Third Person POV

The red head learned a lot from Sebastian. Things like making tea, doing chores properly, cooking (Probably doesn't want Baldroy to destr- cook) and of course, giving the Earl lessons.

Although Sebastian was impressed with Elise's fast learning, he had to tolerate the amount of sarcasm and name calling thrown at him.

He recalled being called 'Sebastard', 'Sebasstian', 'Sir Dick', the list was endless. He had wondered what the word 'Dick' meant, but he knew it was a supposed insult to him.

Sebastian had asked the blue eyed butler what it meant but all Elise did was smirk.

Since the word 'Dick' has yet to be common in this era, she decided that it would be easy to call them names without them knowing what the meaning was.

-Flashback-

"Well, Sir Dick, perhaps when you get older, like over a few hundred years later, you will know the true meaning of 'Dick'." Elise smirked at him. "You are still too young, young grasshopper."

The red head saw a vein appearing on Sebastian's forehead. "Well, Elise. I am, by far, older than you, so I must know what that particular word means. Respect your seniors, Mister Elise." He forced a smile.

"My! Mister Sebastard! Are you admitting that you are old?! What a shock! But you look SO young! What did you do to remain that youthful look?! No wait! What is your REAL age?!" Elise faked a gasp as she saw Sebastian's smile got sharper.

"But alas, you can't tell me! For you must be sensitive about this topic! My most sincere apologies oh fellow butler! I have chores to attend to now, farewell my emotionally sensitive friend who is very much old and do not wish to speak about it for he is actua-" "Elise." "Yes, Sebastian?" "Please do keep your mouth shut before I sew it." He glared at her as she inwardly cackled.

Elise faked another gasp. "But of course! I promise I would not tell anyone about your very VERY old age. Well, then, I shall be off, Old Man Sebastian~" And so the red head skipped away.

-Flashback End-

Sebastian sighed. Elise was a weird 'boy' who lived in the streets. He is smart, very educated, his knowledge on medicine is astounding and he walks with grace like a noble.

He wondered if the 'boy' grew up in a noble family and his entire family was apparently dead. But, in his research on the 'boy' as according to the Young Master's order, there was no such person named 'Elise Emerson' or any noble family names named 'Emerson'.

Sure, there were some peasants who were named Emerson, but they were all too poor to afford education.

He found it strange, it was as if the 'boy' never really existed. The 'boy's' presence was... What he would call other worldly. It wasn't of any soul he had seen so far.

A soul so dark yet so very bright.

-Timeskip-

Elise was then told (ordered) by Sebastian to help out the helpless trio.

In catching mice. Because clearly Sebastian was too busy to serve the guests. 'Utter bullshit' as Elise would say. "You just don't want to catch the darn mice." The red head grumbled.

"Pardon me, Elise, but would you please repeat that again?" Sebastian smiled 'pleasantly'.

The blue eyed butler gasped in surprise. "What? You did not hear what I said? Your hearing must be deteriorating! Poor poor Sebastian! Is your old age getting to you? Oh! How horrib-"
