Please read the A/N at the end!!!
You ran straight for your bedroom as quick as you could, tears pouring down your face. Your heart had literally felt like it had been ripped out of your chest. You slammed the door behind you and slid down the door so you ended up in a heap on the floor. You cried your eyes out. Not only at the harsh words from Ceil Phantomhive but the case was weighing you down too. You wanted out of this mannor and off this case but it would only show weakness and prove the people who thought you couldn't do it right. Negativity hung over you like a cloud, like an odour that no matter how hard you scrubbed it wouldn't come off. It consumed you. This was the lowest you'd ever felt.
***
After an hour or so you had managed to pick yourself off the floor and into the bath to try and wash off all the feelings. You'd decided that maybe spending a night in with Grelle would be best for tonight. Hopping out the bath you slipped on a red dress and let your curls loose.
"Be strong." You whispered to yourself as you stood in front of your door. You turned the door handle and walked out keeping your head held high whilst you walked to the investigation room.
"(Your name)," Horatio nodded as you walked past.
"I'm spending the night with Grell, I'll return in the morning." You managed a tight smile before heading to the portal. You stepped inside the swirling grey mass before you were questioned anymore. When you stepped out you found yourself in the meeting hall of your realm. Sighing a sigh of relief you left, giving the receptionist a small wave as you passed her. No contact was made to anyone, all you needed was Grell. You knocked on the door four times and waited impatiently for the door to be opened. When it did you were greeted by the familiar face you'd missed so much.
"(Your name) darling!" Grell squealed as he threw his arms around your shoulders to pull you into a tight hug.
"Hi Grell." You mumbled into his shoulder holding him just as tightly.
"Come in darling!" He stepped aside so you could enter. You walked straight through to the front room and sat on the sofa. Man you missed this sofa. "Ronald's out at the moment and won't be back till tomorrow, so I doubt you'll get to see him sweetie." Grell informed as he poured some tea.
"I just wanted to spend some time with you really." You admitted, taking the tea from his hands.
"Darling is this case stressing you out?" Grell asked sitting back into the sofa, stretching the already stretched red coat of Madame Red.
"Like you wouldn't imagine." You sighed. "Its everything! The case itself and Ciel."
"What's the little brat up to now?" Grell frowned making his glasses fall further down his nose.
"Boasting about how great his life is." You rolled your eyes.
"Boast back sweetie." Grell shrugged. "What does he have that you haven't." You glared at Grell for a second. "Well okay, apart from a huge mansion."
"He's getting married to Elizabeth." You blurted out.
"Really? I don't know why, the last time I saw her five years ago she had a god awful squeaky voice and practically vomited the colour pink!" You laughed at Grell who rambled on trying to make you laugh. This is what you missed the free light spirited talk and laughter.
"I just....you know, being back in the mansion brings back a lot of the old memories." You stumbled.
"And feelings?" Grell asked. You nodded sheepishly.
"A little. I thought it would be easy...to go back I mean, but its difficult." You sighed rubbing your red puffy eyes.
"Darling of course it is. Listen to me sweetheart. Don't give a damn about Ciel. Go back there tomorrow, strut your stuff and show him whom the better person is. Because its you my darling (Your name). Men like power. You show Ciel your powerful, he'll be at your feet in no time." Grell hugged you tight.
"Thank you Grell." You kissed his cheek lightly. "You know you mean the world to me right?"
"I know darling, your my world too." He kissed the top of your head. "I don't care if your eighteen, your always my favourite darling little niece!" He sung.
"Always." You laughed at him as you placed your tea down.
"Now go get some beauty sleep darling! We'll make that brats eyeballs pop out tomorrow when he sees you!"
"Ok!" You chuckle as you stood up. "Night."
"Night darling."
