"Good morning, my lady." Sebastian said opening a curtain.
"Morning Sebastian-kun." Ella said. She quickly shot out of bed. "I'm so sorry! I didn't realize how unprofessional that may be! Would you like me to call you Sebastain-San?"
"No. That's fine with me, m'lady." He replied.
"How old are you anyway?"
"16. And you? If you don't mind...."
"Nope. Not a problem. I'm 14."
"Ella-Chan!" I heard Lizze yell.
"Oh dear. Sebastian, please don't tell her I'm here!"
"'Course not, m'lady."
"Oh, please don't call me that. Call me Ella."
"Ok. Ella, there's a ball tonight. Young Master wishes for you to attend."
"Totes, I will be there. Bye for now! See you at the ball!"
***************
"Ella-Chan!" Lizze called.
'Rats, she found me' Ella thought.
"Ella! There you are!" She said out of breath.
"Uh, yeah. Here I am." She replied.
"Anyway, what are you going to wear to the ball tonight?"
"Um, geez I hadn't thought about it..."
"WHAT?!? We must go shopping!"
'when is there ever an occasion when you don't want to go shopping'
"Sure."
**************
"Oooh! what about this one Ella?!?" Lizze asked.
"It's just like the others; beautiful." She replied emotionless.
"Oh come on! There's got to be a dress you like!"
A lady walked in front of us with a teal dress in hand.
"Well..." She said. "Ma'am, may I see that dress, please?"
"You don't want that dress! It's on clearance. Do you know what that means?!?" Lizze said terrified.
"*crosses arms* Yes, and I don't care. You wanted me to pick a dress, and I choose that one."
"*sighs* Ma'am, may we see that dress?"
"Of course." She said, handing Lizzie the dress. Lizzie gave the dress to Ella and she tried it on.
"I love it!"
"Then lets get it."
Lizze got a pink dress and Ella got the teal dress.

"So, who are you taking to the ball?" Lizze asked. They had just gotten ice cream and decided to chill near the fountain.
"Huh? I didn't know you had to take someone to a ball." She replied.
"You don't have a date to the ball?!? Who ever will you dance with?!?"
"I dunno. I'll probably just stand in the corner and watch you and Ciel dance."
"Nonsense!"
When they got home, Ella went into her room.
"Hello, my lady." A female voice greeted.
She screamed. "Oh goodness, Mey-Rin, it was just you."
"Yep. I'm here to get you ready for the ball."
"Oh, ok."
An hour later, Ella didn't even recognize her own self.
"You look gorgeous, m'lady."
"*sighs* Please dont call me 'm'lady'. Just Ella will do."
"Of course m-I mean Ella."
****************
"Sebastian! I want you to dance with Ella!" Ciel said.
"Of course. But may I ask why?"
"Elizabeth came into my office crying about how Ella didn't have a date to the ball."
"Oh. Well I will make sure to please you, Young Master."
"Thank you."
***********************
"May I have this dance?" Sebastian asked Ella.
"Um, sure." She replied.
For a moment, just for a moment, Ella felt like she belonged; not to mention adored.
