The pic is dress you will have cx

Reader's P.O.V.

Its early morning, the day of the ball. Im not sure what it is for, but Im sure I will find out. I was in a plain white dress that came past my knees just barely. My (h/l) hair was messy, and I was greeted by Pluto, who was in a white dress shirt. He carried me into the ball room, cradling me like a newborn. He held me tight, and groggily slumped me onto his back, and I began to pet him. Sebastian, Mey-Rin, and two blonde men were setting up, while Ciel sat on the stairs in his pajamas (cx) ordering them around, bored.

"I do think you should give them a bit of respect Ciel. They work and work for you." I said chuckling, "Im only joking, dearest." I still ruffled Pluto's hair.

"I know..." Ciel continued giving orders.

"Good morning!" Mey-Rin yelled to me.

"Good morning miss" Sebastian said, giving a devilish smile, he waltzed towards me, "There you are, my lady. The taffy should last you the month." He said kindly.

"Thanks." I said, still on Pluto's back. He cradled me again, and I saw the two blondes whispering. Who are they?? 
Pluto carried me back to my room, and he took a nap on my rug, as I slept well on the bed.

( timeeskipx to two hours before the ball )

Mey-Rin helped me get ready for the ball. She tied my corset, and put in me an extravagant blue dress. My (H/c) hair was down, but this process took an hour and a half. Pluto sat at my feet, rubbing his hands on my white socks. Sebastian knocked on my door and waltzed in.

"Valencia Evangeline, good afternoon, would you like some tea? Apple or Cinnamon?" He asked.

"Both" I giggled a bit.

"Right away, and Ciel asked you to give a good impression for the queen Victoria." He mentioned.

"Of course" and he went to get my tea.

I heard slight commotion coming from downstairs, it must have been very noisy since my room is in the hall. Pluto ran in my room in black suit like Sebastian's, and started tugging at my dress, leading me to the top of the stairs right behind the corner so no one could see me. Pluto took my hand and led me to the middle stair and the useless discussion turned to whispering. Ciel was next to Elizabeth, I suddenly remembered they were engaged. I brushed it aside as everyone stared. Pluto tucked a piece of my hair behind my ear, as we walked further, him kindly leading me down, almost floating on air. Ciel stared wide eyed. Elizabeth seemed annoyed by this, but whatever. I had locked eyes with Alois and his butler. I waved silently to the room of people and said "Why thank you" like Julie Andrews. I came to the bottom of the stairs, and Angelina ran up and introduced me.

"This is my daughter, Rose Jessi Dalles." she said with joy and a ring of claps went throughout the place. Angelina walked me down to Alois.

"This is the entire foreign committee so you won't have make a big show for them" she said.

Alois seemed eager to see me.

"Well, good afternoon to you." he said sweetly.

"To you as well, Alois Trancy." I said, slightly embarrassed by his extravagant attire now degrading mine. 

"Its just Alois." he replied. He lead me down further as Angelina returned to her spot next to her own butler. She smiled. He took me down to an old man, very unsettling.

"Pay no mind to him, he's a rat to me, disgusting and filthy." he whispered, making me laugh, as he wrapped his hand around my own. As they began talking, he started to squeeze my hand, and I looked to him but he didn't seem mad during his conversation with him. After a few more seconds of the squeezing and conversing, he led me to a corner of the table holding little desserts, and grabbing my right arm, as if to make a point. 

"Stay here. If you move I'll die." he said slightly chuckling. He went and arrived with a little platter of sweets and led me back to his butler and proceeded to yell at him a bit for not getting them for us, and had him hold it. 

"Now, let the Waltz of Flames begin!" Sebastian said as he began to play the piano in a fast tempo. Alois grabbed my hands and pulled me into the circle.

"Just follow me. Dance." he said pulling me towards him, and we waltzed to the piano. This went on for a good hour or so, until we all began to have blueberry tea and sweets galore, me having a small bowl of mulberries, and Alois had a small chocolate cake that was no bigger than his hand. This was nice.
