We get something to eat and I'm feeling more like myself.

Hoppo sticks around my apartment to make sure I don't go all stone on him again.

"Want me to call Jake?" He asks, Jake being the third person he asks me to stay with them or them to come here

I laugh, "Nooo Hoppo I said I'm okay."

"Well I'm just looking out for you that's what Godfathers do!"

I chuckle a bit.

My stomach turns, "Oh that burger is not sitting well."

"Well you better keep it down. You were white as a ghost when I saw you."

I laugh.

"Your going all Godfatherly protective on me when you don't need too." I finish my sentence with a yawn. "I should probably go to bed anyways." I tell him looking at my phone's clock, "It's almost 10. I have work tomorrow..."

"Well okay I guess you have a point there." He tells me opening the door, "Don't be late." He says closing the door behind I'm.

I giggle rolling my eyes while smiling.

I get ready for bed, get dressed into my Pjs, brush my teeth, and wash my face with some cool water.

I get into my cold empty bed. I look beside me where Harrison used to lay..I sigh sadly. "Another thing I screwed up."

~Next Day~

"Finally is New Years Eve and I'm feelin it!" I shout happily in the tower not being able to rescues because of my ankle and cut.

"Well some one is just as excited as I am." Maxi says giving a big smile as he puts his lunch in the fridge.

"Heckin yeah! New year, new START!" I cheer

Maxi laughs, "Even if that's without Harrison?" He asks quirking his eyebrow.

"Like I said. New year, new START!" I beam putting my hands up pretending to throw confetti.

"Oh I see what you did there..a new start with Harrison."

"Yup." I smile, "Only if he wants to." I still smile

"Why you still smiling at that though?"

I lower my voice, "Because he asked if I was okay after I hurt my ankle and leg."   

"Ah."

"Which means he still has feelings for me!" I screech happily this time throwing a little confetti.

"Wait, where did that come from?" Maxi ask frowning with question.

"Magic." I giggle, "nah I just had some in a little baggy." I point at the fairy dust looking pouch.

"You carry confetti with you everywhere you go on New Year's Eve?" Maxi asks concerned. "That's AWESOME! Can I have some!" He beams bouncing over with his hand out, cupped.

His eyes widen and his mouth opening, meaning he has an idea.

"What?"
