The Demon, The Shinigami and The Maid

His Butler: His Angel

Sebastian walked around the estate slowly taking in the views as they slowly changed with each and every single window he passed. Since Alice had left, things had been far too silent in the large house and what was strange to him was the fact that even Bard and Finny had seemed to be down since her move to stay with Madame Red. The butler was annoyed, he was frustrated that his little Alice had been snatched away by Madame Red and he was filled with an anger towards the Undertaker for stealing her heart which he had lead himself to believe, belonged to him.

As he continued on his walk, he could not stop thinking about how Alice's lips felt against his with each kiss he managed to steal. It lead the butler to wonder what such kisses would feel like if they weren't stolen and actually agreed upon by the small female. 'Soon you will see that you mean more to me little maid.' he thought to himself stopping at her old rooms door.

He had at once been confused to why he always felt so strange around the small woman, but with her gone everything had been made as clear as day to him. He, Sebastian Michealis, a demon who was not meant to be capable of feeling emotions, he, the one with the heart as black as a moonless night, had developed feelings for the girl who was once the estates maid.

When Alice was still under his Masters control, Sebastian had looked forward to each day even though she was permanently hostile towards him, the small woman reminded him of a prissy little kitten when she was upset or angry. With his Master unable to control her, he had no say over her which made him angry with himself. It had been made clear that Alice wasn't returning back to her time, but they still didn't know if time would affect her since she was from a parallel universe, that was if one could classify it as that.

Without his Masters knowledge, Sebastian had left the estate each night for an hour at midnight to see what Alice was doing. If they were in town and his Master had other things to do, he would take detours and follow Madame Red and Alice around before returning to his Masters side. Alice was like a bright flame and Sebastian like a moth that couldn't keep away from it, though he knew well he was bound to get burned.

Grell had been irritating him to no end either and the demon was well aware that it had something to do with Alice, as innocent as she was she could be the devil incarnate when it came to her plots for revenge. 'She is deeply in love with the Undertaker... hmm... But she hasn't confessed yet. I might still have a chance.' The butler smirked as he walked through the hollow halls to his Masters bedroom to tend to him before he went to sleep.

Sebastian had something that he wanted to try do, but he wasn't sure if the outcome would be what he wanted or if he really wanted to go through with what he had planned. He'd never do it to his Master because the mere idea of his Master seeing his true form repulsed him to the very core, with Alice he was two minded. She had always shocked him when he had least expected it, especially when it came to her reactions to certain situations. Throughout her stay she had managed to remain unreadable when she was around him.

As he closed his Masters room he started blowing out candles along the hall ways, leaving the estate in darkness, the only form of light coming from his candles which soon faced the same fate the others had. Settling in his chambers he eyed the neat pile of pants in his closet and smirked at the image of Alice in his pants each time she had pinched a pair. Though at the time he had been angry at her for dressing inappropriately he couldn't hold it against the small woman. She looked good in what she wore and seemed to prefer the close fit of the material opposed to the billowing skirts he forced her into on more than one occasion.

He was curious as to how her time with Madame Red was changing her personally. He was curious as to how she would react in social situations even though before she was taken away she had faired rather impressively amongst the higher class guests she had encountered.
