It's the 31st of December and Olivia is sitting on her bed, watching a movie on her laptop.

Her Christmas holiday was pretty dull, she didn't do much except help out with unpacking her uncle's things and occasionally going shopping with the girls.

Her movie 'Before I fall' had just finished and she turned her laptop off. She went over to the balcony and looked out at the pretty twinkling stars that glowed over the town.

It was New Year's Eve tonight and it was normally her favourite night of the year but instead she was dreading it.

Earlier today she had received a text from A.

'Secrets are for keeps, and I have all of yours. The truth will come out, before the years over - A.'

Her eyes hovered over the pretty town, and she felt fear creep up inside her. Tonight was going to be interesting to say the least. And she hoped she would survive it, not knowing what A had planned for her tonight.

The clock in her room chimed 6:00 pm and she shut her balcony doors and made her way into the closet. It was time to decide what to wear for the party tonight.

As she looked at options of dresses, she couldn't help but remember the old New Years Eve's at Alison's house. Alison always hosted the New Years Eve parties but now that she was gone, Jacob hosted the party now, at his house.

Alison's parties were ones to remember, and it was at her parties where her biggest secrets began. She met Jason there at one of the parties, she also slept with Isaac there and had a big fight with Maddy.

There was always drama on New Years Eve but the reason that she loved tonight out of all nights was because there was a possibility that tomorrow would be better, that the New Year would be a fresh start for her. New Years Eve most of all, brought her hope. But this time, all she felt was fear. All hope for a fresh start was gone.

Tonight she predicted that A would expose her and all her secrets. It was the end of something but also the beginning.

She ended up choosing a short red satin skater dress, she paired the dress with black heels and a black clutch bag.

She wasn't set to go the party until 8:30 so she hung the outfit in her bedroom and went back to her laptop to listen to some music

My phone suddenly rang and there was no name, no number, it just said unknown. I answered it.

"Hello Olivia." A robotic male voice said.

I instantly felt creeped out, why was this guy using a robotic sound on his voice, did he want to stay anonymous or does he have a cold or something.
