I NEED U

CHLOE'S POV
It's New Year's Eve.

I usually go to a stupid party with Jay, but I'm spending it with Drew this year.

As long as I'm with him, I'm okay.

At around five I go to his house.

"We should've gone to see the ball drop." He said.

"You're such a tourist." I said.

He laughed.

"I hope you know twenty eighteen will be your year. It'll be my year. It'll be our year." He told me.

"Speaking of which, I heard back from UCLA today." I said.

"And?" He asked.

"The University of California Los Angeles is delighted to let you know that we've accepted you for the twenty eighteen twenty nineteen school year." She said.

"Chlo!" I exclaimed squeezing her.

"Now I have three beautiful school flags above my bed." I said.

"Soon, there will be more." He said.

"Hopefully." I said.

"Don't worry. You got this." He said.

Later into the night, I went back inside my house to get a bottle of champagne.

We were going to climb the roof again.

"You were the best part of my twenty seventeen." I said staring at the darkened sky.

"Shooting star." He said pointing at the sky.

We closed our eyes and wished.

"What'd you wish for?" He asked.

"If I tell you, it won't come true." I said.

"Fair point." He said.

He looked at his watch.

"Only an hour until twenty eighteen." He said.

"Let's make this our year. I love you so much." I said.

"I love you so much more." He said.
