaving her bags at the door, Jasper flopped down onto the bed and laid there on her back.

She didn’t know how to feel about being back home. Of course she was excited, but she would never admit it. While Jasper had healed, she still hadn’t apologized or fully felt the retributions of karma for what she had done to people in her high-school years. Sure, she had taken Frankie under her wing and always made sure that there was a table reserved for him at any of her restaurants. She had done the same for Max, Spike, Bruna, Marg, Kristen and Nate - even if he didn’t know it.

While she was grateful that she had kept in contact with her fair share of classmates over the years, Jasper couldn’t shake one simple fact; People either loved or hated her, just like she either loved or hated them. There were no grey lines in Jasper Delamar's life, and she was soon about to find out just how much of a villain she truly was or wasn’t.

Taking a shower didn’t help calm these thoughts, no matter how long Jasper stood there under the warm water.

She wasn’t exactly starting the weekend out on the right foot.

The only way she could convince Margeaux to come to the reunion was to lie to her about Roman not being there. Of course Roman RSVP’d to the reunion, and it would be crazy for anyone to think that he wouldn’t. Nonetheless, Marg held out hope and Jasper had lied - all while persuading the other half of the Fearsome Four to do so.

Max had done the best that he could to calm Jasper's nerves about Nate a few nights before, but even the world's greatest cheerleader could only do so much - especially after confirming for Jasper that Nate was going to be at the reunion.

The golden retriever boy was someone that Jasper had done her best to erase from memory, but she had failed time and time again. Her mother hadn’t taught her much, but one thing that Jasper did learn from Marie was that you couldn’t help how people made you feel; and even to this day, the mention of Nathaniel Blake’s name put butterflies in the pit of Jasper's stomach. Rather they were good or bad, she didn’t know.

A few days with her girls was what really had brought Jasper to the reunion. She just hoped that their pasts didn’t catch up with them.

Once her hair had dried, makeup was applied, and her outfit for the evening was selected, Jasper took a deep breath before turning the doorknob to the outside world.

No amount of excitement that Rowan had for the reunion could take away from his anxiety about the flight there.

With every slight jerk of the plane, or gust of wind, Rowan felt his hands tighten on the arm rests of the seat. Since this was his first flight, Rowan understood why he was feeling anxious - but that didn’t stop him from getting a little angry at himself as well.

It’s just a tiny little flight. I’m fine, he thought, taking a deep breath as he tried to figure out how to work the on-flight TV so he could watch a movie. A kid a few rows behind was starting to scream at the top of their lungs, and Rowan was not about to listen to that for the last two hours of his trip.

After the plane hand landed, Rowan did the best that he could to navigate the airport and gather his luggage. Figuring out the Uber app relatively easily, Rowan took a seat on one of the benches in the loading area while waiting for his ride to arrive. The bright sun and the stickiness of the humidity was an unwelcome change from the cold rain of Washington. He missed his home already.

On his ride to the hotel, Rowan exchanged a few words with his driver. The young man didn’t seem to be the chatty type, and that was something that Rowan could appreciate. Another thing that he happened to notice was the way that the driver's eyes had widened when Rowan had told him his destination.

“Fancy place, man. Don’t really look like you’d be traveling there. Er… no offense.”

“None taken,” Rowan replied, chuckling quietly from the back seat. “I get that a lot. I’m actually in town for a high-school reunion sort of thing.”

It was the younger man's turn to laugh this time.

“Ah dude… I am not looking forward to my high-school reunion at all.”

Arriving at the hotel, Rowan tipped the driver and thanked him for his time. Grabbing his luggage and entering the building, Rowan took a deep breath. He had already felt out of place a few times since landing in the big city - but the hotel took the cake. Everything was neat, polished, and organized. Rowan's work boots, jeans, and favorite comfy tattered t-shirt absolutely did not belong here. Thankfully the young woman at the desk was more than welcoming and was happy to see that Rowan was checked into his room properly.

Rowan had managed to score one of the rooms with a private balcony. He was excited with this outcome. While the plunge pool would have been nice as well, there was already a pool upstairs if he needed to go swimming. With the balcony he could lean against the railing and look out to the ocean - just as he was doing now.

It had been years since Rowan had seen the east coast, but the salty air was familiar and welcoming. After checking his phone for the time, Rowan re-entered the bedroom, leaving his boots outside. He was more than ready to wash off the dirt and grime that was American Airlines, and had arrived early enough to do so.

