* When you're with Saltbaker, you feel a little less insecure about your body, but you still have your moments where you wish your body was slimmer than what you had to offer, when you talked to him about your body concerns once during your first months into dating, he went on for hours about how great you were and why your body shape didn't matter, not to mention bringing up his image and his own concerns

*If you're feeling down about the way you look, talk to him, don't hide it from him. He'll listen, offer advice, and things you could do together to add some healthy habits into your lives, if not for your appearance do it for your health, he wants to live a nice long life with you.

*he loves resting his head in your stomach, leaving kisses against it as well to show there's no shame in having a round belly, and he'd love for you to do the same in return

*One of his favorite nicknames to call you is his soft marshmallow as long as you're okay with it, he doesn't wanna be hurtful towards you if you don't like it, but just know he means in a sense that he loves how soft you are like a marshmallow pillow

You looked in the mirror with a small sigh, followed by a frown at how your stomach stood out from the clothes you were wearing.

It was supposed to be a fancy date night between you and Saltbaker, there was a new restaurant that opened up and he wanted to take you out to it, seeing it had an open patio with romantic lighting, and despite being new, the food was to die for, which happened to be perfect seeing as Saltbaker had gone out of his way to surprise you with a new outfit for this occasion when he mentioned the idea, you had to admit, it made you a little nervous thinking about it, you didn't wanna embarrass him somehow

"Oh, Torta al Miele!~" (Honey cake in Italian) you heard Saltbaker call out from the other side of the room "Are you ready to go? We don't wanna miss our reservation!"

You had to psych yourself to face him before opening up the door with your best confident smile when you saw his face, he was wearing a black tuxedo with a cute bowtie, when he saw you in your outfit, his eyes widened and his face became a light shade of pink as his bowtie did a few circles. He seemed rather stunned by your appearance, seeing as he just stood there looking you up and down for a hot minute, you could've sworn you heard his heart beating for miles.

"Does it look that bad?" You jokingly asked, rubbing the back of your neck as you saw him catch himself and then shake his head as he cupped your face

"My dearest, You look absolutely stunning to me.. You know that.." He said leaving a few kisses against your forehead, your sweet giggles music to his non-existent ears before his lips finally found yours and he held you in a deep passionate kiss, which you only returned half-heartedly.

When he pulled away, you could see the worry in his eyes as he searched over your face, the jolly loving expression he had before now shifted into one with worry.

"My dear.. What's wrong?" He asked, his glass thumb lightly caressing your face as you looked away from him

"It's just.. I can't help but wonder if I embarrass you.." You just decided to flat out say what's been bothering you lately, there was really no point in hiding it at the moment, you needed to get it off your chest anyway

"Embarrass me? Love why would you think that?" He asked, his arms wrapping tight around you "I love you so much.. Nothing you could say or do could ever embarrass me.."

"But.. My weight.. Don't you think I'm.. Fat?" You asked, the word stung your heart as you continued, looking down at the fat on your belly, tears forming in your eyes "i-i'm not really.. That attractive, I eat too much and it's so hard to lose weight.. I don't understand why you still put up with me.."

"Y/n..." He tilted your head up so you looked at his sad smile "my dearest love.. Why do you worry about looks? You know I myself am rather large in appearance.. But did you fall in love with my body?" He asked, the sadness before melting into love as he looked into your eyes

"Well.. Yes to be honest" you answered him honestly, giving a small smile "There's nothing wrong with your body.. But I also love your personality.. And how sweet you are.."

"And the same goes for you as well my darling, much like you for me, I fell in love with you wholey.. Your body, your personality, your quirks, everything" he held you tight, this time, you hugged him back hiding your face into his shoulder as tears slipped past your eyes

"Please don't ever think of yourself as unattractive.. It's important to know that outside looks aren't what defines a beautiful person, but more so on the inside and the fact that you're happy" When he looked at your face, he helped wipe away your tears with one hand, and leaving a sweet kiss against your nose for good measure, he felt his heart swell up with joy when you smiled

"Do you want to stay home? We don't have to go out if you don't want to.." He asked, to which you shook your head

"No it's okay..I'd hate for your efforts to be in vain.. You did all this for me after all, no point in wasting it all" With that, you didn't waste any time in pressing your lips to his, which had caught him off guard seeing as he was usually the one instigating any kisses between the two of you, but he couldn't really complain..

He was just happy to know you had more confidence in yourself to do so.

When you pulled away from him, you could see the lovestruck gaze in his eyes, making you laugh a little as you pulled him along out the door to enjoy your romantic passion filled evening
