Unwanted (Ciel X Alois)

Chapter 4

It had been 2 days since Alois had arrived at the Phantomhive household meaning tomorrow he would return back to his mansion. After the incident on his day of arrival, Finny had been dismissed from his usual duties of tending to the garden and was instead but on 'Alois duty' as he called it. Following Sebastian's orders Finny tried his best to entertain the Trancy master, surprisingly it wasn't that hard. The two had similar interests and both loved being outside. The two spent most of their day playing in the garden, running around chasing each other and picking pretty flowers. Much to Finny's surprise, Alois didn't try to annoy Ciel again nor did he ask about the boy's whereabouts. It seemed the boy realized he'd gone a step too far but was too stubborn to admit it.

Today, Finny readied himself for another day of fun. Trying to think of some different games he could play with the Trancy boy. He ventured to the kitchen where Mey-Rin and Baldroy were already munching on toast and various other breakfast foods.

''Good morning Finny." Mey-Rin was always the first to greet him in a morning, her raspy voice loud and cheerful. He smiled in the maid's direction, missing the slight blush that spread across her cheeks and sat on the wooden bench.

''Are you off duty again today?" Baldroy asked, taking a bite out of a piece of fruit. Finnian nodded his head and sighed.

"I don't know what to do with Alois today though." He said, piling his plate with food. "I don't want him to be bored of the same games." Mey-Rin opened her mouth to make a suggestion but what interrupted by the door opening.

"S-Sebastian!" She stuttered, shocked by the butler's sudden appearance.

"Good morning everyone. I hope you all slept well." The butler said, a small smirk tugging on his lips when he saw the servants nod aggressively.

"That's good. Finnian, I came to inform you that you will be back to garden duties today. The young master has decided to take our guest out for the day." The butler said his smirk now very visible to the servants. "As usual I would like for the manor to be cleaned while we are out and I would like Baldroy to prepare a packed lunch for the two young masters," Sebastian ordered before turning and leaving the 3 servants.

After being awoken by Sebastian and receiving the news that he would be going out today Alois was positively buzzing with excitement. He dug through his suitcase trying to find something appropriate to wear for the outing. Was it cold out? Was it warm? Did he need a coat? Should he wear his boots or his dress shoes?

The Trancy master ran to the window and glanced outside. The window was damp with condensation and the sky was cloudy. He decided he would wear his black dress pants instead of his shorts and a dress shirt with a purple waist coat, a little different from the green one he usually liked to wear. He quickly pulled on his dress shoes and his large purple coat and ran to the entrance hall.

"I'm sorry young master but are you lost?" A raspy voice spoke behind Alois as he patiently waited at the door.

Alois spun around to see the pink haired maid with the strange fogged glasses that didn't seem to help her eyesight at all.

"No. Do I look lost?" Alois spat, he didn't like the maid, from what he had seen she was useless almost as bad as Hannah was. The boy couldn't understand why Ciel had hired such a useless specimen to work for him,

"N-n-no! Not at all young master! I-it's just breakfast is ready in the dining hall and Ciel is waiting for you!" The maid said, bowing profusely. Alois almost laughed, in his excitement he'd forgotten about breakfast!

After breakfast Ciel finished getting ready and walked down to the entrance hall to meet the blonde earl. He wasn't as enthusiastic as the young boy was about his plans for the day but he didn't show it on his face. He nodded a small nod at Sebastian, who was waiting patiently to open the door.
