"ALI!" Parker yelled, waking me up. "ITS NEW YEARS EVE!"

"Oh, and I have to spend it with you? Gross." I playfully rolled my eyes.

"Hey!" Parker threw a pillow and hit me in the face. "You're mean."

I flipped my hair. "It's what I'm known for."

Parker pouted for a second but then his mood totally changed. "What do you want to do today?" He asked.

I shrugged. "I thought you were the party planner."

He stroked his imaginary beard. "Let's see, well, we could go, uh, I don't know."

"I have an idea. Give me twenty minutes to get ready." I said and grabbed an outfit I had picked out and went into the bathroom.

------

"Hey guys, I'm here with Ali today and I have no clue what we're doing!" Parker said into his camera. "She told me to vlog this but I don't know what to talk about."

"It's called a surprise, Parker." I rolled my eyes.

"Where did you even get this idea?" He asked.

"Someone left me alone for a while so I had to think of something to do. Then I found out I was going on a scavenger hunt. And this is how we got here. Come on, you're walking to slow." I smiled.

"I'm going I'm going." He laughed. Parker moved the camera around a bit so it was now pointing at me. "What has been your favorite part of this trip so far, Agent Alio?" He asked.

I thought for a second. "Beating your butt in a snowball fight."

"You just had to bring that up, didn't you?" He groaned. "I want a rematch."

"Maybe tomorrow, Parkster. Because we're just getting to where we need to be." I said and we crossed the street, going into an outdoor skating rink.

"Ice skating?" He asked.

"I've been in some of the boring indoor ones, but there is actually snow and it's outside. So, I say lets do it." I smiled at him.

He nodded and out his camera away so we could get in. I told the person who was renting out skates my size and Parker did the same, except he paid for mine. Which resulted in me hitting Parker's arm and scolding him.

Parker just laughed and we went to put our skates on. And soon enough, we were out on the ice, and Parker had his camera back out.

"Parker, are you just trying to film how horrible I am at this?" I rolled my eyes. "I haven't been ice skating in years."

"Same here, but turns out I'm much better than you!" He skated a circle around me.

I pushed his shoulder lightly, and he ended up falling. "And you say you're better than me?" I asked as we both erupted into laughter.

"Maybe by just a little." He laughed out.

I extended my hand to help him back up, but before I could let go, I noticed a smirk come across his face and he pulled me down with him.

In between laughs I got to speak. "You're so mean!"

"And to think, I was just telling you that this morning!" He laughed.

We both stood back up and tried our hardest not to fall. "Yeah, but you're way meaner." I crossed my arms.

Parker then threw his arm around me and put the camera out in front of us. Then he got an idea, "Let's try skating like this!" Parker said like it was the best thing to come out of his mouth.

"We're gonna die if we do that." I told him.

"Come on Ali, you gotta believe!" Parker said.

"Ugh, fiiiine..."

And we tried our hardest to stay in motion together and were actually doing pretty good. Well, until someone commented.

"What a cute couple! Keep trying there guys!" A random person said. I didn't even see who said it.

This got us laughing, which ended us up to falling again, but this time I had landed on top of him. Parker had dropped his camera and decided it was time to put it away and he smiled up on me. "Hey Ali, I guess you could say, you fell for me." Parker have a cheesy smile.

I rolled my eyes. "Guess so." And tried to give him a kiss.

"Eh eh eh!" He said, pushing my head back. Then he whispered, "It's not midnight yet."

I laughed at him and stood up again. "I think it's best if we stick to skating on our own." I told him.

"Good idea." He laughed.

We ended up skating for an hour, but then it got cold. "How's finding some coffee sound?" Parker asked.

"Sounds great right about now."

-----

"ALI WERE ALL GONNA DIE ITS ALMOST A NEW YEAR WERE GONNA DIIIIEEEEEE!" Parker yelled as he ran around our hotel room.

"Hey dude, shut up." I laughed.

"BUT ALI! WERE GONNA DIE!" He yelled again.

"Do you not see that I am on the phone?" I rolled my eyes.

"Oh, sorry. HI WHOEVER ALI IS TALKING TO!" Parker continued to yell.

"It's Carly." I told him.

"HI CARLY!" Parker yelled.

"HI PARKER!" Carly yelled back, causing me to move the phone away from my ear.

"You guys are obnoxious." I said.

"Whatever, Ali, tell me the rest of the story later, okay? Go have fun calming Parker down and watching the ball drop. I'll see you next year!" She said.

"You, are so cheesy." I said.

"Bye!" Carly said and before I could say anything back, I hung up.

"ONLY A FEW MORE MINUTES TIL TWO K SIXTEEN!" Parker yelled, looking out our window.

"What are you looking for?" I asked.

"Either trying to see if we can see any fireworks, or alien spaceships of death." He nodded once.

"Wow, I wonder which is gonna be more likely." I said.

"Probably the alien spaceships of death." Parker turned back to face me.

I shrugged. "Probably."

And soon enough, there was ten seconds.

"HAPPY NEW YEAR!" The tv, and Parker, shouted. And Parker gave me a kiss.
