"Happy New Year!" Momo said to her master, waking him up. Justin got out of bed from that rude awakening.
"Momo, it's not new year's yet. That'll be after midnight." he said to her.
"Oh... Sorry, Master." she said in disappointment. He kind of felt bad. She had a child-like mind, after all.
"It's fine. But, I do need to start getting ready for my date tonight." he said. Yeah, him and Tiffany were going on a date to watch the fireworks. Though, he still felt some guilt about not telling her about the wedding. But, he just needed to play it cool and pretend he didn't know about it. What wedding?
He started to get ready. He took a shower, put on some deodorant, and then dressed in some nicer clothes. Usually, he wore a purple button-up shirt, black jacket, and black pants. This time, however, he decided to dress up a little nicer. He wore his brown pinstriped shirt, black pants, a gold watch on his wrist, and necklace around his neck. Of course, he had his commitment ring on his hand to show that him and Tiffany were an item.
A few hours later, she arrived at his house. She rung the doorbell. He opened it and his jaw dropped.
"Hi, Babe. Ready to go?" the blonde girl greeted. She was wearing a beautiful red dress with sparkles on it. This was also one of the very few times her hair was completely down, rather than in pigtails.
"What? You see something?" she asked, as he was still in utter dismay.
"N-No! Just taking in the view. Yeah, I'm ready to go." he said, snapping out of it.
"Okay, good. But, before we go, can I come in? I need to use the bathroom."
Of course, this would be a problem. Celeste was in there. He then thought: Why not?
"Y-Yeah. Go ahead. But, please knock before you enter." he said. She nodded and went inside his house, heading towards the bathroom.
"Anyone in there?" she said while knocking.
"Who is it?" the blue girl said. Tiffany heard her voice and thought it was Lailani.
"Oh, sorry. I didn't know you were in there." she said.
"It's quite alright." she replied. She then went to the living room to wait until she got out. But, it came to her surprise to see Lailani sitting on the couch.
"Hi, Tiffany." she greeted.
"Lailani? How did you get out of the bathroom so quick?" she asked.
"Hmm?" the Polynesian girl replied in confusion.
Tiffany then realized that the girl in the bathroom wasn't Lailani, and that voice she heard definitely wasn't Momo.
"Justin?" she called. He came in, knowing the jig was up.
"Yes, Tiffany?"
"Who's the girl in your bathroom?"
"Ah, okay, you got me. I'll introduce you to her. But, please keep in mind that she's in a weird costume. I'm gonna go get her."
He then went to the bathroom. Celeste was in the bathtub, either taking an ice cold bath or trying to relax.
"What is it, Justin?" she asked.
"Look, Celeste. My friend Tiffany's here and she's a believer in Christ, not aliens or scientology. She said she wants to meet you so play it cool."
"Well, alright. Let me put my clothes on and I'll come meet her." she said. He left the bathroom and let her put her clothes on.
She came out and he introduced her.
"Tiffany? This is me and Lailani's friend, S-Sierra. She's a... cosplayer." he said, trying to cover up that she was actually a space alien.
"My name is not Sierra, my name is Celeste. I came from the planet Tendricide."
"Ha, yeah. She's REAL deep into character right now. She's trying to be an actor in a movie about blue aliens."
"Nice to meet you, Celeste. My name's Tiffany. I love your costume."
"I highly appreciate the compliment. I have several other outfits in my wardrobe, one being made of latex. Though, for some reason, it makes many men become rather erotic whenever they see me wear it." she admitted, referring to her red jumpsuit with nipple clamps.
"Well, I'm glad I met you. But, me and Justin are going on a date tonight to celebrate New Year's."
"Alright. I hope you two have a wonderful time together. Me and Ms. Kealoha shall be here whenever you return." the blue girl said.
Tiffany went to the bathroom. But, Justin felt like something was off. He then started to think about Vinnie. Yeah, he needs someone to spend the evening with.
He then called Kyanna.
"Hello?" the Hispanic girl answered.
"Kyanna? It's Justin."
"Oh hey, Man. Good to hear from you! So, how was the party last week? Did things get crazy after me and Philly left?" she asked, referring to the Christmas party.
