The Phantomhive Cafe (Sebastian Michaelis x GN!reader)

The First Day

"And this is our head chef, Bardroy-"

BOOM

Just as Sebastian had opened the door you were pushed behind him, a large explosion shooting dust and bits of food across the room. Inside was a man with messy blonde hair and grey-blue eyes. Though, his hair had been blown out into messy, ash covered tangles due to the explosion. A cigarette hung from his mouth, broken in half.

You barely had time to say anything before Sebastian let out an exasperated sigh, "Honestly, can't you manage to cook one meal by yourself."

The man, presumably Bardroy, rubbed his neck. There was a large, awkward smile plastered on his face, "Yeah, sorry 'bout that." He placed his hands on his hips, looking down at the bits of food left, which had been reduced to bits of charcoal, "Figured using dynamite would make things go a bit faster, ya know?"

Sebastian pinched the bridge of his nose while you stood there, dumbfounded, "Why would... that make things go faster?" You asked, furrowing your brows.

Badroy shrugged while Sebastian stepped inside, "You took the words right out of my mouth..." He said in an annoyed tone.

Suddenly, in a flash, the room was clean. It was as if Sebastian had moved in super speed while he tidied up. When he finished he had begun chopping vegetables. "You'd think someone who's worked here for this long would know how to set an example for new employees." He said, clearly annoyed.

When he was finished there was an array of chopped vegetables, fruits, and meats. It was like magic! You stared in awe, your mouth slightly agape. Bardroy shared your shocked expression.

Sebastian set aside the knife he had been holding before looking down at you and wiping his brow, "Mx. (Last Name), you may now properly introduce yourself."

Damn that looked HOT

You shook off the blush that had definitely invaded your cheeks by then and looked over at Bardroy, "Right uh... I'm (Name), the new waiter."

Baldroy nodded, a smile filling out his features, "Bardroy, but Bard is fine."

"Sebastian!" Came a higher pitched voice through the back door.

Sebastian sighed, his gaze falling on a short blonde man running through the door. He looked young, not Ciel young, but young nonetheless, maybe about sixteen. He had turquoise eyes, his strawberry blonde hair pinned back by red pins.

"What could it possibly be now?"

"It's Pluto! He broke out again!"

"Pluto...?" You barely got the words out of your mouth before a booming howl sounded from outside. You covered your ears, the ground shaking.

Sebastian sigh and pulled off his apron, "How difficult is it to watch a dog?" He murmured, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"Like hell that's a dog!" You exclaimed, uncovering your ears. Seriously, it sounded like a monster was out there! Sebastian's gaze fell on you.

"Mx. (Last Name), I must ask that you wait here." He leaned towards you, "And no matter what, do not try to see outside." That made your heart race. Sebastian was hot when commanding! Well... he was always hot. You nodded, unable to hide the red tinting the tips of your ears. Sebastian gave you a smile, "Good." He said before rushing outside in a flash.

Bardroy leaned against the counter, his hair now straightened out. "Honestly, is there anything he can't do?" He grumbled, wiping at his cheek with a damp cloth, "Finny, how'd Pluto get out this time?"

"Well, I just wanted to play with him. He looked so sad in his pen." The blonde said, fidgeting with his sleeves. His gaze fell on you, "Oh, who are you?"

"(Name)." You say, resting a hand on your hip, "You're... Finny?"

"Finnian, but Finny is fine!"

Well, he seemed sweet. In fact, everyone here seemed sweet. Sure, you're totally not twelve-year-old boss seemed kinda emo, and Sebastian looked like he could snap your neck in two seconds (which you probably wouldn't mind, really). Other than that, you're pretty sure you'd make it out of here on your first day in one piece!

"So... who's Pluto?" You asked, raising a brow.

Before the two men could answer, Sebastian's voice rang out through the kitchen, "Nothing important. Just a creature who we happen to take care of."

Finnian looked up at him, "Hey, Pluto is a sweetheart!" He crosses his arms, "He needs a bit of training, but he's a good pup in the end."

"Sure." Sebastian smiled down at you, "Aside from that, I suggest not going out to bother him, Mx. (Last Name). I'm not sure if you'll be able to handle his breed."

You shrug, "He's just a dog, right? He can't be that bad."

"Oh, actually, he's a de-" Finnian began, but Sebastian shut him down by clamping a hand over his mouth.

"He's untrained and borderline feral. We wouldn't want our new worker hurt." He said, giving you a smile that seemed a bit forced.

You couldn't help but furrow your brows, "Okay..." you say, crossing your arms and shrugging, "I won't bother him, I guess."

The second you were home you plopped down on the bed. Luckily for you, your first day was pretty slow. You waited on a few tables, help Bard cook, and even got to meet one of the older waiters, Tanaka, who was basically Alfred from Batman. For some odd reason, he was a normal old guy when he first met you, but he suddenly deflated into a little old man! After your initial shock, Mei-rin explained that he had simply run out of energy. Instead of questioning it, you just brushed it off. It wasn't the strangest thing you had experienced, there was the mystery dog, Pluto, of course.

You felt your kitten batting at the pant leg of your uniform, which you hadn't yet changed out of. You couldn't help but smile, sitting up and reaching down. You lift up the kitten, petting his head.

"Let me guess, you can see the bottom of your food bowl?" You ask, smiling as he butts his head against your hand. You let out a dramatic sigh and stand up, "Oh, how horrible I am! How dare I let this happen! I might as well be abusing you!" You place a hand to your forehead. Your kitten meows and nips at your chin.

You laugh and set him on the floor, standing and grabbing the kitten kibble. You pour it into the little cat bowl, mixing it in with some kitten formula to make it soft enough for him to chew. Your kitten immediately rushed up and began eating his food the second it was on the floor. You smiled down at you, "Don't choke, little man."

You slipped off your shoes and grabbed some pajamas, heading into the bathroom to shower. After taking far to long (who else was gonna give the shampoo bottles a concert?), you slipped on the pajamas and hopped into bed. You snuggled up under your blankets and sighed. Almost immediately, you were asleep.

Notes:

Hey, sorry for the late chapter, I got arrested after they found the drug ring I was running on the moon. Anyways, y'all wanna name the kitten? I haven't been able to choose one in case that wasn't obvious.
