Flashback
I'm telling you. That is not an information I could leak so easily. It is classified." I frowned at the man's stubborness and the fact that he was eyeing me when i looked away.

"Come Adele, he won't tell us anything." Once we were outside he turned to face me.

"We need that information. If he doesn't want to say anything, we have use a different way. He seemed pretty eager to shove his tongue in your throat. Use that to your advantage." I cringed at the thought of touching someone like that in such way. He noticed.

"You don't mind, do you? You will even enjoy it, right?" He smirked devilishly. He got me trapped. I bowed to him.

"Yes, my master. I will get the information for you right away." I went back in hoping, it will be over soon.

-----------------------------------------

"We've arrived." Phantomhive manor was standing before us in its glory. I practicly rebuilt it on my own, so I knew every corner in it. I was expecting her to be more amazed than just eye it with no expression. Oh well. I started walking towards the main door.

"My master has to talk to you to decide on his actions and give you orders. He should be in his study. Know that if you do anything out of place, I am here to stop you." I paused as I was about to open the door. "And do try to not wake up our servants." She narrowed her eyes.

"Do you not trust me?" After a short silence I answered.

"I do trust you. It is what my master asked me to."

"So if it was you, I wouldn't be here." It was not a question. It was a statement. I didn't have to answer. Tension was built between us. We came to my master's study door and I knocked wishing this was soon over. Nothing could be heard, so I let myslef in.

"My lord?" He was sleeping on his desk. Waking him up had no effect. My master was in deep slumber. I picked him up and carried him to his room. Adele didn't say anything. When my master was safe in his bed I prepared myself to face her. I have to keep a cool attitude towards her. So there will be no feeling of being at home. She was waiting.

"As you can see, my master is not in state to give orders. So I shall take care of you." No response.

"You will need a new clothes. But unfortunately, Mey Rin is smaller than you, therefore her clothes will not suit you."

"That is fine, I can sew something together. Just give me some fabric."

"Not necessary. You can wear something loose for the night. Besides, we have no extra fabric. I will take care of that in the morning. Instead, I offer you one of my longer shirts." I guess a little teasing won't hurt. I wanted to see the bashful expression of hers again. Unfortunately she just furrowed her brows.

"I will not walk around in your shirt."

"Then I guess you have to go nude." She shot pointy daggers at me with her stare. Still worth it.

"Okay then, I will wear your stupid shirt. But where do I stay for the night?" I grinned. That was quick change of opinions.

"Come, I will show you." I led her to my room. When I opened the door for her she just stood there so I let myself in. I dugged in my drawers and took out the longest shirt I had.

"There you go, your clothes." I extended my hand towards her with ny shirt in it. She didn't take it, just kept looking around.

"Is this your room?" I dropped the extended hand.

"Why, yes it is."

"No way in hell I am staying here."

"Why not?" I leaned on the closet that kept few cats hidden. I have to get them out of there before she finds them. Who knows what would she think.

"What about personal space?"

"It is not like either of us have to sleep, so we have plenty of that." I don't understand, what is her problem? She stayed silent for that and extended her hand to me.

"Just give me the shirt." I threw her the shirt and pointed to a second door in the room.

"The bathroom is right there. And while you're at it, you could take a quick shower. I believe a scent of blood is not supposed to be smelled on a lady." She sent me another death glare. I think straightforwardness is under-aprecciated.

"Why, thank you." She said with sarcasm but then sighed. "I guess it could be worse."

"It could." I listened as Adele locked the door behind her and run the water. This is gonna be a long night.
