( hey guys I want to let you know that he may or may not be out of character so I'm sorry about that. Other than that enjoy.)

5 months have passed since the first show at the happy Hotel. Occasionally stutter when I speak to Alastor. I also had daydreams about Alastor. He would snap me out of it sometimes by giving me a small greeting.

Today is very different than the usual. I was talking with Husk when I noticed him from across the room. When I noticed Alastor standing across the room. His back was turned me. I sat down and began to drool without thinking. Then, a red glove hand under my vision. I look to the owner to see Angel, I have annoyed, "What Angel?"

"What are you looking at?~" he asked as he leaned over me and started wiggling his butt.

"None of your business!" I say rudely.

"Oh come on Alice." He begged as his lips formed a pout.

"Angel I said no!" I say as my face turns gray and while pushing him away from me.

Angel landed on the floor with a loud thud. He said as he rubbed the back of his head, "Why ya do that?" Before I could respond I heard a pouf and then Alastor appeared clearing his throat, "Alice my dear may I have a word with you?" My eyes met his as I reply, O...Ok."

Suddenly, he snapped his fingers and teleport us to a vacant room. "My dear Alice I have been wondering if you would join me tonight?" He queried me with excitement and a little nervousness in his voice. The room was lit by only the window covering the room by an amber glow. The furniture was covered in sheets. I felt his fingers lift my chin up. Heat creeps its way onto my cheeks as his glowing eyes pierced my own orange hues. Finally, I was able to breathe out, "Yes." As I squeaked a bit.

"Wonderful my dear Alice.~," he said happily with a smile even wider. "Don't forget 7 p.m. tonight" he finished will snapping his fingers sending us back to the foyer.

" I'll see you tonight my dear." His voice was more chipper than usual but after he said that he vanished.

It took me a moment to realize what just happened. I didn't know what to think. So everything went black and I felt my back hit the ground.

~~~~~~

Awake a little later to my room. I quickly took the time,c 6 p.m. I quickly got up and took a bath. After the bath, I threw on a long dress. It was a dress that I used to wear back in the 1930s. I've fixed my makeup and hair including some red lipstick this time. I then slipped on a pair of black flats. I checked the time once more at 7:29 p.m. I quickly slide my purse over my shoulders. Once the clock hit 7:30 pm. I heard a knock on my door, I open the door to see Alastor on the dot.

Right away he holds his hand out, " shall we?" My lips curled into a smile and I simply replied, "We Shall." Then he escorts me out of the hotel. We walk for a block or two before we come upon a small jazz club. Finally, he leads me inside.

I was instantly overwhelmed with the feeling of nostalgia. Before I knew it I knew it Alastor had leaned down and whispered in my ear, "Alice darling?" I froze... He had never called me by darling before.. once again my face was black. He held his hand and I set my own his. Then, he led me to a table for two. Some jazz is playing causing me to tap my foot gently. He pulled out a chair and said, "After you." At last, he took a seat across from me. We locked gazes before he asked, " Darling what is it about you that makes me so interested in you?" I want felt my cheeks rising in temperature.

" you're interested in me? How I don't understand. I'm not pretty." I say a bit surprised.

I lay my hand on the table not thinking about it. Then I feel Alastor's hand on mine. His voice rang through the air, " Alice my Darling you are the most wonderful woman I've ever laid my eyes on. You are the light that brightens my day. You make hell bearable." I sat there stunned and surprised by what he had said.

Without knowing it just he stood and then just made his way over to me. He leans down and presses his lips to mine closing his eyes. I close mine and leans into the kiss. I've heard an "Em" caused us both to look at the source. The waiter hands us some menus. Then he let's go wait on other customers.

I hadn't realized it but his arms were around my waist

I hadn't realized it but his arms were around my waist. My arm somehow wound their way around his neck. His face with just as much red as mine. The words I've been longing to say for a hundred and fifteen years escaped my lips, " I have always loved you." My voice was barely above a whisper.

A little chuckle escaped his lips as he pulled away and took his seat. I picked up my menu and read through. After a while, they return to the take our orders he finally recognized Alastor and began to shake. You scurried away quickly I paid no mind. I was captured by the creature in front of me. His eyes never left mine.

After dinner, we dance for an hour. After that, we left and paid the bill. Alastor suggested that we go for a walk and I agreed. We made our way to the local park. We were armed and arm. Alastor was extremely tall. He towered me at 7ft tall well I was so tiny at 5"2. I looked up to see his glowing eyes. Gaze at me fondly as I did so back. I never wanted this night to end. After all was this a dream because if it was a dream I do not want to wake up.

One we got to the park Alastor led me to a bench. I sat down as he sat beside me. His hand was now in mine and I couldn't be more happier. He then leans down and gives me another kiss this time there were no interruptions. The kiss was a loving one just as the first kiss had been. Just as I imagined it.

Funny how this is not how I wanted to tell him. I have a letter in my room that I brought for him a long long time ago. Explains every single bit of feeling I have for him. One of these days I got a hand in that letter he needs to see how much I truly love him.
