Amai Shi, My Sweet Death (An Undertaker Love story)

Chapter 6

Thank you all so much for being so patient with me! As promised, here's chapter 6!!! Enjoy!!!

Amai pov

It's been a few days since the kiss. Undertaker hasn't really been speaking to me. ~Does he regret kissing me? What if he wants me to leave? I don't think I can handle him wanting me to leave. I think... I think I love him...~ I sighed. Sebastian keeps showing up around the shop. He's constantly bringing me gifts such as flowers and candy. Undertaker doesn't seem to like this, I'm not sure why. Sebastian seems really nice. I thought that all demons were supposed to be heartless and selfish. I guess I was wrong.

"Amai, could you come in here please?" called the Undertaker from the front of the shop. I hurried up to see him. "Y-yes?" I couldn't look at him or be near him without stuttering or blushing. "We're running low on formaldehyde. I'm rather busy at the moment and I can't go out to buy some. Could you do it? The place where I get it isn't very far from here." Undertaker said without looking up from his work. I nodded. "Hai. Sh-should I take the carriage?" I asked. He nods and hands me a bag with money inside. I bow and head for the door. Before I can even touch the door handle, Undertaker grabs my arm. "Be careful, Amai." He says. I nod once and he releases my arm.

*Later*

I bought quite a bit of formaldehyde and it was all loaded in the carriage. The man who sold it to me thought that it was odd that I'm the Undertaker's apprentice. "Miss Amai?" I heard a familiar voice say. I turned around and saw Sebastian with Ciel. "Hello." I said with a bow. Ciel bowed awkwardly. "What are you doing here?" Ciel asked. " I'm getting supplies for the shop. Undertaker is too busy with work, so he sent me." I answered quietly. I'm still not used to talking to anyone other than Undertaker. "I see. Would you like to join us for some tea at the town house?" Ciel asked, his face growing a bit red. "I d-don't think I should. I have to help Undertaker with work. Gomen (sp?)." I said bowing. "Hmmm. That's too bad. I was hoping you could join us." Sebastian said, winking at me. "Indeed." Ciel said, sending Sebastian a glare and smacking his arm. "I-I should really go. It was nice seeing the both of you." I said bowing. "We'll be seeing you soon, Miss Amai." Sebastian says.

Sebastian pov

That Amai has one of the purest souls I have ever seen. Not only that, but she's beautiful as well. I've been sending her gifts, but she simply isn't falling for me like other women would. This girl is different. I must have her. What I want, I get. I want her. She WILL be mine. (Cue evil laugh and lightning in the background)

*Back at the shop* 3rd pov

Undertaker was helping Amai unload the carriage. Neither of them spoke. Amai couldn't take the silence anymore. She turned to the Undertaker and spoke. "Did I do something to upset you? Why aren't you speaking to me anymore? What did I do wrong?" Amai asked, her voice getting louder and more upset by the end. Undertaker was taken back. Amai never speaks loudly. "I'm not mad. Why would you think that?" Undertaker asked, stopping what he was doing. "You won't speak to me. You barely look at me anymore." Amai says quietly. She takes a breath. "Do you regret it?" she asks. "Regret what?" Undertaker asks, getting closer to her. "Kissing me." she says almost inaudibly. The mortician instantly takes the small girl in his arms and kisses her head. "Of course I don't regret kissing you! I thought you regretted kissing me. I thought that you didn't want me around anymore." Undertaker said, holding Amai close and smoothing her hair. Amai looked up. "I don't regret it. I thought you wanted to get rid of me." Amai said quietly. The Undertaker chuckled, "Hehe, I suppose we were both being rather silly, huh? -he kisses her forehead- I have a surprise for you and I hope you'll like it." Amai smiles. "What is it?" she asks. "Kehehehe, silly girl. If I told you, it wouldn't be much of a surprise, now would it?" he says, holding her closer. Amai sighs in defeat, causing the mortician to laugh. He kisses her forehead. "Go get changed and then meet me in the front of the shop." Amai reaches up and pecks him on the lips and hurries upstairs to get changed.

Undertaker pov *earlier that day*

Amai has been acting odd lately. Ever since the kiss, she's been more quiet and distant. ~Does she regret the kiss? Does she want to leave?~ The demon butler has been showing up more than I'd like. He's constantly giving Amai gifts. I think she likes him. ~Maybe she wants to leave with him...~ He may be a funny lad, but I don't want him near her. I had an idea. ~I'm going to surprise Amai and take her somewhere. I need her out of the shop for a while, but where do I send her?~ I had the perfect plan.

"Amai, could you come in here please?" I called out. I heard her coming and I focused on the body I was working on. ~I can't look at her right now. I might give something away...~ "Y-yes?" she says quietly. "We're running low on formaldehyde. I'm rather busy at the moment and I can't go out and buy some. Could you do it? The place where I get it isn't too far from here." I said, not looking up. "Hai. Sh-should I take the carriage?" Amai asked. I nodded and handed her a bag with money. Amai took the bag and headed for the door. I grabbed her arm before she could reach the door. "Be careful, Amai." I say. She nods and I release her arm. I go back to my work and finish the body.

*Later*

Everything is ready for Amai and I'm helping her unload the carriage. ~I hope she likes my surprise. Hopefully she changes her mind about wanting the demon.~ "Did I do something to upset you? Why aren't you speaking to me anymore? What did I do?" Amai asks, her voice getting loud. ~She thinks I'm mad? I thought she was mad!~ "I'm not mad. What makes you think that?" I asked her. "You won't speak to me. You barely look at me anymore." she says quietly. "Do you regret it?" she asks. I was confused. "Regret what?" I ask. "Kissing me." Amai says so silently, I can barely hear her. My eyes widen at this and I instantly taker her in my arms. I kiss her head and hold her close. "Of course I don't regret kissing you! I thought you regretted it. I thought you didn't want me around anymore." I said as I stroked her hair. Amai looks up. "I don't regret it. I thought you wanted to get rid of me." I chuckle, "Hehe, I suppose we were being rather silly, huh? -I kiss her forehead- I have a surprise for you and I hope you'll like it." I said, smiling at Amai. She smiles. "What is it?" she asks. "Kehehehe, silly girl. If I told you, it wouldn't be much of a surprise, now would it?" I said with a laugh. Amai sighs in defeat, causing me to laugh. I kiss her forehead. "Go get changed and meet me in the front of the shop." I say. Amai pecks my lips and hurries upstairs. I hurry and get everything ready.

3rd pov

The silver haired mortician was happily waiting outside for his lovely lady to come outside. After a few minutes, Amai Shi walked outside. The young girl was smiling and had a light blush on her face. Her blush deepened when her violet eyes met the Undertaker's green/yellow eyes. He laughed and kissed her cheek. The Undertaker held the carriage door open for her and she stepped inside. The mortician closed the door and climbed onto the driver seat. The carriage was driven away into the moonlit night. Little did the two lovebirds know that they were being watched and the spectator was not happy.

Dun duun duuuuun!! Who do you think the spectator is? Is it Sebby? Ciel? A purple mutated squirrel??? Haha, I hope you guys enjoyed this chappie! I have a few things planned out for the next chappie, so you can expect one soon! Thanks for sticking with me for so long!!
