There was a knock at the door, so Terry excused himself from the others and got to the door a hair before Ben and Bob.

He stepped aside and allowed Ben to open the door, revealing Blaise.

"Mr. 'Laise! Hi! Did you get a kitty for Kwissmiss?" he asked, dancing. "Bob can take your coat, you know!"

Terry grinned at Blaise over Ben's head, and as soon as the little boy had disappeared with Blaise's coat, stepped back to let the othe wizard in.

"Happy New Year," he whispered. "I'm glad you could make it."

“No, I haven’t found one just yet.” Blaise answered to the quickly retreating child before stepping inside. He winced slightly at the sight of the dog and Ben trailing his coat across the floor. He’d been a little overwhelmed by the appearance of the excited bundle that had opened the door and hadn’t had chance to say no before his coat had been pulled from his arms.

With a final glance at the fate of his coat Blaise turned to Terry. “I told you I couldn’t resist you tipsy,” he replied with a half smile as he let his gaze roam down over Terry’s torso.

Terry watched Ben and Bob take off and smiled apologetically at Blaise. "I'm sorry. He's a bit excited about being host tonight. I'm sure your coat will be fine."

Terry grinned up at Blaise. "I haven't even had a drink yet," he said. "I'm no where near tipsy."

He wondered if he could sneak a kiss, but Ben and Bob came running back in the room and he didn't want to risk upsetting his son.

"So, can I get you anything?" he asked. "Or you can help yourself. The refreshments are in the kitchen."

Still wincing slightly, Blaise nodded his head, but waved Terry’s apologies off with an, “It’s okay.”

He looked around the room and casually noted the people that had already arrived. Other than Terry and Ben there was one child and three adults, but no one really of interest to Blaise yet. He spotted a corner that had a good view of the door where he could monitor arrivals, but still keep an eye on the rest of the main room.

“Well, that’s no good. You get such a delightful flush to your face when you’ve been drinking,” Blaise said with a smirk as he looked back at Terry. He dropped his voice and leant in slightly before he spoke again. “It reminds me of how you look when you come,” he continued, not risking touching the other man just yet. The room wasn’t crowded enough for such an action to be overlooked.

Blaise caught sight of Ben re-entering the room and a slight change in Terry’s demeanour. With a touch of frustration and reluctance he stepped back. “Perhaps later.”

Terry blushed happily and looked up at Blaise through his lashes. "The children won't be awake forever," he said. "I'll be all yours in just a few hours."

There was another knock at the door, and with a regretful look at Blaise, Terry excused himself to answer it.

"Find me later," he whispered as he brushed past Blaise. "And in the mean time, make yourself at home."
