       THE alchemist couldn’t keep calm especially with the news of invaders and a lot of stuff have been worse ever since the prophecy was stated by his significant other, he can’t help but pray for his safety especially when he’s been busy with his work— his hard work has been paid off as he kept on travelling because of the neverending requests from other countries.

He was granted an award as one of the best alchemist in their generation, even earning a job on the headquarters of their country's alchemist association with a good ranking— even surpassing the other alchemist that has been there for years.

And just like what his significant other have promised, he was there. Smiling proudly at him all the time and making the alchemist so happy as he shower him with affections and praises during the time that they’re alone, making him feel loved and appreciated.

“Dear, make sure that you’re resting well.” the prophet kept on running his hand on the alchemist’s dark locks, “I know that you’re already in your dream job but please take care of yourself.”

“I know, my beloved.” the alchemist smiles as the prophet kept on playing his hair, “I just wish that we could have a lot of time to be together.”

“With our country’s situation, I’m afraid but I have to be around the palace all the time. I have to tell them what will happen in the future so I can protect everyone,” the prophet sadly stated as he let out a sigh, “I miss you too, you know?”

“I miss you so much,” the alchemist hugged the prophet so tight as he nuzzles on his neck, “It’s been a while.”

“I know.” the prophet laughs, “You’ve been busy with the requests so I expected that we won’t be seeing each other frequently.”

“Indeed! There are other alchemists in our headquarters but I’m the one that is requested most of the time!” the alchemist blurted out, pouting in annoyance “I want to spend time with you but I can’t because of those jobs.”

The prophet ruffled the alchemist’s hair as he smiled, “I’m proud of you.”

“Of course, you are!” the alchemist agreed, nodding furiously as he grinned “And you’ll be proud of me until I can be on the top! Until the moment that I’m the best alchemist on this world!”

“Indeed.” the prophet agreed without even thinking about it twice, “But remember that too much power means more load of work.”

“I know.” the alchemist groaned but his grin never disappeared as he kept on looking at his beloved one’s face “That’s why I’m working hard.”

“Ah. You’re such an amazing person. I’m really proud of you,” the prophet stated as he caressed the alchemist’s face with both of his hand, looking at him with such loving eyes, “I love you so much. I want you to reach your dreams and continue living with your bright persona. I want you to know that you’re the best thing that’s ever been mine.”

“You’re being sappy right now, darling~” the alchemist teased as he put his hands above the prophet’s “And as I kept on being better, you’ll be there for me. You’ll be watching over me, right?”

The prophet seems to flinch at what the alchemist have said, making the younger male tilt his head in confusion. The prophet took a deep breath before looking at the alchemist once again with such loving eyes, his fingers tracing on his cheeks.
