...before reaching out to Alan. She knew he was the right one for her. Ever since she watched the sunset at the academy with him, she was attracted to him, despite her not noticing it at first. But after thinking about him several times, she realized that she has indeed fallen for him and wish to chose him. To be honest, Kiana had already suspected that she might have grown feelings for him during her second year in the magic academy, but after the mission to rescue Keith, she finally accepted that she is indeed in love with him.
Upon placing her hand on Alan's hand, the said male smiled happily, before slowly pulling her towards the middle of the ballroom. In the corner of her eye, she saw how sad and disappointed both Nicol and Geordo looked while they looked back at her. 'I'm sorry Nicol and Geordo...I'll have to make it up to them later.' She thought to herself, before focusing back on Alan, who started guiding her to dance with him. Everyone in the room was staring at them, some were jealous and some were fangirling. The lights dimmed in the room, before the spotlight was placed on them.
"I'm glad..that you chose me, Kiana." He said after leaning in closer, as Kiana blushed slightly, before she suddenly remembered what she was planning to do. "Alan, would you let me take the lead? There's something I've been preparing." She said with a spark in her eyes, making Alan confused but curious. "Sure? Just make sure you don't step on my feet." He said jokingly, making Kiana chuckle and smile at him before starting to lead him. As they started twirling around, a crystal platform started forming under them, slowly raising them into the air as they twirled and danced in the air. The platform moved with them in the air as they danced so that they wouldn't fall.
Everyone gasped in awe and shock at the crystal platform, along with gasping at Kiana's hair and dress that started changing colors. Her hair slowly started changing when the platform started rising, along with her dress. Alan watched her with utter shock but still let her lead him as they danced in the air, before twirling Kiana. When he did, her whole dress sparkled and changed completely as the room became a bit cold, before he pulled her back closer to him.
Here's the dress!!
"You look..you look so majestic." Alan muttered out, making Kiana smile brightly. "I'm glad you like it, I've been practicing this 'stunt' since I got better. I managed to learn how to maintain my- uh..white-haired state for a long time." She replied back, making him chuckle. "That was really cool, honestly. I'm sure the people down there are like mind blown!" He said, making her look down, seeing multiple people looking up at them in wonder. "I guess so." She said while laughing a bit.
"Shall we go back down?" Kiana asked back after a few seconds, which Alan nodded at. They started twirling again as the platform slowly lowered to the ground. Suddenly, Alan placed his hand behind Kiana's head and leaning in, making her eyes widen and blush, before their lips came in contact. It was as if time had slowed down when they closed their eyes and shared a passionate kiss. When they got to the ground, the platform disappeared into mist while everyone clapped and cheered for them. They soon pulled away, before they pressed their foreheads touched against each other's.
"Does this mean..you're mine now?" He spoke up quietly, making Kiana giggle. "Mhm.." She said, making him smile proudly, before they both pulled away and Alan decided to ruffle her hair. Kiana was soon attacked by compliments and questions from multiple people, catching her off guard, while Alan laughed at her. Kiana managed to see Nicol and Geordo giving her a small smile in the corner of her eye, before they walked away.
A few hours later, everyone had gone back, since it was getting late. The girls were going to a spare room that Geordo agreed to let them stay at for a sleep over. Alan had to talk to some people, so he went away a few minutes ago. "Hey Sophia, where did Nicol go?" Kiana asked Sophia, who thought for a bit. "Oh, I remember him telling me that he's going to the balcony near the ballroom with Geordo." She replied back.
"I see, I need to apologize to both of them so tell the others to go ahead alright?" Kiana said to Sophia, who gently smiled back at her and nodded, before Kiana took off to the ballroom's balcony. While she ran, her hair and dress slowly returned back to original, but she paid no mind to it. She soon arrived there and saw them conversing under the moonlight. "Nicol, Geordo," She said while walking into the moonlight, making them turn around to her in surprise.
