Apocalypse

Chapter 9

~New Years eve~

Me, Ciara and Daniel haven't actually left the house since the 23rd, as we decided we would start our 'journey' on the 2nd of November so we can celebrate a normal New Year's Eve.
We have decided a bottle of wine, a board game and music will do for a celebration.
I'm currently winning the game and Daniel (who we now call Dan) is sulking because of the loud music coming from next door,

"They're ruining my surprise!" He shouts in a sulk, he's always been champion sulker.

"Shut up Mister! Should be grateful we haven't thrown you out onto the streets for being such a kill-joy!" I laugh but that is a mistake, Dan throws his counter on to the board and stomps off to sit in my bedroom.

I roll my eyes at Ciara who laughs and we start dancing round the living room singing along to the song that just came on.
Dan appears in the door way still sulking

"Come here." He says, "both of you." Both Me and Ciara, skip over to him, slightly drunken and wobbly from the bottle of wine, then when the clock hits midnight, we scream with exitedness and Dan presses a button sending hundreds of balloons sailing down from the ceiling, me and Ciara scream and again and make a group hug.
