The One I Love (Ciel Phantomhive x Reader)

Meeting Marchioness Francis Midford

You, Ciel, Grace, Erin, and Kaija ride in a carrige that eventually gets you to the Midford Mansion. When you arrive, a footman helps you guys out of the carriage. Once you have all exited the carriage, the doors to the mansion bursts open and Elizabeth rushes out and tackles Ciel with a constricting hug.

"CCCIIIIEEEEEELLLLLL!!!!!!" Elizabeth cries.
"Gah- Hello Elizabeth," Ciel rasps.
"Ciel how many times do I have to tell you? Call me Lizzie!" Elizabeth pouts.

Elizabeth finally releases Ciel and turns to you and your friends.

"Hi! You're those girls Ciel had over when we went out for new dresses right?" Elizabeth asks.
"Yep," Grace replies.

Then Elizabeth's mom, dad, and brother -you assume- walk up from behind her. They all have a straight, somewhat intimidating face completely unlike Elizabeth. They all seem to be juding you and you friends, even Ciel looks a little nervous. But then Elizabeth's dad breaks his straight face and smiles as he picks up and hugs Ciel.

"Hello Ciel! My nephew and future son-in-law!" He says.
"Wow, and here I thought Elizabeth was the only weird one in the family," Kaija whispers to You, Grace, and Erin.
"Yeah, but her brother and mom are the same," Erin observes.
"Yes," You and Grace agree.
"Alexis! That is no way a gentlemen acts!" Elizabeth's mom says to Elizabeth's dad with disclipine.
"Oops, I guess you are right my dear. My apologies Ciel," He says as he sets Ciel back down.
Ciel smooths out his clothes a bit then says, "Thank you."
"So, who are these girls exactly?" Elizabeth's mom demands.
"Well mother, you know how I told you a out those girls that went into town with me and Ciel before the ball?" Elizabeth starts to explain.
"Ciel and I," Her mom corrects.
"Ciel and I," Elizabeths repeats. "Well, these are the girls! Mother, Father, and Edward, please meet Lady Grace, Lady Erin, Lady Kaija, and Lady (Y/n)!"

You and your friends wave, a little afraid of Elizabeth's mom's strict behavior.

"I say, isn't Lady Erin the lucky young lady who gets to be crowned queen... tomorrow I believe?" Elizabeth's Dad asks.
"Um yes that is correct," Kaija answers.
"Well, congratulations! I can tell you will be a strong ruler," He says to Erin.
"Thank you," Erin says in a surprisingly proper manner.
"Well it's nice to meet you ladies," Elizabeth's mom says. "I am Marchioness Francis Midford, wife of Marquis Alexis Leon Midford."
"Greetings my ladies, I am Marquis Alexis Leon Midford, and Head of the Order of the British Empire!" Elizabeth's dad says.
"Hello, I am Lord Edward Midford," Elizabeth's brother says.
"And you remember me right? I'm Lady Elizabeth Cordelia Midford!" Elizabeth says.
"So why have you decided to come visit us Ciel? And why have you brought these ladies with you?" Edward questions with suspision.
"Actually the ladies are the ones who wanted to come, isn't that right?" Ciel answers.
"Um, yes, Lady (Y/n) actually brought us here, she hasn't told us, for she wants it to be a surprise," Grace informs.
"Yes, I see and what may the surprise be?" Marchioness Midford asks.
"May I whisper it in your ear to keep it a secret?" You question.
"Very well," she says as she leans down a little.

You whisper in her ear your plans for you and your friends.

"Hm, I see. Well if you wish to learn, learn from the best I suppose. I even beat The Marquis Alexis over there and he's the Head of the Order of the British Empire," The Marchioness says.
"What exactly is the Order of the British Empire?" Erin asks.
Marchioness Midford looks at Erin with stern eyes, "My dear! That is a fool's question-"
"Francis please, she is not even from Britian, correct?" Marquis Midford asks.

Erin nods her head.

"But she should still be educated on the subject!" Marchioness Midford argues.
"Well, it is just a simple question easily answered, don't make such a big fuss about it," The Marquis says.
He then turns to Erin, "Please excuse her, anyway, the Order of the British Empire is rather an army that protects Great Britain I guess you could say, and I am the head of it or the leader."

"Well, enough time introducing, let's get to training ladies. Elizabeth, would you assist me in teaching the ladies?" Marchioness Midford says.
"Of course mother," Elizabeth replies. "Ciel, you can watch us!"
"Quite," Ciel says.

Marquis Midford and Lord Edward each go off and do their own thing while You, Ciel, Grace, Erin, Kaija, Elizabeth, follow Marchioness Midford through the mansion. You guys then arrive at a room.

Marchioness Midford opens the doors as she proudly says, "Welcome to training, ladies."

The room is big with a high cieling. There are many large windows on the three walls that aren't the one with the door in which you enter from. The floor is a glossy, well-polished, light wooden plank floor. The walls and cieling are white, there are four white pillars for support and a golden chandelier in the center of the cieling. Around the walls of the room, are armor stands with armor and racks full of swords. So many swords.

You and your friends all gape in awe at the sight of the miraculous room.

"Shut your mouths," Ciel whispers to you. "The Marchioness is very strict about that."

You nod in response and tell your friends that too. Ciel goes and sits in a chair by the door. Marchioness Midford stands in the center of the room with her hands behind her back and an expression on her face that ment business. Elizabeth stands next to her, but in a more care-free and happy manner. You and your friends stand shoulder to shoulder in front of them.

"Ladies, I will be training you," The Marchioness says. "In sword fighting."
