Chapter One: Every Day

*Thud!*

Blood sighed as he looked at the stack of papers Elliot had just placed on his desk. He leaned back in his chair and glanced out the window.

He smiled as he saw his rose garden.

How hard he had worked to make it look as beautiful as it did now. At the time... it had all been done for his sister, Vivaldi. But now, he did it for Alice.

He felt his heart jump in excitement.

Alice.

That was right!

She would be coming in a few short hours for tea in the garden.

Blood sighed as he looked back at his paperwork.

Ah, it could wait.

"After all," he thought with a smirk on his face, "I can always make Elliot it."

The mafia boss chuckled softly as he left his office.

Now, to get things ready for Alice.

Blood pulled out his pocket-watch.

7:00

Ah... Any minute now.

"The tea's ready, Blood!"

Blood gave a curt nod to his assistant. "Good, good."

"Alice is coming?"

"Yes," was the quick reply.

Elliot pursed his lips.

"Again?"

Blood turned towards the hair. "Again? What do you mean by 'again?'"

Elliot shrugged. "Well, you have been inviting Alice practically every day this week."

"Is that a problem?"

"Er... no." Elliot's rabbit ears drooped slightly. "It's just... I didn't know there was something going on between you guys."

Blood shot Elliot a cold look.

*Yelp!*

"S-sorry... Sooo um, are you two dating?" Elliot asked as he began setting up the tea table.

"More or less."

Elliot cocked his head. "Aaah."

Blood glanced at his watch again.

7:03

Soon... she should be here very soon.

"Boss!"

Blood sighed as he turned to face his noisy gatekeepers. "Yes?"

"You got a letter!" the Bloody Twins announced happily.

"Wonderful," Blood replied sarcastically as he held out his hand for the letter.

"And can you guess who it's from?" the twins asked, eyes twinkling with mischief.

"The letter?" Blood asked.

"Aw, you're no fun, Boss!" Dee whined and reluctantly handed over the letter.

"Thank you." Blood snatched up the letter and tore it open.

Elliot quietly slipped over to Blood and peeked over his shoulder.

"Hey! No fair! Why does newbie hare get to read the letter!"

Blood's eyebrow twitched slightly. "Do you mind?" he hissed and folded the letter.

Elliot and the twins immediately stood at attention. "No, Boss!"

Blood huffed and stuck the letter into his pocket. He would finish reading the letter later. Somewhere and sometime when his employees were not around.

"You three," Blood faced Elliot and the twins. "Go into house and get some paperwork done."

"Aw, Boss..." they grumbled as they slowly made their way into the mansion.

"Blood!"

The mafia boss relaxed as he saw a young lady being escorted into the garden by one of his faceless servants.

"Good evening, Alice," he welcomed.

Alice blushed. "Thank you for inviting me again, Blood."

"Ah it was nothing." Blood took Alice's hand and led her to the tea table.

"I really love your evening tea parties."

Blood could feel his chest swell with pride.

Ah, how he loved it when Alice praised him!

"Thank you."

Alice laughed softly as she took her seat. "The roses look wonderful tonight."

Blood smiled and sat down his beside her. "It's only because you are here."

Alice laughed again. "Don't be silly, Blood. I'm sure they look just as wonderful when I'm not around."

"They look awful, I assure you, when your presence is missing."

Alice rolled her eyes. "You flatter me too much."

Blood smirked. "I try."

Alice huffed.

"Shall we have tea?" she changed the subject. "And where are the others?"

Blood waved for the some of his servants to bring them tea and refreshments.

"They had work to do."

"Oh..."

"And I wanted some privacy."

Alice looked at Blood curiously. "Privacy?"

"Yes," Blood smirked once again. "I have something to ask you."

"Okay?"

Blood took her hand. "Would you let me have the honor of being your boyfriend?"

Alice's face reddened. "Y-you... want to be my b-boyfriend?!"

"Is that a yes?" Blood asked sweetly.

"Well... um."

"Alice."

She slowly raised her blue orbs to meet his green ones.

"Y-yes," she said softly. "You may have that honor... for every day here in Wonderland."

Blood wrapped one arm around her.

Every day... in Wonderland.

But only in Wonderland?

Blood narrowed his eyes slightly.

That wasn't quite the answer he wanted.

Alice let her head rest against Blood's shoulder as she reached out for the plate of sponge cake a servant had just placed in front of them.

Ah... he supposed that answer would work for now.

For now, Alice was his.
