He never kisses any one on New Year's. His younger students wonder why. A few have even tried to set him up with dates, but Charles turns them all down. The young ones think he's heartbroken. Some think it's due to Moira, others to Lilandra.
The older X-Men know the truth, however. They know that no woman could ever hold their Professor's heart, who truly holds his heart, and why he'll never be with him. They realize, too, that there's nothing that can be done, and so Charles and Erik drink alone every New Year's as the clock strikes midnight.
The End
