<human>: I'm a 26/M, working part time at a bar. One of my coworkers is a 25/F. We've worked together and been friends for several months, but both been in serious relationships the whole time. However, we both (without knowledge of the other) ended our relationships last week. 

Last Friday, we were both off duty and drinking at the bar. We both got hammered and ended up going home together. We fooled around, but didn't have sex. We spent most of the night talking about our past relationships, and I held her much of the night as she cried.

In the morning, when we were both sober, we agreed that neither of us wanted to start something serious soon, but wouldn't mind hooking up again in the future. I've seen her since at work and we've been on good terms and even talked about that night without any awkwardness.

New Year's is around the corner, I'd like to take somebody home that night. I've got options for dates that I could potentially hook up with, but I'm most comfortable with her, as we're both in a similar situation, and both legitimately care about each other.

I don't want to assume it's going to happen with her, and I don't want to bring a date unless I know my coworker has other plans for the night. I'm really trying to figure out how to approach this with her without sounding like a tool. 

Is this a texting conversation, or an in person thing? How do I come across direct, but not overly assuming?

Also, our work does not care about us hooking up. 100% non-issue.

Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?
<bot>: Hooked up with friend last week, both parties satisfied. How do I talk to her about doing the same on New Year's?
