Lover to one, daughter to the other. A black butler fanfic

Chp.18 Preperations

Lune runs up to the Phantomhive estate in little under a day. She runs up to the garden, where Ciel and Sebastian were talking. This would be fun.

"Lune? Where is Rouge... oh... Well that is one way to get around." Ciel says, watching as Lune puts me down and I scamper of behind a short and plump bush that would hid my body but short enough that my head would show so I could talk. #rouge is like 5 foot something. she is short#

As soon as I was well hidden as to not be revealing I change into my half state. "Hello Ciel, Pigeon. How have you been?" I say, currently not happy with that crow. Ciel coughs, blushes and turns around abruptly. "No need to be modest Ciel, I am well covered." Sebastian is there chuckling.

"W-we have been good. Where did you disappear to?" Ciel asks half turning around, still flustered.

"Yes, where did you go? Also would you like me to fetch you some clothes?" Sebastian asked, obviously just asking because of his job.

"Your coat should be fine. And I was off visiting my father." I say as I give the butler a death glare. Sebastian takes off his tailcoat and hands it to me and I slip it on. It is much to long and I can barely button it over my chest so I leave a couple of buttons undone. "I discovered that he is the butler of a very annoying little brat by the name Trancy, Alois Trancy." At that ciel turns and glares at me, well not at me but at the thought of Alois.

"HE IS ALIVE!? SEBASTIAN HOW DID YOU NOT KNOW THIS?!?" Ciel turned on Sebastian.

"Well you never asked me to find out. Also should we not be addressing the matter of Lady Rouges father?" Sebastian asks, hating that idea more then Alois. I stepped out from behind the bush, in a very revealing tailcoat, that dragged behind me, came up to mid thigh and was very flattering around my chest. Sebastian gawked slightly, and ciel went red all over again.

"Please, this isn't that bad, we could go to the beach and go swimming, that outfit would show a lot more." I say, having a thought. "Speaking of-"

"Absolutely not! I hate the beach." Ciel said, catching my drift before I could say it. "Besides, I want to know more on the Alois subject, we can discuss the father issue later. For now, we will go inside and prepare for a masquerade ball for our new case. We will discuss our plan after Rouge is in proper attire for said ball." Both Sebastian and I nod. "Sebastian, help her into the dress that has been chosen." Sebastian smirks, and I groan.

We go inside and ciel goes of to his study as Sebastian and I walk in silence to my room. We walk in and I see this beautiful turquoise dress on the bed, not my favourite colour but it would fit me perfectly.

"Well shall we?" The crow says, going to undo the buttons of the coat.

"A-a-a-a not until I am in my undergarments." I say before going behind the privacy blind. I quickly pull on my underdress and walk out so that Sebastian can start putting the dress on me.

He drapes the skirt over my head, pulling it and the light frame down to the ground. "This dress doesn't work with an underdress, so you will have to take it off."

"Could you not have told me before?" I ask as I pull the dress off, not being ashamed of my body. "Though I should warn you, touch me without permission and I will break your hand, you will heal, then I will do it again." I add, getting the message across.

"I would never think of it." He says, at which I scoff. He gets the corset around me without touching me and starts tightening it, making sure to tighten higher then he needs to.

"Are you trying to make my bust fall out of the dress?" I ask, a little breathlessly. He chuckles and loosens it slightly. After he finishes with the corset, he helps me into the bodice and top of the dress. He arranges the last touches like making it seem like one piece and tying my hair up to make it look like my ears are part of the costume.

"You look absolutely beautiful. It is breathtaking." He says, handing me a feathery mask with beads hanging from it to distract from my facial details.

"Are you going in costume?" He nods. "Are you growing as a crow? Or a demon?" I chuckle, finding the fact that he will basically be telling the world what he is and no one will know.

"You will see." He says before bowing and leaving.

I walk out of my room, not caring where Sebastian goes, and make my way to Ciel's office. I knock once before walking in. "So what is this new case we have?"

"Well, there have been a lot of deaths following balls, not very specific connections but we suppose that it is related to masquerades and the killer shows up and chooses someone who has been doing things against the Ten Commandments. So tonight, we will be going as fiancés and you will start to fake interest in Sebastian who will be going as someone unknown to us." Ciel explains. I groan again.

"Why can't I be fiancés with Sebastian and feign interest in you? I would be a lot more convincing." I say, trying to get out of having to flirt with Sebastian.

"You might be more convincing but I wouldn't be." Ciel retorted.

"Besides, my lady, I will sweep you off your feet tonight." Sebastian added, running a hand up my bare arm. I shiver and step away. "See, you are already warming up to me. Before you would have smacked my hand away."

"Very true." Ciel added and I glared at him.

"Fine, but if I walk away to go throw up, you will know why." I say, being snarky. Ciel chuckles, and we get ready and make our way to the carriage.

"Now, Tanaka will be our driver tonight, because we want to arrive separately from Sebastian." Ciel explains as he steps into the carriage, turning around once inside to help me in. "Don't be afraid to kiss either of us or be close like a normal couple would. Also you are to be referred to as Cynthia Ardville tonight. I am going to be Andrew Crest." I nod.

"Who will Sebastian be?"

"You will have to find out, it makes it more credible." I frown at his response, knowing it's true. At that moment, the carriage starts to move.
