Chapter 207: New Year Special 3 Chapter 207: New Year Special 3 Micheal…
It was an hour to midnight, which marked New Year’s Day, but Alice was alone, sitting by the river on a lover’s bridge.
She didn’t know who to call or what to do.
She was just waiting for the time to go by and the new year to start already.
“Hah, it’s so cold.” She said out loud and looked up at the sky.
It wasn’t snowing but the weather was unbearably cold.
Leo was busy recharging since he had spent the entire week with her.
Maybe they should’ve thought it over before New Year’s Eve, but who knew this would happen at the last minute?
Mark had to leave for an emergency; Devon needed to spend New Year’s Eve with his brother and Micheal…
Well, even if she wanted him to be there, he was nowhere to be found.
She waited a bit longer, watching as the crowd gathered around the huge clock.
The countdown would start from there and then fireworks.
No one walked alone.
They were in the company of their friends, lovers, and family.
She sighed.
“What are you sighing so much about?” She heard Michael’s voice and turned her head around to find him sitting on the edge of the bridge.
“You…
What are you doing here?” She asked, startled.
Once again, she did not realize when he approached.
He just liked to do as he pleased, come and go like it was a child’s game.
“Well, I was just passing by when a particular someone caught my eye.” He said.
“So, what makes the lady sigh so wearily on this wonderful Eve?” “Well, it’s nothing big.” She said and before she knew it, he was sitting right next to her.
“Shouldn’t you be celebrating?
You humans have seen yet another year, right?” His choice of words was odd.
And even if she pitched him as a weirdo, this was a bit…
“Ah, did I let it slip?” He asked and she could tell he was smirking.
But then he brought out a slip from his inner pocket.
“I was rehearsing for a play I wanted to join, and thus, the effects are still there.” She still had her eyes squinted suspiciously at him but she decided to forget it.
There was no use prying into this guy’s business anyway.
“Would you like some company?” He asked.
Follow new episodes on the "N0vel1st.c0m".
“Well, I’m pretty sure that’s what you’re already doing.” She said and he let out a wry chuckle.
“In any case, let me erase your boredom with a little adventure.” He said and took her hand.
Even before she accepted his offer, he was already taking her up.
They both stood on the edge of the bridge and she asked, “Hey, isn’t this a bit dangerous?” “Hm?
And since when were you one to be scared of danger?” He asked, wrapped his arms around her waist, and fell backward.
She was startled by his sudden action and closed her eyes, bracing herself to hit the water but they did not.
Instead, they flew over the surface of the water.
“You’re so crazy.” She said to him but he laughed.
“Now, don’t be like that.
Look down.” He said and she looked at the water.
Ripples followed their fast-moving reflection, and if she could drop her hand just a bit, then…
Just a finger.
She slowly lowered her hand and with her index finger, touched the water.
“It’s ice cold.” She said, taking back her hand.
“That’s because it’s winter.
If you fall right now, you will freeze before you reach the bottom of the river.” He said and though it must’ve been a joke, it did not sound like a joke in the slightest.
He always managed to say things that made her so weary of him.
But still…
He was the only one who showed up for her, so it made her glad.
“5!” “Oh, do you hear that?” “4!” “They’ve started the countdown.” He said.
“3!” “I think it’s time we left here.” “2!” “Why?” She asked, clueless when he snapped his fingers and they were back to where they had set out from.
“1!
Happy New Year!” Above the water were showers of fireworks and then she realized why he said they had to leave there right away.
If they had stayed there, the fireworks would’ve exploded all over them.
“So, are you less bored now?” Michael asked, sitting on the edge again.
“Did that help?
They say when you take risks, your heart leaps and if that happens, you can’t be bored, right?” Ah, he just wanted to give her a thrill of excitement in his own way.
“Thank you, Micheal.” She hugged him.
“Oh?
What’s this?” “I just need a hug right now.” She said and he slowly dropped his hand on her head, stroking her hair back.
“Well, I suppose I could give you that.” He said.
“But there’s something I want,” he raised her chin.
“It is a tradition, so if you don’t mind…” She shook her head and he pulled his mask up a bit.
He leaned in and kissed her, while not letting his mask hinder their moment.
“Happy New Year, Micheal.” She said, smiling softly and Micheal watched her smile, his chest tightening in an unknown glee.
He could not understand it but he did not see it as a bad thing.
“Happy New Year, Alice Reinhart.” (Happy New Year To Everyone Here, Let’s Hope That Our Life Goals All Come True And Our New Year Resolutions Are Met) Authors note.
I hope everyone enjoyed Alice’s New Year’s plots with all four characters and if you didn’t, I’m terribly sorry.
You can drop your ideas in the comment section and I will try to work with it next time.
As for those who enjoyed it, I would’ve added a few more but as it stands, I feel like I’m dragging the chapters too much and want to get back to the story.
I will start a new side story arc later, and it’s going to be set in Medieval times with Alice as the spoiled princess, Adolf as the Emperor, Mark as the bodyguard, Devon the Duke, Micheal as the mage, and Leo as…
Well, I’m still working on that.
(I guess I could make him the god there too.
Hehe) If you have any ideas, be sure to let me know.
But I guess I won’t do that now since some readers will complain that I’m dragging it and delaying the main story.
So, I’ll make sure to get to a cliffhanger that’s so depressing, and, ahem, anyway, I’ll use the side story to uplift the mood.
Once again, Happy New Year.
I Love You All!
