AN: Hey yall this is my first fan-fiction and I hope you like it. Please review! Thanks, Lyflyn.

Rosalie slammed her hands on the coffee table startling Alice and I, "What are we doing girls?"
"Well Rose, I thought we were watching a movie," Alice sarcastically replied.
"Exactly! What happened to us? It is Friday night, we are young and hot. So why are we sitting around here? Why aren't we out somewhere?"
"Because we are tired?," I weakly suggested.
Rosalie turned one of her icy glares on me. "Come on Bella, we stay in every night. When did we become boring?" Man, she's on a mission.
"I don't think we are boring." I told her.
"Yeah right Bella, when was the last time you went out? Hmm? When we were in collage we went out all the time."
"We are older now. Not as much time for partying."
"We are twenty-four Bella. That is not old. And I'm not saying we have to party hard, just have fun." Maybe we are boring. Seeing the defeat in my eyes she smiled.
Alice, who had been quietly watching this whole spectacle, spoke up, "Okay Rose you are right we are boring. The question is: what are we going to about it?"
"Well if we are trying to change ourselves maybe we can make New Years Resolutions," I suggested.
"Bella, come on it's October"
"No Rose," I explained, "It would be like New Years Resolutions except with less time. We make the goals but we only have to have until the end of the year to complete them. Or at the very least begin them."
Alice started bouncing, "I like it. They can be our Not-So-New Year Resolutions," she grabbed a pen and a piece of paper, "Okay, if we want to change we should keep basic goals. Work on the most important aspects of our life."
"Which are�" Rose drawled.
"Our jobs," I said. When they looked at me curiously I elaborated, "All of our current jobs suck. I mean Rose your boss is a pig, and Alice like you really want to work in that department store forever? Didn't you want to be a fashion designer? And I know I don't want to work as a secretary forever. So our resolution should be that we quit our jobs this year and work on our dream careers."
"Good idea Bella. You know what else we need to spice up our life? Men. We can make one of our goals falling in love," Yeah right like these two need to make falling in love a goal. They have guys tripping over themselves all the time.
"Your turn Alice. You think of a resolution," I ordered.
"Well, we have work, and love. We need something to increase our spontaneity. Something fun that would give us great memories, and great stories to tell," She was quiet for a minute when her face lit up. "I know! We will make a Dare Jar."
Okay now I'm afraid "Alice what exactly is a Dare Jar?" I hesitantly asked.
"Well," she started, "It is a jar that we will contribute dare ideas to. We will take turns drawing out of it, one week I will draw, the next Rose, and so on. And whatever it says on the piece of paper that is what we have to do. It can help take us out of our comfort zone and have fun."
"What kind of dares?," I inquired.
"I don't know, something like flash a cop."
Rosalie started laughing, "You've already done that one Alice. Poor Charlie couldn't look at you for weeks. But I like the idea."
"Well we need rules," I stated, "Like no committing major crimes."
"Yeah, and we all have to approve of any potential love interests," Rosalie said, "Otherwise Bella will end up with a nerd."
"Hey," I defended myself, "Not all of those guys were bad. We can't all be beautiful." Rosalie with her long corn silk tresses and legs that go on forever. And Alice with her style and petite beauty. I often wondered why they were even friends with plain ole me.
"Come on Bella, your gorgeous. How many times do we have to tell you?" Alice asked.
"Whatever," I sighed, "Lets just finish the rules." After we finished deciding the rules, Alice hung the paper on the refrigerator.
Not-So-New Year Resolutions
1) Quit our dead-end jobs and get started on our dream careers.
2) Fall in love.
3)Make memories with the Dare Jar.
Rules:
1) No committing major crimes.
2) Potential loves must be approved by the others.
3) All dares have to be completed with all three of us in attendance.
4) All dare will be drawn outside of the apartment.
5) You must be a good sport about all dares.
"That's it," Rosalie said proudly, "Now we just have to make our dares."
"I've already got mine!" Alice exclaimed wave some slips of paper over her head, "Remember, write four of them and put them in the jar. We begin tomorrow night. We decided on Midnight Sun as our meeting place, right?" She smiled when we both nodded, "Okay then, goodnight Bella, goodnight Rose."
Rose and I wrote our dares, put them in the jar, and headed off to bed. I wonder what tomorrow will bring.
Thanks for reading yall! Hope you liked it!