While in the shower, Rowan did his best to keep his mind from wandering, and to keep his nerves in check. His plan didn’t work.

Feeling the knot in his stomach growing every second, he took a deep breath and let the warm water run over him and relax his aching muscles.

Rowan had never been super popular in high school, and to tell the truth - he really didn’t know why he was currently standing in a Florida hotel, buttoning up his shirt. The only person that he could think of that would actually want to see him was Marg. Would she even be speaking to him, or would they still be playing it as cool and nonchalant as ever? Was he about to spend his whole weekend watching her fall prey to Roman once again?

Maybe there was Frankie, but the two of them had never been close, and it wasn’t like Rowan had kept in contact with anyone over the years. He tried to look at it on the bright side - perhaps he would walk away from the weekend with a few new-old friends.

Once dressed, Rowan checked the time once again before making his way to the final destination of the evening.

He walked up the stairs slowly, focusing on his breathing as he went. Hands shaking ever so slightly, he stepped outdoors and braced himself for whatever may come next.

Post a random fact about yourself.

I’ve recently been hired on at a Country Club to be a server at one of their restaurants. I’m going to be making $15.50 per hour, and every check has auto-gratuity added. I also already have a guaranteed bar position, which I have been begging my current job for for the last six months.

Post a random fact about yourself.

I'm currently re-watching Criminal Minds.

Post a random fact about yourself.

Due to working at the resort, I haven’t been able to dye my hair for nearly a year and a half. My hair is almost back to being completely natural. I need to chop off the dead ends, because you can still see the faintest hint of blue towards the bottom.

I’ll probably stick it out at my current job for one more summer. The paychecks are too good not to. After I save up a bit, I’m quitting and finding a different job because someone paying me minimum wage shouldn’t be able to tell me what I can and cannot do with my body.

Personality

Jasper is the sort of girl that knows what she wants, and she won’t stop until she gets it - rather it be a person, or an item. A very possessive girl, she has a problem with taking no for an answer. Jasper is also a very blunt person, always saying things the way that she sees them. She’s known to be a major bitch, and even cold-hearted at times. More often than not, it seems that she is only looking out for her own well being - though that is not entirely the truth, as she does care for her brother and maybe like one other person.

Most of the time, Jasper is rude and sarcastic. An opinionated woman, she is never one to hold back what she's thinking. If it pops into her brain - she's saying it. While she tends to have more enemies than friends, there are a few people that she holds close to her heart and that she would do just about anything for. Flirtatious as can be, Jasper sees people as play things. `Seduce and destroy` is her motto. Once she's gotten what she needs, or actually holds another person's interest, she tends to become uninterested. This has led to many one night stands, tons of broken hearts, and quite a few enemies. While she enjoys the chase, Jasper has begin to wonder if perhaps she also has some trouble with commitment.

Backstory

Jasper's past is something that she always tries her hardest not to talk about.

Jasper and her twin brother Tiberius were born into an already failing marriage. Two young people married before they ever really had the chance to know one another, it didn't take long for Marie and Nicholas to realize that their marriage was failing. Despite her husbands cold demeanor, Marie did love him, and in one last, desperate attempt to get her husband to stay - they decided to have a baby. Nicholas wanted one child - One son. Jasper was the surprise - but obviously not a happy one.

In their haste to try and save their marriage, Jaspers parents failed to realize just how much responsibility having children was. Bounced around from Nanny to Nanny during their early childhood, Marie and Nicholas were always focusing on their careers more than their family. When a car crash caused Marie to break her left leg, the woman gave up her modeling career, convinced that it was the end of the world. By the time that her leg was healed, Marie had began to drink heavily and became addicted to the pain pills that the doctor had prescribed her. Being stuck at home with her children made her begin to hate them. One last failed attempt to find a caregiver for his children, Nicholas finally found a nanny named Rosalinda, who took great care of the kids. While she wasn't a replacement for Jaspers parents, she did help the kids in many ways.

Rosalinda is who Jasper has to thank for her ability to play the violin and guitar. She also owes the woman for sheltering her and her brother from their parents arguments.

Obsessed with her own body image, when Jasper hit the age of thirteen, her mother began to hound her over her weight. Beginning to grow into her body shape more now with puberty, Jasper did need new clothes every now and then - but she was by no means overweight. Sadly, Marie didn't look at it the same way. She wanted her daughter to follow in her modeling footsteps, and how was she supposed to do that by being anything other than thin?

