New Year's Eve.
An acquaintance of one of our classmates threw a party on the occasion of the new year in a country house. The whole school is invited there. Tom and I also decided to go.
– How many people, — I said, being in shock.
– Have you ever been to a party? — Sarah was surprised.
I silently looked at her.
– ah, exactly...
Behind someone hugged me around the waist and left a kiss on my neck. I turned. It was Tom.
– I'll leave you, — Sarah said with a smile.
– Hello, —Tom said with a sly smile.
– what is the mystery in your eyes?😏
– mystery? This is my usual emotion.
I kissed Tom.
– what is it for?
– just so.😏
– can you do it more often "just so"?
– No. This bonus is valid only once.
– and for me?
– and there is an exception for you.😏
We merged in a long kiss.
After that, we started to have fun: dancing, drinking (soda), etc. After two hours, I was exhausted, and Tom and I decided to relax. We sat on the couch and I lay on Tom's lap. I fell asleep a little.
– there are squirrels on the ground and arrows in the sky... — someone's voice was heard.
I jumped up.
– What happened, Maddie? — Tom was worried.
– you heard?
– what?
– there are squirrels on the ground and arrows in the sky. — said the voice again.
– here again...
– except for music and your voice, I hear nothing else.
I looked down the street.
– I'll be back soon.
I left the house and walked towards the road. From under my skirt I took out a folded bow and one arrow.
The bow straightened, and I pulled the arrow on the string.
– I know you're here...
I shot at the tree. Scarlet came out from behind him. She pulled out an arrow and looked at me.
– What else do you need, Scarlet?
– We were friends after all!
She shot me. I caught the arrow and put it in the tool.
– You betrayed me first.
I fired several shots at the bottom of Scarlet's cloak, and with that I hitched her to a tree. I went to her. She fired her bow, but I dodged.
She's out of arrows. I silently pulled out the arrows that held her and went back.
–Are you... just letting me go?
– well, yes.
– why?
– I don't want to stoop to your level, Scarlet. I'm not a killer...
I moved away a little, and then looked at Scarlet.
– Friendship is more valuable than money. Too bad you can't understand it.
I put all my arsenal back and went into the house. Only a few minutes left before the new year.
– Maddy! Maddy!
– I'm here, Tom.
He ran up to me.
– Why are you so scared? Where have you been?
– so ... I saw old friends.
– everything is fine?
– Yes. Do not worry.
– and so, people, we all come here! — began the owner of the party, collecting people on the street. — There's only a minute left until New Year's Eve! We start the countdown.
Everyone started counting in unison.
– three! Two! One! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
– Happy New Year, Maddy.
– Happy New Year, Tom. May it be as wonderful as the old year.
We kissed and started watching the fireworks.
