New Year’s Eve - Nessian

Here is part two of your present this year Sim @perseusannabeth. Sorry it’s so late, but I had some family things that happened on new years, and then moving for school, that I just wasn’t really in a writing mood. But I finally finished so I hope you love it!! It’s a Nessian fic, so I hope you really enjoy it!!

8:00 am, December 31, 2020

Nesta Archeron woke up with a start as her alarm clock blared in her ears. She was in no hurry to get up, instead choosing to lie in bed for some extra minutes, and warmth, had it not been for the insistent pounding on her door. Nesta threw off her comforter, and pulled on her Harvard Alumni sweatshirt, before pulling her hair into a messy bun and making her way to the door of her one bedroom apartment..

“Nesta!” The familiar voice calling through the door made Nesta smile, even if she did have to leave the warmth of her bed.

Nesta opened the door to find her best friend standing there, with a warm latte in one hand, and a bagel bag in the other. Of course, Cassian would know the exact things to get her out of bed and ready for the morning.

“Cassian, you do realize that it’s eight o’clock in the morning, and that not everybody has to work on New Year’s Eve?” Cassian only grinned, and held up the coffee cup, before pushing through the door and into Nesta’s morning.

1:30 pm, December 31, 2020

“Feyre, calm down… No, there is no reason to worry… Yes, your party is going to be fine. I’m bringing the alcohol, and Elain has the pizza pick up. Remember, there’s only gonna be the eight of us… Yes, nine if Mor brings her girlfriend. Oh wait, isn’t Amren going to Varian’s?... Okay, I’ve gotta go. Cass is banging on my door, again. Love you, bye.”

Nesta sighed as she finally disconnected the call with her sister. Feyre and her husband Rhys were hosting their annual New Year’s Eve get together this year, and Nesta’s little sister was stressing, hardcore. Nesta didn’t know why though, considering the pair had been hosting every year since they had gotten together.

A crash as something, or someone, heavy barged through the door. “Cassian! What the fuck? Did you just break my door?”

“Wouldn’t that be funny,” he laughed, his amber eyes shining. “But no. I did not. I did bring you a gift, however.” Cassian held up a small package in his hands, wrapped nicely with a red bow.

“A Christmas present. Cass, it’s New Years, not Christmas. Plus, you already gave me that.”

“What, I can’t give my best friend a present on New Year’s too? C’mon Nes, you know you want it.” Nesta grinned and grabbed the package out of his hands. She greedily ripped open the package, only to find the most unexpected object inside.

“A dildo?!” she asked incredulously, throwing the box on the counter as Cassian roared with laughter.

“Thought you would appreciate that,” Cass said between breaths, leaning onto the table to support himself.

“Yeah, real appreciation.” Turning towards her room, Nesta didn’t fight to hide the smile showing on her face, both at the absurdity of the gift, and at her best friend's utter recklessness. This was certainly turning out to be an interesting New Years.

4:30 pm, December 31, 2020

Nesta jumped a little at the site of Cassian laying on her couch, beer in one hand, book in the other. Of course she knew that he had stayed while she had gotten ready for Feyre’s party, but to find him reading, let alone it being the romance novel that she had kept on the table. Certainly was a surprise.

“Can we go yet?” Cassian groaned, getting up from his position, and placing the book back on the coffee table, cover side up, showing Nesta’s current favorite book, The Roommates.

“Yes, you oaf. Let’s go.” Cassian jumped up from the couch and rushed to the door, before remembering that he should let Nesta leave first. Ever the gentleman, she thought, a small smirk on her face.

It didn’t take long for the pair to reach Feyre and Rhys’ home, and Cassian was wearing a shit-eating grin as he waited for his brother-from-another-mother to open the door (as he liked to call Rhys and Azriel). Of course, with alcohol involved, the three would most likely be getting into a lot of trouble. It would be up to Nesta, Feyre, and Azriel’s girlfriend to keep them under control, at least until the new year.

