Summary: Fred meets a florist
~~~
>Today is a regular day in London, and it is also Fred's day off, so he decides to stroll around London and enjoy some time away from Moriaty's household.
>When he walks down the streets, there is a certain shop that has captured Fred's eye, but it is not what has caught his attention.
>The one who drew his attention was the florist, a man of the same age as him, who was watering the plant right outside the flower shop.
>Fred couldn't help but notice how gorgeous the guy was; he had [long/short] hair with (H/c) hair and a stunning pair of (E/c) eyes, and finally, he had a beautiful grin on his beautiful face.
>Fred could sense the heat on his face.
>The (H/c) haired male notices Fred and waves hello before giving him a surprised look when the florist notices how red Fred is before Fred flees.
>Leaving the poor florist perplexed, asking if Fred is okay.
>The next day, Fred decides to stroll around London again to pay a visit to the flower shop from the day before, but much to his chagrin, Sebastian decides to accompany him because he wants to buy some alcohol.
>When they walked, they had no idea that the florist would be fighting with a nobleman who seemed to be older than all of them.
>The noble male tries to pull the florist along with him, and you can see how frightened the florist is, causing Fred and Sebastian to stare at each other.
"I said no! Let your hands off of me!"
"I said you were coming with me, you worthless brat!"
Sebastian and Fred both heard the shouting from both of the males, which left each of them irritated at how the noble works these days. With that, Sebastian takes the noble's hand, gripping it so tightly that it forces the noble to let go of the florist, and Fred rushes to his side, dragging him away from both Sebastian and the noble.
"What the fuck? What the heck do you think you're doing?"
Meanwhile, with Fred and the florist, the florist stares at Fred, who is looking at his comrade who is treating the noble and casts a glance at the florist. "Are you okay?" Fred inquires, and the florist nods before Fred dragging the florist into the store.
>After Sebastian has resolved the issue with the noble, the florist named [Name] immediately thanks both males for saving him from the noble.
>The explanation that noble has bothered [Name] is that he wants [Name] to be his personal gardener, and of course, [Name] declines the proposal.
>Which this noble couldn't help but feel ashamed for whatever reason—which it isn't—and try to convince [Name] to go with him.
>And, of course, Fred said this to Moriatys' brothers, who looked surprised when Fred said he wanted this noble to leave [Name]'s life
"Eh, buy my store? But that is the only shop I have from my deceased family." [Name] replied, clenching his tea cup in his fist as he struggled to process what the noble in front of him had just said.
"I understand, but wasn't it better to keep the noble from bothering you?"
[Name] blinks.
"I say, he'll do anything to force you to cooperate for him. So, the only way to save him from bothering you is for me to buy your shop while you continue to work in YOUR business. If that noble inquires about it, simply tell him that I just purchased it."
[Name] sat there staring at the nobles, uncertain what to do, before he felt a hand on his back. [Name] casts a look at the owner of the side, Fred, who smiles at him before smiling reassuringly at the florist.
"Do not be worried. Trust me when I say that William would never hurt a commoner."
>As a result, Moriaty's family purchased [Name]'s store
>When the noble from before learned of this news, he rushed up to the florist and yelled, demanding an explanation.
>[Name] told everything and decided to continue working in Moriaty's new store.
>Aside from that, [Name] is unable to speak about the deal he made with one of Moriaty's brothers.
>Fred and Sebastian, who were nearby, saw both [Name] and the noble debating before the noble huffed and left.
>[Name] sighed as the three of them watched the noble walk furiously away from them before smiling at both Fred and Sebastian.
>"Thank you," [Name] expressed gratitude.
>And Sebastian snickered when he saw Fred's red face before groaning in pain when he felt Fred practically elbow him in the gut.
"Where do I place this, [Name]?"
"Oh, place it next to the roses."
"Ok, got it."
After a week of negotiating with Moriaty's brothers to stop the noble from harassing [Name], the said male has been operating happily, and Fred has always assisted him.
Since [Name] doesn't want to leave the shop without someone to look after, Fred still does the delivery for customers.
"Hey [Name], are you going to be free after this?" Fred inquires, and [Name] blinks. "I believe so. Is there a problem?" As he stood there nervously, Fred could feel blood rush to his head. "Would you want to join me for dinner?" [Name] blinks, blushes, and nods shyly at the invitation.
"I-I-I would love too..."
Meanwhile, Moriaty's family, who are watching from afar, couldn't help but laugh, and they can't wait to congratulate the new couple.
