I'd walked up to One Eye's Jacks thinking I'd count down until the New Year there, but meet two friends as they were coming out the door on their way to see the fireworks. I checked my phone to see if the person I was looking for had responded to my question about whether they were inside or not, but there was no reception so instead of counting down the new year waiting to get inside I walked with these friends, down to the river.
We'd just counted down the new year and I stood taking their photo with her camera as they kissed. I tilted the lens forward, looking into the little screen on the back to see if I'd gotten the photo in the low light when I felt a pair of lips pressed to each cheek and heard a "Happy New Year" whispered into each ear.
