You Found Me

《8》

I felt Sebastian set me on a fluffy bed in a room that we just came through. I had on the most believable sleeping face that I could make. He brought the cover up to my shoulders. No no no, please. I'm sooo uncomfortable. Don't you just have one of those days where you just wanna sleep or lay down in almost nothing? Yeah that's how I feel right now.

"I've got it now, sir. No need to worry." Sebastian said to the still unknown man. The bed dipped down where my legs were so he must've sat down.

"Very well. Please come to the drawing room once you have finished." The voice replied.

"As you wish." The sound of footsteps and a closing door filled my ears. I peeped my eyes open as well as uncovered myself of the blanket that Sebastian had put on me.

"It's so hot in here." I whined. I look at Sebastian to see him smiling.

"I wondered when you'd 'wake up.'" He teased, holding up quotation marks as he said 'wake up.' I just playfully stuck my tongue out at him.

"Let's get you cleaned up. You do want to look presentable for the Royal Family." Sebastian got a turquoise dress out of the wardrobe that was placed next to a door that probably led to the bathroom.

"I am of the Royal Family." I chuckled but did as he said. Once again he helped me bathe. As he ran his gentle, ungloved fingers through my brown locks, I just sat there, mindlessly staring at the wall.

My head became dizzy as Sebby dried my hair with the towel. He helped me dress in the turquoise dress. It was made of the most expensive and soft silk. It hugged my slim waist very nicely.

After Sebastian had somehow dried my hair up, he put it in a bun with my bangs and a few strands of fringe down to frame my face. He put a black rose clip beside the bun to add a small detail.

We had a small conversation with ourselves in the room while Sebby fixed the white sheets of the bed. After he was done we walked into the hallway, but still held the conversation of nonsense.

I was surprised because he knew where the drawing room was. I mean I already knew that he has been here before but I didn't think he'd know how to get to the tea room.

Everyone's conversations came to a halt as Sebastian opened the door for me. In a literal second, Sebastian went from guy best friend to 'one hell of a Butler.' I gave him a smile as I walked in shyly with my hands behind my back. Everyone's eyes were on me.

I looked at all of the people in the room. The prince and Princess were on the large couch to the left of the door, holding hands. Another man sat next to them with his legs crossed.

To the right is Lizzie and Ciel. Lizzie was obviously trying to impress the Royals because if they weren't here she would've ran up to me and drown me in hugs. But instead if that, she sat with her back straight, her legs crossed and her head high. Good job Lizzie! And of course the queen was in the middle. A few butlers and maids were at the sidelines just in case we needed something.

"Hello darling. Come sit with us." The prince, aka my father, ushered. I happily sped walked over to my parents, a huge smile spread across my face.

They made a space between them, I squeezed in. They each took one of my hands and gave me a side hug.

I looked a Ciel. In his eye, I could see the emotion of envy and sadness. His face was emotionless but his eye/s always had some kind if emotion in them. I've learned how to tell what he is feeling.
His small emotion made my smile falter.

I just remembered that he doesn't have a family anymore. I feel so bad now. He lost his family while I just found mine.

He noticed me staring sadly a him. "I'm fine." He mouthed with a small smile. I let out a small breath. He just looked down and took a sip of his tea.

"Alexa was it?" The same smooth voice asked from beside my father. I looked at him.

Black hair, narrow blue/gray eyes, and a faint smile met my gaze. His eyes seemed to glow as they filled with love once they looked into mine.

"How are you Lexi?" My eyes widened.

••••

"Lexi come here darling." The, usually stoic male, chuckled. An ear-to-ear smile on his pale face.

The little four year old princess giggled and ran to her uncle. The male kneeled on one knee with his arms open, the girl opened up her arms as well. Once their bodies met, the male wrapped his arms around the princess and spun her in circles. Giggles, playful screams and chuckles were shared between the two.

The Prince, princess and Queen sat in the peaceful shade under a large umbrella as the two others played in the grass. The Queen sighed.

"Am I wrong saying that Rivialle looks a lot like Albert?"  (Just go with it) The queen then suddenly slumped onto the table, tears running down her cheeks. "Oh Albert! My love why did you leave?"

"My love I am right here. I never left. I am always by your side" John, the queens aid, said in monotone. He had a small puppet on his hand that was supposed to be a replica of her late husband.

The Princess sighed and shook her head. The Prince just chuckled but returned his gaze to his child and brother-in-law.

••••

I glanced at the carpeted floor. I don't know if that was a memory or a dream but it seemed real. Very real. But the last thing I remember of the name Levi/Rivialle was that he had a man friend. A man lover, but that was probably dream.

I looked at the male once more, a smile growing on my face. "I am better than ever, Uncle Levi." His smile also grew. In a second or less, I was in his arms. He hugged me as if I wasn't there. As if I wasn't real. As if he feared that I would be kidnapped again.

I returned the hug. I finally found them.

~ 3rd person ~

Lizzie looked at the duo as they hugged. She wanted to squeal and say how cute this reunion was but she wanted to impress everyone.

Ciel stared at the duo. Sadness, anger, envy. Many emotions filled his veins. He was happy for Alexa. He was happy that she was happy with her family. But then he remembered something that the princess had said before, the queen agreed to her decision.

"If it is alright with you, I would like if my daughter would come and live with us from now on."

He didn't want her to leave the manor. He wanted her to stay there and make his hate filled days, happy. Her gentle smiles and beautiful laughter, brightened up his days. When he was down or when he isn't feeling well, she would always be there to accompany him. Yes he may be a demon, who will witness many people's deaths and watch them leave the Earth, but he didn't want to see Alexa vanish. She was the closest thing he had to family besides Elizabeth. He wanted her to stay. But of course, he had to obey and fulfill the Queen's wishes because she as well wished for Alexa to live in the palace. Ciel let out an exasperated sigh.

He didn't want this. He didn't want any of this but it's what the queen asked, so he must do as she says. Exactly like a dog. He thought.
