"Siren...Siren...Wake up, Siren."

I groaned as I opened my eyes. Sebastian was once again waking me up. I sighed. "Not again."

"Siren, you must wake up. Lady Elizabeth is on her way." Sebastian said.

Immediately I shot up straight and got out of bed. "Okay, I'm up!" With that, I pushed Sebastian out of the room, slammed the door, and changed as quickly as possible. I made sure I put on my sunglasses. When I was finished, I swung open the door to see Sebastian still standing there.

"Come on, let's go!" I shouted as I ran down the hall.

Sebastian and I managed to make it to Ciel on time. Ciel was just walking up the stairs. The doors suddenly burst open and I saw Lizzy and Paula walk in.

Never, ever have I seen someone run up stairs so fast.

"Ciel!!" Lizzy squealed.

"Lizzy?!" Lizzy grabbed Ciel and began swinging him around. Sebastian stood idly by with little to no expression and I watched with an eyebrow raised.

"Here, this is for you. Hurry up and open it, won't you?" Lizzy giggled.

Ciel looked at her suspiciously before grabbing the ribbon of the present. Then, Lizzy noticed Ciel's ring and stopped him. "But I broke this! How..." Lizzy held his hand with both of hers, staring at it.

"Oh, Sebastian repaired it." Ciel answered.

"What?! But it was chipped! And I don't see any cracks..." Lizzy said. Not to mention, Ciel threw it out a freaking window! But, of course, Lizzy didn't know Sebastian's secret. Honestly, Ciel kind of talks about Sebastian all the time with people...wait-

My thoughts were interrupted by Sebastian. "Yes. A Phantomhive butler who can't do this much-"

"Isn't worth his salt." Ciel finished.

"Quite, my lord." Sebastian bowed.

"I see...Sebastian fixed it..." Lizzy folded her hands together and looked down.

Paula walked up the stairs. "My lady..."

I gulped. I actually didn't mind Lizzy that much and I didn't want her to get kidnapped.

"What do you have in the box, Lady Elizabeth?" Sebastian asked.

I punched him in the arm as hard as I could. Sebastian glared at me. "Don't be so suspicious and rude, Sebastian! It's a gift! You aren't suppose to know what it is before you open it!"

"Er, um, it's a secret!" Lizzy waved her hands wildly as she ripped the box from her hands. Sebastian and Ciel were immediately confused.

"Didn't you just say you were giving it to me?" Ciel questioned.

Lizzy giggled mischievously. She wiggled her finger with one eye closed as she pronounced every word. "That was a feint."

"Feint?"

"No proper lady would try to win her gentleman with material things! That's disgraceful!" Lizzy said. "Now, Paula, ring the bells!"

"Y-Yes, my lady! Jingle, jingle!" Paula had taken out bells and shook them.

"Well, then, good afternoon!" Lizzy waved and they ran out the door. I cursed under my breath.

"So...what did Lizzy come here for?" Ciel asked.

"Tomorrow is your birthday. I imagine that is the reason." Sebastian replied. Ciel frowned a little. "Well, young master? Why not hold a birthday party? After all, it seems there are others who wish to celebrate you, too."
