Chapter 12

I ran past undertaker who was in the hall admiring the painting of my late parents. He called after me as I ran by him. I ran until I got to my room. It was getting dark outside, my room was dark. I walked to my window. I opened it letting the cool summer night air in the room.

I loved the smell of the pine trees and the fresh air. I just loved everything about summer. I loved how it could calm me. But tonight it won't be able to.

My life was screwed up. It was twisted in so many ways. I just can't. I step up onto my window ceil. I look down at the ground. My room is on the third floor of the manor so it's like a fifteen-twenty feet drop. I stared into the darkness, the only lighting was the moon.

I truly did missed them. But I can't let their death ruin my life. It hurts it does. I just don't want the burden of their death on my shoulders. Hell that was eight years ago. I can't let it control my life. Then again... It does. It controls my life and I can't help it. I jump or don't. I have to make the decision of life and death.

My thoughts were interrupted when I heard undertakers voice behind me. "Alice my dear, do you really want to make that decision of life and death? You shouldn't do it though. You have a great life ahead of you, why throw it away? I can help you if you will let me."

I didn't turn around, my voice cracked when I spoke, "Nobody can help me. Not Ciel. Not Sebastian. Not even you..."

Tears rolled down my cheeks. I felt Undertaker wrap his arms around my waist and pulling me down from the window ceil. I landed on my feet but my legs buckled underneath me and I fell to the ground pulling Undertaker down with me. A sob escaped my throat. I was pulled into a hug by undertaker. I cried into his shoulder while he comforted me. He held me there for a long time.

"Alice dearie, I will always be here for you. You can talk to me when ever. You can come visit me when ever. I'll always be here for you no matter what."

I stood up, pulling undertaker up beside me. I hugged him. "Thank you. I know I can."

I pulled away and looked into his bangs. He smiled at me, "he he he, let's go tell your brother and butler that you are alright."

I nodded and we both left my room in search for either Ciel or Sebastian. We found Ciel in his office working on a new toy design. I knocked on the door frame, he looked up at me with worry in his eyes, "Alice! Are you alright? I was worried about you!"

"I'm fine. Just something's were just bothering me, but I'm fine now. Is it okay if I go into town tomorrow with some friends?"

He nodded, "I'm glad your alright, and yes you may go with some friends."

I left with undertaker behind me. I was walking backwards and talking to him at the same time.

"So undertaker, I know Ciel probably wouldn't let me stay with you tonight because of almost dying once again, he wants Sebastian to watch over me and make sure I'm safe."

He grinned at me, "he he he once again you almost died and let's not forget when you tried to jump to your death. He he he... You said something about coming into town with some friends?"

I smiled, "Yes yes I am going to bring some friends with me when I visit you. So you can meet them."

He giggled. We continued looking for Sebastian. Eventually we ran into him in the foyer he was dusting a couple of the decorations. Undertaker stayed in the hall that lead to the foyer, leaving me and Sebastian alone.

I stood in the entrance of the doorway, "Sebastian..."

He looked up and looked right at me. I walked over to where he stood until I was standing in front of him. I looked up into his red eyes.

"Sebastian I'm so so so sorry... I shouldn't have said those things. I know you're here for me. I know I can be strong and I can become stronger with you beside my side. I love you. I don't know what I'd do with out you in my li-"

I was interrupted by warm, soft lips meeting mine. Our lips moved in synch. He held the small of my back and held me close to his chest. He had his other gloved hand behind my neck holding it to hold my head up.

He finally pulled away, looking into my violet eyes he says, "Alice Phantomhive, I love you."

I smiled, blushing, "Sebastian Michaelis, I love you."

He took hold of my hand, rubbing small circles with his thumb. I looked into his eyes once more. "Sebastian I'm going to go walk undertaker out and then I'm off to bed."

He nodded and I left him to finish his work. I walked back to undertaker. He was in the hall looking at the paintings on the wall. He was currently looking at one of my late parents.

I smiled. I went and stood by him looking at the painting.

"Your father was a good man, he was so kind to people, but he could put up a fight, he he he. Your mother was a beautiful young lady, she was so gracious towards everyone. She was kind and giving. She cared for people a lot and she would tend to someone in need. Your father loved your mother very much. As everyone else loved her too. It was hard not to love her. You're exactly like your mother Alice."

I smiled at undertakers words. "Thank you undertaker for your kind words about my parents. I knew they were great people."

He smiled. "I must be going he he he for it's getting late."

I nodded and walked him to the door. There was a carriage waiting for him outside. I walked out with him and before he got in the carriage i gave him a hug. I pulled back smiling.

"I'll see you tomorrow undertaker. Goodnight."

He giggled, "goodnight dearie."

He got in the carriage and was off. I walked back in and met Sebastian.

"Mistress are you ready to go to bed?"

I nodded and we went to my room. He helped me get ready for bed. I got in my warm comforter. Sebastian stayed by my side all night. I love him.
