Sebastian x Reader
---your pov---
I woke up in the same room I was in before, the only difference was I was in a bed. The room was elegant the walls had wooden panelling along the lower part of them and the upper part was painted a wonderful rich red color. I sat up gently in the bed and tried to not hurt my leg again. It was then that I realised my leg no longer hurt. I swung my leg off the bed in order to inspect it, there was a new bandage around it and when I moved my leg around I could barely feel any pain at all. 
I had been dressed in some loose pyjamas. My face got really hot at the thought of Sebastian undressing me, but then it was obvious that my rags were still left on beneath my pyjamas so I cooled down a little. I knew I must still be slightly red, because the thought of Sebastian made my chest feel like it was on fire.
I got up out of bed unsure of what to do now, it was then that I saw the green dress at the bottom of the bed with a note folded up on top of the dress. The words on the page were a little hard to read…okay very hard…I can't read! I grew up in a hospital and then lived on the streets, reading was never really a priority. I removed the pyjamas and my street rags and put on the beautiful emerald coloured dress. It fell beautifully to the floor. I had never worn anything like this before it felt so expensive I was sure I would ruin it if I wore it for too long then I realised that well I didn't smell. It sounds a little disgusting, I know but I always had a certain smell around me since I never got the chance to wash, someone must have washed me.  I immediately blushed again. I brushed my ___(h/c)___  hair with a brush that had also been left on the bed for me, and washed my face in a nearby sink and then walked out of the room to go and explore and try to find out where I was supposed to go.
The halls were empty, in a mansion as big as this I always thought that there would be servants everywhere.
Just as I thought this, an old man was walking towards me with a kind smile on his face. "Excuse me miss, may I ask who you are and why you were coming out of mister Sebastian's room" he said in a very kindly way, my eyes widened at the thought of sleeping in his bed and I was sure I went slightly pink. However I was very at ease around him, I liked old people they were always the ones who would take pity on a poor girl on the streets and give her money or food.
I smiled at the man saying "Hello, I'm _____ nice to meet you, uhm would you please tell me where I can find Sebastian, he sort of rescued me last night." I tried my best to avoid the last part of his question but the old man's eyebrows still raised.
"It is very strange for Sebastian to take someone in without the young master's permission, you must be very special," he smiled gently. "Sebastian will be serving breakfast to the young master in the dining room at the moment I can take you there if you like, I am Tanaka by the way."
"that's very kind of you Tanaka, yes please show me to the dining room."
"of course miss _____, will you be staying long?"
"well Tanaka I'm not sure, I was brought here very late last night so I didn't really get a chance to understand what was going on," a slight laugh escaped my lips. "I kept on passing out" I explained.
"Well then I hope you won't pass out too soon." Said Tanaka with a confused smile, he stopped talking for a while as he led me around the mansion, we stopped at a door.  "Here we are, It was very nice meeting you, I can see why Sebastian would have taken a liking to you…" just then Tanaka deflated and looked kind of chibi.
"Wait what do you mean taken a liking to me?"
"Ho Oh ho" laughed Tanaka sipping a cup of green tea which he pulled out from nowhere.
"…O-kay…nice to meet you too Tanaka, thank you for showing me here," I smiled at the old man, and gave him a small bow, although he was strange he made me laugh, I liked this mansion. The people were strange but still so kind . I hope the 'young master' Tanaka mentioned briefly, won't mind me staying here for a short time.
I was about to knock on the door, but just then a young boy, he looked about twelve years old, came barging out of the room and bumped into me. He had blue-gray hair, an eye patch covering his right eye and his left eye was bright blue. He was wearing a very smart outfit. I knew this must be the young master.  "Watch out you stupid girl!" he shouted. I was shocked at his reaction to me, I wasn't sure what to do, so I bowed. "My apologies, young master, I'm sorry I don't know your name…I'm- " 
"I know your name _____" he said with a smirk, "sorry for snapping at you, I'm Ciel. I like your ears by the way,"
"eep!" was the sound that escaped my lips, for a twelve year old he was very intimidating, this made my very uncomfortable so naturally I started to transform. Ciel looked very pleased with himself, and he was clearly very amused at my distress.
"Young master." Called Sebastian's voice from within the dining room I was oddly excited to hear his voice. Sebastian appeared in the doorway behind Ciel .  At the sight of me and my ears his face flushed a little pink (this kind of felt good).
"Sebastian, would you please direct our guest to the living room and set up the chess board, I will be there in just a moment…Sebastian! Sebastian!" Sebastian was paying no attention to Ciel, instead his hand had slowly reached out towards my head, and he started stroking my ear with that smile on his face he had the night before when he found me.  Tingles spread all about me his touch felt right to me. I was happy. He made me happy. But I still wasn't completely sure I trusted him.
