Chapter 13
---

It all happened so fast. You were going to die. Where? The location cannot be specified. How? The lack of breath.

"H-Help!" you choked out. You couldn't breath. Each thump of your heart sounded like thunder. Your breath was forced, and you couldn't breath. Though you managed to sneak some breaths in.

Was this the way your mom died?

Did Alois choke her to death?

You woke up. It was all a nightmare. Slowly, you turned over to the clock. 12:41 am. Then you turned around the other way and noticed Ciel was sleeping. You scooted closer to him and wrapped your arms around his neck. He opened his eye.

"Why are you awake?" he softly asked. You put and finger to his lips to shoosh him, and you closed your eyes lightly. You didn't want to go to sleep. All you wanted to do was cherish the moment with Ciel.

"I was going to ask you the same thing..." you softly said. He wrapped an arm around you and held you tight.

"Gimme it back!" you yelled as the shinigami held your diary up high. Yoi started jumping, trying to grab your diary from Grell.

"Nope!" he yelled back as you finally gave up. He opened up the book and flipped to a random page.

"Dear diary," he began to read, "today I have learned about reapers. I also think that I have a love for Ciel." You crossed your arms and looked away, embaressed.

"I-It's not that big of a deal..." you said as your face burned bright red. He continued.

"I also found out awhile ago that Alois was my brother. I hate Claude though. Also, Sebastian is a demon I've heard. It doesn't scare me or anything..." Meanwhile, when Grell was done the page, he set the book down and started laughing.

"What's so funny?" you demanded.

"I knew you liked him!" Grell blunt out. He walked passed you, and you followed him, leaving the diary behind. You started pondering.

"Why do you even care?" you eagerly asked. Grell stopped in his tracks.

"It's just something to look in," he replied, skipping out of the manor. You stared blankly at the door. The designs in the wood were fascinating. Why hadn't you noticed it before?

"(Y/N)?" You turned around, surprised to see who saw. You weren't excactly surprised, but you hardly saw Mey-Rin ever...

"Oh, hey Mey-Rin," you emotionlessly greeted.

"I was wondering if we can hang in my room or something..." she suggested. "We never get to hang."

"Sure," you replied, dragging the maid up to her room.

::

You and Mey-Rin socialized, gossiped a little, and, most often, told secrets.

"Alright," Mey-Rin started, "truth or dare?"

"Truth," you timidly replied. Mey-Rin was in deep thought.

"Who is your one and only official crush?" she finally asked. You knew that was going to come up.

"Uh... alright, since I'm honest..." you trailed off. You glanced at the door, then faced the maid again. "Ciel."

"Oh, I knew it!!" Mey-Rin exclaimed. Of course, she already knew it. All she wanted to do was see if you would be honest. "As many already know, I love Sebastian. He is, like, so hot!"

"I guess he is a little hot," you admitted. "Anyways, truth or dare?"

"Pass!"

"Can you even do that?"

"Truth or dare?"

Silence.

"Dare..." you said. It has been the truth for a while now.

"I dare you to go to Ciel's study, confess your feelings for him, and do whatever you wish with him!" Your face when as red as the blood from your wounds. You sneaked a glance at your amulet, then went out the door.

"Ciel?" you asked, knocking on the door.

"Come in."

You did as ordered.

"Well," you started, "it's about time I confess my feelings for you." He looked up, surprised. Mey-Rin on the other end snickered.

"I beg your pardon," he quietly said. You smiled shyly and looked down a bit. His gaze softens and you stare into his eyes.

His... eyes.....

They were the same color as your mothers. Your real mother. Memories flashed in your mind.

Then you remembered....

The funeral. The mourning. The low whispers.

You snsp out of it. "Well," you start to say, "I have been here for quite a while now." Ciel places his quill down and stares blankly at you.

"Young Master's?" Sebastian asked, opening the door. Anothing good moment... ruined.

"Yes?" you and Ciel both asked in unision.

"Tea?" he asked, getting out a tray of tea and two cups out of completely NOWHERE. You nod, and Ciel nods aswell.

Sebastian always makes you wonder...
