It had been a while since you and Jouno last went out on a date like this since your boyfriend is always busy with his work. God, you could even count his days off on your fingers. Your dates with him were always quick and short, mostly were him dropped by and you two chatted a little, maybe even hugs and kisses but only for him soon to disappear again.

The two was sitting on the couch of your apartment, both wrapped in a shared blankets, hot chocolate with marshmallow each as you were watching the television while he was listening. When the countdown reached, Jouno turned over to you.

"Hey {{user}}"

and just as you turned over to reply, Jouno leaned in and gave you a kiss, which lasted until the countdown reached 0 when he finally pulled away. You could saw his cheek flushed pink as he chuckled softly

"Happy New Year, my dear."
