First of all there nothing between Kirito and Alice. The feelings from Alice towards Kirito (firstly admiration/wanting to protect, then more romantic feelings) are solely one-sided. Kirito cares about Alice as for a friend and comrade (similar to Liz, Sinon, Silica etc), but surely there is nothing romantic from him for Alice. Asuna is jealous/annoyed because Alice, contrary to the rest girl, doesn't want to back off and tries to be close to Kirito. However, please keep in mind that the author of the LN many times said that he finds jealous Asuna cute - ergo, those scenes of mostly as a comedy relief, nothing that should be taken 100% sersiuly. Further, as of the latest vol (21), the situation seemed to cool down regarding Alice "aggressiveness"
