<br/>Jayson was the first one to greet her, and she threw her arms around him, squealing in delight.  She leaned back, putting her ring-laden hands on his arms and looking at his face.  “It’s so good to see you, Jayson!  It has been way too long!”  She gave him another quick hug, then stepped over to Mike, who had come up a few steps behind Jayson.<br/><br/>Before she could grab him, he had her in his arms, swinging her off her feet and spinning her around, hugging her so tightly she could barely breathe.  She felt like she was coming home.  Seeing her best friends took her back to her childhood, when they played together every chance they got.  As the guys went to the cab and began unloading all her stuff, she watched them and took a deep, cleansing breath.  Today was the start of a new life for her.  She hoped it would be a happy one.<br/><br/>As she stepped into the house, she looked around the living room in amazement.  “Guys!  Don’t tell me you cleaned up just for me!”  She took a few steps more.  “This does not look like a bachelor pad.  It looks like a real home.  And the flowers!”  She had expected a messy house with guy stuff all over the place.  Never had she expected something like this.  She was impressed.<br/><br/>When they showed her to her room, she was again surprised.  The walls were freshly painted, fresh white curtains at the window, white cover on the bed, and a small table under the window.  It had good bones, and she could do a lot with it.  "I love it," she said, smiling.  She walked to the bed.  “Is this handmade?”  She turned to look at the two of them.  “Did one of you make this?”<br/>
