New year

New year, New me. Something almost everyone tells themselves when New Year's rolls around, but for once I hadn't told myself that. Ever since I met Paige something has sparked inside me and I feel like I don't need to change, I'm comfortable where I am. Or maybe I'm just trying to hype myself up as I get ready for the big UCcon New Year party.
I went my freshman year and decided it was only fun if you knew people, so I never went back—until now, I guess. "Okay, you sexy mferr" I giggle as Cameron walks in my room. I gasp looking back at her. "Look at you!" "We are about to be the baddest bitches at this party." She mimics us partying and dancing around. This girl never fails to make me laugh. I finish putting on my jewelry as Cam sits waiting for me.
"Sooo...are you gonna do it?" "Do what?" I try to search my mind for what she could mean but it's blank. "Kiss your girlfriend during the New Year's countdown." I hadn't thought about that at all. "Oh..." "OH?! you're telling me you haven't been constantly thinking about a new years tradition you can finally participate in?" "I don't like how you worded that." "Okay never mind that. You are kissing her." "Whatever you say cupid." "I realize you are joking, but I am cupid. Without me we wouldn't be having this conversation right now." She's not wrong. "true."
The whole car ride to the house party Cameron's words replayed in my head. Will it be awkward? Is she already thinking about doing it? ugh, I hate it when I get in my head.
It takes us about 10 minutes to park due to almost everyone in school being at this party—we should've ubered. As we walk through the door I'm immediately hit with the smell of booze. The house was packed to the brim with a bunch of college kids. "Are Paige and the others here already?" Cam raises her voice so I can hear her. "Yeah!" I yell back. I take her hand and start to weave through the packed rooms. Pushing through to find Paige was giving me flashbacks to the first party we were at. The night we almost kissed. I smile to myself reliving the memory.
That is when I spot her, red cup in hand standing next to Nika talking about something. I rush up to her dragging Cam behind me. When we reach the two I quickly grab the cup from her hand drinking what's left. The alcohol burns my throat. "Hey!" I can tell she is fighting back a smile. "You are an athlete, save your career and leave the drinking to me." She laughs. "Oh hey, there is someone I want you to meet." She turns around disappearing for a moment coming back with someone behind her. "Kayla this is Evelina. Evelina, Kayla." The shorter girl looks from me to Paige with a smirk on her face. "So you are the infamous girl." She reaches out her hand and I shake it. "I'm not really sure how you guys haven't met yet, I guess Kayla is almost always over when you aren't." Paige laughs watching the two of us.
For most of that night, me and Paige moved as one. When someone invited me to play beer pong she was right there with me. Unfortunately for me, I went against one of the men's basketball players who kept throwing the ping pong balls straight into the cup. After my third drink, Paige took over winning for us. As she threw the ball in the last cup we both jumped up in celebration I'm victory began Paige's to flexed causing a laugh. I could tell the alcohol was starting to affect me because the urge to kiss her just got stronger and stronger.
