The Ultra Long Kenshin Fic Chapter 10: Party

The Kenshin group was eating in the dining room on New Year's Eve, there was a large selection of foods layed out, from the Akebeko of course. Tae and Subame were also there. Yahiko was fighting over the shrimp with Sano, Esano was eating quietly, for some reason. Kaoru looked sadly towards him, Kenshin caught this and smiled at her. She turned to him and smiled back.

"What are we going to do tonight before midnight?" Megumi asked, smirking. Sano smiled.

"Well, I know what we're doing," he said, jokingly. Megumi blushed. Kaoru also blushed, looking at Kenshin. "But we should have another drinking contest, me and Kenshin," Sano suggested. Kenshin remembered the first one that they had and smiled.

"Good idea. Maybe this time I'll beat you," he replied, laughing. Kaoru was glad to see the Kenshin was happy again, or atleast he seemed to be. Sano laughed. Esano also started laughing, but it was because he had a little too much to drink already.

"Can I join in too? I want to beat my brother. I'm better than him anyways," Esano muttered, slurring some of the words together. He pourred more sake into his glass.

"I think you've had too much already," Yahiko said. They laughed.

"I will also have to join you," a familiar voice sounded from outside the door. Misao and Aoshi came in, and were smiling. (Aoshi smiling... wow... okay, back to the story! lol)

"Well, this is a surprise. Welcome," Kaoru said, smiling. Most of the food was already gone, so they just got leftovers.

It was now an hour before midnight, and Kenshin and Sano were getting ready to drink. Esano also had a few bottles next to him, but was ready to fall over. Aoshi also got ready. Kaoru dropped her hand and they started, Sano was really knocking them back and so was Kenshin. Esano fell over after the first bottle. Misao laughed furiously at him. A half an hour past and finally Kenshin gave out. Aoshi and Sano were now left. Kenshin was able to stay awake until surprisingly, Aoshi could not keep going. He put his last bottle down and swayed back and forth and then fell over. Sano laughed and then fell on his stomach.

It was soon close to midnight, and everyone outside started to chant down. (I don't know exactly how they told time. Hehe) Everyone said one and cheered. Sano kissed Megumi, Kenshin to Kaoru, of course. Surprisingly Esano kissed Tae, Yahiko kissed Subame, and Aoshi kissed Misao on the cheek. (Still too young for Aoshi.)

"Happy New Year," Kenshin said to Kaoru. She smiled and hugged him.

Lina: Hehe. I hope u liked. I know, it's kind of dumb. But I wanted Aoshi to lose the drinking contest this time. hehe.

Aoshi: But I'm the best fighter!

Lina: Yes, we know! and the hottest. lol okay, until next time! review! ja ne!
