The first stop we made is at London’s Cake Shop. Undertaker and I really haven’t stopped holding hands since we left our place. I know he is worried I’ll end up leaving him for god knows whatever reason, but I know I would never leave him.

As we arrived to the shop, Sebastian helps Ciel out from the carriage, and Undertaker goes next before helping me out as well. When he closes the door, he again takes my hand.

Watching the others enter through the doors, I quickly stop and turn towards Undertaker. “Is everything okay?” He asks worriedly. “Come here.” I say quietly as I pull him directly in front of me. Using my free hand to move part of his hair, I then take hold of his other hand and look directly in his eyes. What I had saw was pain, and he begins to look away from me.

“Darling, look at me.” He hesitates to listen, but he does so anyway. “Can you tell me what is going on? I promised you I would never leave you, but you are still acting like I will! Is there something you’re not telling me? Did you do something that you think would cause me to leave?”

“Amora, I would never do anything that would cause me to lose you-”

“Then what is the problem?!” I’ll admit, my tone ended up being more aggressive than I had intended, but he is really starting to worry me. I then let out a sigh. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to sound so... Aggressive, but you are really starting to worry me! Will you tell me what is going on?”

“Undertaker, Amora, are you two coming in or what?” Ciel again interrupts. I step aside to look at him as I answer. “Ciel, we’ll be right in. Just give us a minute, please?” I watch him go back inside before I stand back in front of Undertaker.

“I’m worried. I’ve been having this feeling all morning, Amora! No matter what I do, I can’t push these feelings aside! I know you say you wouldn’t leave me... But the feelings keep getting stronger as time goes on...” His voice cracks as he struggles to continue on, and he uses his sleeve to wipe away his tears. I immediately pull him into a hug, and he wastes no time to wrap his arms around me as well.

Once I feel him begin to settle down, I pull away just slightly and look back into his eyes. “Baby, could there be a chance this has anything to do with what happened last night? I trust that you would never cheat on me. You’ve never forced yourself onto me or done anything to hurt me. Those would be the only reasons I would ever leave you. The only thing I could think of would be last night that could have you feeling this way. And if that is the case, I am just fine and that’s all thanks to you, my love.”

He looks around quick before looking back down to me. “Maybe you’re right. I suppose that would make sense... I’m not interested in any other woman but you, and I could never do anything that would hurt you in any way. It does make complete sense, however, I still don’t think that’s the cause of it. But there wouldn’t be any other reason except...”

“Except what?” I asked in confusion. “Nothing, don’t worry about-”

“Undertaker, don’t lie to me either! What is it?” I demanded. “Except for those who are constantly after you! Perhaps the feelings I’m having of losing you could be them succeeding-”

“But it can’t happen without a death scythe!” I whisper shouted. “I’m not talking about death, Amora! With them succeeding on taking you away from me again! No, that won’t happen either, I absolutely refuse.”

“Undertaker-” I tried saying, but he suddenly grabs hold of my face and crashes his lips onto mine, throwing me off guard. Once I realized what was happening, I relaxed my body and started kissing him back.
