Y/n is with her friends for New Years Eve but is sad that she won't have a news years kiss.
Our friend group were all gathered for New Year's Eve; Tom, Zendaya, Jacob, Harrison and Harry.
"Like I don't get how you can't say it!" Zendaya laughed. "It's croissant."
"Quackson. See! I said it!" Tom raised his voice in annoyance.
"YOU STILL SAID IT WRONG IDIOT." Jacob shouted and we all burst out laughing.
"Oh come on. Y/n, you're British. You say it like I do right?"
I wasn't actually listening. I had zoned out 10 minutes ago when the conversation first started. I felt a bit down because I didn't have anyone to kiss when it hits midnight. I know that's sad but last year I had a boyfriend and it was nice going into the year with someone. He cheated on me a month later so I guess it's not really a great example but this time of year just made me feel so lonely.
"Y/n?" Tom repeated.
"Mhm?" I snapped out of my daze.
"You alright love." He chuckled.
"Y-yeah sorry. What were you saying?" I smiled.
"Just about- you know what, don't worry about it. Can I talk to you in the kitchen?"
"Yeah sure." I smiled and followed him.
"What's going on y/n? And don't say 'nothing' cause I know somethings up." He said sternly but softly.
"Tom it's stupid I don't wanna talk about it." I looked down. I felt his finger hook under my chin and lift my head. My eyes connecting with his brown orbs that made me feel so calm.
"I don't care how stupid it is, tell me."
"Well, I know it sounds silly but I'm a bit sad that I don't have someone. Mainly because I'd like to be able to kiss someone at midnight but also just because I haven't dated someone in a while and things like New Years remind me- sorry I'm rambling on." I chuckled in embarrassment.
"Don't apologise. I understand. Your last boyfriend was a dick though so it's understandable you haven't dated."
"But I want to! I just, I guess I'm a little scared I'll get hurt again. But you know what, right now I just wish I had someone to kiss at midnight." I sighed.
"We all do love, none of us have got anyone either. You're not alone." He smiled. "Now come ere, I don't like seeing you upset." He brought me into a warming hug and we stood in each other's embrace for a while. I really did love him.

"Okay guys, it's almost 2022!" Harrison cheered.
"Right, everyone grab a party popper!" Z demanded.
We all grabbed one and stood around the clock, counting down the seconds.
"5, 4, 3, 2, 1, HAPPY NEW YEAR!" We all screamed and pulled our party poppers. We went around and hugged each other.
As I pulled away from hugging Tom, he placed his hand on my cheek and before I knew it, his lips were on mine. It took me by surprise but gradually I melted into it. The kiss was gentle but gradually deepened and became passionate. His lips were so soft and I felt like we moulded against each other.
It was bliss.
We reluctantly pulled away and he whispered "happy new year love"
Happy new year! I hope everyone has a great 2022!
