Free walked in nervously. He was not exactly a big fan of crowds. In fact, most crowds were terrified of him. How would things be better here? He should have never come to the party at all. He was wearing a tux and a fedora that covered his head. (Blair had insisted that at least he wear a hat. Apparently it made him look...sexy) "Happy new year everyone." he said with a tiny nervous glance

The dance was finally over soon, and Soul smiled at her.
"Nice. How'd you think I did?" he asked her

"Pretty well for a music nerd," Maka teased.
She'd actually had a fun time dancing with Soul. Unlike at the DWMA dance where he'd shoved her off to dance with her dad. She laughed lightly and dropped her hands to her sides taking a step back.

Hanna looked at his watch and freaked out. 50 seconds to midnight. 'Oh god, Maka,' he thought, looking at her and hoping she could hear him, 'please don't leave me alone at midnight.'

Maka smiled at Soul and looked around for Hanna. She motioned the red head over. Maka was completely unaware of the time or even what the american tradition for New Year was. It seemed important to Hanna though.

Hanna walked over and bashfully smiled. 30 seconds to midnight. "You ready for the new year, guys?" He sorta was nervous. He never had a new year's kiss before.

"Yeah," Maka said, "Though I'm not sure why its such a big deal."
She looked from Hanna to Soul and back again. She smiled lightly at the two.

"Well, I mean, a new year means a new start, right?" Hanna smiled, looking at Soul, meaning about his friendship with the weapon to make Maka feel a little better. Then he snuck in a whisper, "Plus there's the tradition of the kissing of someone you want to be with that year at midnight...."

"Right, and there's the tradition of the New Year's Resolution. Ya know, coming up with something you wanna change this year." Soul remembered. New Year's WAS a good time to try and make friends with Hanna.

Maka was slightly conused at the two traditions, "Wait, why whould you have to kiss someone you want to be with? As for a resolution...what is that?"

Hanna turned to Soul and smiled, sticking out his hand for a handshake, "My resolution is to get to know you a little better and try to be your friend." Hanna was being completely earnest.

"It's like...well like a self promise. You just tell yourself you'll do something, maybe tell a few others. Then you do it over the course of the year." Soul explained as he noticed Hanna looking to make friends again "Yeah, like making friends is an example."

"As for the kiss, it's just an old wives tale that if you kiss someone at midnight on the new year, you will be together in happiness all year long," Hanna explained to Maka over his shoulder.

"Oh," Maka said quietly. She smiled at the fact Hanna was trying to be friends with Soul. She still wasn't to sure about the kissing one though. Maybe that's why her mom and dad where never happy together. They didn't know about the tradition.

"So what do you say, man?" Hanna turned back to Soul, hand still out for a shake, "Wanna help me with my resolution this year?" Hopefully he would. 15 seconds to midnight. The countdown would start soon.
