Eric sat boredly at the picnic table outside of town. He felt awful. His schedule was filled for a day -- or days -- he didn't want to celebrate in the first place. New Year.
Why part with '06? It was the worst year of his life, but he didn't want to neglect the pain. People told him to let it go, that New Years was going to be fun, but not this year. Not with hundreds of people leaving the town and several others coming.
This was going to suck. The day of nothing but "I can't wait 'till tonight" and "Gunna rock!". It was going to suck. Than, there was the party. The dreaded party his 'rents would always take him to.
This was going to be anything but fun.
Soon, somebody he had never met before had come into seeing distance from Eric. "Oh joy, new kids" he thought as the person walked up to him
(( like all my thread starting, this can be anyone ))

Xavier walked up to a boy around his age.
"Hey, do you know where the big New Years party's gonna be this year?", he paused. "Everyone's been talking about it and Im really curious.."

Eric looked up with his his crossed eyebrows and squinted eyes roughly making out an angered look. He didn't want people to talk to him right now. Not about the new year. Not about anything to do with it. Nothing even remotely close.
"Think about it. What is there to celebrate?" Erick asked, mysteriously evading an answer to the boy's question.

Xavier was a bit confused at this point.
"Celebrating the new year, start your life over.. stuff like that I guess."

"It's a useless celebration of forgetting the year. And since it's annual, it's to forget every year. To forget your life." Eric said in an emotionless movement of his arm, folding over his right leg that stood out. "Ever thought of that?"

Xavier was taken back a bit at that. "No... I never.. I never did.." He furrowed his eyebrows together slightly as he thought.

"That's what I thought" Eric said after a slight pause. "You're like everybody else in this town"
