From the Node, you can get the references property. And then call getValues to the reference values. From there, just take the first. Something like

public String getFirstReference(Node node) throws RepositoryException {
  Property references = node.getProperty("references");     
  Value[] values = references.getValues();
  return values[0].getString();     
}
