It was nearly midnight. The silence of the sea was pieced by muffled music and laughter, the typical sounds of a party, and lights lit up the dark beach in a bright glow.
The stars twinkled brightly in the clear moonlit sky, the silvery light beaming onto the sea below.
Four mers crowded around a large cluster of rocks revealed to the crisp evening air by the evening tide.
Food and drinks were carefully placed onto flatter rocks, most of it already eaten without a crumb left behind.
"It's beautiful tonight," Finn said softly, gazing briefly at the ocean before turning to focus on his partners, violet eyes gleaming intensely. "But not as beautiful of the three of you."
He leaned forward and gave each of them a gentle kiss on the lips, laughing quietly when Azul's face flushed a dark shade of blue.
The kisses were, as all benevolent acts, repaid in kind while tails and tentacles coiled and twisted lovingly around each other into an almost knot under the water.
Azul's blush was much darker, and became even more so as both twins kissed him as well, muttering to himself before returning the favour.
After a few moments, Azul pulled away with a huff, then sighed softly to himself and looked down into the water.
There was a moment of silence before he lifted his head again to find the other three looking at him curiously, waiting for him to say what was clearly on his mind.
Azul cleared his throat and let out a breath.
"This year has gone by impossibly fast," He began, staring into his partners' eyes. "It feels just yesterday we were getting ready for the new year. But, despite a few... hiccups, it was incredibly profitable. More importantly though,"
His voice and gaze softened slightly, an unplaceable emotion shining in his eyes. "My... my overblot caused me to evaluate a lot of things. One of those things was you. I don't think I appreciated you enough and... I'm so grateful to spend my years with you, and I hope we experience many more together."
Azul fell silent, unsure of what else to say. It was rare for him to be so quiet, but the feeling of his tentacles tightening around thm and his hands gripping theirs said enough.
He chewed his lip and a nervous pit formed in his stomach as the other three observed him silently for a minute or so.
"Heh." A knowing smile stretched across Floyd's face. "Love you, too 'Zul. I could spend forever with ya."
"You won't ever stop being interesting to us," Jade murmured, cupping Azul's face. "You truly are amazing."
"Don't ever forget it, love." Finn added, gently bumping their foreheads together.
"I-" Azul opened his mouth before closing it again and nodding silently with an almost relieved smile.
Their moment of tenderness was interupted by a sudden cry on the crowded beach nearby, indicating the start of the countdown.
The four shifted to observe the beach, Finn tapping each of his ears with his pen to block out the noise.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one-"
"Happy New year!" The quartet joined in, looking upwards to watch the fireworks explode across the sky in a blast of colour and light.
They all stared in awe for a few minutes, moving even closer together.
Jade broke the quiet , raising his glass with a grin and the others did the same
"To another year. Together."
