Volume 1: THE PARTY THAT CHANGED ALL. Chapter 1:

“You’re listening right?”, Freya asked over the phone.

“Yeah yeah I am”, another girl answered from the other side.

“You know I am not kidding this time. It’s pretty serious.” Freya put more emphasis on her words as if to express how serious she was.

“I get it Fey-Fey! It’s a love triangle situation right?” the other girl on the phone assured.

“Technically yes. But you know I am not interested in him.”  

“Yes whatever you say missy.”

“By the way don't tell Keez that I already told you about yesterday.”

“Who? Kirsten? Nah why should I. Even if she confides in me by herself I will pretend to hear it for the first time.”

“Hmm.

Say Sops, will our friendship be soiled with this?”, Freya asked concernedly.

“Uhh…….it depends on how you three will cope with it. Also don’t call me Sops. It sounds like soap. Call me something proper!” the other girl chirped.

“No. Calling you Sophie is awkward. I'll call you Sops! Sops sops sops!” Freya teased Sophia.

“Urgh stop it. Once is enough!!!” Sophia yelled over the speaker as Freya started giggling.

“Ehem. Sorry. But we are very cool about it for now. And I hope we do for ever.” Freya returned to the topic at hand.

“Uh-huh. Just don’t complicate things later and make it uncomfortable.” Sophia gave a friendly reminder.

“No way that’s happening!”

“It’s okay then. But I really gotta go now. Or I'll be late. Bye.”

“Yeah go. Bye”

Freya put the phone down and walked up to the window. As she gazed outside, she kept recalling yesterday evening. She can’t seem to forget it that easily; the most thrilling new year’s eve of her life till now.

Ace, Freya and Kirsten(the ‘i’ pronounced as ‘ee’) . These three were best friends for quite a while now. Not really childhood buddies as they met each other at different points of time and at different places. But still it's been a pretty three years that they were hanging out together and thus were very close to each other. Yesterday being the New Years they planned on partying together.

As a matter of fact, Freya's home was chosen for the purpose. It was huge, equipped with the best quality home theatres and since Freya wasn’t allowed to leave her home, it qualified as the best destination to have a blast.

Moreover her parents didn't mind these stuffs since they were very busy persons and hardly had the time to bother with these.

And so the drinks were bought, the living room downstairs was decorated with beautiful party lights, tasty foods were served and with the best playlist playing on the speakers, the overall vibe was a chef's kiss. Ace even brought his older sister Annie which spiced things up even more.

After a few shots of Vodka, Kirsten was already tipsy. Ace, Freya and Anne were veterans so it took quite a number of shots to get them drunk.

It was then that Annie brought up the idea of playing truth and dare. The one who wouldn’t be complying should drink two shots of Vodka as punishment.

The rest of them agreed right away. Was it the alcohol muddling their thoughts? Well, who knows.

It started off pretty well considering all of them were quite drunk. Even between dares like hugging each other, giving small pecks, embarrassing confessions, or doing weirdest poses, they seemed to enjoy themselves.

Yet, things soon got heated up as Annie dared Kirsten to kiss Ace. Not some sisterly pecks on cheeks but a true kiss, right on the lips. For the moment, the effect of alcohol seemed to wear off and  they all became sober.

A kiss on the lips? It's true they were close and sometimes invaded more of each other’s personal space than was necessary. But this amount of intimacy was something they never dared.
