Carol's POV
I sit across from Ciel in the carriage, I stare out the window. I can feel Ciel glancing at me every so often. It's kind of uncomfortable, but he is my master now.. It gives me a weird feeling to say that..
"Lord Phantomhive? Is there something wrong?" I asked, turned to look at Ciel, whose face goes a slight shade of red.
"I-It's nothing.." He says before quickly turning away to look out the window.
I do the same but before I know it, we stopped. I look to see we're outside of a big mansion. T-This couldn't be the Phantomhive mansion!! Ciel saw my eyes go wide and chuckled.
"Yes. This is the mansion. Now then, shall we go m'lady?" Ciel asked as he got off the carriage with Sebastian's help.
"Thank you, Sebastian." I say as he helped me down as well.
"Your welcome, m'lady." He replies as he takes my bags and brings them inside.
Ciel and I walk in after Sebastian. I look around the foyer, it's very beautiful. I look towards the stairs to see a fading spot in the wallpaper. Have they recently took down a painting? I quickly look towards Ciel to see that he was looking at me.
"W-Well.." He stuttered, "I guess, I shall escort you to your room, whom you will be sharing with the other maid. It is late so she should be in the room now. So follow me please."
I followed him down a hallway, and it was beautiful, just like the foyer and the outside. I am very lucky to be here, my parents knew the Phantomhives, and I kinda knew them, but I don't think Ciel knows.. Or he doesn't remember, he was young at the time...
"Mey-rin?" Ciel knocks, there answers a woman with red looking hair, tied up in the back, with glasses. She looked shocked at first but then looked shy.
"Y-Yes, master?" The maid, Mey-rin, stuttered. She looked at me and looked at me in awe.
"W-Who is this, master? She is beautiful, yes she is." She said with a smile.
"T-Thank you." I stuttered. Wait- Why would I stutter in front of this human? What is wrong with me...
"Mey-rin. This is Carol, and she is going to work as a maid with you. If she needs any help, be sure to help her." Ciel said, as he turned to leave.
"Lord Phantomhive?" I turned to look at him.
"Settle in and change your clothes. Once you are done, get some rest. Tomorrow change into the maid uniform Sebastian will bring you, and Mey-rin will bring you to the study before she does her chores. See you tomorrow." He says as he looks at me over his shoulder. He sends a smile my way and leaves.
I closed the door, and turned to see Mey-rin unpacking my things. I went to help her, and we finished in a timely manner. She hands me one of my nightgowns.
"Y-You sure are lucky." Mey-rin said as I undressed myself.
"What do you mean?" I asked as I quickly unlaced my corset and threw my nightgown on.
"U-Umm... Well.. The master doesn't usually smile.." She says as she plays with her fingers.
"Really? I'll be honest with you, he looks a little adorable when he smiles." I say once I finish buttoning the the buttons at the top of my nightgown.
"S-So.. What made you come here?" She asks as she takes off her glasses. Is it just me or did her voice change a bit?
"Hm.... I used to run the Blackwood company, we served as merchants I guess you can say. My father used to run it before him and my mother died. I got tired of running it, so I was out and that was when I met Lord Phantomhive and Sebastian. They gave me this offer and I accepted." I explained, leaving out the part that they only wanted me was because I was a demon.
"Who's running it now?" She asked as she sat on her bed.
"My cousin, Arthur. I'm pretty sure that he's happy now." I said.
Then there was knocking at the door. I went to answer and opened it to find Sebastian with uniforms over his arm.
"Oh! Uh.. Good evening?" I said but my voice made it sound like a question.
"Good evening. You're starting to get used to this, I see. Anyways, I've brought your uniforms." He said as he walked to a wardrobe. I guess it's empty..
"Hn.. Fine then. Is there anything else besides a wardrobe change?" I asked, clearly making sure he can hear my boredom.
"Yes, actually," he turned towards me, "Would you like to take an evening stroll around the garden with me?"
I raised an eyebrow. Why in the world would he ask me? What is he playing at?
"Sure.." I said, still not buying this nice act.
The next thing I knew, Sebastian takes my hand and leads me to the bed, somehow with my shoes in his hand. He sits me down, almost forcefully, and puts my shoes on. He then takes my hand once more and leads me out the door. I managed to look back at Mey-rin, to see her give me a small, but sad, smile.
Damn it! Stop looking so sad and help me why don't you?!?!

Sebastian and I were walking through the garden. I found myself looking at some black roses.
They didn't have these when I was back at home. Well.. This is my home now.. I guess.
"Are you interested in the black roses, miss Carol?" I turned around to find Sebastian dangerously close to me. If someone were to push one of us, our lips would be attached.
"Maybe I am.. Maybe I'm not," I say as I step back a bit, "It's just.. They didn't have these before I left."
"They didn't grow them? That's odd." He said, unfazed by what just happened.
Honestly! How can he not be fazed by his own actions?
"Miss Carol. You're face seems to have more color than before. Are you blushing by any chance?" Sebastian asks, but that makes me realize that I was blushing.
DAMN YOU!!!
"N-No.." Wow.. Very convincing..
"Well then, I shall escort you back, the young master does want to see you after all. I mustn't keep you up any longer than I have." He said as he placed a gloved hand, gently on my back. Guiding me back to the manor.
I guess this will be interesting.
