Previously:

Tae nodded scribbling fast to get every thing down. She smiled and walked off to get the orders filled.

"Tsubame will be your waitress. She should be here shortly to take your orders. And don't hesitate to call if anything isn't to your liking. Tata!" Tae recited as she turned to wait on another table.

Chapter 9

New Year Kisses. Awwwww!

"Hello. I am Tsubame, and I will be your waitress this evening. How may I assist you?" A young girl around 16 quoted. She had short brown hair and was wearing the waiter/waitress uniform of tan slacks and a black T-shirt with the Akabeko logo and she had a nametag.

"Yeah, I know I'll have the Sukiyaki." Kenshin said licking his lips while looking at the picture.

" I'll have some..OH YUM! Chicken Tatsuta!" Ayomi squealed in delight at finding that they made her favorite.

Kaoru happily ordered, "I would like the Ohagi and Una-don specialty, please!"

(AN: Yes, I looked up Japanese dishes. But hey! They can't all have ohagi, sushi, and rice balls, which were all I the Japanese food I knew of at the time!)

Megumi said, "Yeah, I'll have some sushi and namasu."

"Shesh, Megumi. Going all-out, aren't you?" Sano joked. "I think I will take Shoyu Ramen and some Niku-itame."

"I'll have Osechi-ryori. That sound good and it's festive. You know, cause it is New Years Eve?" Misao said happily.

"I'll have the same." Aoshi glanced up.

"And I'll have Goma-ae." Enishi said.

(AN: I think I got everyone. b that was hard and long to type!)

Tsubame scribbled all of the orders down trying to keep up with all of them. She nodded and scurried off to the kitchen.

20 minutes later 20 minutes later 20 minutes later 20 minutes later 20 minutes later

Everyone was talking and enjoying their food. Kaoru snatched a piece of Kenshin's sukiyaki with her chopsticks playfully.

"Hey! That's mine!" Kenshin laughed as Kaoru stuck her tongue out and ate the beef. Kenshin snatched a piece of her una-don and ate it as payback.

Everyone was enjoying themselves. After about 45 minutes their plates and/or pots were empty.

"Mmmmmm! That was SO good!" Misao chirped. Everyone nodded in agreement.

Tsubame came and took all of their dished away. She then came back and asked if they wanted any desserts.

"YEAH!" They all cheered.

Tsubame laughed and asked what they wanted.

(AN: Here we go again! sigh )

"I'll have a fudge brownie mud-slide." Aoshi answered. (AN: Mmmmmm…My favorite! Good choice Aoshi!)

"Us too." Misao, Kaoru, Kenshin, and Ayomi agreed.

"I'll have a Hershey's fudge chocolate ice cream pie." Sano said. (AN: Also my favorite!)

"We'll have a chocolate silk pie." Ayomi and Enishi ordered.

"And I will have a small slice of carrot cake." Megumi said while looking at her reflection in her powder compact. (AN: YUCK!)

Soon after ordering, the group indulged themselves once again. After about 20 more minutes they split the bill and got up to leave.

They were standing outside of The Akabeko talking.

"Well, we'd better be going. I have a surprise for you, Ayomi." Enishi said.

With that the couples said good night to their friends and went their separate ways.

With Kenshin And Kaoru:

"I was wondering if you wanted to stay over at my house tonight and watch movies; you know, have a movie night?" Kenshin asked Kaoru as they were driving around. Kaoru looked at the car clock and it read 11:00. (AN: Forgive me if my math is off. If you want you can add up the times and figure it out.)

"Sure! But we have to stop by my house and get my pj's!" She decided.

Kenshin laughed and pulled up in her apartment building parking levels. (AN: She lives in one of those apartment buildings that have parking levels.)

After Kaoru got her pajama's they went and got two movies. Kaoru picked out The Secret Window. Kenshin never saw it and was a little reluctlent but Kaoru convinced him.

Kenshin decided two could play that game so he picked out a scary movie because Kaoru didn't like scary movies. He showed her the cover and she went pale.

"You know I can't watch scary movies. I get too scared!" She whined.

"Don't worry! I'll be there to protect you! Please!" Kenshin gave a puppy pout and big puppy eyes.

"Fine! We'll watch Darkness!" Kaoru gave in.

It was 11: 45 when they got to Kenshin's mansion. Kaoru gasped. She never knew how big it was.

"Hurry! We wanna watch the countdown before we watch the movies!" Kenshin said running inside.

They got inside and Kenshin turned on the TV while jumping on the couch. Kaoru followed in suit.

"5! 4! 3! 2!" They cheered. Right as the timer on the TV hit one Kenshin jumped over and kissed Kaoru on the lips. It started as a simple one but Kaoru deepened it.

They broke apart and screamed into the air, "HAPPY NEW YEAR!"

WELL? HOPE YOU LIKED! REVIEW PLEASE!
