Chapter
Six: New Years Eve to Remember

Christmas was great for the Houshi and the Taisho families. But this New Years Eve was going to be something to remember. At the Houshi family Christmas Party, Inuyasha had invited the group of kids to the Taisho house hold for a New Years Eve party. They never had one before; they never really had a reason to. Usually it was just Inuyasha, Rin and Sesshoumaru watching the ball drop in Times Square, but this year they wouldn't be by themselves. Rin would be at Yura's house since the party was going to get crazy and loud. That afternoon Inuyasha went with one of the butlers to pick up drinks and mixers as well as food for them to pig out on. Sesshoumaru thought it was ridiculous to drink under age. He thought it was ridiculous to drink at all. But Inuyasha kept pushing that it was New Years Eve and to give in and have fun.
When he got back to the house Sesshoumaru had just gotten back from dropping Rin off at Yura's and they both got down to setting up for the party. It was already 6:37pm and their friends would start arriving around 7:00pm and would spend the night. Without any parents there to tell the kids what to do, they were bound to do something stupid, that's why Sesshoumaru instated one of the butler's in charge of drinks. He wouldn't stop the kids from drinking, he would just not give them as much alcohol as they wanted; but Inuyasha wanted to argue against it.
"Where's the fun in that?"
"So you do want father to kill you when he sees his house torn to pieces from stupid drunk kids who were invited by you?" he quipped.
"No, but still, they won't do anything too stupid. After a while they'll probably start making out with each other and then dance, and eat and watch the ball drop. Nothing getting destroyed in there."
Which was pretty much what happened. Everyone arrived and started in on the food at first. Then they just sat around and joked and laughed and talked for a while, until they realized there was alcohol. Almost all the guys (except Sesshoumaru) had beer. But the girls all had mixed drinks, like strawberry daiquiris and piña coladas, except Annika, she had a screwdriver. After all, her favorite drink was orange juice.
After about an hour or two, they went in the pool and played chicken for a bit, until it got a bit too chilly, even in the heated water; the sun was already down for about an hour or two.
Instead of getting changed, the kids went in the hot tub for a while before they would eat and watch the ball drop. Except Sesshoumaru, he took Annika to his own hot tub, just like last time.
They sat there for a while, enjoying each other's company. He had set up the stereo to play music they both enjoyed while they relaxed in the warm water. Sesshoumaru shifted them both so that Annika straddled his lap and he could wrap his arms around her. She blushed a bit as her breasts were pressed flush against his bare chest. He kissed her softly as she wrapped her arms around his neck. He kissed her a few more times and the last time he held on for a long time. When they pulled apart he touched their foreheads together and opened his mouth to say something when the door banged open and in barged Miroku.
He blushed a bit and felt a ping of jealousy to see them like that. "We're gonna watch the Time's Square thing now. It's about 11:30 already. You don't want to miss it do you?"
They got out of the water and dried off. Sesshoumaru let Annika get changed in his bathroom as he got changed in his bedroom. Then they joined everyone in the living room and Annika sat on Sesshoumaru's lap as they all just talked and watched the TV.
It was about time to count down to midnight when even the maids and butlers were in the room watching the TV with them. They were all whooping and cheering as they started to count down.

"Annika?"
\9/
"Yes?"
\8/
"I want to ask you something,"
\7/
She felt her heart flutter a bit, "Go on,"
\6/
"Well, This Sesshoumaru would like to ask you," he paused.
\5/
"Well?" Annika asked impatiently.
\4/
"Would you be this Sesshoumaru's girlfriend?"
\3/
"Oh! Of course!" she laughed and hugged him tightly.
\2/
He smiled and something in him felt so happy it was like he was going to burst. So he kissed her. He pressed his mouth against hers and held her there.
\1/
They pulled apart and smiled lazily at each other, then kissed again at midnight.
\Happy New Year/
Everyone shouted and cheered and hollered. The couples kissed at midnight and when they finished, they looked towards Sesshoumaru and Annika who were still kissing. They knew. They all knew he planned to ask her out. From what Miroku told them when he walked in on them before. Everyone was happy for the two. Finally Annika the match maker had finally caught the heart of the Ice Prince and melted it.
