Chapter 24 - Pictures with Alois

~Reader's P.O.V~

The days have rolled by and people have noticed me as a "heroic" person. Whenever I would go do eren da people would whisper about me, sometimes I would hear things like, "She's the one who caught the robber" or "She got shot to save her family". I shrugged it off. It was finally Saturday and I had to go back to Alois' place.

"Bye (F/N)! Be good!" Michelle and Louis shouted before I left with Alois.

"(F/N)! I read the papers!" Alois shouted as he held my hands.

"W-what?" I asked. He then gave me a big hug.

"You're a hero!" Alois said.

"Please don't call me a hero." I told him. He looked at me kinda shocked.

"Why? It's good to be called a hero. Would you rather be called a loser? I can call you that too." Alois told me. I sighed.

"It just puts a lot of pressure on me. Like I feel like people will be depending on me, I don't want to let them down." I said as I looked out the window and Alois didn't say anything back.

"Well, what are we going to do for the weekend?" I asked.

"I don't know. Jeez, do I look like somebody who plans everything. Claude does that." Alois said. I sighed again.

------------------------------

We reached the manor and I walked up to my room and unpacked some stuff I had. I didn't have a lot of stuff to bring because I left most of my stuff at Alois' since I would be staying here on the weekends.

"(F/N)! (F/N)!" I heard Alois shout from the halls.

"What?" I asked.

"Get ready! In a few hours a photographer will be here to take our pictures!" Alois exclaimed.

"Oh, you mean yours and your staff?" I asked.

"No stupid, yours and mine. Wear that purple dress I got you." he replied.

"Oh, sure." I said. He then left the room. I went to get the purple dress from my closet and I wore it. Then I went to do my hair, it had a little bun in the back of my head with hair draping down my sides. I wore some purple flats with it too. I applied some mascara to look, I guess prettier. I headed downstairs for lunch.

"You look stunning!" Alois told me.

"Thanks." I replied as I sat down next to him.

"Today we will be having Beef Donburi and some Royal Milk Tea for lunch." Claude said to us as he handed out the plates.

"Thank you." I replied. Claude nodded and left. I cut into my meal and at it bit by bit.

"Um, I've been meaning to ask. Why are you having a photographer over?" I asked Alois trying to start a conversation.

"Because, I want to keep our memories." Alois simply said.

"Oh, that's nice." I said smiling.

~Time Skip~

"Okay, (F/N) stand next to Alois." The photographer said. I nodded and went to stand by Alois.

"Okay, now sit down." She told me as she put a chair by Alois and I sat down.

"Perfect. Smile!" She said. I smiled and she took a picture. Then she showed it to us. It looked somewhat cute.

"Wow, that's cute." I said in awe.

"I know!" She said.

"Okay! Next picture!" She ordered.

"Okay, how do you want us to pose?" I asked.

"Do whatever you guys would like." She replied. I looked to Alois.

"How did you want to pose?" I asked.

"Here." He said as he put his arm around my neck and stuck out a piece sign. I looked at him.

"That's cute! (F/N)! Look like you're having fun!" She yelled. When she said that I gave out the cutest closed eye smile i could.

Alois and I went to go look at the pictures and I stood there in awe. It was so...SO CUTE! It was weird but we looked like a couple, a happy couple.

"Don't we look cute (F/N)?" Alois asked me. I blushed.

"We do..." I said quietly. He laughed.

"Of course we do!" He said as he gave me a side hug. I started to blush again.

------------------------

The photographer left and she gave us two copies of all the pictures, one for me and one for Alois. I loved how the pictures came out, I went up to my room and found the empty picture frame that was sitting on my bedstand. I out my favorite picture of us on there. The picture of him and I smiling together with his arm around my neck and his peace sign. I sat on my bed and smiled.

"(F/N), Your highness asked you to accompany him to town." Claude said to me from nowhere.

"Oh, sure thing." I replied as I hoped off the bed and walked with Claude downstairs.

"Come on (F/N)! Lets go to town!" Alois cheerfully said.

"I'm coming!" I said as I picked up the pace. We got into the carriage and we went to town. The carriage ride was pretty boring because nobody was talking.

"So, what are we doing in town?" I asked.

"I don't know, I just want to get away from the manor for a while." He told me. I nodded. Soon we got into town and Alois told Claude to leave us. Soon it was just me and Alois.

"Where to first?" I asked.

"Let's go get some ice cream." He told me.

"Sure! I love ice cream!" I exclaimed. We then walked together to get some ice cream, he got chocolate and I got vanilla. It was so good. Alois and I were having a good time but I kept hearing whispers about us. Some were like "They look so cute" or "They're matching! How adorable!".

"We do look like a couple don't we?" Alois said to me. That caught me off guard.

"Aha, I guess. We are matching in purple." I said to him nervously. I liked more of my icecream and in the corner of my eye I thought I had seen Ciel. I actually did, I waved to him and he waved back. He was walking towards us when Alois tapped my shoulder.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"You have some ice cream on your face." He said, then Alois licked my cheek where the icecream was. I'm pretty sure I looked like a red balloon by then.

"All gone!" He exclaimed.

"A-Alois!" I said blushing. I looked over to Ciel and he looked at us, kinda shocked and kinda surprised.
