Melissa smiled wide and took a bite. She hummed. “Mm it is really good!”

"We did a wonderful job, Melissa." Ciel grinned at Melissa and took another bite. "This is heaven," she sighed blissfully, eyes closed.

Melissa nodded. "Yeah, we did. Told you you could bake," She said taking another bite.

"I think this was mostly you," Ciel protested, cutting another bite of cake, "but thank you for your vote of confidence," she continued, smiling at Melissa.

Melissa smiled wider blushing slightly. She nodded and took another bite of the cake.

Ciel finished her cake and stood up. Her parents were done as well, and she collected their plates before starting back to the kitchen to clean up a bit more. As she passed Melissa, Ciel gave her a small, bright smile.

Melissa Finished and so did Lili. She took both their plates and brought them into the kitchen right behind Ciel.

Ciel turned on the water and started rinsing off the plates and forks. "I can take those if you want," She offered, turning off the water and holding her hand out for Melissa's plates.

Melissa handed her the plates. “This was really fun,” she said standing next to her.

"It really was." Ciel cleaned off the plates and forks, stacking them all in the sink. "What do you want to do now?" She asked. Ciel knew that Melissa had to leave at some point, but she couldn't remember what time. Hopefully, it wasn't soon.

Melissa checked the time. “I still have a few hours so really whatever,” she said leaning on the counter again. “I can just give Lili my phone and she’ll be busy now that she’s awake.”

Thank goodness, Melissa didn't have to leave soon. "Okay. Oh! Why don't I show you what I have for your necklace? It's not done, but you can tell me what you think about it so far!" Ciel suggested, face lighting up.

“Sure!” Melissa said. “I’d love to see it!” Her smile growing.

"Awesome!" Ciel started up the stairs to her room. Hopefully, Melissa would like the necklace. She walked to her desk and picked up the pendant.

Melissa followed behind Ciel quickly. She couldn't wait to see the necklace.

"Alright, here it is." Ciel turned around and opened her hand to reveal the pendant. It was a delicate thing, with a silver stone carved with a feather in the center. Twisting halfway around it was a frame of thin gold wires, small beads in all the colors of the rainbow woven into it.

“That looks so cool!” She said. “Can I pick it up?” She asked going to take the pendant to get a better view.

"Thanks. And yeah, just be careful of the sharp bits." Ciel pointed to the parts of the pendant where the wires were still unwoven. "You don't want to get poked."

She nodded and picked up the pendant. “Wow this is amazing,” she said her smile growing.

"Thanks." Ciel smiled, her cheeks pink with happiness. Melissa liked it! "Just wait until you see the finished product. It will look beautiful on you."

Melissa blushed slightly and smiled wide. "I can't wait!" She said biting her lip slightly and standing very close to Ciel.

"Wonderful!" Ciel smiled, her heart skipping a beat. She wanted to take another step forward, lean forward, and… do something. She settled for reaching out and– placing her hand awkwardly on Melissa's shoulder. Curses.

Melissa smiled. She wanted to do something as well but she wasn't sure what. You do know you just can't do it. She handed the pendent back to Ciel.

"Thanks." Ciel smiled, keeping her hand on Melissa's shoulder a few seconds longer than she needed to. But she finally accepted the pendant and placed it back on the desk. "So… do you watch any cool TV shows?" Ciel asked, turning back to Melissa. The question was a little out of the blue, but she needed to distract herself. Though watching a TV show or movie with Melissa would be nice…

Melissa nodded. "I recently watched the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina!" She said her smile widening.
