(Alfonse's POV)
I sat on a couch with Commander Anna, Sharena, Fjorm, Est, Lyn, and Roy. We were waiting for Sylvia to return.
Sylvia... when she was first summoned into Askar, none of us knew anything beyond her name. As time went on, we got to know her better. We didn't know what she looked like though. That is... until today. Before today, Commander Anna was the only one who knew what Sylvia looked like. When I regained consciousness, I saw her... our summoner... with her hood off. She was absolutely stunning. Her curly chestnut hair with the blonde tips... her tan skin... deep chocolate eyes. What is this feeling? I can't possibly be developing feelings for Sylvia, can I?
"Alfonssseeeeee..."
I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at my sister, sitting to my right.
"Y-yes?"
"Are you ok? You're red..." Sharena asked, concerned.
"I'm fine." I muttered.
"I'm baaa-aaack!" Called Sylvia, skipping into the room.
I looked up at her. She still didn't show her face. She wore a turquoise shirt with a hood, black pants, and of course... she had the hood covering half her face- just like her cloak from Askar.
"Hello, Sylvia!" Est shot out of her seat.
"Hey, Est. Alrighty guys... here's how this is gonna work," she clapped her hands together and sat in a chair backwards, "I will teach you all the ways of my realm. But this means you all need jobs."
"J...jobs?" Est's face fell at hearing the word.
"Yes. Jobs. Now, I think I have the perfect jobs for all of you. There's seven of you, and seven days in a week. So here's what's gonna happen. For every one of you, I'll have a day where I take you for a job interview. This will go on until I have taken all of you. And trust me, you're all gonna get the jobs,"
"May I ask," Lyn raised her hand, "what these jobs are?"
"You'll just have to see. We will draw sticks to see who goes first," Sylvia took seven sticks from her pocket and held them in her clentched fist. We all took one. It was I that got the shortest.
"Alfonse, you come with me tomorrow. That's how we settle it. Girls, you can come sleep in my room," Sylvia said, noticing the time, "and you two boys can... uh... you can sleep on the couch?" The girls walked off into Sylvia's bedroom.
Roy sat on the couch cross-legged and looked at me smirking. I was seated across from him.
"What?"
"Spill," Roy said.
"What do you mean..."
"You like Sylvia, don't you?"
"pffft... no. I... I don't. I don't even know what she looks like, let alone-"
"Alfonse... it's pretty obvious you like her,"
"Really...?" I sighed. I was obvious? Does this mean Sylvia knew, too? Or was Roy just hella observent?
"Yeah,"
I sighed and hid my face in a pillow, "how can I like someone if I don't know what she looks like?"
"Well... maybe it won't stay that way for long..."
"What are you implying?"
I watched as Roy got up and walked to the girls' room.
"Roy, what are you doing?"
Roy turned to me and smirked.
"You...- oh no, you aren't," I stood as well.
Roy turned to the door again and cracked it open. He turned to me and mouthed "They're asleep"
I sighed and quietly walked to join Roy at the doorway. I reluctantly peered into the room and blushed.
There she is... she looks so peaceful. And quiet.. and-
My thoughts were interrupted by Roy, gently shoving me and walking into the room.
"Roy, what are you doing?!" I whispered in alarm.
He stifled a snicker, "If they were awake I'd be so dead right now,"
"Roy, get out here," I whispered, stern.
I had a feeling the girls weren't actually asleep. Unless they were really worn out, I don't see how they could fall asleep THAT fast. I blushed a dark shade of red as I watched Roy walk towards Sylvia.
He turned to me and mouthed "I'm gonna lift her hood. Get in here,"
I shook my head, a deeper blush forming on my face. He smirked and lifted her hood gently. The angle I was standing, I couldn't see anything. Roy quickly and quietly ran out of the room snickering. I glanced at the door then closed it and followed Roy.
"You are gonna die," I straightforwardly said as we sat on the couch again.
Roy was blushing deeply, "I'm well aware,"
I rolled my eyes and laid back on the couch, staring at the ceiling.
"Alfonse?"
"Hm?"
"She is stunning,"
"I know, right?" I sighed deamily.
Roy glanced at me suspiciously, "How would you know that unless-"
I gasped, realizing what I said, "I-I mean..."
"You've seen her before!" Roy gasped.
"Ok ok, yes. Earlier... just please don't tell anyone," I sighed.
Roy threw a pillow at me. I laughed and threw it back. And so began a massive pillow fight.
"Would you boys keep it down out here?" mumbled Commander Anna, walking out into the room.
"Sorry," we both whispered through snickering.
Commander sat across from us, "why are you not asleep?"
"We aren't ti-"
Roy cut me off, "Alfonse has a crush on Sylvia,"
I glared at him dangerously, "Gee thanks, Roy."
Commander Anna looked at Roy then me, a deadpan expression upon her face. I blushed deeply and looked down at my trembling hands, embarrassed.
We both anxiously awaited for Commander Anna's reply, but all she got out was "save it for the morning. I'm too tired to deal with your shenanigans,"
We both sighed in relief as she walked back into the girls' shared room. I glared at Roy again as he lay down on the couch and his his face in a pillow, snickering.
"Goodnight, Alfonse,"
I rolled my eyes and threw a pillow at Roy, "whatever. Goodnight, Roy,"
I lay down as well and thought about how tomorrow could go. I shouldn't worry about that though. I sighed deeply, allowing the thought to leave my mind before falling asleep.
A/n: I know Roy is out of character but I think I said before that I dont play any games besides FE Heroes so I'm just making this up XD
ok so this is a long story, but Alfonse is based heavily on a boy that actually has a crush on me. He isn't as bad as Alfonse, but he is head over heels for me.
So Alfonse's actions are based on the actions of this boy that likes me XD so yep. He's one of the main protagonists, so I hope you like seeing him crush over Sylvia, cause you'll see a lot more of it ;)