The front door opened to a man, tan with violet eyes, a party hat on his head, which he promptly transferred to Nesta’s head. “Everyone’s here now, let's party!” Rhysand explained, pulling Cassian into the house, who grabbed Nesta’s arm and pulled her too.

It was a whirlwind of motion once Nesta and Cassian were already in the house, with Cass being pushed in the direction of the living room, and Az standing by the fireplace, nursing what appeared to be a whiskey, while Nesta was pulled from behind, into the kitchen, where all the women were sitting, gossiping over wine. From the looks of it, Feyre and Mor, the first to be here, were already on their second or third glass.

“Looks like I’ve got some catching up to do,” Nesta laughed, giving Elain a hug as she passed her, and then picking up her own wine glass. As Nesta was about to sit, she heard a roar from the living room, followed by what sounded like the word “present” in Cassian’s voice. “Bastard,” she muttered under her breath. At the stares she received from the women around her, Nesta went into the story of her New Year’s Eve gift from her idiotic best friend.

11:45 pm, December 31, 2020

Everyone was beginning to wind down now, watching as the Dick Clark New Year’s Eve show was awaiting the dropping of the ball. Feyre and Rhys were cuddling on a chair, whispering to each other, as were Mor and her girlfriend, Rita. Az was MIA, probably sleeping off the alcohol he’d dranken earlier due to his loss in beer pong. Elain was on the phone, probably talking to Lucien who was in the Army, and oversees. Meanwhile Nesta and Cassian were sitting on the couch, Nestas head resting on Cass’ shoulder as he hummed along to whatever song was playing on the tv.

Slowly the group watched the clock count down. Elain had gone off to wake Azriel up so that the group could celebrate together, and now they waited as the final minutes of 2020 came to a close.

Too tired to realize, Nesta didn’t notice the way Cass looked at her as she laid across his lap, the heat in his eyes. But as the clock reached one minute, Nesta began to imagine how it would feel to have Cassian’s lips on hers, wondering if he felt the same way about her.

11:59:10, December 31, 2020

“10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...Happy New Year!” The whole house erupted in celebration. Nesta was moved around in quick hugs, before finally finding herself face to face with Cassian.

“Happy New Year, Nes,” he said quietly, before closing the gap between them, his lips finding hers, in front of all their family and friends. Someone whistled, probably Rhys, before he was shushed and presumably pushed out of the room, if the tripping sound had anything to say.

Nesta breathed heavily when they finally parted, her cheeks reddening, but a smile upon her face. “Do you know how long I’ve waited to kiss you?” Cassian asked. Nesta just shook her head.

“Since the day I met you, when you pushed me out of your seat cause I was flirting with Feyre. “Nesta laughed, before pulling his face back to hers. Suddenly, she was excited about what the new year would bring.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everyone! (It is already in my country)

So, like you can guess, this is a new year's note - in which I wanted to thank each and every one of you guys!

Thank you all so much for the likes, rebloggs and follows.

If I would have the chance to, I would come through whatever screen you are looking at right now, and hug dear life out of all of you.

This year, as shitty and stressful it had been for nurses, doctors, bus drivers, teachers Kindergarteners' and students (you can imagine, the list goes on and on) was to me at least a good year.

Though I don’t want to talk down Covid at this point, but look at the bright side of it. Perhaps some of you have been able to write more due to the new free time or have found a new hobby, etc.,etc.

It had been a shit year, yes, but just think about it - I am not aware how much Tumblr means to all of you, but in the little time I used it, it made me feel more comfortable with myself.

I might have gone out of the house even lesser than I originally do, but all this kind feedback of you guys had me always giddy to write something new and I am thrilled to share my new chapters with all of you.

Also, I think some New year’s resolutions will be interesting for you guys:

1. I will correct ‘The life I once dreamed of’

Here on Tumblr, I have already prove read most of the Chapters I posted, but I haven’t on AO3, which is the reason why this is my very first New Year’s resolution - oh, I’ll also do my very best to upload the Chapters from AO3 here. It is quite a difference😅

2. There will be more chapters of ‘The chosen forest keeper’

I feel so sorry for all of you that sit there waiting for a new Chapter and it really pains my heart to know how little I have already accomplished of where I want to go with it. So, there will be definitely more updates of it in 2021.

