The One I Love (Ciel Phantomhive x Reader)

Poor Lizzie (Not really) and Dream Meeting

You, Grace, Erin, and Kaija all get your sleepwear on. You suddenly have to use the bathroom.

"I have to go use the bathroom," You say.
"Alright," Kaija says.

You then leave the room, closing the door behind you. When you exit the room you hear a faint wailing.

'What is that?' You think to yourself.

You walk down the hallways of the Phantomhive Manor getting closer and closer to the source of the wailing.

You come to a room with the door slightly open, it seems like the wailing is coming from there. You go closer to the door and peek inside. You see Ciel, Marquis Midford (Elizabeth's dad), Marchioness Midford (Elizabeth's mom), and Elizabeth who is crying.

'What are they doing here?!? And why is Elizabeth crying?' You think to yourself.

"We appreciate your generosity Ciel," Marchioness Midford says.
"We know how hard it must be, sacrificing your improved rank, so that Elizabeth may improve her rank by being betrothed to a Duke," Marquis Midford says.

'Wait What? But isn't Elizabeth betrothed to Ciel?' You question in your mind.

"Ciel?!? Why would you do this?!? We love each other!!" Elizabeth says between sobs.
"I'm sorry Elizabeth, but it's best if we break the engagement," Ciel says.

'Wait. Engagement?!? They broke the engagement?!? Then who will Ciel be betrothed to?!' Your mind buzzes with questions, but no answers.

Then you see Ciel and Elizabeth's parents signing a paper.

"Say Ciel," Marchioness Midford says. "Who are you planning on being betrothed to next?"
"Oh um," Ciel blushes a little. "I was thinking about being engaged to Lady (Y/n)."

You quietly gasp.

'Ciel... wants to be engaged to me!?! Yes! Woo Hoo! Yeah!! Suck it Elizabeth!! Ciel likes me!! Yeah!!' You sort-of have a little party in your mind.

"Hm, I must say..." Marquis Midford says.

'Oh no,' You think to yourself.

"That Lady (Y/n), is quite a wonderful choice. She is a beautiful young lady and seemed very well-behaved," The Marquis finishes.

'Phew' You think to yourself.

"Yes, she was very fine at sword fighting," Marchioness Midford says.
"Ciel! Why?!" Elizabeth says still wailing.
"I'm sorry Elizabeth, but it's for the best," Ciel says.

You then continue your way to the bathroom. When you are finished, you return to your room.

"(Y/n)!" Kaija says.
"(Y/n) you were gone for so long," Erin says.
"Did you visit a special someone instead of actually going to the bathroom?" Grace says with a devious smile and raised eyebrows.
"I-I, no. I'll tell you guys in our dream, we have to go to bed," You say.

Everyone then goes to sleep.

In your dream it's just like the last time, the meadow, the river, the willow tree, and the treehouse. Once all four of you are in the treehouse, you then start telling them what happened.

"So I was on my way to the bathroom when I heard a wailing," You say.
"Like a siren wailing or a crying wailing or the act of killing whales whaling?" Erin asks.
"Crying wailing," You answer. "Anyway, I followed the sound to a room with Elizabeth, Ciel, and Elizabeth's parents in there. So apparently their engagement is off."
"(Y/n), you actually have a chance with Ciel now!" Grace teases.
"Yeah, Elizabeth's parents asked who he was going to be betrothed to next and he said he was going to be engaged to me!" You say.
"Woo! Go (Y/n)!" Grace says.
"Yeah!" Erin shouts.
"Congratulations (Y/n)!" Kaija says.
"Well we're not engaged yet, but we will be soon. Probably," You say. "Dang this sounds like a serious regular people engagement thing."
"Because it is!" Erin shouts.
"(Y/n) are you saying that being engaged to Ciel freaking Phantomhive isn't serious!?!" Grace shouts.
"Well no, I-" You say. "I-it just sounds like a normal person thing. Not like a Victorian Noble thing. Did that make any sense?"
"Yeah," Kaija says.
"Ok cool," You reply.
"What did I come here for?" Erin asks.
"Free snacks," Grace replies as a plate of dream food appears in front of her.
"Oh, food," Kaija says as she starts eating it.
"Kaija that's not real food, you know that right?" Erin says.
"Yeah, I just like eating," Kaija replies with her mouth full of food.
"Egg's Queen Coronation is tomorrow," You say. "You ready for that?"
"Yeah, Bring on the chaos!" Grace says.
"Hey!" Erin shouts. "I'll have you know  that I'll be a great queen!"
"Yeah whatever," Grace says.
"Well that's it right? Nothing else needs to be discussed?" Kaija questions.
"Nope, I think that's it," You say.
"Grace? Erin?" Kaija asks.
"Nope," Erin says.
"Yeah I don't think there's anything else," Grace says.
"Actually, wait," You say. "What about Adalric? The Prince guy? Are we safe from him?"
"I mean, probably," Erin says. "He's stuck down in his little dirt garden kingdom."
"Yeah, he needs the orbs to open the doors doesn't he? And we have them," Grace points out.
"And plus, it's probably enchanted or something and he probably won't be able to get through," Kaija adds.
"Alright then," You say still unsure. "Guess that's all we need to talk about."
"Alrighty then," Grace says. "Time to wake up."

Then all four of you wake up.

*Prince Adalric's P.O.V.*

I look into my Seeing Orb to see what (Y/n) is currently doing. She is peacefully sleeping in her bed. She looks so gorgeous when she sleeps, her shining hair sprawled out over her pillow, her face in resting position shows the calm beauty in which it holds, and her chest rising and falling in perfect rhythm.

'(Y/n), my beautiful (Y/n), sweet dreams.'

I then turn around to the portrait of my parents. My dead parents. I remember their last words to me.

"Adalric darling," My mother says, her hand on my cheek. "Listen to your heart. Love will guide you. And we will always love you."

"Adalric, son," My father says with a smile as he's about to go to war. "If I don't make it back, I hand the throne to you. Marry a woman whom your heart desires and makes you happy. Continue the heir, lead the kingdom, and make us proud."

"Well mother, my heart is telling me to be with (Y/n). Father, (Y/n) is who my heart desires and who makes me happy. I will always cherish your love, and make you proud," I say to the portrait as if I am really talking to them.

I can almost hear them whispering to me.

"We love you son,"
"Make us proud,"
