How to Survive in Black Butler (Black Butler x Reader)

Chapter 19

(Y/N)'s P.O.V

"Holiday, holiday, we're going on holiday!" the servants sang in the other carriage with smiles on their faces. Their excitement showed as they happily chatted amongst each other. I sat back down in my seat as I looked at Ciel's poker face.

"Do you hear how happy they are? They're very grateful to you. Such a kind young master." Sebastian said as he drove the carriage. I tried holding back a chuckle but it was too much.

I bursted out laughing and pointed at Ciel's direction, "Kind young master? He threw a dart at Finny's head!". Ciel growled and shot me another 'deathly' glare. Well, it wasn't as bad as before though. This one seemed a bit more...softer.

"I couldn't leave them there alone. I might come home to find the manor in shambles." Ciel stated whilst looking straight ahead again.

"They were alone for like two days when we were in my world and the manor wasn't a complete mess, " I said in defense of the servants. They deserved some credit.

"Well, not at that moment..." Ciel trailed off trying to find something to say but Sebastian interrupted.

"Indeed.It seems we've arrived at the village, everyone." I looked around and saw a tree with dog collars hanging on the branches, dog bones, and a sign that said ' Welcome to Houndsworth'. The servants screamed in fear and huddled close to each other. I looked around in shock. When I first saw this in the anime I didn't think it would be this bad, but really being here made me understand why they screamed.

Ciel turned around nonchalantly and looked at the servants "Oh yes, I forgot to mention something:the resort that the Queen is planning has yet to be constructed." Mey-Rin, Finny and Bard all cried and replied with a solemn "Yes master"

"I knew I should have just stayed at the manor" I said dejectedly and let out a long sigh.

~Timeskip~

As we neared the castle where Ciel was going to talk to Lord Henry a woman was standing at the front door waiting for our arrival. I already knew who it was and my eyes glared at her form. Sebastian glanced at me and smirked.

"I presume this is the Earl of Phantomhive" 'Angela' stated while standing a few feet away from the carriage.

"Yea he is," I said and her head spun quickly in my direction. She scanned the group quickly but I felt her eyes linger on me for a second more before she continued.

"Welcome to Barrymore Castle. My master awaits your arrival." she said. I looked at Finny and he was mesmerized by the woman's looks, and so were the others.

"She's lovely, yes she is," Mey-Rin gushed.

Hah that's what you think.

I walked in with Sebastian and Ciel and were heading towards Lord Henry's room. When we neared the door Ciel went in first with Sebastian behind him when I was about to go in Angela stopped me right at the door.

"Lord Henry only wants to see the Earl, I'm afraid you can't go in" She said whilst blocking the door with her hand.

"But I'm supposed to hel-" I began but was cut off by Ciel standing next to me.

"(Y/N), go help the others unpack the luggage. If Lord Henry only wants to see me then he will," Ciel advised before he said the next thing more quietly, "You also know what is going to happen so I see no reason this will be beneficial to you."

"I guess you're right" I mumbled with a pout on my face. I sighed and walked off to meet with the others and heard Finny gush about Angela. After "we" carried the luggage in (I just complained of how this place was terrible and how I should have stayed back) we went inside and happened to meet up with Angela.

"Really? You're the only maid for this entire estate?" Bard exclaimed in shock.

"That's amazing! I don't know how you get everything done, Angela!" Mey-Rin said immediately after. I felt my eyes roll and I sighed boredly. Was it really 'amazing' she did it by herself. I mean, Sebastian usually does everything in the manor and has to fix everything the rest mess up on.

"It's nothing that impressive, I promise you. I'm a mess most of the time." Angela said humbly while looking down at the table. I swear if I didn't know what she was I would have also fallen for her innocent maid facade.

"Just let us know if there's somethin' we can help you with.After all, we servants gotta stick together, right? Finny, (Y/N), am I right?" Bard questioned while looking at us. Finny nodded cheerfully and then he turned around to face me.

"Uhm I don't know. " I said and averted my gaze to the door. I felt Finny's questioning gaze on me.

"How kind of you to offer your help. Thank you, all.", Angela started but then Lord Henry rang some bells "I have to go right away! My master is calling. Please excuse me," and she scurried off.

"Angela is so pretty" Finny mentioned out of the blue while daydreaming. Bard nodded to that but was trying to get Finny's attention again.

I slammed my head on the table, "I'm surrounded by idiots," I wailed out, "Something is not right about Angela and all you guys can think about is how 'beautiful' and 'hardworking she is. Finny, Bard, use your heads".The duo stared at me in shock before Bard spoke.

"(Y/N), are you jealous?" Bard said teasingly with a smirk on his face. Mey-Rin giggled in the backround and I stood straight up.

"Whatttt?! NO! Of course not!" I snapped whilst I crossed my arms tightly. Finny looked disappointed and let out a light sigh.

"You know (Y/N), you should learn how to get to know someone before you judge them. Would you have liked it if when you first came to the manor we didn't like you because you were 'different'?" Finny retorted. I stared at him in disbelief. Was this guy really in love with a girl he met a couple of hours ago and was defending her?

I rubbed my temples and walked towards the door, "You know what, I don't even want to argue. I'll see you guys later". I walked outside and leaned against a wall.

I had to let Finny see Angela wasn't as innocent as she seemed.
