You smile as you see a cat across the road. You pick up your steps as the calming noise of light rain overcomes your hearing. Distant muffles of whispering and laughing come from a diner, you wish that you were in there..
"Come on y/n, get a grip on reality."
You run towards this place you have so hoped to see yourself, you have only heard whispers and seen pictures of the Phantomhive Manor. You see it close to Your sight.
"Yes! I knew it!"
You exclaim to yourself as you run.
You try to run from the soaking rain that has ruined your f/c silk dress.
"I've run away from home for this, rain will not make me lose sight of this!"
You say this to pump yourself up as you get closer.
You run and hop over random items that are blocking the path. such a wonderful garden. A light is on in the window. Thank God they are still up. You think to yourself as you run to the door.
Knock, knock, knock knock knock.
I over-did the knocking..
You feel a little embarrassed for that.
You hope that whoever answers the door will let you in. You are far tired of your mansion back home, it's too big and lonely. You've heard that the master of this house is not the kindest, You are going to be on your best behavior so he will be nice.Your sight gets distracted as you see a beautiful black cat on the front steps of the porch you are standing on. It meows, You cannot resist kitties in the slightest. You pet and play with it until the door cracks. You play with it's soft paws, not realizing that the door has been open for quite a while.
"Ahem."
You see a tall man with raven hair and, dare you say, lovely red eyes standing before the door frame.
"Oh! I'm so sorry! I just....um.."
You look at the kitty one more time before standing up and dusting your f/c soaking-wet-dress.
"As I was saying....I came here to.."
You look at the door to see the man that was standing there is gone. You look over and see him cuddling the kitty. You go over and pet the cat's head before he lets it go.
"Her name is Celest, if you wanted to play with her some more, you could have asked."
You feel a little embarrassed and flustered.
"Oh I um..I barely know you.."
"My apologies Miss."
He stands up and offers you his hand. You take it and stand up.
"I am y/n, l/n. I'm very sorry to just intrude, but I have lost my way. I saw a light on, and a welcoming door. I thought I might be accepted to stay the night here if I asked..I'm sorry if I bothered you."
You curtsey and feel the soaking wet dress. You get a little bothered by the clingy-ness of the heavy fabric. It clings to your skin like a second skin. You slightly blush as it settles against your legs.
"I would have to ask the young master for this. I'll bring him if he accepts."
"Thank you very much sir."
"My name is Sebastian, but I am merely the butler of this estate, so you may call me whatever you prefer."
He gives you a bit of a smile. You can't tell exactly, but it looks sort of fake. You smile politely back as the door turns it's back on you, and slams. As soon as it does you get a feeling of loneliness aching in your stomach.
I haven't seen my family for days.....no. I can't miss them, think of how they have treated you y/n.
You think of the things that you said to them. Such fake things..
"Who are you, and why are you standing on my porch."
"I...I wanted to know, if you would be so kind as to accept me to stay for a-"
The door slams in your face. The feeling of loneliness returns sadly. The door opens again to the young man.
"Young master cannot be around cats, he gets very ill. He slammed the door because of the cat hair on your wet dress."
You fluster around with the dress and try to brush the cat hair off of it. You blush as that just made it worse. You fiddle around still trying to get it off, the man patiently waiting for you to turn to him.
"The young master says you can stay for the night, only because of your high status. Everyone is looking for you Miss y/n, why did you run away?"
You dodge the question and walk inside. You try to be polite, but it's really no use. You ask if they have anything you could change into. The young master looks at you, a safe distance from you and your cat fur on your dress. The young master requests for you to stay at the door and wait for clothes. You walk back to outside of the door, away from the rain with the porch blocking it. Sebastian gets a maids outfit.
"I'm very sorry, this is all we could acquire, We don't have lady guests over very often. The young master requests that you change outside, for you will drag the cat hair in otherwise. Here is a screen to change behind. We are sorry for these harsh circumstances."
"It's all right."
You look at the clothes, happy to put them on. So clean and dry, unlike what you are wearing now.
He puts the screen up and closes the door, leaving the clothes in your hands.
You change quickly and knock on the door. Sebastian opens it, and says to follow him. You follow behind him as the young master looks at you coldly. You shudder at his staring and go to the room Sebastian has now shown you. He says to you good night and leaves. You smile a bit at the room, it very much reminds you of home. You fall onto the plush bed, not bothering to explore around the house. You fall into a deep rest, waiting for the next day.
