Till Death do we Part Sebastian x reader

His Maid, Care Free

Week after week

It's been about two months, tomorrow would make three.

No more

Not tonight

You knew perfectly well that tonight was for close family, and how much closer can a wife get?

You dolled yourself up and even tightened your corset. Your hair hit your back covering your mark from prying eyes. You used the curling rod to make a single curl in front of your face and blew out the fire underneath it.

"Mama?"

Your little joy rubbed his eyes peeking in the room.

You coughed, waving off the smoke so you wouldn't choke on it . "Did you crawl out the cradle again? Or did Finny take you out for hide and seek again?"

He sniffed and looked at you up and down slowly walking towards you. You stopped your preparations and picked his chubby little figure up and sat in your chair. "What's wrong?"

"Papa," he said sleepily, chubby hands grabbing at air. You felt your heart breaking, there was no way you could explain to him where his father went and even if you could, he wouldn't understand most of what you were saying anyway.

"He'll be back soon I promise. Just hang in there, we all miss him." He pouted as if he didn't believe you and you glanced at the clock to see how late you'll be. Not too late but not early either. How do you ask a boy not to miss his father?

"Would I ever break a promise to you?" His wine coloured orbs stared at you, how odd to see a carbon copy of your husband's eyes filled with such emotion, makes you wish he would show a little more. What can you get with a demon? Tipping his head to your chest so he could hear the steady beating of your heart you soothed him to sleep.

"Tomorrow you'll get a surprise Corbin. Don't worry." Gently you lowered him in the moonlit cradle. Over the past few weeks you've successfully gotten him to sleep by himself in his own bed. The window was open for fresh air, you weren't worried about intruders he was his own burglar alarm. No other child is safer than he is in the Phantomhive household, not even the master of the estate.

You finished off your look making sure every stitch of cloth was in place. The cab was waiting for you outside. "Weston College sir."

The ride wasn't long and you made it there in no time giving the driver a sovereign. You walked onto the campus, it was a beautiful castle or a cathedral-like structure.

It was pitch black on campus. Light and sound emitted from a single part in the grounds, everywhere else looked abandoned. The grass crunched under your heels, letting you know winter was coming soon, the days were getting cool and the night even cooler. Your shawl draped around your arms shielding what was exposed. Stopping in front the door to fix yourself you heard a commotion inside and people gasping.

"Mr. Agares are you okay?" Someone shouted. A bit of murmuring was heard before everyone started to resume whatever was going on. Taking a deep breath you contemplated whether you should go in or not, the thought of a thousand eyes on you walking in late didn't help the gnawing in your stomach either. It hit you that you never knew what Sebastian's role was in the school. He could be anything from a teacher to a caretaker, or just hidden in plain sight. Everything started going wrong in your head, you didn't plan for if you were late.

Well, you didn't come all this way for nothing. Mustering every minute trace of courage you opened the doors and walked in.

The room went silent for the most part, there were others father away that were still talking loudly. Late is one thing but to be fashionably late is another. They all turned to look at you calculating every step, assessing you from head to toe. As if they knew who you were here for even though your eyes scanned them thoroughly. You shed your shawl giving it to the man standing at the door, sparking a few murmurs from them. You expected your dress to make a few people's heads turn. Sleeveless, cageless, only one petticoat. Stunningly red with black lace etchings and red elbow length gloves. Your corset pushed your chest out, but you didn't mind.
