"5,4,3,2,1 Happy New Year!" everyone shouted. I stood in the mist of the crowd alone. The sight of everyone making toasts, couples kissing, and the smiles and enjoyment overwhelmed me. I knew it would be hard with out my fiancé here but I thought I could do it. See I had a fiancé named Jermaine he went by Jay but he recently left me for my sister. Yea that's messed up I know. As I stood downtown looking around at everyone I had an epiphany. Last year I was the nicest person. everyone knew they could come to Jewel for anything. See I think I was too nice. This year was my year. people who walked over me and did me wrong oh i am coming back for them one by one. little nice Jewel is now gone. I am about to introduce the new Jewel....

I decided to go to my favorite bar after watching the peach drop. I walked in the bar and of course it was crowded. I sat down at the bar and greeted the bartender.

"Heyyy Mark!" I shouted out over the music.

"Ayye Jewel! Hey beautiful what you doin out here tonight?"

" It's New Years! Where else am I going to be?" I said practically yelling at the top of my lungs.

he chuckled then said " what can I get you?"

"Let me get 5 shots of Silver Tequila." I said winking afterward.

he chuckled then said coming right up.

He brought me my shots then stood there looking at me.

"can I help you with something Mark?"

"I know you won't take all of them." he said with a smirk. I took the challenge. I can't be tested like that

"Watch me. And when I finish all five the rest of my drinks will be on the house. deal?"

he nodded letting me know we had a deal. I took each shot. knocking each of them back. when I finished I gave a smirk then said another round please sir. By the fourth round there was large crowds around me cheering me on like I was a child taking her first step. I was so gone I didn't even ask them to back up off me. I actually enjoyed the attention. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to give them a show. I stood up and stumbled my way on the bar. I began to move my body to the beat and undo my jacket. I took it off and then began to pull up my shirt when suddenly I lost my balance some how and off the bar I flew hitting the ground. It wasn't like a movie though. I didn't pop back up and everyone cheer. I was so embarrassed that I just laid there. Then that large crowd that was cheering me on began to all bust out in laughter.

I saw Mark lean over me to help me up. I'm off now. How about I take you home.

"Ohhhhh Ssmark that's so snice of you but you don't have to." I said sluring  my words

" yea come on lets go."

He walked me to the car and got my keys out of my pocket. He then drove me home.

Next Morning

I woke up with an extreme headache. I walked down my hall after freshing up. I passed my living room and then noticed Mark on my couch. I went into the living room waking him up.

"Good morning Mark."

"Hey beautiful. How you feelin?" rubbing his hand across my cheek.

I let out a deep breath before answering his question.

" I feel horrible."

" Of course. You went hard last night. I never seen you like that. Normally you just have your signature drink and call it a night. So, what was that about?"

" My introduction."

" Your intro to what?"

" I was hoping you asked that. but my introduction to the new me."

" Why?"

" Oh come on Mark. You know how much of a pushover I was. I am no longer that girl. I'm fun and outgoing now."

" Wow well ima go. This should be interesting."

He got up and left. Which was great. Cause I needed to start my day.

I took a long shower then got dress. I couldn't wear just anything though. I had to reveal my new side to everyone today. So, I put on my leggings with a strapless shirt. the back of the shirt was lace and showed my tattoo that I normally hid. I then put my cute heals on and then curled my hair. My new look was complete. First stop was to pick up my best friend Ginger.

"Hello gorgeous!" she said getting in the car.

"Hey honey bun! Happy New Year!"

"Happy New...owe boobs!" she said taking a look at me.

I chuckled then drove off. That was Ginger for you. For some odd reason she was obsessed with boobs. As I was driving I saw her out the corner of my eyes just staring at me.

"Something wrong?" I asked curious as to why she was staring at me.

"Your look is so different. What happened to the girl who wore jeans and plain black shirt with Timblands.?

"She wanted a change." I said with a wink.

"Uh-oh. This will be interesting."
