Charms of the Past ( EDITING)

The Vision

It was silent for awhile, and that silent was very awkward. Alice realizing what happened, and what's happening stood up quickly, breaking everyone's trance.

Sebastian watched them with amusement, and with a smiling face, but didn't move forward to help.

Alice's face was red, so she bowed her head. "Oh my! I apologize! Why am I so clumsy!? I'm really sorry Ciel!" Alice said, panicking.

Ciel quickly composed himself, and faked a cough, he's face also red. "I-it's alright. B-be careful next time."

Alice bowed down again, but this time lower. "I really apologize, Ciel. Anyways, thanks for the food. I'll return to my room now." She hurriedly said, wanting to get away.

Before she can go away, Ciel held her hand. An electric shock went, at their sudden skin contact, so both of them let go.

"Sebastian will be waiting for you in the recreation room tomorrow, give you instructions and tour you around the house so you won't get lost."

"Of course, my lord." With that, Alice hurriedly went upstairs at her room.

Alice woke up the sunlight hitting her face, she stayed still for awhile then stood up and prepared to go to the drawing room. When she reached the drawing room, she didn't see Sebastian, but a familiar red-haired girl showed up, Maylene.

"Maylene."

"Lady Germaine."

"You can call me Alice."

"But Bocchan said to call you formally."

"You should call me Alice." Alice narrowed her eyes at Maylene

"Ok then, Alice." Maylene said at last, to let go of the topic. "Let's go."

Maylene toured Alice around the Phantomhive manor.

"As you see, Lady Germaine." She faked a cough. "Uh, I mean Alice this is the kitchen." Maylene opened the door

Alice saw the guy that she saw yesterday night at dinner. He has dirty blond hair and blue-grey eyes, and a cigarette dangling from his mouth and goggles hanging loosely around his neck. He wears a customary chef's outfit, including a long apron.

"This is Baldroy, but we call him Bard, for short."

"Maylene, Lady Germaine, what are you doing here?" Bard asked.

"I'm touring her around the manor."

"Oh."

They continued the tour.

"Where did Sebastian go?" Alice asked

"Bocchan has a case to solve, and Sebastian is with him."
