Finny and I made our way to the garden and I just planted a flower, normally this time. He watched me carefully his gaze following my hands.

"There!"

I said clapping my hands together.

"Now you try."

I watched his shaky hands handle the plants, but eventually planted them correctly.

"Good job!"

I hugged him, and he didn't hug me back.

"I-I did it."

My smile faded.

"Isn't that a good thing?"

He closed his eyes.

"I just had to think of one thing."

I raised my eyebrow.

"What's that?"

He rubbed the back of his neck with his gloved hand.

"I pretended the flowers were you."

I raised my eyebrows,and stood up and looked away red faced.

"I don't understand why you like me Finny. I'm just a girl and nothing else I'm not special."

I heard him gasp I looked around and he was standing up.

"YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO GROW FLOWERS PROPERLY!!! YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL AND STRONG!!! DON'T EVER SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!!"

My eyes widen.

"Finny I-"

He ran into my arms.

"I finally met someone strong like me, and we need to stick together."

I smiled, and pat his head.

"I'll always be here."

He left my arms and plucked a light yellow flower from the ground, and twisted it into a ring.

"Will you be my beloved?"

I stare in shock.

"You wish to court me?!?"

His eyes widen.

"No, no! I want you to be close to me."

I hold back a small laugh.

"In America we call that girlfriend and boyfriend, when you're girlfriend and boyfriend that means you like each other, but it's not marriage."

He smiled.

"Well, will you be my girlfriend?"

A smile etched onto face.

"Of course!"

He smiled and slipped the flower onto my index finger, and jumped into my arms and I dug my fingers into his shirt. He nuzzled his head into my neck like a kitten, and I laughed.

"Finny I have to go for a short moment I promised Ciel I would see him today. Bye Finny!"

I waved at him and jogged into the residence, putting my hair in a tight bun. I walked into Ciel's study and saw Sebastian was gone, and Ciel was sitting at his desk.

"I'm sorry I was a tad late I was teaching Finnian how to plant flowers correctly."

His eye widens.

"In December?"

I nodded.

"It was actually quite nice out today."

A light smile appeared on his face, then twisted into a frown.

"Today we have to interrogate a string of murders that have been going on, and you being the new detective, will join us. "

I nodded my head.

"Of course. Will Sebastian be joining us?"

He nodded his head.

"He's just out for the moment and I-"

He was interrupted by a loud meow. I turn around and I gasp.

"ALASTOR!?!"

I scoop up the black cat and cuddle him up to my chest.

"I thought I'd never see you again."

Ciel looked at Alastor, his face all twisted up.

"Could you please take, Alastor outside? I'm allergic to cats, and I swear it's like Sebastian wants me to break out in hives." (Haha Phantom-Hive haha just me? Okay)

I nodded and I took Alastor outside, and set him on the bench.

"Alastor how have you been?"

He meows in response.

"Ha I have no idea what you even said."

He meows again, and I sit next to him on the bench.

"Hmm, well Alastor I honestly don't know what's going on. I got hit by a carriage today if that says anything. I also have to go on this case with Ciel and Sebastian, and I have to say I'm nervous."

I scratched behind Alastor's ears.

"Well last case didn't end up how I wanted it to, and in fact I met long people from when I was younger, but I have to say though they both had great hair."

I laughed in sadness a tear making its way down my cheek. Alastor looked me in the eyes and the hair on my neck stood on end.

"What am I even saying? I don't really know what Sebastian thinks of me either, and that really bothers me. I look over at him and he's staring at me, and I don't know what that means. Does he not like me? Did he only save me because Grell and I were wrecking the garden? That kiss on the cheek he gave me?"

I placed my hand on my cheek.

"Was he just messing with my head?"

His red eyes glinted.

"Alastor I have to go I need to think about things. See you again soon."

I jogged up the stairs.

What am I going to do

~Later~

It was very quiet, and I could feel the awkward tension between Sebastian and I. It was late about eleven, and we were walking in the dark alleyways of London when we heard a giggle. I look forward and see Grell.

"Ugh you!"

I say in disgust and he smiles.

"Oh my dear please don't say that.  Last time when you pummeled me into the ground I felt a spark didn't you? Bassy never hit me that hard."

I let out a laugh.

"In your dreams."

He smiled showing his razor sharp teeth.

"Ooh hard to get. I like-"

"You leave her alone!"

Sebastian growled.

Grell adjusted his cherry red glasses.

"Now that makes me want her even more."

Ciel scoffed.

"I thought you only liked men."

He giggled.

"The correct term is bisexual."

Ciel looked confused.

"Huh?"

Grell leapt in front of me and pointed to a bruise on his face.

"I still have a bruise on my face from when you punched me! I'll treasure it 'till it leaves!"

He stared into my eyes.

"You have such lovely eyes my dear."

I scrunched up my nose.

"You're a creep!"

He grabbed my shoulders and pushed me against the wall.

"I know you don't mean that. Can I have at least a tiny kiss?"

I smirked.

"Keep on dreaming."

I wiggled my arm from his grip, and slapped him in the face and he fell to the ground.

"Ooo fiesty she is-"

"Why are you here Grell!"

Sebastian interrupted 

"I just want to help you find the killer Bassy. And by the look of it Bassy's jealous."

Sebastian frowned.

"We don't need your help, goodbye."

Sebastian said boldly shooing his hand.

I sighed.

"Sebastian as much as I hate to say it we might need him, so he needs to stick around."

Grell flashed a grin.

"Thank you my dear!"

I sighed.

"Don't even start or I won't hesitate to kill you."

Heart eyes appeared in Grell's eyes.

"Don't worry about me, but I won't help unless I get something in return."

I growled.

"What do you want?"

He looked around and pointed at my wrist.

"Can I have your ribbon?"

I frowned.

"No, but you can have this."

I undid my hair tie and my hair fell elegantly to my shoulders. I could sense even more tension, as I held my hair tie in my hand and handed it to Grell, who was entranced by my hair.

"Here I made this myself it's called a ponytail, you can put your hair in different styles like this."

I walked over to Grell and put his long red hair in a ponytail.

"Ooo I love it and it's yours too which makes it even better!"

He started dancing around, and I growl.

"Please just help us."

Grell nodded and we walked deeper into the alleyway.

Grell started to run.

"This way!"

We all followed him into a dead end, and he was gone.

"Damn."

I growl.

I heard a faint laugh and saw Grell's chainsaw hurled towards Ciel and Sebastian, and I screamed.

"Ciel! Sebastian!"

I rushed over and pushed them out of the way with no hesitation, and felt a tearing burning in my stomach. I look down and see Grell's chainsaw coming out of my stomach, I feel it pulled it out from my back and I scream in pain falling to the ground. My hair and the ground stained with my blood.
