When Rachel heard what Alex said, she finally remembered what they were talking about yesterday. Alex did indeed tell her to go with him back in his mansion. She who finally remembered that one little detail stood there in front of Alex with wide eyes.

Lilitth who heard this new piece of information for the first time was also shocked, but after a short thought, she quickly adapted to the situation.

"Rachel nee-san is going to live with us?" Lilitth looked at Alex with her round innocent looking eyes.

"Yes, just until Instructor Dan comes back."

"Yay! We'll have so much fun Rachel nee-san." Lilitth suddenly hugged the stunned Rachel.

"Um... Ah... Fine." Rachel couldn't contradict that cute little thing, so she reluctantly agreed.

"Give me one day to prepare, I promise I will go with you tomorrow."

"Do you want me to stay here for one more night, just in case something else happens?"

"There's no need. I'm sure after last night, no one will try today. Even if someone did I'll make sure to call you. So go home, don't worry I'll be safe."

Alex didn't want to leave Rachel's side but if he pushes himself while she was like this, she might not agree to come home with him.

"Alright then, I'll wait one more day before bringing you home." Hearing what Alex said made Rachel blush, but she knew that there was no deeper meaning placed into that statement.

Lilitth released Rachel from her hug and waved goodbye.

Alex was obviously not going to leave Rachel alone in this kind of situation, also the person he called hasn't arrived yet. So he needed to keep an eye on Rachel, not by cameras he was going to camp out and watch her from the nearby empty house that he rented just case something like this happened.

As Alex was thinking about a lot of different things, he suddenly remembered the day his parents died. He couldn't understand why these memories suddenly resurfaced while he was thinking, but before could even blossom into a thought he pushed it back into his subconscious.

'Not yet, I need to hold it in.' Alex has tried for a very long time, but something he hid inside himself was trying to come out, but he wasn't ready for it yet.

...

Oliver who had separated from the group minutes ago was now heading towards the coffee shop Sayaka was talking about. He was pretty nervous as he walked towards the shop. His usual confidence was nowhere to be seen as his hands started to sweat.

He didn't know what Sayaka's answer was going to be, but no matter what she decided he would understand and go with it.

When Oliver got in view of the coffee shop he saw Sayaka being surrounded by some boys. Sayaka seeing the approaching Oliver waved at him.

"Oly you're finally here." The boys who were trying to flirt with Sayaka wanted to see what kind of guy, she was waiting for. Since they had the superior numbers they wanted to scare the guy a bit and take the girl.

Yet the moment they turned around and saw Oliver they were surprised by his physique. They were thinking that seeing as Sayaka was wearing a high school uniform the guy she would be with was also in high school, but seeing that muscular man they got confused. Then they saw his uniform and were surprised to know that he was in high school as well.

Sayaka happily approached Oliver and took a hold of his right arm. "I've been waiting."

"Sorry about that. So who are these guys?" Oliver pointed at the three boys bothering Sayaka.

"Oh them, I'm not sure... But I think they were saying that I should ditch you since you were a spineless weakling or something like that."

When the three boys heard what Sayaka said to Oliver, they didn't defend themselves and started running without looking back.

"Want me to chase them?"

"No, they're not worth wasting our date time." Sayaka said with a bright smile on her face. Oliver who once again remembered that this was a date, felt like his back was sweating.

"Umm... Oh... Yeah, you're right. But before that our, you going to answer me now?" Oliver gathered his courage and once again asked.

"Don't worry let's do this first, and once we're done, I'll give you an answer."

"Ok, so what are we going to do first."

"First we're going to have something to eat, and then I'm going to do some shopping." Sayaka happily pulled Oliver to the coffee shop.

...

Sayaka ordered some coffee and pasta, while Oliver just had some coffee. While Sayaka was eating she suddenly spoke.

"So Oly, tell me when did you know that you love me?" When Oliver heard this question, he almost spat out his coffee, but he was able to hold it in. He knew that Sayaka was going to ask this at some point, so he had an answer prepared. Well, the answer was going to be the truth since he couldn't really think of what to say.

"Actually I just thought about it when Kei was trying to say something to you. When it looked like you would be taken away by him, something within me started to scream. Then I started to imagine you going out with Kei, which made me want to punch him in the face."

Hearing that kind of answer from Oliver, made Sayaka giggle. Since he was being so cute at this moment.

"I see."

Hearing Sayaka say just two words, made Oliver a bit anxious.

...

After they were done with their coffee, Oliver and Sayaka headed to the mall. "So what are we going to do next?"

"As I said a minute ago, I'm going to do some shopping. The first item in the list is some clothes."

While the two of them were waling Oliver was surprised when they finally arrived at their destination.

"You said it was a clothing store! This is not a clothing store, it's an underwear store."