"It was... interesting. But, look. I have a favor to ask you. My friend Vinnie said he's gonna have to spend New Year's alone again. So, I was wondering if you'd... you know? Give him something to do?"
"Uh... I don't know. After that experience I had with Pablo, I don't think I need to be in a relationship ever again." she said.
"Look, Kyanna. Vin is nothing like his adopted brother. He's considerate, loyal, and makes a great father figure. He treats Momo like she's his only daughter, even though he's just a babysitter for her."
She then began to think. "You know what? Yeah, you're probably right. And if he's a great father figure, then my son could definitely use a guy like that in his life. I'll go pay him a visit and see if he wants to do anything tonight."
"I'm so glad to hear that. But, look. I've got to go. Me and Tiffany are going on a date to watch the fireworks. Call me later and tell me how it went. I want what's best for you, your son, and him."
"Alright. I'll talk to you later. Enjoy your date." she hung up. Now, there's just one more thing to take care of.
"Momo?" he called for the cat-girl.
"Yes, Master?" she replied.
"How would you like to spend time with Vinnie tonight?" he said. Her face lit up.
"Yes! I would really love that, Master!". She was so excited.
Tiffany came out of the bathroom. "Are you ready to go?" she asked.
"Yes, I'm ready. But, I'm going to drop Momo off at Vinnie's house on the way."
They headed out the door. Lailani and Celeste would have the house to themselves for the evening. Hopefully, no more wild parties would happen. Though, neither of them were as careless or irresponsible as Audrey.
He went to Vin's house and knocked on the door. The ginger cat-man opened it.
"Hi, Vin. Watch Momo tonight for me, okay?" he said, being completely vague.
"Um, okay? Sure. What's this about?" he asked.
"Just watch her and spend time with her like a father and daughter, okay? That's all I need you to do."
He nodded. He brought her inside. Hopefully, having Momo there would prove his father-figure behavior to Kyanna even more.
Justin and Tiffany headed to the scenic overlook. Yeah, it looked much different nowadays. More people go there for romantic dates. But, they sat down and watched the sun set.
This was very romantic. But then, Tiffany decided to start flirting with him.
"You look very handsome tonight, Babe." she said.
"O-Oh, thanks. Yeah, I wore some different clothing for once. I'm wearing my Wisefella outfit."
"Well, you look so handsome in it. I especially like the necklace you're wearing."
He blushed. Since she was flirting with him, he figured it'd be appropriate to flirt back.
"You look so beautiful in that dress of yours. I never knew you liked dresses with sequin."
She blushed back. It was pretty obvious that they both had genuine feelings for each other.
"You are so nice. But, instead complimenting our clothes, how about we talk about that sweet and loving personality of yours?" she said, continuing the chain of flirtation.
"Y-Yeah. I'm sweet when I need to be. But, can we just talk about that affection you show? You care about everyone's feelings. You are the most genuine girl I've ever met."
She blushed again. He was being so sweet, she almost couldn't handle it.
"S-Stop. You're too nice." she said, sarcastically.
"You're nicer than me. But, all I can say is... I love you." he said with a completely honest tone.
She smiled. Not an ordinary smile, but a smile that showed a great amount of affection. The same expression you see when someone has a large amount of happiness in them.
Eventually, midnight came around and the fireworks started. Let's just say that him and Tiffany made out like it was a fairy tale come to life.
"Happy New Year's, Justin." she said, proceeding to smooch him.
"H-Happy New Year's to you too, Tiffany Maye."
The fireworks ended. Now what?
"Hey, do you wanna maybe, I don't know... Go back to your place? If you want to, that is..." she said. Oh shit, is she going to do the dirty with me?
He agreed and they went back to his house. Him and Tiffany did have sex, and it felt good. There were definitely real feelings between them. Though, it was kind of sad that Justin had sex with her mother more times than her yet he never said anything about it.
Even though he was starting a chain of little white lies, he still loved Tiffany with all of his heart. They spent the night together, celebrating a new year. He wondered if Vinnie had any luck with Kyanna? Hopefully, he could get someone as loving as Tiffany in his life.
It was an amazing night, that's for sure. The new year was here and new things would be happening.
