Drip...Drop...
Drip...
Drop...
You watch quietly at the night, water dripping down the ceiling. Each drop hitting the bucket from underneath it in a steady beat. You ran your hair through your lover's dirty blonde locks. His arms tightly lock around your waist as his face lay on your thigh. His gentle breathing toning with the sound of your surroundings, it was so quiet at night compared to earlier this day. But now, here you lay awake looking down at Bardroy's strong features. Usually, you would be sound asleep after such a long day, but your mind was restless. Playing with his locks, you smiled when he nuzzled his face against your thigh and smile at your warmth and gentle care. How you have fallen in love with this man, was a mystery for many people but you wouldn't have it any either way. It's been five months since you met and four since you started dating. But it was fresh in your memory, how he came stumbling inside your father's bakery.
"Bloody hell Finny you almost made me fall!" A voice loudly exclaims from the front of the shop as well with the sound of things falling to the ground. "Sorry! I didn't quite see you there Bard, I'm really sorry!" Your headshot up towards the commotion. Your hands cover in flour as you stop working with dough from the new order of fresh bread. You were in the kitchen working, your father had left you in charge of the bakery while he went out to buy some ingredients. You quickly hurry to the front, peeking your head over the counter to see two males crouching down as they pick up a basket full of bagels that have fallen. One being a younger strawberry blonde boy while the other seemed to be an older man around close to your age. Both of them picking the bagel's in a panic. "Are you two alright?" You quietly spoke as you walked around the counter and stop in front of them. They both stop, being clearly caught as cartoon-like sweat drop appears above their head. "I am terribly sorry ma'am you see what happen here was that my friend over here accidentally knock me over a-" The male cut himself off mid-sentence as he looked up at you. His expression going from a panic one to a flustered/embarrass one. "I uh wow your Beautiful" he blurts out without missing a beat as if just the sight of you took his breath away. His friend looked taken back and look equal as embarrassed by being caught and his friend's bold actions. Your face went light pink at these, "I beg your pardon?" You blurt out with heat rising at your face and ears. The male caught on his own words and was about to begin to drummer before getting hit in the back of the head along with the boy. "Ow mist-" "Sebastian!" They both hold into their heads in pain, a butler dusting himself up as he stood up straight. "My sincere apologies Madam looks like our clumsy employees made a mess of your shop" he gave you a smile as he bowed slightly at you. "Will pay for the ruin pastries" he added pulling a small bag of coins. You looked at it and blinked several times. Your gaze looking over to the two males standing up while still in pain than to the butler in full-on black.
"It's okay, keep it!" You waved his hands away, you were still covered in flour. "It was just an accident, after all, I hold no grudge" you gave him an awkward smile as you peek over to the dirty blonde male. He holds into the basket of bagels as he scratches his neck. "Uh sorry about that.." he mumbled out as he handed it over to you. "It's okay really, please don't feel bad about it. I can always make more" you insisted as you walked over the counter and place it down. "I'm starting to think twice before going out with you two to stores," a younger boy said as he picks up one of your jelly donuts and bites into it. By a quick glance, you could guess this kid was either a noble or crazy rich by his clothes. He hums slightly while he stares at the pastries. "Sebastian order a set of these along with some cakes" he ordered out as he sat down in a chair and kept eating. You grab a rag as the butler walked over to you once more. "Will order 200 hundred boxes of those, oh also what cakes do you have in stock for making?" Your jaw nearly drops as he holds into the rag. "....200?..." You whisper out in disbelief at this, as your soul tried to escape your body. "Is something wrong?" He had a sly smile on your face, the blonde Male let out a cough. Which to his own victory caught your attention. "Huh? Oh no, not at all! I uh where do you want it delivered?" You pull out a piece of paper. You wrote down their information. These sales were going to save you months of bills! You couldn't wait to tell your father about it. They stayed too long for the order, at the same time to let their young Lord taste test the rest of the goodies in your bakery. You kept stealing small glances of the older male from time to time. Debating with yourself as you grab 3 plates of cheesecake and walked over to the table he sat. Along with a female and younger boy.
"Uh hello, you guys care for a taste of cheesecake? It's on the house" you quickly blurt out, your face was heating up by him just staring up at you. His sudden joyful smile at your offer send you flying internally. Why did you find it so attractive?? "Oh, that's fine nice of you!" He said helping you set the plates at the table. You lean forward to place a cup of milk to go with it. Your soft scent of cinnamon and sweet engulf his senses, he couldn't help to take it in as he watches you back away. "It's nothing really, your Master's order is so large that I should be the one being grateful" you let out a small laugh. "I'm Bardroy, people mostly call me Bard. This is Finnian and Meyrin" he motion at the servants, who eagerly waved as they devour the sweets you gave them. "Pleasure meeting you all, I'm Y/n" you introduce yourself. He mumbled out your name back to you, the way it sounded lingered in your ears that even him seemed to taste how it sounded in his own lips. "Nice to meet ya Y/n" he gave you a close eyed smile.
That's how it started, at least from your memories that was your first interaction with the explosive blonde. Soon after as you went to set out deliveries that the young Lord requested, he always seemed to be the first one to greet you or help out. Or be the first one in your store when his visiting town with his colleagues. Soon after he was looking for every little excuse to get a chance to see or speak to you. Until a month later he had swallowed in all the courage and ask you out in a heat of the moment once he got you alone in the kitchen. His face bright red as you hold into a tray of bread. "Come again?" You blurt out thinking you heard wrong. "I said...
Will ya like to go out with me? You don't have to say yes! I just uh really like you and like spending time with you and I think your great and I love that you smell like cinnamon buns-" you place a sweet bun above to stop him from talking. A wide smile covering your face "Bard I'll love too...I would be mad not to say yes" You swore you have never seen that man or any in fact be so happy. "That means I can hug you right?"
"Bard- yes you can hug me" you cut yourself up, soon enough getting brought into a tight embrace.After a few months of dating, you learn plenty of each other, things you wouldn't imagen. How he used to be a soldier and caught in the middle of a war. How Sebastian and the young Lord took him in. How even though his a chef, he's well not that great. But even though he had open up to you about a lot of things you learn to love every little thing that he had to bring. And he loved you equally as well. How you ramble about customers, to discussions about your family. You would be lying if in the middle of your relationship you two wouldn't have gotten scold by the butler catching you two be too loving to each other in the kitchen. But pushing that to the side, everyone seemed to adore you and your cakes so you all got along well.
You chuckled at the memory, your sudden movement woke up Bard from underneath you. "Hmm..?" He rubbed his face on your thigh, which just causes another giggle from you. "Hey..cinnamon..why you awake?" He mumbled out sleepily as he slowly sat up. "I couldn't sleep..." You whisper out, he rubbed his eyes before pulling you into his arms and falling back to bed. "You sure? or was it that I was a position like a knot around your waist?" He slightly joked you hugged him tightly. His framed could easily hide you, compare to him you weren't that small but he made you feel like a tiny little rice bun. You let out a small laugh at your own thoughts. "Hm? What are you giggling at?" He raised a brow, "nothing... it's just that you make me feel so safe Bard..." You mumble out as you let his warmth overtake you. It was slowly sending you to sleep. He could feel his cheeks heat up, "Oi don't be flustered over here" he mumbled out as he hugged you tightly. "I'm glad you do..I promise I'll keep you safe no matter what happens Y/n.." he whispers out as he kisses your temples. "I love you Bard"
"I love you too Cinnamon bun"
