No ones POV:

"I'm sure I have stated this before. You are to perform your jobs as quietly as a shadow... How many times must i spell out 'quietly' before you will understand its meaning?" Sebastian said with a sharp glare towards the three servants and eyeing the explosion made during their last intrusion.

"I'M SORRY" the three pleaded while skittering around trying to find the first thing they can do to fix the mess.

"For now, you three start cleaning up what's scattered around the outdoors and indoors please". Sebastian replied calmly. With that the two boys and the clumsy maid cracked to it.

Before mey rin could leave, Sebastian patted her shoulder to turn around.

"May I ask where Y/N has gone?" He said politely, making the shaking maid flustered.

She gave a small sigh and looked up to the roof of the mansion, indicating she was there.

"After we eliminated the intruders, Y-N t-told us who those people were and the case the y-young master had. Just as y-you and the young master arrived back, Y/N didn't look too happy. When I asked her what was wrong, she mentioned she overheard you and the young master talk about someone called ' j-joker'. She didn't say anything after that and stayed up there ever since. Finny tried to get her to come down but s-she never moved". Mey rin ended

Sebastian looked towards the roof and made a small sigh himself.

"You carry on mey rin, I'll go and see her". Sebastian said, watching mey rin leave.

As mey rin left to start the cleaning work, Sebastian jumped with his inhuman strength to the top of the mansion. He walked across to find Y/N laying on her back towards the sky.

The demon towered over her laying body, blocking her morning sky view. Expecting a response out of the fox, to his surprise, she only turned her back to him and laid facing away.

Sebastian sat next to Y/N and spoke, "how long do you plan to mourn over your temporary 'boyfriend'"

Y/N wanted to say something towards his bitterful and blunt words. But she never responded again. Y/N agreed with the demon. She shouldn't mourn over the dead man. He was never a humble human. He was a murderer, a seriel killer.

In a way, after she over heard Ciel talk about how stupid the Joker was in his final moments, she felt relieved that he was dead. And thinking that way made her feel selfish and cruel.

"If you don't speak-"

"I understand now" Y/N cut off Sebastian.

"Oh? What do you understand?" Sebastian said, raising an eyebrow.

"I realize how ignorant humans are. I realise how weak I become when I get too attached" she began again. She slowly got up and faced forward, still away from the demon sitting beside her. "I'm sorry I have not come down from here. I needed a moment to myself in peace".

"You seem to be saying sorry quite often. I never thought you would become this, 'emotional". Sebastian said, trying to manipulate the heartbroken fox. However, this didn't work.

"I know your game's demon. You try to break a person down to their core and use their weakness against them to play as a puppet". Y/N responded, this did not phase the demon as he already knew that her friendship with the reapers have given her the knowledge and understanding to how demons play against human emotions.

"Even though, what you say is to break me, i do find it, shamefully, helpful. I've never experienced 'love', so it was a matter of time that I would experience it even just a little bit of what it's like, and now that I have, I know it is the greatest emotion a person can have. It can make you feel whole, or shatter you to the deepest depth of darkness".
