Angelica's POV |

New years eve was here faster than we thought it would ever come. I arranged for everyone to come over to my house and they all agreed. During the time of being off for a week, I gathered everyone their late presents and mailed it to them for a bit of surprise.

When everyone arrived the party began. Music played through my living room and the events and performances played on my television for everyone to see/hear.

Chloe was drinking from her cup, meanwhile, Carma and Andrei were eating chips. Vinnie kept to himself watching TV along with me.

"So," Carma smirked, placing her hair behind her ears.

"Did you eat all of my chips?" I interrupted her, knowing what she was about to say.

"I did, but 7-eleven's open." She reached into her pocket to grab some money.

"Anyone else wants anything." I looked at the others whose attention was on the television watching the new year's performance.

They shook their heads, but my eyes landed on vinnie. He was already glancing at me with something on his mind.

"Vinnie?" I startled him from his daydream.

"Uh-hmn?" His eyes fluttered and focused.

"Do you need anything from the store?"

"I'll actually come with." He stood up, stretching his long legs and arms.

"Be back before 11:30. It's 10:46." Chloe playfully ordered, winking at me.

While I drove to the nearest 7-Eleven, the radio played soft R&B music as I waited at the street light to turn green.

My finger tapped on the steering wheel, matching the beat from the song. Then again, I glance at vinnie who was already looking at me.

"What?" I leaned back and smiled.

His jaw clenched before he smiled and leaned back too.

"Nothing," he smiled harder.

"Not you daydreaming about me, Mr.hacker" I giggled, proceeding to drive when the light turned green.

"What if I ask you another date, Angelica Armani?" His hand guided itself farther into my space and onto my lap.

"Ano...another?" My eyes lit up and a smile curved the corner of my mouth

"Yea," he softly chuckled.

"Of course. What day and time? Ouuu where?" I questioned until we pulled up at the 7-eleven.

"Next week Friday, 7 pm and meet me at my house. I'm not spoiling the rest." He winked, clicking his seatbelt off.

The both of us grabbed some extra snacks then made our way back to the house. My clock read 11:24, with only 7 minutes left.

We arrived at the house perfectly 1 minute early and passes the snacks out. The date that was scheduled ran through my mind.

What could I wear? Where and what could he possibly be doing?

We played UNO, and a bit of cards until the last 5 minutes were on the ball. Then we yelled at the Tv, waiting for the last 10 seconds.

"HAPPY NEW YEARS" we all shouted, popping our confetti poppers. Everyone hugged sharing joy and love for this year coming. Chloe hugged each of us and called her family along with Carma and Andrei.

Vinnie and I caught eye contact between the sparkles and confetti blazing in the air. It was like a slow-motion romantic scene. The sound was blurred around us and the camera only focused on us.

I reached my arms out for a hug, but he pulled me in for a kiss. Sending warming signals to my heart, Vinnie kissed me in front of everyone.

Classy, my arms rested his neck, pulling him in more with his hands rested on my waists. We both smiled, feeling all eyes on us but not caring.

And when the kiss stopped, our eyes still matched, not returning to anyone until I heard Chloe gasp,

"I FUCKING KNEW IT!"

>>>

That new year was amazing and for the last hour, before everyone left, I sat on Vinnie's lap with both of us of getting interrogated by Chloe. We laughed, drank and all had fun. I knew this year was going to be a great one.

As everyone started leaving, Vinnie was the last one out the door. The others walking down the hall, leaning on my door frame, looking down at me with a smirk on his face.

"Night Mr.Hacker." I smiled.

"Goodnight, Ms.Brown" he leaned forward and placed a gentle kiss on my cheek. The scent of tropical coconut followed him and made a memory in my mind.

What's up with you Vinnie? You're changing, but it's handsome.
