Smirking at Sebastian, you watched the other servants enjoying the night. Probably to gone mentally to remember what's going on. Bard had gotten some strange liquid at a store and the four of them had no problem with drinking it. Apparently, it had the same effects as alcohol.
"You know we could probably tell them anything and they'll forget." You offered, "Even if they remember tomorrow, I can use my magic to make them forget."
"I'm surprised they haven't asked you anything yet. You're glowing like a candle." He teased. Frowning, you looked down at your hands to see a faint glow. To much power building up. Hearing a thud behind you, it wasn't hard to figure out that the others had fallen asleep.
"Do you want me to help you take them to bed?" You offered.
"No. You need to go let your powers out. Before you set the whole place aflame. Prince Soma is asleep and Agni is watching over him, so you're secret will be okay."
Giving him a brief nod, you went out the back door to the green house. Ciel had given you special permission to use it, but only when it's night. Spreading your wings, you felt your powers release as your wings engulfed in flames. Just to make sure your powers were released completely, you took a small fly around the green house. Smiling as the flowers bloomed due to your powers. It's been a week since you've been able to use your powers or stretched your wings. It's nice to be able to do it alone. Landing, you took a look at your handy work. Every flower alive and at it's brightest.
Smiling, you turned to leave, but froze when Agni was standing there. Eyes wide in awe, like he couldn't believe it. As if you could hide what you were, you folded in your wings. Since you know he was blessed by a god, you're magic won't work on him.
"(Y/N), you're a phoenix?" You nodded slowly, "You are a rare creature of beauty and enchantment, why are you remaining a servant here?"
"Better here than India." You muttered, trying not to shiver from the memories, though they were hundreds of years ago.
"You should be a jewel, shinning in the palace in India." He tried to reason, not getting the picture.
"No, I don't." You snapped loosing your temper, "I was at one point. That was not freedom though. I was kept in a cage, where I couldn't even spread my wings or fly. Only using my powers to help the selfish king, Soma's great, great, great grandfather. Being shown off to his guests then having the cage covered in darkness until his other guests arrived. You tell me if that would be a life worth living?"
His silence was your answer. As was the pity and tears in his eyes.
"(Y/N), I am truly sorry. I did not know." He whispered, "You really deserve better."
"Thank you for understanding." You gave him a small smile, "Can I trust you not to tell Prince Soma? I don't think he would understand."
You immediately knew that was the wrong this to ask when you saw the troubled look on his face. If he felt bad for lying to the Prince to protect him, then you doubt he would keep you a secret. He's to loyal for that. Knowing his answer, you shook your head.
"Forget it. I know you don't keep secrets from him." You muttered, leaving. Jumping a little when he grabbed your hand.
"For you, anything to keep you smiling and free." He assured you, "Though I hate to see you hide your beautiful magic."
"It can't be helped. To reward you for being quiet, I will grant you a wish. " You were a reasonably fair phoenix after all. There's no way you would ask someone to do something so important without doing something for them in return.
"A wish?" he was silent for a long time, until he smile in excitement, " I wish for you to use your magic whenever you want for whatever you want. In the manor, around me, or even here in the green house. I want you to be free with it."
Blinking at him, you studied him to see if it was a trick. You haven't been free to use your powers in nearly 600 years. Even Ciel will only let you use your powers in the green house, which was his wish. This wish would cancel out his wish.
The thing is that this wish doesn't affect him in any way. He's not asking anything for himself, which is odd.
"Are you sure you don't want something yourself? You can have anything you want with my magic." You reasoned, flinching when he moved your hand to kiss it.
"I only want you happy, but, " you knew there was going to be something, "If you will go out on a date with me, that would be my only wish."
Something that simple for a wish? In all the centuries you've been alive, no one had asked you of this. The fact that the wish came from someone as considerate as Agni, surprised you. You didn't even know what to say.
"Just say yes already." Jumping at the new voice, you glanced at Prince Soma, at the door, "He's wanted to ask you since our first meeting. He's been nervous the whole time."
"H..how long have you been there?" You questioned.
He shrugged his shoulders like the matter wasn't important, "Just now when he asked you out. Now are you going to say yes?"
Shifting your gave between Soma's impatient stare and Agni's hopeful one, you knew you already had your answer.
"Okay, let's go on one."
