"We are doing this because it is New Year's Eve," Angela told her firmly. "I love this night, and we should be able to..." Have fun? She wasn't sure about that. "We're going out, and drinking a lot of whatever's alcohol-spiked, and that's that."

"O-kay," Peyton said, "I'm here for you and whatever you want to do, you know that." Still she was in no hurry to get into her own dress.

"And I promise, this is what I want to do," Angela assured her, cradling her arm against her chest as she sat beside her friend. "I'm not proving anything, I'm just... I can't just hide forever, and I don't want to."
