New Years Eve, a time to be with friends and family. But also a time for parties, and with parties comes alcohol which inevitably can lead to some bad things.
It should have been a warning sign to all of them when Penelope Horvath had invited them to a New Years party at her house.
Hermione convinced them that they should all attend. FP and Alice were really the only two who protested even slightly.
"Come on you guys, it'll be fun." Hermione said, trying to convince the two of them to come.
"I don't know Hermione, I mean Penelope hasn't always been the kindest to the people living in the Southside, how do you even know she'll want us there?" Alice says as she grabs her books out of her locker.
"Yeah not to sound like a jerk but Penelope Horvath is quite possibly the devil incarnate. I don't think I want to ring in the new year with her." FP adds, and Alice nods her head in agreement.
"Come on you two, I know you don't have better plans."
"You have no idea what we have planned." Alice exclaims.
"Oh please. You'll probably sit around in FP's trailer, drinking cheap liquor and eating Pop's takeout."
"Sounds like a fun night to me." FP says, Alice agrees.
"No, uh uh. You guys are coming."
"No, Hermione we already told you we're not."
"At least come for a little bit and if it's really that bad then you can leave. Okay? Do we have a deal?" Hermione asks with a pleading look on her face. FP looks to Alice who just shrugs her shoulder and then turns back to face Hermione.
"Fine." He lets out and Hermione squeals in delight. "But if it's as bad as I think it's going to be we're out of there."
"Fine, deal." And with that Hermione gets into her car and drives away.
"I really don't want to ring in the new year with Penelope Horvath and all those other prissy Northsiders." Alice says, bitterly.
"I know baby, I don't either. But I do want to spend it with our friends."
"Well I do too but I don't understand why we can't just hang out at one of our houses."
"Tell you what," FP says, leaning into her and lightly pressing her body into the door of his truck with his own. "if it's as bad as we think it will be then we'll go back to my place and I'll make it up to you." He presses a kiss to her neck and then looks back up at her, meeting her eyes with his own.
"Fine." She says, smiling ever so slightly. "But we're getting takeout and we're drinking the cheap tequila we got from the Wyrm."
"Fine by me. As long as you're with me I don't care what we're doing."

"Alright, I'm already over this can we go home now?" Alice whines as they stand just outside of Penelope's front door.
"Alice we haven't even gone in yet, how about you save the dramatics until they're actually necessary?" Hermione says, annoyed at Alice's attitude.
"I just don't have a good feeling, that's all."
"You'll be fine. Now let's go." Hermione opens the door and instantly the sound of loud music rings through all of their ears, and the heavy scent of marijuana and liquor hangs in the air.
"Hermione, you made it!" Penelope squeals once she sees the fellow cheerleader. "And you brought your handsome boyfriend." She says, looking over at Fred.
