   'Ding!' I hear my phone go off, not once but multiple times. I groan as I wake up, lifting myself out of bed. I rub my eyes as I pick my phone up from the nightstand.

   I sigh setting down my phone, today is New Years. Wait, it's New Years! Shit! And I still have to go shopping for the party. I hop out of bed, putting on my glasses. I find my gray sweater on the floor, picking it up and pulling it over my bare chest. I go to my dresser and find my skinny jeans, slipping them on as well. 

   I make my way over to my bathroom, while sliding on my sandals. I look at myself in the mirror, with my brown hair messy from sleeping. I find a brush to calm my hair down. After brushing my hair, I grab my toothbrush, brushing my teeth.

   I look at myself in the mirror, perfect. I grab my phone, texting Aphmau back. I throw my bag over my shoulder.

Aphmau: Np Vylad! I was just wondering if u wanted some help with shopping for ur party tonight? I'm assuming u haven't started yet. (Sent 9:27)

Aphmau: Kk! Be there in 10! (Sent 9:27)

   She knows me so well. I grab my wallet and keys, heading out the door. I'll be seeing Garroth for the first time in awhile at least tonight, but sadly Zane won't be there. Ever since he and Travis got engaged, he's been busy with the wedding. Speaking of weddings, Aaron and Aphmau got married a while back, I was Aphmau's best man. I found that wedding really fun, I wonder if I'll ever get married. Probably not, I sigh. 

   I walk down the stairs of my apartment building. As I reach the end of the stairs, I see the busy streets. It's probably going to be excessively busy today considering the fact it's New Years. I shove my phone in my pocket, making my way towards the Starbucks. We tend to meet up here often, considering the fact we love coffee, and it's just an easy place for us to get around in. Our friend Lucinda also works as a barista there, so it's fun to go in and see her.

   I open the door, and walk inside. I see Lucinda taking an order, I decide to hop in line. As the person in front of me finishes their order and walks off, I lean against the counter. "I'll have the usual." I say in a sly tone. Lucinda snaps her head over to me, "Vylad! Hey!" she exclaims. 

 She smiles, adjusting her glasses. "I'll have that right out! I'm assuming Aphmau is coming too?" she asks. "She should be here any minute now, but yeah-" I get cut off by someone putting a hand on my shoulder. "I'm here!" She exclaims. "That'll be right out then." Lucinda giggles. Aphmau gives me a hug, and pulls away asking "You ready to go shopping?" "As ready as I'll ever be." I chuckle. 

   We step out of the way and wait for our drinks. "So, what's your theme this year, Mr. Partyman?" She giggles. "Oh, ha ha. Very funny. And I think I'm going with a gray theme, with the accent of gold." I chuckle, responding back to her. "I have a drink for, Vylad." The barista at the counter sets down my drink. I pick up my drink, and at the same time Aph's name gets called as well.
