『Chapter 2』

The whole trip to the manor was dull. You would often drift off to your mind, ignoring the conversation between the odd people. Though Ciel would sometimes ask you questions related to the job.

It felt like hours until you finally reached the manor. "Welcome to my estate, Y/n," Ciel remarked to which you respond with a nod. Sebastian was the first to get off the carriage, helping the young Earl step down the short steps.

Sebastian was kind enough to offer you his hand once more. You grimaced to yourself for letting someone help you. Figuring this would be your new lifestyle, you took his hand as he helped you down. "I thought you might refuse for one second," Sebastian said as if he was reading your mind.

"I was. Maybe I should have." You snapped at him. You walked down the step, taking a view of the manor.

Sebastian stood behind you, thinking to himself, 'She's a tough one... I like it...'

You spot some little figures from the window as they made their way out to the front door. "Ohh they are home! Yes, they are!" A girl with red hair sprinted her way out.

"Oh? Who's she, Mr Sebastian?" The girl asked, relating to you. You tilted your head as you inspected her. She wore a maid's dress and was using round big glasses.

"Meyrin, get the others," Sebastian said, sending Meyrin a stare. She nodded and ran back to the manor.

"Sorry. She's one of our housemaids. You'll meet the other soon." Sebastian smiled at you as he then led you inside the manor. You nodded at his sentence.

"Sebastian, get her cleaned up and guide her on her first week here. I'll be in my study." Ciel requested, glancing at Sebastian then at you. "Yes, my Lord." Sebastian bent over as Ciel made his way up the stairs.

"It's you and me now..." Sebastian turned to you, chuckling his words. You furrowed your brows, giving him a side glance. "Excuse me?"

"What am I saying?... Where are they!?" He shook his head and averted his gaze from you. You scoffed a breath and crossed your arms. Heavy footsteps emerged from a hallway from your right. You turned around and caught four other servants.

"Listen, everyone! This is Y/n L/n, she will be working with us from now on." Sebastian gestured at you. You put down your hands on your sides, The servants began to introduce themselves.

"Oi! Nice to meet ya'. I'm Baldroy. Call me Bard and I'm the chef here." A young man with a white uniform introduced himself, a cigarette in his mouth. You nodded at him, acknowledging his words.

Next to him was what it looked like to be the gardener. He wore a yellow shirt with a straw hat hanging behind his back. His blonde bangs were held by red clips. "Hello there, Miss. I am Finnian, the gardener, you can call me Finny." Finny happily cheered, rushing at you and shaking your hand enthusiastically. You let out a short, nervous laugh, slowly pulling your hand away.

The next one was the maid which Sebastian spoke of earlier. "Hi, miss! I'm Meyrin," Meyrin said with a soft smile.

The last one was a..... Well, you'll see.

"Excuses, Miss (L/N)." Sebastian halted. He strolled in front of you and introduced the last man. "This is Tanaka. He's like this for some reason." He focused on Tanaka.

"Ho...ho...ho." That was all Tanaka replied.

"It was a pleasure to meet you all. I hope we can work together well." You brightly smiled, giving them a bow. Spoke some truths though, you were somehow interested to be working with them. These... Nice people, you thought. It's just that you've never met anyone else so nice, or so excited to get to know you. You liked that feeling.
