Carol's POV
Today I was cleaning the floor in the foyer, the young master said that we were going to have a guest today. He didn't exactly give me the orders to clean down here, but I'm doing it because I was done with everything. I was also in a good mood today, like... Something good was going to happen. As far as I know, I felt a smile on my face.
"Look like someone wants to make everyone happy today." I turned to see Sebastian, without his tailcoat.
"Did Bard do something again?" I asked as I put my cleaning supplies away.
"He only tried to use the flamethrower to cook the meat, once again." He sighed.
"Aww.. Is my little demon tired?" I teased.
I was then pushed up against a wall. I look at Sebastian, who had an ever growing smirk.
"Don't get me aroused, love." I shivered a bit.
"You're lucky I love you." I said, puffing out my flustered cheeks.
"I love you too." Sebastian said, giving me a quick kiss.
We were interrupted at the sound of a carriage coming. I felt cold as Sebastian pulled away, we both knew what we had to do. So, we made our way outside, seeing that a carriage made a full stop in front of the mansion.
Something about that carriage seems familiar.
Sebastian opened the door and a man with brown hair stepped out. Sebastian and I bowed, greeting the man to the Phantomhive estate.
"Come," I said as Sebastian appeared by my side, "the young master is waiting."
I flashed a smile, but then heard the man stuttering and mixing up words.
"Sir?" I asked, I then got a closer look at the man.
A-Arthur...
"C-Carol...?" He hesitated.
I internally shook my head, determined to get back to work.
"Sir, follow me. The young master wants to see you." I said, more firm, as I spun on the heel of my boot and walked inside.
"Carol.." Sebastian muttered, fully aware of my sudden change of attitude.

"Young master?" I asked as I knocked on the door.
"Come in, Carol." I entered the room with the pair that was behind me.
"Your guest has arrived, sir." I said.
"Thank you, Sebastian, Carol. You both may leave." Ciel dismissed us both.
We were shocked but we obliged. We bowed to the young master, exiting immediately after. I walked down the halls, with Sebastian behind me.
"Carol.." I turned around to look at him.
"Yes?" I responded.
"I know that he's your cousin," I looked at the ground but then was engulfed in a hug, "but please act normal. Do this for me."
"Sebastian.. Alright." I nodded as I hugged him back.
"Good, now come on. Let's go before Mey-rin decides to break another tea set." He let me go.
I nodded as we retreated down the hall, only to catch Mey-rin in time before she tripped.
We have our work cut out for us.

Arthur's POV (😱)
I did have business with the Phantomhive estate. The truth is, I wanted to get Carol to come back home. Everyone is not working as efficient as they used to, so I asked them what the problem was. They all gave the same response, they miss Carol.
"What's your name? You haven't properly introduced yourself, you know." Lord Phantomhive said.
"My name is Arthur Gibson, my lord." I properly introduced myself.
"It's a pleasure to meet you. Now, you said you wanted to talk to me about something?" Lord Phantomhive asked.
"Yes..." I started, but then took in a deep breath.
"How much do you want for Carol?"

Ciel's POV
How much for Carol? Why in the world would he want to buy her? I know that she is just my maid, and I don't plan on losing her anytime soon. I feel like we have a.. Connection. Also, Sebastian would kill this man if he were to-
I internally smirk at my little thought.
Maybe... I could get rid of him.. But even if Carol were to find out that it was us, she would never forgive us. I just hope for some misfortune to come this man's way, he will not take Carol away from her home now. I could even make Carol get rid of him, maybe when she's super upset with him. But once she finds out, I think that'll be enough to make her snap, she hasn't fed on any souls and she's been acting normal.... Will Arthur release the killer demon that I met before on the streets?
"I do not want any money for my maid." I declined, but that only made him offer me more.
"No, I will not give Carol back to you. If I must say, she seems perfectly happy here, and she is in a relationship, a relationship that cannot be broken. I suggest-"
"I want her to come here and her so-called lover, I want them to say it themselves." Lord Gibson said.
He's persistent..
"Fine." I sighed as I rang the little bell that would bring Carol and Sebastian here.
Let the games begin. I'm curious to see what my demons will do when they find out.

Back to Carol's POV
Sebastian and I were sweeping the ashes that we had to clean because of Bard. He's so lucky that he's one of the very few humans that I like.. Then we both heard the bell, and we both knew what that meant.
"Do you want to go alone and let me clean?" I asked, not looking up from my sweeping.
"Come on, the young master probably wants us both. You know that your cousin is in there as well. I'll be by your side, always had and always will, especially through this." Sebastian said as he removed the broom from my hands and dragged me to the young master's office.
We walked in and we were met with a bored Ciel and a serious Arthur.
Oh dear Satan help me...
"Yes, my lord?" I ask as politely as I could.
"Carol."
I look at my cousin, cocking my head ever so slightly.
"I see you have changed. But now is not the time, go, pack your things, you're coming home with me."
My eyes flew wide open. I felt my hands tremble, which is the first time that this is happening.
No.. He's taking me back... I.. Don't want to... Sebastian...
Sebastian was as shocked as I was, maybe even more, he didn't answer my thought. I looked at my cousin, who held out his hand to escort me.
"No.. I'm sorry, Arthur..."