3. I am taking prompts

There won’t be a prompt list, perhaps I’ll upload one in July but I am not sure about it. If you guys have a prompt in mind that could be cute for Elriel - feel free to send it in and I’ll do my best to work on it as soon as I read it.

4. There will be a writing break from May to July!

I know, it is contractionary to all my points above, but I will write as much as I can till May, after that there might be some smaller chapters, but it is my final year of school so I am having exams coming up. I know there are many authors here that can do both, write and study, but I don’t want to mess things up. I tend to work long into the night and I don’t want to accidently post my Biology essay or something or write some gibberish about math in my fanfics.

I hope you understand that.

I know I am rambling at this point, but I want to explain my situation as best as I can to you (damn were that many ‘I’s😅) So, I will use this break mostly for studying, but the break will also allow me to spend more time with looking at flats. Because I will be in the need to move for my apprenticeship and until now everything I got were ‘No’s. So please understand that.

And again, all I can say, thank you guys for sticking till now with me!

You all don’t know how happy I have been to have the first feedback from one of you and it really let’s my heart bloom that you liked my fic’s already when my English was still pretty bad.

I am just thinking of the first chapters from ‘The life I once dreamed of’, boy had it been prickling in my fingers to take at least the first six chapters down and write anew. But I won’t do that, because I think then I will never finish it, so prove reading has to do😅

Also, I just wanted to say thank you to @ladynestaarcheron for organising the secret snowflake project. I absolutely had my fun during the project and the hundreds of drafts I had really helped to improve my writing skills.

So, it was through and through a success. Also, I am happy you liked your gifts @autophobiaxx😊 and since we are already at gifts – I just have to thank you again my lovely snowflake @darlinminds. I just loved your gift and I am a complete puddle of goo for it.

And keep in mind 2020 had been a shitty year, but 2021 can only get better! (And I don’t want to hear you pessimist, like my entire family, say now ‘But it can!’ - perhaps think of the little success you can make through the year)

And for last (I swear this is my last point!) I want to thank:

@thefangirlofhp, @tswaney17, @verifiefangirl , @elriel-incorrect-quotes, @rhysanoodle, @julesherondalex, @theshadowsinger-and-thefawn, @chococannolii, @elriel-oblivion and all of you amazing other people out there that have been publishing elriel content! (from incorrect quotes to theories and drawings and fic’s)

I swear all of your cute fluffy, heartbreakingly angsty, funny and smutty fics have made my goddamn year! I always love to see notifications of you on my feed and I couldn’t help myself as to include this in the note (I am so sorry if my rambling annoyed you at this point) Also @ncssians I am thrilled beyond believe to read about the Acotar characters as gods!

Happy new year and a splendid 2021 everyone!

And for those who are interested here is a little snippet of ‘The chosen forest keeper’ Seed three: The sun arose each day with your smile, now darkness shall claim me :

Vomit dreaded to spill from her rosy lips as she saw the red liquid. Fersia, as well as the other three females looking unbothered at the display of shed blood.

Whose blood was it?

Was all Goldenrod could question herself, as Fersia spoke to the female on the throne of nightmares and fire. Bloodred painted lips moving as she answered the wish of the forest green eyed female, that bowed her head in respect. Tugging lightly at Goldenrods white sleeve, but she couldn’t move.

Couldn’t do anything as she stared at the deep, red puddle.

“Who are you?” echoed a mighty voice through the grand hall. Vibrating even in the farthest corner of the room as her blazing blood red eyes assessed her visitor, that stood with a shaking body and sweat covered skin in her throne room.

#Happy new year #new year's resolutions #a lot of health #thank you all #snippet #my writing #The chosen forest keeper #sorry for the lack of chapters #love you all
