Confession

The events with the light brought out some more changes. You have an angel stuck inside your head, your feels for multiple people is enough to drive you insane and now you're stuck doing the dishes for the next month.

Cleaning up all the plates as punishment, you hear Bard behind you writing something down. Taking a small break you loom over to see what he's writing, "Writing down recipes?" You ask as Bard nods, "Of course! I am the chef after all!" You then ask a different question, "Can I see?"

Bard obliges and hands you his cooking journal, "Boiled cow tongue with chicken liver? Iced meatballs with caviar? And... marble cake with gravy?" With all of these sounding repulsive you hand it back, "Yeah! Whatcha think? Pretty snappy right?" Bard says quite thrilled to try these out as you go back to cleaning the dishes.

"Yeah, just ask Sebastian for the go ahead on those first though." You mention as your emotions are getting the better of you. I feel your lust is getting stronger. But for whom? Yeah good luck finding that out. It's always complicated with this guy. 'I'd rather not discuss it.' But you must take a gamble that love does exist!

Turning around you bump into Sebastian, "Oh, sorry. What can I do for you?" Sebastian excuses himself and informs you, "The young master wishes to see you. I'll see to it that these are done."

Once Sebastian took over you head to Ciels study to talk. Upon entering you see him with a chessboard, "Please sit. I'm quite bored and wish to have you entertain me until lunch." Sitting down just opposite of him you chuckle, "You chose me because I'm not that good huh." Ciel smirks a bit, "Clearly you cheat more so than play."

Taking on Ciels challenge you do play fair until lunch time arrives, even though you're both hungry, Ciel does have some difficulty figuring out your strategy. "Ya know your hunger does make you predictable." Ciel then slides his next piece, "Same can be said to you." Seeing that you're either able let him win, or take the win you slouch back.

"Hmm..." You let him win and he lets out a childish jolt of excitement, "Yes!" He clears his throat and goes back to his regular attitude, "Well played." You just laugh a bit at the sudden outburst, "Anytime Ciel." You smile and stand up to leave, "Where are you off to?" He asks, "Well I'm going to help Finnian in the garden." Ciel nods, "Well... let's play again soon."

Going to the garden you see Finn a bit sad looking at some flowers. "What's wrong now?" You ask once you stand behind him, "The flowers are all dead now and it's my fault!" He begins to cry as you pat his hair gently, "Now now, it's not the end of the world." Reassuring him the blonde looks up at you with hope in his eyes.

Reapplying the soil and planting new seeds you aid him with his efforts and wipe your brow. "See? It's easier if you look at things one step at a time." You advised when suddenly Finn hugs you and begins to twirl you around. "Oh yay! Thank you (Y/N)!" Tripping over his feet you land ontop of him softly onto the grass. Chest to chest for a moment, your cheeks rise a red tone.

Taking a gulp you gently rise up and help him stand as he just watches you. 'Never noticed how adorable he is...' Shaking that off you grip his shoulder, "Keep up the uh... good work Finny." You comment before heading back inside. 'Let's see... Ah! Snake needed my help.' Heading over to the library you seen him tossing books around.

"What. Did. You. Do." You comment as the books now all out of order and scattered everywhere. "We've misplaced one of our own! Yes it seems we did Oscar." Snake said as you now realize he's looking for one of his slithery friends. "Well I'll look up high then." Using a latter to look ontop of the bookshelves you sneak peeks at him.

'Soft grey hair... uniquely shaped eyes...' Shaking your head you feel something slither across your back, "If it's on my back. I'll freak out." You say aloud for Snake to hear. Once he comes around to look at you, he speaks, "Martha? What are you doing? Yes I wonder that as well Oscar."

"This one's heart was beating fast for someone. Was it really Martha?" Snake asks as you gulp, 'I'm getting ratted out by a snake!? Of all things! A snake!?" You then explain, "Well uh, probably because a snake is moving its way all over my back." Snake just smirks and crosses his arms.

Climbing down you gently handle the snake named Martha and hand it back to him. "I believe this one wishes to either tell someone or us something. Does he Martha?" Snake asks looking deep into your eyes. Gently looking up at you slightly as you share his gaze. "Uh well, uh." The words are mixed and all jumbled together, "It's just that..."

Quickly thinking of an excuse, "I have to write a letter to my uncle!" You quickly say and gently hand Martha over to Snake before pacing out of the room.

Panting heavily you grip your chest feeling your heart beat rapidly, 'Oh wow...' Told you he was complicated. I'm afraid so. You must choose! 'I can't...' We've been waiting forever for this! Just choose!
