      Shopping, shopping, shopping, you've done nothing today but shop. You've been to almost every store in London by now, and if it wasn't for the rain, you'd still be out browsing around the shops you just missed. Hopefully, this won't be a thunder- BOOM -storm! You absolutely loath thunderstorms. They are loud and scary and could be deadly. You and your sister got caught up in a thunderstorm once, and a tree fell on her. Broke both of her legs and almost killed her, scared both of you into not ever going into thunderstorms again.

      The carriage that was taking you home stopped abruptly and the door was practically ripped open. A calm butler with a smile on his face stood aside with his hand out for me to grab it. "Sebastian," you said while taking his hand and he helped me out with an umbrella over my head, "you didn't need to come out here in the rain for me." 

      "On the contrary," Sebastian said with a kind smile, "if I didn't, your fiancee might have killed me," Sebastian told you while he walked you up to the door.

      "Ciel?" You asked with a small smile, "oh, what for?" A sudden clap of thunderstruck and your shoulder instantly went up to your ears and your hand to your mouth to stop the squeal. 

      Being polite, Sebastian didn't mention this. "For staying out all day, he is quite worried for your safety," Sebastian explained with the same smile never falling.

      "I didn't think Ciel could get worried," you snickered as Sebastian opened the door, your face dropped. Behind the door, Ciel was pacing around with his hair all messed up and jacket along with his cane thrown on the stairs. "Hehe, I stand corrected," you giggle, putting a hand up to your mouth. Sebastian then closed the door and the warmth of the manor engulfed you. You hadn't realized just how cold you were.

      "Where were you!" Ciel asked while rushing up to you and throwing his arms around you, "You missed dinner."  Your eyes widened on their own and your mouth dropped as well. Who knew that Ciel Phantomhive could have emotions?  Once you realized that he was hugging you, you instantly hugged back.

      "Ciel, darling, not that I don't love the affection," you said with a warm smile and backing away from the hug, "but, is everything alright?"

      "Yes," Ciel said while brushing off his shirt. You gave Ciel a stern look while folding my arms, "no, the queen ordered me to go after a serial killer, the serial killer is going after teenagers with (s/c), (e/c), and (h/c)." Ciel went over to grab his jacket and cane by the stairs, to hide his blush of course. Sure you were going to be married, but it was arranged, and Ciel wasn't going to let anyone know that he might have actual feelings for you. At least, not anyone that could hurt you. 

    "Oh Ciel," you said while walking past him and up the stairs, "you are too cute." Then,  there was a clap of thunder. You squeaked out a noise and then rushed up to your room.

   "Hopefully, he didn't hear that," you quietly said to yourself as you closed the door to your room. You quickly changed into one of your more comfortable dresses without a corset and fixed your hair so it was naturally down. Then you made your way back down to the kitchen.

   There you found Sebastian preparing something. "What are you cooking for?" You asked. You knew that he was capable of cooking, but he normally didn't unless Bard messed something up.

   "My young master had asked me to prepare you both something small to eat," Sebastian sternly told me, he seemed to be bothered by something but you couldn't put my finger on it. "If you would like to eat with him, you can find him in his study," Sebastian said with a smile while cutting up what looked to be fish with a crispy exterior.

   "Alright then, thank you," you said with a returning smile and began to make your way towards Ciel's study. This manor is bigger than your home, and it took a few weeks to get the hang of the twist and turns of this place. But, Ciel was very helpful with it all.

   All of a sudden, lightening crashed and thunder boomed. Your shoulders jolted to your ears and you stood straight as a board. You caught a glimpse of a table in the hallway and dove under it. There, you covered your head and ears with you hands. Thunder boomed again.

    If Ciel had ever seen you like this, huddled under a table desperately grabbing at your head with tears running down your face, it would be so embarrassing you would pack up your things and go. Thunder boomed and a bright light flashed. Then a warm light flooded onto you. "Y/n?" Ciel said in a monotone voice.

   "Please leave-" a clap of thunder and a flash of light left you speachless. Your whole body stiffened and your eyes closed tightly. No words escaped your mouth. As you sat there terrified and embarrassed.

   Ciel didn't say anything, but you could feel him move and sit down next to you. He carefully put his arm around your shoulders and dragged you into his chest. He laid his head into yours and stayed there. He stayed there with you for the next twenty minutes until Sebastian forced the two of you up and dragged you too to Ciel's room. Normally you would sleep in your own room, but Ciel didn't want you out of his sight. So, for the first time, you slept in the same bed.

   Ciel held you close and tight whenever thunder boomed. He held you close and tight and lovingly until he heard your quiet steady breathing. He knew you were asleep and no longer scared, he was finally able to get some good sleep that night.
