11:31 P.M.

"Everyone get your things together! It's almost time for the countdown!" Meiko (the most excited of them all) shouted at the top of her lungs in the living room. She was wearing an ivory wool sweater and skinny blue jeans.

"Jesus, Mei. Don't be so loud. You might wake the kids up," VY2 yawned, rubbing his eyes. He was wearing nothing but black briefs, "And besides, we only have twenty-nine minutes left. No need to rush."

"And you need to put more clothes on. It's freezing outside," Meiko commanded. VY2 shrugged, and walked upstairs to put more clothes on.

Meiko skipped into the kitchen where Mew was cooking some tempura and cake. She hugged the cooking Mew and squealed, "Aren't you excited for New Years?"

"Almost as much as you are," the cooking Mew whispered back, still trying to cook the cake. Meiko skipped out of the kitchen and back into the living room where she saw Anon and Kanon watching television. They were asleep on the floor side by side.

"Some people can never witness the excitement of New Years," Meiko muttered under her breath, "KAITO!" she screamed, "CAN YOU COME DOWN HERE FOR A SECOND?! WE HAVE TWO SLEEPING WEENIES!"

"Meiko, don't scream. You might wake the kids up," Kaito replied as he walked down the stairs into the living room where Meiko was at. He picked up Anon (the heavier one), and Meiko picked up Kanon. They carried the sleeping weenies up to their room and closed the door. When they got back to living room, they bumped into Lily and Kyo, who bought wine and vodka. Meiko jumped up and down when she noticed the wine and vodka. Kaito shushed her and reminded her of the sleeping weenies and kids.

"So, what took you guys so long to buy the alcohol? And where's Miki?" Kaito asked in a concerned tone.

3… 2… 1…

"MIKI?!" Kyo and Lily shouted at the top of their lungs. Everyone in the living room started panicking. Kyo and Lily ran right out of the Vocaloid mansion with Kaito and Meiko following right behind them. They ran all the way to the place where Kyo and Lily bought the wine and vodka. They searched for Miki everywhere, but she was no place to be found.

"Damn it, Lily! Why didn't you remember her when we were buying the bottles?!" Kyo exclaimed angrily at Lily.

"I didn't know that she would take off out of nowhere!" she replied back, equally as angry.

As the gang was walking back home, Meiko suggested, "Lily, did you consider calling Miki and asking where she is?" Lily shook her head.

"So, why don't you call her?" Meiko asked. Lily sighed, shrugged, and dug her phone out of her purse to call Miki. When she dialed Miki's phone number, a feminine high-pitched voice answered, "Hello?"

"MIKI, WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?! WE'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU EVERYWHERE!" Lily shouted in a hushed voice. She was clearly frustrated at Miki.

"I'm checking up on Kiyoteru. I took the last train just to see him," Miki replied.

"Why didn't you tell us that you took the last train?!" Lily demanded. The frustration grew stronger and stronger.

"…I thought I already told you that I was going to check up on Kiyoteru at lunch. " Actually, Lily did just remembered Miki telling everyone that she was going to check up on Kiyoteru.

"Yeah… I remembered. Sorry about that." Lily hung up. The gang walked back until they reached home. They waved to Mew in the kitchen.

"Did you guys ever find Miki?" Mew asked.

"Yep. She's with her loved one," Meiko replied happily. She checked her watch. It was 12:00 A.M..
