Chapter 14: Happy News Year

"Ah it's almost time!" Sakuno said looking at the time.

Ryoma nodded his head and wrapped his arms around his wife's waist. Sakuno looked up and smiled. "Ne, do you remember when we first dated and it was New Years?"
Ryoma chuckled and nuzzled her with his nose. "I remember." He said with a husky voice.

Flash Back

Sakuno fidgeted in her kimono waiting for Ryoma. She breathed warm air into her hands to keep them from being numb. "Yo." He said.

Sakuno looked up and smiled. Her face was already cold and her nose red. "Good evening." Sakuno said.

"Did I make you wait long?" Ryoma asked breathing out cold puffs of condensed air.

She shook her head with a smile. "Not at all."
Ryoma nodded his head and took her cold hands. "Liar." He said.

Sakuno blushed. Ryoma sighed and leaned his forehead against her's and their noses touching slightly. His warmth flowed into hers. Sakuno blushed. "What are you doing?" She asked flustered but without moving.

"Keeping you warm." He said.

The gongs began to ring and everyone began to cheer. Ryoma looked up and smiled. "Happy New Year."

Sakuno nodded her head. "Happy New Year."
Ryoma smiled and leaned down. Sakuno smiled and closed her eyes. Their lips locked and the gong resonated within them.

Back to the Present

Sakuno looked up into Ryoma's eyes and smiled. "I love you." Sakuno whispered.

"I love you too. May we have another happy year."
Sakuno nodded her head. "May we have yet another memory filled year."
The gong sounded. Ryoma leaned and locked lips with his wife.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
