Momo's POV.
I didn't expect them to drink that much, to be honest. When I left the hideout to buy some more snacks they were practically sober, but when I came back it was a disaster. I wasn't really ticked off about it, I actually enjoyed the fact that they all had fun that night. But what surprised me was that Kido, Seto, and Kano were drunk, as well as onii-chan and Marry. Marry really surprised me. Not to anyone's surprise, the alcohol didn't affect Konoha due to his android-ish body, apparently.
Why were we celebrating? It was New Years. The best celebration of the year, to my opinion. Why? Well, celebrating with friends while drinking hot cocoa and laugh. I never had that before I met these lovely people. This hideout. Probably the most fun place I've been to. After all, it has been 3 years.
I returned to the hideout with the snacks, and there they go all cheering in delight. I set out the snacks on the kitchen counter, but before I could finish Konoha chowed down on the first thing I placed, which were normal chips... When I finished, I poured myself a cup of beer and walked to the couch. I didn't intend on drinking too much. If I drink, it will cause a horrible disaster if you think about it.
"Obaa-san..." I jumped to someone calling my name. It was Hibiya standing beside me, with his eyes partly covered by his bangs.
"Eh? What is it?" I asked. I thought something happened or someone got hurt when I was gone.
"No... Momo," he corrected himself. It made me blush a little, he never called me that before. He never called me by my last or first name. For these 3 years I've known him, it was a surprise.
"W-what is it? You never called me by my first name before." I started gulping down a sip of my beer.
He took a deep breath and told me with pride written all over his forehead. "When I grow up... I WILL marry you!" I almost choked on my drink. My face flushed, I could feel it. It was irritating...yet... nice?Meanwhile, I stared at the boy in shock. thinking I misheard something, but he said it quite loud enough for me clearly. And he looked drop dead serious.
"E-eh?! Hibiya?! What are you saying?! How much did you drink?!"
"When I grow up, I WILL marry you!" and he left my sight before I could reply another time. I guessed I heard everything right. I was in shock with a face as red as a poppy and couldn't believe what I heard just then.
The next day, morning, we were cleaning the place up. Hibiya was collecting the tin cans from the place and threw them into a trash bag he held in his other hand. He didn't seem to remember anything.
Mary and I were collecting the food leftovers and bits from around the living room. She was also probably the most sober out of them all apart from Konoha and could have remembered some moments. That could've been my chance to ask about Hibiya.
"H-hey, Mary?"
"Huh? Yes, Momo?" She looked confused, probably at the way I stuttered a little.
"How much did...did Hibiya drink last night?" I felt my cheeks heating up slightly and tried to cover it with my palms. Hoping that he was just drunk, yet hoping he didn't. He was only 15, after all. Bad for health, son.
"Eh? Hibiya? He didn't drink at all." What.
My organs flipped upside down. Panic rolled all over my body with bits of shock mixed with.. happiness?
I slowly tilted my head towards Hibiya, hoping he didn't hear our conversation. I was wrong. There he was... smiling.
