~~~Your POV~~~
Your butler had just entered your office where you had been for hours working diligently on paperwork for your recently deceased parents. Usually you wouldn’t have been bothered with silly paperwork but now that your parents had killed themselves recently leaving you one of England’s wealthiest orphans. However, you still had your trusty butler you were contracted to.
“Lady (L/N),” he proudly said. “You have a letter,” He explained carefully. He approached you slowly carrying a silver platter you had once had high hopes that it had food under the cover. Instead he pulled the cover off and held out the platter with a small envelope leaving you still very hungry and slightly angered.
Still you look at your butler overtop of the glasses that framed your face. “From whom,” You asked. He looks back at you and smirks, deviously. Remaining silent he placed the platter over top of your paperwork. You look at him staring directly into his golden eyes ignoring the fact they were hidden behind frameless glasses. You furrow your eye brows angrily glaring at your butler as another smirk forms on his face; you grab the letter on the platter and look at who it’s from, your face softens.
“Phantomhive,” You scoff. You raise an eyebrow in confusion and turn he envelope around thinking it’s just some joke, instead you see nothing else but the Phantomhive insignia stamped into the wax seal. You remove your dagger from the desk drawer and open the envelope. The corners of your lips twitch into a smirk. You had previously known the bratty bossy Phantomhive boy being forced to work a case by your parents. You questioned their intentions often sending their only daughter on some crazy police case with a whiny wimpy brat who didn’t know what he was doing. Yeah, that’s totally safe. You thought remembering the case that nearly got you killed.
The case where you met Ciel Phantomhive and the creatures of evil around him, his insane homicidal aunt, his demon butler, Sebastian, and that crazy red haired ‘Shinigami’ Grell Sutcliff. Sure Ciel was a pain in your ass; but there’s was something about him that attracted you to him. Maybe it was his deep sapphire eyes or his dusty midnight blue hair that was so close to black yet so far away. Your feelings only grew stronger for that blue eyed angst filled young teenage gentleman.
“Prepare my pirate costume.” You order. “We’re going to a ball…” From that moment you'll be out of place and underdressed. I'm wrecking this evening already and loving every minute of it. Ruining this banquet for the mildly inspiring and... You sing in your head. Your deviousness was evident in the smirk plastered on your face. Your butler gives you the same evil sour smirk that Sebastian gives Ciel. Only appropriate for those who are simply one hell of a butler, He bowed his once golden eyes shining with a devilish shade of pink.
“Yes… your highness.” He purred. His bow was impolite, and his smile was sour, Just the way I like it Claude. You’re smirk was just as sour as Claude’s. Be careful Ciel… you think as you finish off the paperwork. You smirk and stand up and push away from the desk to get ready.
~~~Ciel’s POV~~~
I smiled the first real smile in years; Sebastian slipped my coat on and tied my neck tie. I smirked unable to contain any of the deviousness I felt building up in my stomach. I was excited to see (F/N) and nothing, not even Sebastian could ruin that. I held my hand out and he shoved my cane at me. I scowled at my butler and shrugged it off. Sebastian turned around and walked out holding the door open for me. I scoff quickly and step out. I walk down the hall and sand at the top of the stairs watching people from all over start filing through the door. A familiar face, unfamiliar faces, and the faces of people who frustrate me or piss me off; however, it changed when she walked in. I wasn’t talking about Elizabeth, no this girl was beautiful beyond all reasoning. I can’t help but feel different around her. My plan was now set in full throttle everything goes according to plan!
“Please, leave all overcoats, canes and top hats with the doorman.” I beam. She smirked up at me giving me yet another devious look. I smirk and stride down the stairs and grab her hands and led her to the dance floor.
“When did you get all confident?” She asked with a raised eyebrow. I gave a soft smirk and danced around the room with her. She blushed brightly making me smile more. I could tell she didn’t want to be enjoying dancing not to mention with the fact that I wasn’t answering her questions.
“I'm the new cancer, never looked better, you can't stand it. Because you say so under your breath; you're reading lips ‘When did he get all confident?’” I practically sang. Her face showed an expression that was miles away from ‘I’m enjoying this’ making me smile in enjoyment that much more. “Next is a trip to the, the ladies room in vain,” I smirked. “And I bet you just can't keep up with, with these fashionistas, and tonight, tonight you are, you are a whispering campaign. I bet to them your name is ‘Cheap,’ I bet to them you look like shh--” I laughed again.
She glared at me again her face going bright red once again, red… looks good on her I thought deviously.I need to make her like this more often. I smirked more winking at her and let out a soft chuckle and pulled her closer.
“Talk to the mirror, oh, choke back tears; and keep telling yourself that ‘I'm a diva!’” I beamed. She looked at me with a raised eyebrow almost as if to say ‘really Ciel, honestly, when did you get so confident.’ Her face practically showing that she was actually enjoying this.
I smirked again and leaned in “I'm the new cancer, never looked better, you can't stand it. Because you say so under your breath; you're reading lips ‘When did he get all confident?’ Haven’t you heard that I’m the new cancer, never looked better, you can't stand it?!” I growled. She smirked and pushed away.
“Excuse me Ciel…” She scoffed playfully. “Haven’t you heard that I’m the new cancer and never looked better, and you can’t stand it~” (F/N) smirked.
“And I know, and I know, it just doesn't feel like a night out with no one sizing you up. I've never been so surreptitious, so of course you'll be distracted when I spike the punch.” I smirked. Her eyes went hazy and she looked directly at me; she grabbed my necktie and pulled me into a room slamming me against the door.
“Shut up!” She growled and pinned me on the wall. Someone who was willing to do this? I gave a small smirk and winked. “Kiss me confident boy!” She growled hungrily. I nodded grabbing her shoulders and pinned her against the wall.
“Alright,"
