Pairing: Daniel Bryan/Kazarian
Prompt: Dark
Daniel glanced around him, feeling slightly uncomfortable and out of place at this party. It was New Year's Eve, and for once WWE was in Tampa, the same city at most of the TNA roster. Daniel had a lot of friends on both sides, but what was making him uncomfortable was the New Year's Eve policy in the bar: at midnight, the lights went out and it was a kissing free for all. Then when the lights came up again you had to face the music. Ever since the end of his relationship with Brie, he hadn't really been in the mood to kiss anyone at all.
"10…9…8…" great, the countdown had begun. Daniel tried to make his way through the crowd towards an exit, but it was a madhouse. People were trying to get to the ones they wanted to kiss, and Daniel was knocked sideways into someone who grabbed him and held on.
"It's ok," the stranger murmured. "Just let the animals have their fun." The lights plunged into darkness, followed by relative quiet as people began kissing. The stranger kept his grip on Daniel, who was rapidly becoming thankful towards this unexpected savior. Ten seconds later, the lights came back on and Daniel turned to thank the mystery man, only to find his friend Frankie Kazarian standing there grinning at him. He smiled back.
"Thanks, Frankie," he said. "I would've been toast without you."
"No problem, Bry. Happy New Year."
