we arrive to tara's at 9pm and there is already a lot of cars. i see people smoking on the porch and i kinda already regret coming, i don't feel like being around so many people.

"are you okay?" jake asks.

"yeah i think" i say and wipe my sweaty hands in my jeans. "let's go."

we get out of the car and start walking inside. tara has quite a big house but the place is crowded, i can't even take a step without bumping into someone. i don't see any familiar faces tho.

"sit on the couch, i will get us drinks" jake says and i do what he told me. there's only one empty spot on the couch and a couple is currently making out next to me. nice.
5 minutes passed and i can't see jake anywhere. i decide to check my phone.
now jake has been gone for 20 minutes and i post a picture to my instagram story which says "sitting alone in a party kinda goes hard". after i get really bored i decide to get a drink for myself instead of waiting for jake to come back. when i get my drink i go back to my lovely best friend: the couch, but my place is not empty anymore. in fact colby brock is sitting there.

"how's it going man?" i ask him.

"hey johnnie it's nice to see you, bro! wanna go out to talk?" he asks and i nod. we walk towards the porch and he hands me a cigarette. "long time no see"

"yeah i've been kinda busy" i lie. "where is sam?"

"i dont really know, inside somewhere" he laughs. "where is jake?"

"i don't know. he said he's gonna get us drinks like thirty minutes ago. i didn't see him since."

"well how about we get wasted together then?" he asks and i smile. i already drank my whiskey.

an hour passed, me and colby had fun drinking and i am really drunk now. there only half an hour left from 2023 and i miss jake, so i get up to find him.

"i'm gonna find jakey" i say to colby and he gives me a little smile. i look around for five minutes and as i go to the porch i see jake smoking a cigarette. "hiiii jakey" i say giggling.

"hey johnnie, wow you're wasted" he says after blowing the smoke out.

"i am and you left me alone" i say with a sad face.

"yeah, i talked with tara. she want's to get back together" he says and the blood in my vessels froze.

"oh... so you guys are a couple again?" i ask with a fake smile.

"no.. i said no" he says and gives me a little smile. "wanna grab another drink? i'm not drunk enough for this shit" he says and i grab his hand to pull him to the table which is full of alcohol.

"i will make you a drink" i smile to him and start pouring five diferrent types of alcohol in a cup.

"i'm gonna puke if i drink this" he says and i laugh out loud. he drinks it tho.

20 minutes pass and we are on the porch again, smoking.

"i will stop smoking in 2024" he says and i laugh. he said the same thing last year and nothing changed. we talk about little things after that until we hear people counting back from 10 inside. "wanna be my new years kiss?" he asks.

"you wanna kiss again?" i ask him, because i remember to the first time we kissed. he was just as wasted as now.

"no, it's gonna be different this time" he says and looks into my eyes, after that he looks at my mouth. "so, will you?"

"i will" i say, and he is leaning towards me. the people inside yell "ONE" and after that "HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!" but my mind is only can think about jake's lips on mine. he grabs my face and kisses my softly, i can kinda taste the whiskey and the marlboro cigarette on his lips. my heart is racing as he pulls away a little bit "happy new year, johnnie."

i wrote this part before jake's trisha video was uploaded AND HE LITERALLY SAID IN THAT VIDEO THAT JOHNNIE AND HIM KISSED ON NEW YEARS.