From the age of thirteen until she was sixteen, Jasper was constantly told that she was fat, overweight, and even ugly. Her mother constantly pointed out the smallest details: how she talked, walked, ate, styled her hair - Marie was sure to use every aspect of her daughters existence against her.

Jasper knew that she would never be a model like her mother, and that didn't bother her. What did bother her, however, was the fact that her mother would do things to make Jasper feel fat.

Jasper can recall multiple occasions where her mother would buy clothes that were too small for her and expect her to be able to fit them. When she couldn't, Jasper was more or less forced to exercise at home, and eat small portions of so-called healthy foods. Ty did his best to make his sister feel more valid in her own skin, but he could only do so much. While their mother was mentally and verbally abusive, their father was physically. Ty took the brunt of most of their fathers rages for her.

By the age of fourteen, Jasper had begun to develop an eating disorder. She would go days without eating only to gorge herself and ultimately feel guilty and make herself sick. When Marie found out, she was more than sure to let her daughter know that she thought she was a freak.

"If you didn't eat all the time, and actually followed the exercise, it wouldn't be so hard for you to be thin," she would say.

Her mother - to everyone's surprise - actually put her daughter into therapy. While Marie’s reasoning behind this was to save the family image, she wasn’t shy when it came to accepting the praise for ‘doing the right thing.’ Jasper stood by, watching Marie become mother of the year for doing the most basic thing - and this only upset her more.

While it took three years of therapy and her mothers eventual death to overcome her eating disorder, Jasper was more than grateful for her brother and Rosalinda being there for her in every way that they could be.

School was hell in it’s own way for Jasper. Kings Academy was an escape in it’s own way, but held different horrors. Jasper's greatest silver lining during her early years was her high school boyfriend - Nathaniel Blake.

Nate was - and still is - an amazing man. They were one of the star couples of Kings Academy in their own way. Setting an example for others with the way they loved each other, Nate and Jaspers relationship would end shortly after senior year.

Nate had spent weeks saving up and planning to propose to Jasper on prom night - and he did exactly that in perfect Nate fashion. A flash mob, music, the one knee - Nate truly had gone the extra mile for her. Unfortunately, Jasper didn’t appreciate it in the way that Nate thought she would.

While watching her boyfriend perform anything was always an excitement, Jasper had always hated huge displays of affection. Nate had helped her with that over the years, but she felt as if he had went to far that night. Dragging the young man off of the dance floor, the two of them quickly had a quiet discussion in the corner while the rest of Prom carried on around them.

Jasper didn’t want to see their relationship end, but she wasn’t ready for marriage. She wanted a career, and to explore the world. While Palm Beach was nice, she knew there was more to see in the world, and she dreamed to see as much of it as possible. Explaining all of this to Nate, the young couple agreed to stay together and perhaps get married one day when they were both ready.

Graduation happened, and so did college. They tried the long distance thing for a few weeks, but ultimately Nate and Jasper had been growing apart ever since the proposal. While they still loved each other, there was a sense of unease in the relationship now that neither of them could shake. Deciding to end things, the two of them kept in touch here and there over the years, and even crossed paths here and there when Jasper would come back home to visit. Each time she has seen his face, it’s just reminded her of the past - and the past is something that Jasper Delamar plans to forget until the very end.

Going to Meadow University with her brother Tiberius, Jasper gradguated college with her Culinary degree. From there, she moved to New York, where she has lived ever since.

Jasper has spent the years since high school traveling the world just as she always intended, indulging in all of the finer things life has to offer - music, wine, food, art…

In a lot of ways, Jasper is happier now. She now owns and operates her own five star resturaunt in New York, and is getting ready to open another in LA. Her show on Food Network, ‘City Life Cuisine’ is set to air next summer.

Despite her accomplishments, Jasper still cannot deny that she is haunted by her past. While she is excited for the reunion, Jasper is not excited for the past to come flooding back.

-Her only immediate living family is her brother Tiberius, her nieces, and her nephew.
-Some of her biggest pet peeves are people talking while eating, smacking, and not chewing with their mouth closed.

-Has a soft spot for dogs.
-Likes summer the most.
-Most of her personal playlist is classic rock, with some metal mixed in. Jasper doesn't mind listening to the popular stations on the radio, but finds most 'popular' songs to not be enjoyable. You can also find various artists like Fleetwood Mac and Elton John on the list.
-Plays the violin and guitar.
-Always has a pack of strawberry flavored gum in her possession.
- Love Me Dead by Ludo tickles my earholes.
