After you and Tokoyami got all your classmates to bed, you and Tokoyami decided to go and sit in the kitchen. A few bottles of alcohol-free champagne in the trash, stacks of hot drinks, and dishes after all the treats.

Sitting quietly in a chair he watched you and the way you turned on the garland, the soft glow of coloured lights decorated the room. Smiling at you, he sighed softly and leaned back in his chair.

It was so quiet, especially when you were already used to the music, laughter and cheers of your classmates. He looked at the remaining champagne, the half-drunk bottle was on the table, waiting to be poured.

The young man sat quietly for a few moments, then stood up, taking the bottle in his hands and picking up two new glasses. He filled the glasses professionally, tossed the bottle into the trash and picked up the glasses, approaching and offering the drink.

It was quiet, peaceful, everyone asleep except the two of you. The smell of tangerines, candy, and drinks flew in the air as you sat silently in the kitchen.

When you accepted the glass he sat down in his chair and leaned forward, holding out his glass to clink your glasses, an old tradition.

"Happy New Year."
