The Park, New Years Eve Party 2010

[justhisblogger.livejournal.com]

The gates and walls of Fandom were covered in lights big and small, and as soon as the sun went down, they went on. They could be followed, like a path, down to the park, where even the trees shone brightly in the night.

There were tables upon tables of food, and bottles of drink; chief among them was the cocoa, kept warm and snugly spiked with peppermint schnapps for those who dared to touch it. There were bonfires here and there, to keep the chill out of everyone's bones, and a thick sheet of ice laid upon the pond, ready to be skated on.

Thanks to the bright, cheerful lights, the decorations also became visible: angels and animals and flowers made of snow and lit with an almost unearthly soft neon glow, pinks and blues and gentle greens.

It was New Years Eve, 2010, and Fandom was ready to let the year turn in style.

"I can find someone else to kiss at midnight," Ben threatened like a big liar.

"If you did, I'd have to do it too," Tahiri retorted, clearly not buying that. "It's okay, Ben. I'll protect you from gremlins."

"Thank you," Ben said, flashing her a smile. "It's going to be one of my resolutions this year, not getting bit."

Good luck keeping that one, Ben. "Oh, well, if you need me to help you with that, I suppose . . ." Tahiri grinned at him over the top of her coffee cup.

Ben's cheeks went red, and not from the cold. "I didn't mean that..."

"And here I had mentally prepared myself to make a huge sacrifice for your sake." Tahiri sighed dramatically. "Of course, I'm hardly complaining."

"I'd hope not," he laughed, leaning in for a kiss.
