You leaned against the counter in your bakery and sighed out softly, no one had been around these parts of London in two days and business was running slow, the only thing you had encountered in the past 48 hours was bad hair and dust bunnies which made you feel disgusted. You sighed as the fresh cakes in the oven were finished, you went to the kitchen and got the hot and fresh cakes out of the oven.

"Now that's done, I can wait for people to turn up!" Your bright smile soon faded as you looked down "But no one comes here anymore..." You let out a groan as you replaced the cakes on the cake stands in the window, as you were to turn around a pair of bright eyes caught yours and you found yourself staring right into the eyes of a strange male who was staring right back, He blinked and a smile broke out onto his face and he waved very enthusiastically at you, in return you waved back shyly.

You saw him run down the street and catch up with a young boy who was dressed like a royal to you, it was shocking really when you saw a small crowd start coming your way so you quickly jumped over the counter and dusted off your apron, getting ready to serve the people who had just walked into the store. You put on your best smile and greeted them "Hello everyone, welcome to (insert bakery name), it's a pleasure to meet you all, my name is Y/N, how can I help you today?" You clasped your hands together and tilted your head as you watched them all look round, a tall male dressed in black walking to the counter "Ah yes, I've been meaning to come here recently actually to order some cakes for a party we've been needing to plan, is there anything in hand at the moment?" His kinda smile and crimson eyes got to you and you nodded slightly "Of course! Please have a look around" You were avoiding his gaze, you were looking at the smaller blonde male behind him, he smiled more and barged in front of the other male and he leaned on the counter "Hello Y/N! I'm Finny, it's lovely to meet you!" He took your hands and shoo them happily, his smile never leaving his face. "O-Oh my, you are a happy one aren't you?" You giggled and he let go of your hand, face going red. You could see a couple of the others laughing while the butler and the supposed master was shaking their heads in annoyance.

You smiled and Finny grimaced as he was told off "M-My bad! Sorry Sir!" He started babbling apologies this way and that as he cowered in fear at the glare of the butler with crimson eyes. Said butler nudged the blonde male forward and Finny sighed in relief as he soon faced you, blushing rather heavily "W-Would we be able to get one Vanilla sponge cake please? And a tray of your finest cookies" You let out a giggle as you took the order 'what a child' you thought to yourself as you nodded and went to the kitchen. You grabbed the necessary serving items and went to work, you were soon bringing out the order and handing it to Finny "There you go everyone, thank you for coming that'll be..." You tallied the order "five pounds please" The bright eyed male gave you the money and you thanked them once again "Please, do come again" You waved them goodbye as they left through the door. You sighed out and nodded to yourself "A good day of service..."

~A Few Days Later~

Business had been booming the past few days after (as you discovered) the Earl Phantomhive came to visit! He seemed to give a good review and now you were up to your knees in baking and orders, you even had to get a few people to help you and to your surprise the first person to answer your call for help was none other than Finny, you two worked well together, like a nicely oiled machine and after getting his help (he offered voluntarily) you were getting everything sorted like how it had to be, but not before a few issues occured, you had trusted him to do the baking and packaging but everytime he went to put something in a bag or box he'd break the product like it was sand in his hands, he always seemed so nervous and he would panic whenever something went wrong, you were always there to help him out and get him back on track, much to his relief. The main reason he was here with you was because he had fallen for you when your eyes first locked, when you shared your first gaze through the window, his heart had melted, much like yours did in response to his gentle gaze. He had been planning something sicen you had been working together and today after work he was going to act out on his plan "I hope she'll like this..." He held the freshly baked cake in his hands and set it onto a cooling rack "Special just for her!" He went back to filling out orders for a short time before swapping jobs with you at the register and order forms. As you hopped to the kitchen you smiled as the smell of fresh cookies and cakes filled your nose and made your mouth water as it usually did. You got on with the baking and packaging with great ease, working as fast and as swiftly you could you and Finny managed to get the last 10 or so orders done quickly, soon enough you were both sitting in the kitchen, breathing a little heavily and just trying to relax.

"Thank you so much Finny...You have been such a great helper, I dunno what I'd do without you" You smiled softly at him and took a hold of his hand, the males face turned bright red as he nodded in response "O-Oh! You're welcome, it was my pleasure" He smiled more and then looked down, noticing the change in his demeanour you lowered your head a little to look at him "Everything okay?" he glanced up at you as you spoke and he slowly stood up "Yeah! But...There is something I've been meaning to ask you..." His tone was different and you started to get worried as he turned around, shaking. "FInny, are you sure it's all okay?" You watched him nod in response as he turned around, holding a small cake in his hands "Y/N, ever since we first meet, even though it was just through the store window, I-I felt a strong connection with you and I wanted to be with you...I-I took up this job because I wanted to get closer to you and I was wondering if you wanted to u-um..." His cheeks heated up and he looked around nervously, you had an idea of what he was going to as so you took the cake and set it on the counter before pulling him close and pecking his lips softly.

"I'd love to be your girlfriend Finny, thank you...I love you too"
