Dedicated to: Brazil-chan

It was December 31st and you were at the Nordic household for a New Year's Eve party.

"_____! Where are the party hats!?" Your boyfriend Mathias called from the kitchen.

"Um, I think they're on the staircase." You yell back as you hang up the ribbon. Your parties for New Year's weren't really that big, but you did like to decorate a little bit. After all it was just the Nordics and the Germanics that were invited.

Iceland walked down the stairs. "I'll see you guys later. I'm spending the weekend with Kaoru."

"Have fun." You smiled.

He smiled back. As something was thrown at him from the upstairs balcony. "Protection!" Lucas shouted.

Emil looked at the box, and blushed a bright red. Then threw it back at his older brother, shouting. "Could you stop embarrassing me!?"

"Emil, and Kaoru sitting in a tree, K, I, S, S, I, N, G!" Mathias sang loudly from the kitchen. Making the fair skinned nation blush harder.

"Don't worry about them." You tell him. "At least have a nice kiss at midnight, for good luck in the new year."

He smiled sincerely. "You too."

"I'm sure I will. Though Mathias probably won't remember it again. He'll be too drunk... Again."

"Just take away his beer."

You laughed. "Unfortunately he's already started drinking."

"Well, good luck with that." He chuckled leaving the house.

You step back from the decorations to admire your work. The living room actually looked really good. You set your hands on your hips looking around. "Will Berwald and Tino be back with the rest of the food soon?!" You shout through the house.

"They should be." Norway replied.

That's when Denmark jumped behind you and wrapped his arms around you in hug. "Maybe we can have those condoms Emil threw back at Norge, and we can bang first thing in the new year."

"Yeah right, you'll be too drunk!" You said pushing him off.

"That's why I'm giving my consent in advance." He said matter of factly.

You laughed. "Sorry doesn't count. If you want it. You'll have to be, at least, mostly sober."

"AWWWWW!" He whined. "But it's a party!"

"Well, it's your choice." You started plainly.

He grumbled to himself as he went back to the kitchen.

"We're back!" You heard Tino say entering the house.

"Ah, perfect!" You say clasping you hands together. "Ber, Tino, Mathias is almost finished setting up the food we already have so if you just give him the new stuff. Then one of you can help me decorate the backyard and the other can help Lucas with picking music."

"Okey-dokey!" Finland said walking into the kitchen, with Sweden following close behind.

You sat down on the sofa your arms hurt from hanging all the decorations thus far.

~~~

"Hei! Here's the rest of the food!" Finland said as he set the grocery bags on the table.

"NNGGHHH!!" Denmark groaned pulling at his hair. "I just finished! This will take forever!"

"Then you better get started." Sweden remarked. "I'm going to help _____ with the decorations. Is it ok if you help Lucas with the music?"

"Oh sure, no problem." Tino responded.

Denmark started taking the food out of their bags.

"You know Den, it'd mean a lot to _____ if you were at least sober enough to remember most of the night." Tino said as he walked upstairs.

Mathias groaned like a child who wasn't getting their way. He looked at his half empty beer bottle and groaned again.

~~~

"I'm going to help with the decorations." Berwald said standing over you. You sprung up from the sofa, and grabbed the party decorations from off the stairs and started towards the back door. "Could you grab the step ladder please?"

He hummed in response, picking up the ladder and following you.

~(time skip)~

"Thank you Berwald. With you being so tall, it helped out a whole lot!" You giggled.

He gave a small smile.

"Now just one more thing!" You exclaimed.

You placed the step ladder next to the tall nation, and climbed to one of the top rungs and placed a party hat on the Swede. Then one upon your own head. "There!" You said before jumping off the ladder. "Let's see what everyone else is up to!" You say trotting back into the house.

"Hey Den, how's things coming along?" You asked your boyfriend.

"Almost done."

"Want some help?"

"Uh, I think I got it." He said stacking some cheese cubes.

Then a loud crash came from upstairs.

"I'll go see what that was." Berwald said walking up the stairs to investigate.

You scooted over to the Dane grabbing some of the completed trays of food, and placing them on the island. "The rest of the guests should be arriving soon. Did you save any beer for them?" You joked giving him a kiss on the cheek and leaving the room. "Though it really doesn't matter, Gil and Ludwig will be bringing more."

"Actually I only finished the one from earlier!" He called though he knew you probably didn't hear him.

~(another timeskip)~

Everyone started arriving around 8:00 and like you thought, Germany and Prussia brought more beer for everyone. Bavaria was carrying two kegs.

"Whoa, Theodo! That's... A lot."

He laughed. "Not nearly enough if you ask me."

You knew the German state could put away a lot... but man!

"Where's Gisil, and Ghristoph?" You asked.

"They said they'd be coming a little later." Ludwig replied, helping set up the Alcohol.

"Hey! Nice! This is even more than you brought last year!" Denmark said looking at the kegs.

"Yeah, because we weren't drunk enough last year." Lucas said filling up a full glass of beer for himself, before taking a swig.

"Actually Theodo, one of those kegs can go outside." You said leading him to the back yard.

Once you were out of earshot Denmark turned to Lukas. "Hey dude, you can't let me get to drunk tonight."

Que Prussia spitting out his mouthful of beer. "What!? Why!?"

Lukas smiled. "Yeah why?"

"_____, she said that we can't have sex unless I was mostly sober."

