Unwanted (Ciel X Alois)

Chapter 1

Ciel sighed as he swirled the last of his earl grey in his small china cup. Life had become so boring lately, the queen had taken a brief vacation and was visiting family somewhere up North meaning Ciel had not been given any orders from her majesty. He sighed as he glanced down at the array of papers scattered across his desk. He wish he could have a break, being so young and having so much responsibly wasn't easy. He hated all the paper work that came with his position and hated that he was too proud to pass the burden onto his butler.

As routine, a knock on his door echoed through his office. The door swung open and in entered Sebastian, the tall butler carried a silver tray with an array of different puddings on.

''Young Master, 3 O'clock tea is ready. Today's choices are apple crumbly with custard, a strawberry and white chocolate cheesecake with a sweet strawberry glaze or a slice of the finest chocolate cake.'' Ciel stared at all the puddings licking his lips at the smell alone, how was he supposed to decide? Could he possibly eat all three?

''...Young master? Ciel?'' Ciel was pulled from his thoughts by the soothing sound of his butlers voice. ''Which would you like?'' Ciel frowned and glanced back at the puddings.

''I'll have the apple pie.'' He huffed, unhappy that he knew he wouldn't be able to eat all three.

Sebastian set the steaming hot desert infront of his master and put the tray to one side. "A letter arrived for you, young master." He informed, placing the white envolope next to the young masters snack.

Ciel sighed as he opened his draw and pulled out his small letter opener that had been passed down to him from his deceased father. He flipped the envelope and studied the seal, it wasn't the usual seal he was used to on a letter sent from Her Majesty the Queen. No. This seal, though still red in colour and perfectly round, was different. A spider was imprinted where the crown duels would usually be and underneath the word 'Trancy' was carved in cursive writing. Ciel frowned, he knew of the Trancy house hold and its incredibly annoying resident. Alois Trancy. The two had met on numerous occasions, their last encounter almost resulted in Alois' death had it not been for Sebastian and Alois' equally over protective demon butler Claude stepping in and putting an end to their quarrel. Word had spread that Alois was recovering well from the wound the Queens Guard Dog had inflicted, though this displeased Ciel he was hoping that it would have least warned the Trancy boy to stay away.

He used his blade to neatly slice open the envelope and read the letter inside.

Dear Master Of the House hold

It has come to my attention that I, Claude Faustus, need to go away on business for a few days. After the unfortunate event of Master Trancy's other butlers leaving their jobs, me leaving would result in Master Trancy being alone while I am gone. This worries me deeply as the young master is unable to look after himself. It would help me deeply if you would be able to take the young master into your home temporarily.

Please write back soon

Sincerely

Claude Faustus

So the rumours were true, only Claude had stayed by Alois' side after that evening. Rumour had it that the 4 other servants had taken their leave for some unknown reason, Ciel had a feeling Alois was simply too much. He knew the 4 butlers were all demons, however they did not have any ties with the young master meaning they could come and go as they please, only Claude held the unbreakable contract. Ciel groaned and handed back the letter to his butler.

"Tell Claude; Trancy is allowed to stay, however make it clear this is not for my benefit. The queen, for some reason, wants to keep the pest around.'' The young boy order, wrinkling his nose in distaste.

His butler bowed and took the letter and tray before leaving his young master alone once again.

Alois Trancy sighed as he wondered the halls of his large mansion, he was bored and wanted something to do. Usually the triplets would entertain the young master, however after their disappearance Trancy was left with nothing but his stone faced butler as entertainment. His butler however was no where in sight, he said something about packing for a short stay at the Phantomhive residence. Alois smirked, Ciel was indeed a stupid boy. After sparing his life, Ciel had decided to ignore the earls exsistence entirely. That however, doesnt work in this world. The exsistance of an individual can not simply be ignored, especially not an individual like Alois Trancy. He simply would not allow it.

It was a stroke of luck that Claude had to go away on business, what business Alois had no idea and he simply didn't care. All he cared about was that once again, he would be able to see Ciel Phantomhive, after all he never got to thank the young boy for sparing his life.

Alois thought back to the when Ciel had inflicted the almost deadly wound on him, he still didn't understand what had triggered such a reaction. He hadn't been a treat to the boy, he simply wanted to play with him. Maybe even be his friend, after all they had very similar pasts and even shared a similar life style. Having demon butlers wasn't something that happened on a daily bases. Alois had never had a real friend since Luka. His eyes burned slightly at the memory of the small boy, his big eye and brown hair flashed through his mind. Though Alois would not admit it, he was incredibly lonely. He simply wished he could have just one friend. Who knows? Maybe him and Ciel will become friends in the end.
