midnight kiss
New Year's tradition
A midnight kiss is the kiss exchanged between romantic partners at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve—a tradition meant to seal affection for the coming year.
The ritual carries superstitious weight: kissing someone at midnight supposedly ensures the relationship will endure.
We found each other in the crowd just in time for the midnight kiss.