Que Germany spitting out his mouthful of beer.

"Well, I can help out until I'm pretty drunk myself." Lukas said shrugging. "Then you're on your own."

"You could ask Roderick he's going to be a designated driver for those who want to go home tonight." Prussia suggested.

Denmark thought about it. Roderick didn't really have an adamant personality so, it was likely he could be at least somewhat buzzed by the end of the night. Which is something that he wouldn't particularly upset about. By the very least he would remember most of the night, which would make _____ really happy.

"Alright!" He exclaimed bouncing out of the kitchen.

Within the hour Saxony, Hesse, and Switzerland showed up with a few more six packs, and by the looks of it Hessie had already started drinking.

"Ghristoph, how much did you already have to drink?" You ask inviting them in.

"Only like four beers, barely anything." He shrugged off.

You rolled your eyes. Boy did these guys love to drink or what? Sometimes you almost forgot just how much alcohol they could put away.

"Vash, where's Lilli spending New Years?" You ask the Swiss country.

"Ah, Julian, Roderick's boy, asked her if she wanted to spend it with his micronation friends." He replied.

"Aw, that was nice of him." You say helping them bring their stuff (beer) into the kitchen. When the doorbell rang again.

"I got it!" Mathias shouted running towards the front door. "Hey!" He greeted swinging the door open wide. In walked the last two guests. Austria and Hungary.

"Hi Mathias."

"Hey Liz! Your other boyfriend is already here, in the backyard."

"Thanks!" She said walking in the direction of the back door.

"Hey Roderick! I need to ask you a favor!"

"If you must." He replied unenthusiastically.

"I need you to help me from getting to hammered tonight."

Austria almost fell over. "What!? Are you being fully serious!?"

"Yes." Mathias affirmed.

"Alright." He said continuing threw the hallway towards the backyard.

~(mini timeskip)~

The party had finally started going, and the music was set on track.

Mathias reached for his third beer of the party and popped off the tab, and was just about to take a nice gulp, when-. "I don't think so."

"Roderick!" Mathias exclaimed.

"You told me to keep you from drinking. So I am." He said taking a sip of the beer he just stole.

"I said keep me from getting drunk. Not keep me from drinking entirely. Besides army you the designated driver!?"

"The best way of keeping you from getting drunk is to keep you from drinking at all. And I'm allowed to drink one beer. It is a party after all."

"AAAGHH!!" He yelled before, taking a deep breath, to calm himself down. "I'm doing this because I love _____, and I want to see her happy." He told himself.

He ended up walking over to you. "Hey you wanna dance?"

"Sure." You responded with a giggle as you walked hand and hand to the center of the backyard. As Fall Out Boy's song 'Alone Together' played.

"It's almost 10:00 and your cheeks are barely flushed." You mention as you danced.

"I'm staying as sober as possible." He stated. "And on that topic. It seems your cheeks are a little pink."

You laughed. "Yeah just a bit buzzed myself. I think I'm good for now though."

"Come on don't you get drunk on me." He sighed.

"Haha, I won't." You told him. "I'm looking forward to tonight." You said as you continued dancing.

Mathias smiled.

Soon though the song ended and the rest of the party's festivities continued.

Mathias snuck into the kitchen to get himself a beer. He was really doing well and thought he deserved one.

But before he could open the bottle, Norway swooped in and grabbed it. "I don't think so." He said pink in the face himself.

"Come on just one! Roderick has been up my butt all night, and I've barely had anything!"

Lucas shook his head. "Too bad. Now get outside before I tell Roderick where you are."

Denmark shuddered and ran back outside grabbing one of the few colas they had.

"Hey Mathias!" Saxony said almost slurred.

"Hey Gisil."

"Want to race to see who can drink a pint the fastest!?"

"Sorry, I can't. I can't get too drunk."

"Suit yourself." Gisil said walking away.

Midnight surely came slower when sober. Denmark thought to himself.

~(timeskip)~

After Austria stole at least 15 more beers from Mathias he finally had an idea.

He took an empty soda can and started to fill it with beer from the keg in the kitchen, and returned to the backyard.

Three sips into his clever devised plan, Roderick came over with his arm outstretched.

"What? It's only soda." The Dane responded.

"Yeah right, give it here."

Denmark defeatedly forked over his disguised beverage to Austria. Who in turned dumped it into the ground. Making Denmark practically whimpered like a kicked puppy.

"The last thing I want right now is another drunken fool."

Austria was right. Denmark looked around and noticed almost everyone had turned into a loud drunken idiot, but he still wished to join them.

"Besides," Austria started. "There's only a minuet left till midnight. I advise you find _____ for your New Year's kiss."

The Dane's eyes widened, scrambling to find you.

As soon as he did he grabbed you up and held you bridal style.

"Oh! Hi!" You laughed. "It's the final moments of the old year?" You asked.

"Yep!"

Then everyone started counting down.

"20"
"19"
"18"
"17"

"I'm so glad I got to spend another year with you!" Denmark said sincerely.

"16"
"15"
"14"

"Me too." You replied holding his face in your hands.

"13"
"12"
"11"
"10"
"9"

"I love you." You told him

"8"
"7"
"6"

"I love you too."

"5"
"4"
"3"
"2"
"1"

"HAPPY NEW YEAR!" Everyone cheered as you and your boyfriend kissed under the light of the moon.
