Firelightshipping (with one-side Explosiveshipping and MeltedIceshipping): New Year, New Life
"Congratulations" said Zack
She always knew if there was something wrong, if he was thinking in something, if he was avoiding someone… to cut it short; she knew how to read him; then, how come that she couldn't notice that his heart was falling in pieces?
'Never mind' he told himself; a whole year had gone since Maryn had left him with a broken heart, she and her new blond boyfriend where as happy as someone had to be… he avoided those thoughts; after all it was New year
::::::::::::::::::::::::
She knew that he was up for someone else, however she had fall deep for him… she couldn't tell why; maybe it was for the persistence of the guy when he was up to Victory, or maybe the way he treated Maryn. Secretly she wanted to know how it felt like to have someone to feel that way for her and ended wanting HIM to feel that way for her…
She was worried for him since Maryn had started dating Barry; when she heard the notice she knew that he wouldn't react happily, after all he was in love with Maryn… she was right in that matter
:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:
He walked to the lake just to avoid all the people at, how Victory called it, 'the New year, folks' party; but principally to avoid Maryn and Barry who were talking to everyone else about how they met and that kind of stuff… he already knew those stories pretty well; what he didn't know was that she was following him
"You ok?" asked her
He turned to face her
"Dawn… What are you doing here?" asked Zack
"You left without saying a word… besides I got sick of listening to that old story" said her (Dawn)
"I see… It's the same here actually" said Zack
"Let's hope this year does not go like last year" said Dawn
"You can say that again" said Zack
Both changed a look and started laughing; the sun was setting as they started talking about the places where they gone what have they saw
"He is?" asked Zack
"I know… I couldn't believe it either" said Dawn
"Now that's what you call 'plot twist'… or something like that" said Zack
She laughed at that comment and he smiled; they kept on talking till it was night… yet there was plenty of time for the so waited New Year
"You know… there's a phrase that says 'if a year starts good it'll end better'!" said Dawn
"That explains so much and so little at the same time" said Zack
"I know" said Dawn
Both laughed at that; well if the phrase was true then this might be a good year… but you know it's not like swearing it and ruining it, because that happens a lot! Anyways he had nothing else to lost, did he?
She was having the best day so far; she could tell he was enjoying this and that made her happy… and then this was a good start for a new year
"So… basically you went after her for half a year" said Dawn
"It sounds stupid when you say it like that" said Zack
"Actually I think it's kind of sweet; most girls will love if that happens to them… it's just, that she is different" said Dawn
"You're telling me!" said Zack
Both laughed by that thought
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
"Am I the only one that has noticed that neither Zack nor Dawn is here?" asked Britany
"Yes; you indeed are" said Thomas
"Don't tease!" said Britany
The others were watching them and laughing
"Those two are better than a comedy act" said Victory
"You can say that again" said Maryn
Both changed a look and started laughing
"This year it's starting pretty well" said Victory
:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:
Zack gazed a look to his watch to see that there were only 20 seconds to the so waited New Year
"The countdown it's about to start" said Dawn
"Wanna start now?" asked Zack
She nodded
"19…18" said Dawn
"17…16" said Zack
"15… 14" said Dawn
They didn't notice how close they were; both looking to the place where the sun had disappeared long ago
"11… 10" said Dawn
"9… 8" said Zack
Now voices of more people were in the air
"7… 6" said Dawn
"5… 4" said Zack
Now they changed a look knowing that there were just 3 seconds left… their ayes met and they stopped the count; it was like time stopped and they were so close
The first firelight lighted the sky and also her eyes; the sky started being full of lights shining in different colors… he felt his heart ricing up and decided to take a risk; he kissed her and when he got separated he made a half smile
"Happy New Year Dawn" said Zack
He left walking away… she put a hand in her mouth and made a smile
"Happy New Year… Zack" said Dawn
And Happy New Year for you all!
