Sebastian had lived a long, many personality life. the nice butler, the dangerous butler, one hell of a butler. he was used to the multiple faces he had, but never had he met someone with as many as him.

and then the (l/n) family approached him.

"our daughter, she's...quite the busy body."

"what my wife is trying to say is, (y/n) needs someone beside her to keep her attention. will you be up to it?"

of course, it all came down to Sebastian's interest, which started below zero. but when he finally met (y/n), his interest started to peak.

the girl was 18, pretty, well mannered, like any noble would be, but she was hiding behind something. just like Sebastian did. she was nice when he met her, smiling, politely greeting him—the perfect daughter. it certainly didn't mean (y/n) wasn't like that, it just wasn't...authentic, and it bothered Sebastian that he couldn't figure out what about her wasn't true.

he spent days trying to put his finger on it. days being subtle, trying to get a certain reaction, and it wasn't until (y/n) was leaving a ball that Sebastian was able to figure it out.

"why do they all lie to themselves like that to please me? I'm not such an interesting person." she clicked her tongue, leaning on the door to the carriage they were in, and Sebastian realized what was so different.

(y/n) was...bored.

not bored in a way Alois or Ciel ever would've understood. bored of the sucking up, the nobility, whatever it was her life entailed. that interested Sebastian, and somewhere in the back of his mind, he wanted to cure that boredom.

"master, I don't believe they are so simple to only want to use you for popularity." what did Sebastian get in response? a sigh, and a look from (y/n). a very, very bored and "I expected you to say that" look.

oh, he was very interested.

"if only I could believe you."

that morning, (y/n) didn't want to wake up. Sebastian had opened the windows, pulled the sheets off of her, and gave her the day's schedule, but (y/n) wouldn't get up for any of it.

"Sebastian, why do you try so hard to please me? my parents aren't even here..." (y/n) pulled the sheets over herself and turned away from him. for the love of all things holy, why couldn't he just let her sleep?!

"it has nothing to do with your parents. as your butler, I -" another sigh, and Sebastian was pulled down by his collar towards (y/n). she searched his face for something, maybe a hint as to why he was still here, before she let him go and got up.
