~Undertaker~
He laughs.
Laughs a lot until you get mad at him and attempt to walk away.
He grabs you before you can leave and attempts to apologize, but you don't seem convinced.
Undertaker doesn't truly believe you fell for someone like him.
People tended to stay away from him because ...well...he deals with the dead! (It is his occupation, plus he's a shinigami)
Once he sees how serious you are, he grins, pulling you close by your waist and holding up one of your hands as he starts to sway you into a slow waltz.
Despite his long, silver bangs covering his eyes, there's a hint of happiness swirling in his green orbs. He feels somewhat alive again. You're bringing color to his dark, melancholy life.
Undertaker does warn you that his love for you will last even after death. There is no 'till death do us part'.
Again, he's a shinigami, so he'll make sure that you two stay together.
~William~
Hate to say it, but he doesn't accept your confession at first.
Feels as if it would interfere with his work. Believes love and business don't mix together.
Eventually changes his mind. He misses you so, so much. He misses how close you two used to be.
Even Grell comments about how stupid he is (which William couldn't help but poke him with his shears).
Grell only knew what was going on between the two of you through you after pestering noticing William's change in behavior.
Takes William a while to apologize, but he's determined to put his pride to the side because being without you is worse than working overtime and he HATES working past his shift.
Feels really silly about how he didn't think about balancing you and his work life. Not saying he enjoys work, but he is dedicated to it so why can't he be dedicated to both?
Probably a bit more dedicated to you now, but still.
Although he is a bit aloof, he shows his love in his own way. Makes sure that you get enough rest for your job, eat enough for the day, staying hydrated, making dinner when he knows you've had a long shift, or actually takes off on important days/days that you are unwell or when he just wants to spend time with you.
~Lau~
Lau pretends to be surprised when you accidentally confess to him, but admits that he's known for a while.
He knows a lot of people and people talk.
But he's also observant despite him acting oblivious most of the time. He did notice that you were a bit more fidgety around him.
After you confess, he's ecstatic, but a bit afraid. He has a lot of enemies and is concerned about them trying to use you against him.
But that's when he triples his security, especially when he couldn't be around you.
Lau not being around you is somewhat rare. He wants to bring you with him everywhere, especially to his birth country!
He's considered high class in China (and in England) because of his occupation plus his ties with the Qing Bang. He's going to make sure you're treated extra special.
You're with him now, so he'll be taking care of you.