"Well underwear is a type of clothing, so I wasn't lying or anything."

Oliver looked at the different kinds of clothing laid out in rows, or swirling like a vortex into a small hill, or forming their own universe. Oliver was about to bolt but remembered that Sayaka has a hold of his arm.

"I need your preference as a basis for judgment. So why don't you start, tell me which style you'd like me to try?" Sayaka smiled mischievously at Oliver, who was trying hard not to blush.

"I don't have a preference, so buy whatever you want." Oliver answered in a quick pace. Sayaka who was satisfied by Oliver's reaction pulled him into the store. The people in the store seeing the beautiful couple made them feel a bit jealous, of Sayaka.

Oliver was not only muscular but his face was handsome as well. He had a nice body and a nice face, which made the surrounding ladies look at him while smiling and winking at him. Yet Oliver didn't notice them since he was preoccupied with Sayaka picking some underwear and asking him if it would look good on her.

It took a half an hour for Sayaka to pick out the underwear she wanted to buy. All throughout the process, she kept on teasing Oliver.

...

"Okay now that you bought that, what's next?" Oliver felt really exhausted as he said this.

"Next how about we watch a movie?"

"So when you said shopping, you just wanted to buy that?"

"Yeah, do you have a problem with that?"

"No, none at all. So a movie right what do you want to watch?" Oliver was going to say something more, but the cold glint in Sayaka's eyes dissuaded him. Knowing she was an assassin made that look she kept on giving him, make sense.

...

The two were now in front of the ticket booth trying to decide what movie to watch.

"So what do you want to watch?" Oliver was the first to ask.

"You decide I'll watch whatever you want." Oliver was about to answer, but then he remembered something Niel told him before. He said that sometimes a girl says something but ones something else. It was entirely possible that Sayaka was waiting for him to give the perfect answer.

Oliver was about to say something, like 'I wasn't really planning to watch anything, so how about you decide?' But before he could say anything he stopped. This whole event might be a test to see whether he was good enough for her or not. If he couldn't even decide what to watch, she might think he had no opinions.

So once again Oliver decided to be truthful.

"I actually wanted to watch that new action movie, if it's alright with you?"

"Of course it is, I'm also interested in that movie." Seeing how long Oliver thought about what to say before he spoke, made Sayaka think how adorable he was.

...

The two watched the movie and to Oliver's surprise, Sayaka was actually really into it. She even explained about some easter eggs she found here and there in the movie. Turns out she was even more of a movie buff than Oliver, which was more surprising than her being an assassin.

While walking in the mall, they talked about the movie they watched, then their topic shifted to how Kei looked dress up as a girl. They were having so much fun, that Oliver actually forgot about his confession and that he was actually waiting for an answer.

The two of them headed out of the mall and sat on a bench in a nearby park. The sun was setting quite beautifully as they continued talking about random things. Like how was Oliver's sword training going, was he getting good or still the same as before. As well as some harder to deal with topics, like what Sayaka felt when she first killed a person.

The two of them were learning so much more about the other person, and to two of them were surprising each other.

Turns out Sayaka was a fan of old school RPG's, while Oliver kinda liked a kids show about a princess. The two of them talked and talked while laughing at each other's experiences.

"Hey Oliver, before I give you an answer, can you answer one thing." When Sayaka asked this, Oliver finally remembered that he was waiting for Sayaka to answer to his confession of love.

"What is it?" Unlike moments ago, the Oliver right now wasn't as anxious as before.

"Answer me honestly, did you have fun, being with me today?" Oliver saw that Sayaka was actually looking a bit anxious about this, which made him laugh.

"I'm serious here, don't laugh."

"I'm sorry but seeing you so anxious, made me think you really look cute." When Oliver said this, it was Sayaka's turn to blush.

"Whatever just answer the question!" Sayaka was now shouting out of embarrassment.

"Of course I had fun, do you think I would waste my time if I didn't?"

"Are you just saying that, to get me to give you a positive answer to your confession?"

"I thought you said only one thing? Now you're asking two things?" Sayaka pouted when she heard this, which just made Oliver happy to see her like that. Even though she exposed herself and told the others she was an assassin, Sayaka remained the same.

"At this point to me, it doesn't matter if you say yes or no. As long as I can be by your side, I think I'll always have fun. Is that good enough an answer for you?"

Sayaka suddenly hugged him, afterward without warning her lips overlapped with his. This made the laughing Oliver's eyes pop out.

"Now that's my answer." Hearing Sayaka's voice made Oliver snap out of his trance, and he smiled at Sayaka and said, "I didn't quite get that can you please repeat it?"

Sayaka couldn't help but giggle when Oliver said that and proceeded to give him an even deeper kiss.

"Did you get that?"

"Loud and clear." The two of them looked at each other's eyes and started laughing for no reason at all.
