Everyone that was around the demon couple was shocked, even Ciel was taken by surprise. He definitely wasn't expecting something like that.

"Y-you m-m-mean.." Mei-Rin sputtered, her body started to feel more and more weak. "She's your... She's...you...she...oh." Her shocked body couldn't handle anymore of what was going on and she collapsed where she once stood. Her body laid flat on the floor, her right arm covered her forehead. After a moment of silence Bard spoke up.

"That's pretty messed up, don't you think?" He said, "Being married to your own sister?"

"It's not as strange as you think." Sebastian said, still holding Cecilia. "In fact, it's quite common where we're from."

"And where is that exactly?" The chef crossed his arms over his chest and waited patiently for Sebastian to reply.

"I'd rather not be surprised three times in one day." Ciel said as he put his head in his hands. "I think we've all heard enough, unless you want to end up like..that." He pointed to the unconscious female.

"I understand master Ciel." Bard said, his mind still curious over what else Sebastian had hidden from him.

"Now if that will be all, get back to your quarters. I'm sure you've had a long day, I know I have." He ended his sentence with an exaggerated sigh. "Not you Sebastian." He said as he saw everyone leave. "I'm still hungry."

"I understand." The butler replied. Once everyone had left, he went over to his master. "What would you like in exchange for my desert chicken?" He asked.

"I'd like for you to tell me the real reason why you married your sister. If she's even that." Sebastian widened his eyes, his master didn't believe him...

"I was telling you the real reason." He said, "It's very common to marry siblings in Hell." He said calmly, "In fact-"

"I don't want you to give an example, you and your sister are all the proof I need!"

"Right, I'm sorry young master." Sebastian said.

"Save it." Ciel said, "I want you to make me sweets in exchange for ruining my meal." All Sebastian could do was bow in reply, he knew that if he refused, like he normally did, his master would engage in an act far worse then demanding.

"I shall bring your sweets." He said and exited the room, his heels tapping the wooden halls.

Bard had just completed washing the dishes Sebastian used to make the master's ruined meal, and he was about to exit just as the raven haired demon arrived. The cook stared at him, he knew Sebastian was still hiding something from him.

"So..you're married." The scruffy haired blonde said, his tall body leaning against the wall. "How long?"

"A couple of years now." Sebastian lied, they have married for more then a decade..newly weds in their minds.

"Uhhuh." Bard said, "How come I haven't seen you wear a ring?"

"I'm always wearing gloves, the white fabric covers it."

"Prove it." Bard wouldn't leave his spot, and Sebastian could see that. 'How childish..' Ran through the flustered butler, he tried to relieve it with a sigh. His left hand was brought to his face, and the white fabric was removed. It fell to the floor with grace, and there the males both stood, a silver band rested on its rightful place, on Sebastian's ring finger.

"Well well..." Bard said, "He speaks the truth." Sebastian wanted to glare, force him out of the kitchen..but yet, all he could do was stand emotionlessly after picking up the neglected glove. The chef wanted to interrogate the butler more, but his tired body wouldn't allow it. He waved the butler farewell and fled, leaving the butler alone to make his master his dessert.

...

"Young master?" The butler knocked on the closed door, "I have returned with your sweets.." His presence was announced, so the butler opened the door. The dessert would be ruined if he hadn't...

"It's about time." Ciel sounded irritated, "What took you so long this time, Sebastian?"

"I was stopped by an over curious chef." The Phantomhive butler replied.

"What did he ask?" The earl was a bit curious himself.

"How long I've been married, and where's the ring."

"Well?"

"We've been married for fifteen years, but I told him a couple." He said.

"Wow..." Ciel said in reply, "That's a lot more then a couple. I suggest you relearn your English, Sebastian." The young earl chuckled. "Now, show me your ring." He ordered.

"Yes, my lord." Sebastian bowed quickly for his master, before bringing his left hand up towards his face, and removed the white fabric. The silver ring was exposed yet again.

"Hmm, it's ordinary." Ciel said, "nothing extravagant about it, but yet it still looks good."

"Thank you young master." Sebastian said, not knowing if he was complimented or insulted.

"Now," he said before he ate the dessert set in front of him, "On a more serious matter. Your sister.."

"Wife." Sebastian interrupted.

"Sister!" Ciel hissed, "We must talk about her living spaces if she wants to stay here."

"She could stay in my chamber.." Sebastian said.

"Do you take me for a fool, Sebastian?" Ciel asked, "Did you think I haven't figured that out yet?"

"Touché." Sebastian replied.

"Now!" The young boy was starting to get irritated, "Your sister's living space... I assume you two do this, but I wanted to make sure this was true. Do you..."

"We're both demons, my lord." Sebastian replied, "So it's only in our nature to engage in such act."

"Are you two loud?"

"We will try our hardest not to bother you."

"That wasn't my question, Sebastian. It's me I'm concerned with. It's the other servants. Or, I could just give her a room next to Mei-Rin."

"B-but that's on the separate wing..."

"I know my estate, Sebastian." Ciel glared. "Now.. I'll have to think about this, but I'll allow you two to be in the same chamber for tonight. If anyone complains, she's with Mei-Rin. Is that clear?"

"It is crystal like your glass, my lord." Sebastian smirked. The same smirk appeared on the earl's face.

"Very well." Ciel began to eat his dessert, it had gotten cold. But he would just have to deal, it was his fault it turned out this way. "You may leave now, Sebastian." The butler had no more words to say, so he bowed before the young lord, and headed out of the study and towards his chamber. He knew that someone other then his hidden kitten was waiting for him.
