"Yeah Brandon was his name, dude." Tyler said handing Josh his notebook back. Josh gulped, hoping still it wasn't THAT Brandon from high school, but regardless of how he felt he knew he had an interview to conduct. Tyler waved good by to his boss as Josh walked toward the tiny doorway which lead to the gigantic interviewing room. Opening the door Josh covered his eyes as the bight lights blinded him momentarily as he walked forward to a miniature microphone.
Josh's vision cleared as he saw who the man was, and it was in fact the Brandon he was hoping it wasn't. Josh sighed heavily as he looked at his old high school bully. He was dressed formally, with a button down white tee shirt tightly wrapped around his muscular frame. Josh could tell he still worked out a lot like in high school as he could see his stomach looked like it was slimmed out and even could make out the huge man's abs poking through the almost transparent shirt.

"High school, yeah." Brandon interrupted. "I remember those days, we were in gym class with each other like every year!"
Josh cringed at the thought. Brandon used to make his life hell in gym. He distinctly remembers always being knocked over or tackled and always getting the excuse that "It's all in good fun, shorty!" Before being carted off the the nurses office on more than one occasion. Josh fumed for a second before trying to regain his composure.