"K-Kiana.." Geordo said, panicking. "Hey.." She said while scratching the back of her neck. "Kiana..I thought you were getting ready for the sleepover?" Nicol asked, making her gulp. "Well..I just wanted to talk to you two first." She replied while going between them and taking a look at the view of the kingdom. It was quiet for a bit, before she sighed.
"I'm sorry I didn't choose one of you as my fiancee..I had a hard time deciding, to be honest. I hope we can still be good friends, even after this. Maybe in another dimension, I might have chosen someone different." Kiana tried to reason with them as they quietly listened, before Geordo sighed.
"Don't worry, we're not mad or anything at all. Well, you could say we are kind of sad. But of course we'll still be friends, I just hope it won't be awkward every time we meet or talk. It might take a while for our feelings to go away though." Geordo said while smiling sadly at the moon. "I agree with Geordo. Even after all of this, I'd still want to be a good friend of your's. And I respect your decision of choosing Alan as well. I hope you have a good relationship with him." Nicol said after looking down at the view, trying not to get emotional. At this point, Kiana was also trying not to cry.
"Yeah..we'll always be there if you need advice- AND TELL US IF ALAN DOES ANYTHING STUPID" Geordo said, making her laugh with tears in her eyes. "But really though, you can tell us." Nicol said with a smile, which Kiana nodded at. "I will, don't worry..." She replied back, before sniffling and hugging both of them, catching them off guard.
"Thank you for being there for me when I needed you guys too." She said as a tear slid down her cheek. That was the last straw for Geordo and Nicol, before they started crying as well, after returning the hug. Geordo tried to wipe his tears away while avoiding eye contact when Kiana pulled away, but the tears wouldn't stop. Meanwhile, Nicol just silently cried while looking away. "Just know that I'll also be here if you need to talk to someone." Kiana said while patting both of their heads.
Both of the males smiled back to her while their tears were still flowing down their cheeks. "I'll let you guys be, the girls are probably waiting for me." Kiana said while wiping her tears, before smiling at them.
They sighed and nodded, before waving at her as she started walking away. Geordo and Nicol both watched her walk away, still longing for her touch, but knew it wasn't possible anymore.

"Do you, Alan Stuart, take Kiana Claes, as your lawfully wedded wife?" The wedding officiant asked Alan, who smiled. "I do." He replied back, before the wedding officiant looked at Kiana. "And do you, Kiana Claes, take Alan Stuart as your lawfully wedded husband?" The wedding officiant asked Kiana. "I do." She said while smiling and tears forming in her eyes. "You may now kiss the bride!" The wedding officiant said, before Alan gently pulled Kiana closer and shared a passionate kiss with her as the gigantic crowd cheered for the newly married couple. They pulled away and Alan picked up Kiana in bridal style as both of them laughed happily.
It's been about 5 months since they graduated, and a month ago since Geordo became the new king. Mary easily agreed to break off the engagement and finally fell in love with a wealthy and decent looking guy, who she will be getting married to in a month or two as well. Nicol, also managed to fall in love with frey, who once met him when he was looking for a fiancee back then.
Sophia chose to stay single, along with Maria. Surprisingly, Geordo managed to somehow fell in love with Catarina again and asked her if she would accept his marriage offer again, hoping to start again. Catarina took some time to think about it properly, before deciding to give Geordo a try. Keith still liked Catarina, but being the successor of the Claes, he needed to get married to someone else, so he got married to Ginger. Unexpectedly, the two somehow clicked after a month of being married together. Now they were a very loving couple.
Everyone had undeniably gotten more and more busy, but they made sure to meet once in two weeks to hang out. No doubt, working at the Magical Ministry was hard for Kiana, along with Catarina, Maria, Sora and Raphael, but they didn't mind it.
Raphael and Sora also stayed single, making the Magical Ministry their top priority. Kiana and them were good friends, but good work mates as well. Both Kiana and Alan were hoping to get a child in the future soon...or even more! Who knows? It all depends on the future.
But this..was the story, of Kiana Claes.
