Revelations

Chapter two

AN: Am I the only one who LOVES the Black Butler season #1 intro???
Like, the music in that anime so far is just...great! :D

"Alright, so I'm sure you all know that today is a very important day for, Lord Phantomhive. And, I want us all to be in good graces with Sebastian and not get into any trouble, today.", Bard says, addressing the others in the kitchen.
"Oh, I can do that.", Finny replies, the barrettes in his blonde hair shake, as he nods his head.
"Oh, anything for Mr. Sebstian!", Mey-Rin exclaims, fanning herself dramatically.
"Especially, if it means he'll agree to some sex later on!"
"Mey-Rin! Stop it! That's not the point! The point is that we're gonna act like obedient, non- clumsy servants for just one day and see maybe if his overall view of us will be changed."
They all nod and Bard then goes over the days plans.

Meanwhile, upstairs Ciel is still sitting on the large window ledge, knees touching his chin, and his small arms wrapped tightly around him.
He's studying the grounds of the estate with a seemingly bored interest, wishing that Sebastian were here again.
'He always knows how to make me smile', Ciel thinks to himself, sighing.
'He can always send my cheeks ablaze, with just one witty comment'
'I wonder what he's doing. Who he's with. He should be here. Why isn't he here?'
The boy jumps up from his place in the window and quickly dashes over to the door, grasping the knob.
He jiggles it against the wood of the door, only to realize with a shock, that it's locked.
"Sebastian!", he yells, hoping his butler will hear him and open it.
"SEBASTIAN! I COMMAND YOU OPEN THIS DOOR RIGHT NOW!"
But, there's only silence as the young Earl sighs in defeat, his small frame slumping against the locked door.
'Very well', he thinks.
'If that's how you want to go about things, then so be it, but I'm warning you demon, nobody messes with a Phantomhive and gets away with it!'

While all this had been going on, Sebastian had been in the Phantomhive gardens, gathering vegetables and herbs for tonight's dinner.
He smiles fondly up at his master's window, when he faintly hears the child's screams and threats, then chuckles softly to himself.
'Oh Young Master, you are too naive', he thinks, placing a squash in the wicker basket he's currently got around one arm.
Ciel's angry thoughts rush quickly at the butler.
'NAIVE?! WHAT DO YOU MEAN, NAIVE?! WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING, MICHAELIS?! ANSWER ME! THIS IS AN ORDER!'
Sebastian just laughs.
'Oh, is it, my Lord? I wish you wouldn't shout so! It's most upsetting to the ears'
"Oh? Is it? In that case...LET ME SPEAK A LITTLE LOUDER!'
Sebastian cringes and covers his ears, at the sound of his master's shouting.
He then inspects the basket of ingredients thoughtfully and decides that these would do.
'I am coming in now, Young Master, is there anything I can get you?'
'Yes, you could unlock the door'
The demon laughs, clearly finding Ciel's temper today to be very amusing.
He sighs and gets up, dusting off imaginary dirt from his black suit pants.
'You know that's not an option'
There's silence.
Then, Ciel's voice, sounding placid.
'Yes, indeed I do, but I wanted to see what you'd say'
Sebastian despite being a demon and under a contract to eventually take the child's soul, can't help but smile a little at that.
He's basically grinning as he says his next thoughts: 'You're quite a brat, my Little Lord'
Ciel doesn't respond back to Sebastian, but the demon knows that upstairs no doubt, the child is on the ledge of his bedroom window, looking out at the grounds, a evident rush of colour apparent on his cheeks, along with a smile. A smile that makes everything about their contract seem for a little while less dangerous and foreboding, than it truly is...
