It all started with one kiss.... "Addison, hey", Bryce stops me as I'm walking to grab a soda. "Yeah?" I ask over the loud music. Bryce smiles, looking nervous "you planning on getting a New Years kiss tonight?" I stutter. Did he just ask me that? Wait, what if he wants to kiss me at midnight?! "Uhm no, no I'm not", I finally answer. Bryce's eyes light up "how 'bout us kissing at midnight?"
