Lost Times

Double Surprise. (18)

After the feast Alice walks by the window and she looks outside. Jace go towards her, Zian sees them talking, he then tried to eavesdrop them.

"Jace, what's up."

"What are you doing here." Jace ask.

"I'm just having some space out."

"Oh. Okey"

"I'm so glad its over."

"Yeah."

"It's all happening so fast.." Alice looked down and a frown on her face."

"Is there something troubling you?" Jace ask.

Alice remains silent Jace was about to speak when Alice speak. "I miss my home.. I miss my dad and."

"We can take you there.."

"No, it's just not the same."

"We'll help you in any way. And you know as cliché as it may sound, I'm always here for you."

"I'm grateful thanks Jace." Alice let go a quite chuckle.

Jace stares at her. "You look cute when you laugh."

Alice look at Jace for a moment. "Huh, what?"

Jace snaps out. "Huh, what" he paused realizing what he'd done feeling a bit embarrassed. "Ah nothing." Jace laughs.
Jace decided to take the risk of confessing his feelings to Alice and letting it all out from his chest. Sweat forming to his forehead. A moment of silence settled upon them, Jace leans to Alice then stops.

Jace tries to shake it off his nervousness. "Alice.. I been meaning to tell you.. To tell you that."

"What is it?" Said Alice filled her with curiosity and feeling her heart trembling for no apparent reason.

"Its just that, I can't help myself, Alice when I'm with you. I wanna be true to you.. This passed weeks I just can't help but to think about you, I guess I like you and I'm in love with you.." Jace said searching her eyes while Alice remain speechless.

Alice gasps "Jace! I.."

"I love you Alice." Jace said with truth to his eyes.

After a while Alice finally spoke. "I don't know.." Jace looked down. Alice continues. "I.. I like you too." Alice smiled.

"What do you mean by that?.." Jace ask frowning.

"I didn't think you think of me that way.. I also feel the same for you Jace but I didn't think you'll-" Jace unexpectedly kissed Alice by surprise, Alice turned shades of red after it Jace looks at her.

"You're just not a beauty Alice. I fell in love by your bravery and pure heart. You're different, you make me feel hopeful Alice." Said Jace, Alice smiled at him warmly.

"And I was thinking if.. If" Jace felt hesitant. "Will you marry me Alice?.."

Alice was taken aback. "Really?.." Raising her brows.

"Look, I don't wanna rush you.. But father are trying arrange me to other Kingdoms. All I want is you Alice."

Zian felt furious but think against about it.

Alice felt overwhelmed by this. "Okey Jace." They hugged each other.

"I love you Alice."

"I love you too Jace."

After their hug they looked at each other. "Alright." Said Jace smiley "let's go.!" Jace and Alice went to Jace's parents holding hands.
Zian sadly walked out the door feeling defeated.

"I've heard them. Well I didn't think Jace will to be like that.. Well, I'm still happy for them, are you.?" Sireine spoked and then came forward him. "Well, are you alright?. You seemed pretty jealous" Sireine chuckle.

".. No I'm not" Zian looked through her.

"But you are!. Well I guess its too obvious that you like her."

"No! I did not!" Zian said raising his voice.

"Haha.. You're so funny when you get mad" Sireine laughs, she stopped.

"Sorry... But look at them Alice is so happy now, now that she's with him so what's wrong with that?" Said Zian.

Sireine leans to Zian and cup both Zian's cheeks. "Its okey.." She said. "You're still, seemed cool to me." She smiled then not long enough their lips touched, Zian kissing her.

Zian look through Sireine's eyes. "Let's get married." Zian said smiling. Pink crept in Sireine's cheeks her eyes shone brightly. She then take Zian's left hands and run.

"Come with me." Sireine said excitedly.

"Where are we going?."

...

Jace came to the room where King James and Eirene was. "Father." Jace pause. "I've change my mind." Jace said while still holding hands with Alice. "I wanna be a King." Both Eirene and James were surprised when they heard this.

"Jace, you've changed your mind.? Well-" King James didn't finish his words while jace was catching his breath.

"But for one thing. I will marry Alisson."

Sireine came next running by and said the same. "We'll get married me, and, Zian."

"What!?." King James was shocked and laughs joyfully. "Sireine! And Jace!.. We're so happy for both of you.." James looked to Eirene with big smile to their faces.

"We're so.. Happy for you all.."

They all hugged together and was so very happy about it.

"Its a double wedding!." Alice said happily.

...

"And they all lived happily ever after?." Said Stefan unsure.

"No, not yet." Said the tourguide.

"What? but I thought.." Said Stefan the rest were thinking the same thing.

"Then how can you explain the hearts?" Explain the tourguide.

"Oh yeah.." The whole grew quiet.

"Just listen to me, it's okey it's not that long."

"Okey we're listening"

The tour guide smiled. "Okey. Then.."

He repeated it again and again then repeat the same ritual even louder. A thunder struck the grave, later a stormed started. In the loud storm you can hear Ace laughs.
