"(Y/N)....(Y/N), wake up darling." Ciel cooed at you causing you to wake up.

You rubbed your eyes and yawned. "Good morning Ciel. What are you found here and what am I doing in your home?" You asked.

Ciel stood up and opened the curtains. "I told Sebastian to wake me up earlier to wake you up personally and you stayed the night because we don't know where you live so I decided to let you stay the night."

"Where's Sebastian and Laura?" You asked.

"I ordered them to send our invitations for Madam Reds funeral." Ciel said as he handed you some tea.

"Oh...yeah. Thank you for the tea." You said sadly. "Your welcome. Get ready now so we can leave. Oh, and wear the black and red dress for you so we can be...matching. I'll wait for you in the carriage." Says Ciel. You nodded in response.

As Ciel walked out of the room you began to get ready. You wore the black and red dress that Ciel picked out for you, did your hair, and put on some shoes. You began to make your way outside into the carriage.

Ciel was waiting for you inside. Sebastian and Laura came back in time to drive them to the church. The drive was dead quiet.

Then, you all arrived. You and Laura got off.

"Laura, (Y/N). You two go ahead in. Me and Sebastian will catch on later, we have to do something." Ciel said to you and Laura.

You both agreed and walked in the church and took a seat up in the first row. You saw Lady Elizabeth in the row next to you. You waved kindly to her but she just glared at you in response.

You walked up to see Madam Red in her coffin. You started to cry just by starring at her lifeless body and hugged her.

All of a sudden, the doors flew open. Ciel walked in with a red dress in his hands. He walked down to Madam Red and placed the dress on too of her.

"That girl and Earl Phantomhive are wearing red and brought a red dress to a funeral!"

"Well, the Madam did love red." Two strangers whispered to each other.

Red rose petals flew in from the outside coming from the carriage with Sebastian opening the doors.

"A plain white dress doesn't suit you, Madam Red." Ciel said. Everyone showed awe at the entrance.

"Ciel, how nice of you." You complimented. Ciel put his arm around you.

"Nice? I only did it because I knew she would have liked it." Ciel said. Lady Elizabeth just glared daggers at them.

When the funeral was over, the four of them went home. "So (Y/N), our talk?" Ciel asked.

"Oh, um, ok. Where?" You asked shyly.

"Meet me in my office in a few minutes."

"Y-yes." You agreed.

A few minutes passed and you knocked on Ciel's office door.

"Come in." Ciel said.

You entered slowly and took a seat in front of Ciel. "So...what is our talk about?" You asked.

"It's just some questions I want you to answer. You don't have parents anymore, correct?"

"No."

"So where do you live?"

"Alone."

"Where?"

"In...the streets. But I ask people if I can come in to rest or bathe."

"(Y/N), why didn't you tell me?" Ciel said.
You sighed. "I was afraid. Afraid that you would send the police to take me away, or take me back to the orphanage, or worse, break up with me." You said a little scared.

Ciel stood up and hugged you from behind the chair. "I would never do that to the girl I love. Would you like to love here, with me?" Ciel asked.

"Thank you Ciel, I would. And I think you should know one more thing." You said, relived and happy.

"Like what?" Ciel asked.

"Well... I used to sneak into the queens balls through the windows or anything left opened." You responded.

Ciel's eyes widened. "My, my. I never knew you were so sneaky. That explains why I saw a figure sneak into the ball the day we met."

Ciel walked to the doors and opened them and yelled out. "Sebastian! Laura! Go collect the rest of (Y/N)'s things! She will be staying with us now!"
