"Firia what should I wear for today?"

"You can wear anything, you are beautiful with all of them" Firia smiled.

"But..but I didn't bring any good clothes from home. I didn't know I will have a day like this with Alex" Alicia blushed.

"Like I said..."

"I also didn't bring any make up" Alicia cut in.

"You are already beau..."

"I... I...What will Alex think about me, I'm not dress enough or even put any make up." She cutted in again.

"Like I said, Just casual is enough, You are already beautiful, even without fancy clothes and make up" Firia snapped

Two girls come down from the stair, one of them wear a casual red shirt and a long skirt, her red hair give an accent to her beautiful appearance. Obviously, she was Firia.

The other girl with a purple hair to her waist, wearing a white colored shirt, plus a pale purple colored jacket, with a black miniskirt with white colored stripe. Making her more and more beautiful.

Alex was secretly relieved, when Firia was acting the same when she was with Alicia. He worried because yesterday affair, she will start distancing herself. Then he turned to Alicia, he was stunned with her appearance, she was really beautiful.

"Alex!" The two girl walk to Alex, and Alicia called him.

Alex was still not recovered.

Alicia smiled and called him again "Alex"

"Ah.. Alicia" Alex snapped from his daze.

"Ara..Alex, how is it? I'm the one who choose her clothes you know" Firia teased him.

"Yes... She is very beautiful" Alex said anxiously.

Alicia blushed.

"Then I won't bothered you two today, have a nice day" She smiled.

Now even Alex was blushed a little.

"Shall we go Alicia?" Alex asked.

"Sure" She smiled.

Firia watched the two went away, though she wave her hand and put her smile. Her heart was bitter.

...

"Alex, where we should go?"

"We should...."

They strolled around the town, eat in restaurant and shopping for a few hours. But the two still didn't look exhausted. Contrary, they still brimming with energy.

The sun was almost set. Alex already used up all his ideas.

"What are we going to do next?" Alicia asked with smile, she was very happy today.

"Ugh...Actually I already used up all of my ideas" Alex said ashamedly.

The situation become awkward, Alicia immediately thought of something, "How about we go to watch the sunset. We can see it from up there" She pointed at the top of the dungeon tower.

"How we go there?" Alex asked.

"We can go from the tower, there a special passage to go there. That place was popular for tourist of this town. Actually I want to abandon this idea since all of them was under hunter guild jurisdiction. So even nobles need to make a reservation. But since you are hunter guild gold rank hunter, they will give a special treatment and let us in"

"Sure, let's go"

When the two arrived at the bottom of the tower, Alicia guide him to the back of the dungeon's entrance, there was another entrance that lead up the way to the top of the tower.

"Halt! Do you have reservation?"

Alex smiled, he took out his golden badge "Is this okay?"

After seeing a golden badge from Alex, the guard immediately give a way "This way, Sir Gold rank Hunter"

Alex and Alicia going inside of the tower, the tower interior was only a stair that lead to the top. The tower seem have 10 floor with a few room on each floor. Alex looked at them with great interest as they climbed up to the top.

"The door was still mysterious, even a few thousand year trying. There is still no one that manage to unlock the door. There are people who good at lock, but still didn't manage to opened it, there are even a few attempt to destroy the door. Even back then, there was a rank 8 warrior want to blast this door. But to no avail, it didn't even give a scratch on the door.

This door was very mysterious, many still want to try opened the door occasionally. But since only the top that was opened, this spot become a popular tourist spot" Looking at the confusion in Alex's face, she explained.

"I see, this is very mysterious"

After a while, they reached the top. There weren't many people, only a few people. And of course, these people that come was a couple. Alex just hope to enjoy the sunset with Alicia so he didn't bothered with this.

Alex and Alicia reached this floor at perfect time, the sun was almost set and the scene it made was really beautiful.

Alicia was immediately go to the fence joyfully, looking at the sunset that was so beautiful, she turned back to Alex.

"Alex Alex, look" She joyfully said.

Alex smiled and arrived beside of her watching the sunset together.

Both of them feel this day was the best day. Especially for Alex, the difference between Alicia and Sandra, his previous girlfriend was like heaven and earth.

"Alex, this was the happiest day in my life."

Alex turned his head to her, the wind blowing her hair meekly, coupled with the orange light from the sun, Alex was captivated.

"This is my lover...yes she is...Alicia is my lover now"

Alex recalled his time with Sandra. She only act normally to him, but never closed enough. They even still haven't hold hand. Alex realized, that all the time with Sandra was only his puppy love. She really never loved him.

Alex closed his eyes, every scene with Sandra was shattered in his mind. When Sandra betrayed him, he thought the world already gone. But this time, he got a lover that she can't be compared. Now, he seems to not have any hatred toward Sandra. If he still have any hatred to her, there still a bit of feeling from him to her. But now he didn't care, he now didn't have any hatred nor feeling to her. He regard her as stranger, if Sandra stand in his path, he will get rid of her. As he still close his eyes, his heart and mind seem refreshed.

"Alex?" Alicia called Alex confusedly. She look confusedly at Alex who look at her but with closed eyes.

Alex slowly opened his eyes, Alicia was in front of him. With wind blowing her hair making her look more beautiful. 'Yes..This is my lover. I will protect her with my life' Alex swear in his heart.

"Alex, what happened?" Alicia tilted her head.

Alex shook his head. "Nothing"

"I see" Alicia relieved.

"I haven't said this to you" Alex slowly said, "Alicia...I love you"

Alicia was surprised, but soon her face filled with a big smiled the world seems brightened. Coupled with the wind and the light from the sunset. She appeared really beautiful, just like a fairy.

"I love you too"

"Hehe...This couple seem still remembered to come back" Firia teased.

Alicia was blushed and Alex scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Have you eat?" Alex said.

"Yes, I already have my dinner" Firia smiled.

Soon after, they went to their respective room after chatting a bit.

"Alicia it's me"

Alicia opened the door, she saw Firia outside.

"Can I come inside?"

"Firia, come...come in" Alicia said hurriedly.

Firia sit on the chair while Alicia was on the bed. The situation become awkward.

After a while, Firia sighed.

"Alicia...I really envy you" Firia said.

"Firia?" Alicia was surprised with this.

"When I see you with Alex, my heart was in pain. Back then in academy, I just curious at the new student of my Idol, Dean Marco. So I tried to approach him. Later on, I get that he really a caring person, he also a powerful person. I thought, he might be the helper that I waiting all this time.

Noble Family's daughter fate was to married and expand the house connection. Unlike your special royal family who get married to the one you want. I really envious. So I tried to get closer and closer to him, as he not only powerful but also an alchemist, to boost it he was a caring person, but when I get closer and closer, I don't know when this start, I can't help but start to love him. I want to trusted my life to him rather than some unknown noble's son.

But after seeing you become a lover, my heart was really in pain. It pain so much. He cared so much about you, he..." She bited her lips.

"Firia..." Alicia was shocked and a bit pained at her heart. Firia was already become her best friend, after this few months in academy. But today, she....

"I already talk to Alex, I still won't give him up." She talked with a great determination in her eyes.

Alicia was shocked.

"I...I..." Alicia bited her lips, 'Is my determination lower than her?' She secretly thought.

'No! For Alex I can give up my life. I won't lose to her' Alicia swear on her heart with determination.

"I already talked to Alex about this, and do you know what I get?" Firia asked
