2.Reincarnated in an Otome Game as a Maid

This was an idea I had when I read stories about reincarnation in Otome games. Most had the person reincarnated as the villainess, or their sibling. I wanted to change it up, so I went with being reborn as the maid. By the way, the song has nothing to do with the story. I just like it.

3rd Person POV

In a small room that was bare except for a few necessities, laid a young girl of the age 14. She was a rather beautiful girl. Long, silky, black hair. Smooth, creamy, porcelain skin. Peach pink lips. Almond shape eyes, the color of sapphires. Her name is Rei Sinclair. She is a maid of the Noir family. Since she has a rather plain and submissive personality, she is often overlooked.

As she slept unconcerned, little did she know this would be the last time she would be alive. As soon as she fell asleep, her soul left her body. In an attempt to survive, her body grabbed a soul and pushed it inside her body.

Tsubaki's POV

"Gasp!" I opened my eyes and sat up trembling. I looked around, not recognizing where I am. I was confused, didn't I die? I'm sure I died from a motorcycle accident. I looked down at body to check for injuries. To my surprises there were none from the accident. Then I began to notice something. My hands are... smaller than before. My chest size had also decreased. My hair is long and black. I got out of the plain bed and walked across the room towards the dresser. On the dresser was a small mirror. I grabbed it and looked at the reflection. In the reflection was a rather young girl. She could be considered to be a beauty. I think I've seen her before.

But who the hell is thi-ow! I knelt down and clutched my head in my hands. I felt like something was pounding on my skull. Suddenly a flood of memories went through my mind. They would flashed back and forth, making my head hurt even more. Then as soon as it came, it went away. I sighed in relief. Ah... I remember now.

I had been killed in a motorcycle accident, I died. And I took over this girl's body as she her soul left her body. She had died at the same time as me. I was previously 23 and had dyed my short black hair, dark blue. I had brown eyes and was near sighted, so I wore gold contacts.

Now, I have long black hair and natural blue eyes. Suddenly it hit me. I remember where I saw this girl from.

"Wait... Isn't this the maid from the Otome game that Suzuki (A/N: Tsubaki's cousin in previous life) played? Fated Lovers - Fantasy Dream. I think her name was Rei Sinclair." 'She was a background character that appeared once in a while. She was known to be a timid character that had done whatever her master's fiance had told her to do because she was scared. Because of that she was killed. Suzuki always ranted about that. 'The maid was too pretty to be killed but had a plain personality. "If only she had your personality, Tsubaki-chan, then all the targets would of fallen for her. The heroine's not even that pretty and her magic might be uncommon, but it's also weak." She said.' I remembered this with a deadpan expression on my face.

I put my hand under my chin and sighed. Not in disappointment, but in relief. I definitely did not want to fall for one of the targets of the game, nor did I want to be a target of the villainess. I guess I should be I'm happy to be just a maid. Wait a minute, how old am I? What part of the game am I in? Perhaps I could save myself from death. I looked into the reflection. She looked pretty young, well at least younger than in the series. About 14-15 years old, I guess. I smiled, and the reflection copied me. Suddenly, I heard knocking from the door.

Knock. Knock. Knock. I turned around, startled. "Who is it?"

"It's Maria. Are you awake, Rei? It's time for us to do the laundry." A quiet voice asked behind the door. I snapped out of it and answered, "Y-yes. I'm awake. I'll be out there, soon. Could you wait for a few minutes?" I looked around for a brush and found it on the dresser. I grabbed it and quickly brushed my hair making it look neat. I took off the nightgown I was wearing. And switched it with a maid uniform I found inside the closet.
