*Past mentions of sexual assault and rape

Cleo's Pov
"I see you are having a lovers quarrel with Sebastian, that's what you get for falling in love with a demon-"

"Checkmate." I grinned seeing Ciel's entire expression darken seeing him glare at me looking away. A small scoff but his eyes scanned across the board in disbelief probably trying to see if I had cheated on some way while he was distracted with his loud rambles.

"Damn you women... Well played Cleo, see you be grown accustomed to our games here." I leaned back in my chair a little as I thought it over.

"I've been here for almost over a year Ciel, I'd say I'm a custom to your ways. Though you England folk need to go outside more, so pale no vitamin c." He scowled shaking his head.

"I think I can give you love advice better then anyone in the manner, I am engaged." I snickered harshly clearing my throat.

"Yes to your cousin I know the customs to keep your family line pure, but you can barely tolerate being around her, I don't think you can help me Ciel." I giggled at his shocked face.

"I see.. What are your customs at home then?" I clicked my tongue across my inner cheek.

"The daughters are usually married off to different sons, the sons move out to marry. I would have been married off but I am touched my family wouldn't really have pride if they did. So no, no falling in love with demons, grim reapers angels and contracts." I waved my hand free like. Ciel leaned over the chest board intrigued like.

"You just said you aren't pure? Did you lay with a man before marriage." I gave a firm head nod.

"Its not like I wanted to, I was raped, it's why I have a contract with Sebastian, I can't remember who did it, I just remember they were close to my family. In some ways my family is deeply ashamed of me, which is why I don't have any desires to return home." Ciel chuckled quietly blinking his one eye at me before he was lifting up his eye patch exposing his contract eye towards me.

"I'll tell you what's the matter with Sebastian, he's jealous of Claude, it's a demon dominance thing. Two demons yeah doesn't work out that well, talk to him should fix it." I hummed in thought.

"The butler from the Halloween Party- that was so long ago." I exclaimed tossing my hands up standing up.

"It was your fault making me wear that dumb outfit."

"Still got you both together, tell him to bring me cake while you are down there!"

I started laughing quietly shaking my head a little heading down the long corridors.

Sebastian was always moving through out the day, arranging things, leaving and what not. It took Mey-Rin about seven tries till she told me he was in the kitchen preparing for the meal tonight. I entered the kitchen seeing the black haired demon with his sleeves rolled up mixing a strange liquid together in a bowl, his gloves on display.

"You shouldn't be jealous of a demon, that Halloween party was months ago, Sebastian I am giving up my human life for you." I don't think I had ever seen him jump, but he whipped around to stare at me his eyes wide a little bit he relaxed.

"Oh there you my sweet.. I'm not jealous that's a human emotion I don't dare utter out." I propped my hand over my chin leaning against the messy counter time, looking at the recipe book. It was something way too complicated and very rich I could tell.

"I'm not jealous of that spider demon foul in everyway." He snapped out looking away a sigh left him, before he bit at his glove tugging it away with his teeth exposing his hands.

"Maybe I am... Maybe a part of me is worrisome of the future. You know what you want I know you are giving up your human life for me dear." He held his hand out for me, I pushed myself away from the counter making my way towards him.

I wrap him in a side hug which he returned pressing a quick kiss to my forehead. Squeezing me in a hug.

"You hold a lot in your mind don't you? One day you should just spill it all out to me." I breathless chuckle escape him, his red eyes glancing at me for a moment.

"For you my dear, anything also, Lady Elizabeth is coming to visit the Young Lord, which means I can take you out tomorrow if you desire." I thought about it, I've been too sheltered since living here.

"Sure why not, can we visit the Undertaker? I like telling him jokes and seeing him laugh." I giggled feeling Sebastian was twisting around a few strands of my curls between his fingers an odd expression on his face. "You wanna visit the reaper? For what goodness for?" I fluttered my eyes.

"Well because Grell usually is there which means William will be there they are just fun to be around." I answered.

Sebastian blinked once then twice before a grin made its way across his face.

"How odd you are my dear Cleo, yet it's what I love about you, only one to bicker with the young master."

"He's fourteen- He's just hormonal, like I was also- oh shit I was suppose to tell you to bring him cake like hours ago- Oh well he needs to stop drinking that tea and eating the sweets I know his teeth hurt." I laughed quietly getting a soft laugh from Sebastian.

"You know Sebastian, you'd do good at a circus. You are quite good at entertaining others."

"You don't say, maybe we should perform an act together, let me take my clothes off first-"

"Would you look at the time! I gotta go find Finny!"