I cleared my throat, "uhm Sebastian…"
"mmm hmm" he sighed to show me he was paying attention to me while he was still caressing my cat ear, there were more tingles,  he then suddenly stopped as if he had just realised what he was doing. He cleared his throat, apologised to his young master. Ciel repeated his command and laughed smugly at Sebastian, "my my Sebastian, your weakness is certainly amusing at times, now show miss _____to the Living room I will join the two of you shortly." Sebastian glared at Ciel, then Knelt before his master and then simply said "yes, my lord"
Sebastian didn't even look at me again until we reached the door to the living room, I could tell by then my ears had disappeared. He looked a little disappointed.
"I'm sorry about that miss  _____, I have a slight…obsession with cats. I find them adorable, when I saw you injured outside last night, I had to help you. I had no idea you were merely a human who could shape shift."
"In all honesty I had guessed it wasn't me as a human you were interested in Sebastian. Although what I am curious about is why you are not very surprised about a girl being able to turn into a cat from time to time. That and for some reason the estate owns a demon dog, a creature which doesn't trust just anybody…who are you Sebastian?" He seemed surprised by my little outburst, but I was slightly ticked off that he openly dismissed my human form. However he remained very composed.
"my master is known as the Queen's guard dog, we see many strange occurrences in our line of work, however you are the first shifter I have seen. That is if you don't count Pluto…oh, he is the dog you referred to."
"pssh" yes I went pssh, "I hate dogs" Sebastian's eyes glinted wickedly.
"me too…speaking of dogs." I heard barking from behind me and something slammed hard into my back forcing me forward and I fell into Sebastian's arms.
"Ouch ouch ouch" I whimpered as I tried to block out the feeling of Sebastian's arms which were wrapped around me. I turned to face the dog who was licking the bandage wrapped around my leg and was surprised to see a stark naked man licking me…it was weird. He looked almost sorry though, 
"huh…he likes you" said Sebastian laughing slightly to himself. I wasn't so convinced…the man shifted into his dog form and instead of licking my bandaged leg he started to chew on it. Sebastian gasped and quickly scooped me up into his arms, before kicking the dog so hard it flew and skidded along the vast hallway. I was sure I would have transformed into a cat due to my experience of being a dog's chew toy. But alas all that happened was those ears appeared on my head once again. Sebastian was suddenly entranced, I actually had to clap my hands to get him to look at me again. He smiled…not sarcastically, not smugly…it wasn't a grimace or a smirk. It was a proper smile, and the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. My heart fluttered and I was sure I had gone red as a tail suddenly emerged from a neatly cut hole in the back of my dress. 
---Sebastian's pov---
She was truly peculiar, our new guest, miss _____ that is.  I was happy the dress I made her had fit her so perfectly. She seemed surprised that there was a hole in the back for her tail to poke through but she didn't question it as she was blushing enough at the fact I still held her in my arms. It always amused me to see the human female's faces turn various shades of pink and red, when I merely smiled at them, though I was sure I had never smiled like that at anyone before, even the little bra…young master.  On second thoughts I had never held one of them for this long before without even moving. I took a deep breath, her soul still smelt sweet. After I claim the young master's soul I would very much like to taste hers.
"erm Sebastian…can you stop staring at me you are making me feel nervous." She said shakily, but with a small smile on her face, her ears and tail had gone. I was just lost in the ___(e/c)____ coloured  eyes of a human girl, needless to say that was a first for me. 
"I do apologise miss ______. You are right. I'm sorry. The young master will be here soon. I'm sorry. I should get you inside the living room, do you know how to play chess?"  I said surprised by the amount of times I said sorry though she didn't seem to notice.
"I have lived on the street since I was seven, but the amount street side chess matches I've seen is quite extraordinary. I'm sure I could give it a good shot." She gave another small smile.
"well then," I said as I kicked the door to the living room open with her still in my arms, "I wish you the best of luck in your match, I do hope he young master will let you stay…I wish to learn more about you." Even I was surprised at that last part, I walked into the room still carrying her and placed her gently in the chair opposite Ciel's regular seat at the chess table. I quickly set the chess set up and started to play the violin next to where she sat. she closed her eyes and listened to me play for a while until Ciel walked in, strode to his seat, sat down, looked between me and miss ______, smirked and laid his head in his palm. The young master chose a pawn and moved it forward by one space, he looked at our guest with his eternal quiet confidence and said, 
"your move"
