"It's time to get up, young Mistress." Charles opened the curtains. I sat up groggily and glared at him. My hair was disheveled and I probably had bags under my eyes. I climbed out of bed and stood there, glaring. Let's just say, I've never been an early riser or a morning person. Very rarely do you find me in a good mood if I wake up any earlier than eleven. Charles smirked. He still seemed way too young to be pulling this off. Shouldn't he still be with his mother or something?

"You look wonderful in the morning, my lady." he said. I made a face at him and sighed.

"Just help me get ready. Elizabeth is coming today, correct? Do I have to wear a dress?" I asked grumpily.

"I suppose not unless you wish to, my lady. It's always your choice." Charles said. He had a hand under his chin and he was leaning to the side. I went to my wardrobe and looked through the many shirts, pants, and dresses.

I decided on a pair of black trousers and a white button-up shirt with a black overcoat. All in all, it looked like something my brother would wear. Charles helped me get dressed. I took a bath and changed my clothes. Charles dried my hair and styled it for me.

I looked in the mirror and stuck my tongue out. I know, not lady-like at all. My hair was just so... I dunno, smooth. It looked too clean. I ran my hand through it and gave it a little bit of a messy appeal. It was still girly, but in a disheveled way.

I decided against any make up except mascara. I always use mascara. My lips looked rather pale. I bit them to add a little color but stayed away from the gloss. Charles examined me.

"You look lovely, my lady. All ready for breakfast, then?" he asked. I nodded and he led me down to the dining hall. Ciel sat across from me and we were served tea and scones.

"Why are you dressed like that?" he asked. I smoothed my coat and looked up at him.

"I feel more comfortable in boys' clothes than girls' clothes." I replied self-consciously. Ciel seemed surprised.

"Fine. I must warn you that Elizabeth won't like that." he warned. I nodded.

"I understand. I figured as much." I said. "I'll change if you want me too." He shook his head.

"No. Elizabeth doesn't control your actions and I won't let her make you do something you're not comfortable with." Ciel sounded determined. He was really trying to act like a good brother. Word still hadn't gotten out about me. The world doesn't know I exist. I think he wants to build a bond between us before anyone finds out about me. We finished our food with a few words here and there. Then Ciel went to his study to speak with Sebastian.

A short while later, a knock sounded out on the front door. I bounded up and stood behind Charles as he opened the door to a girl about my age with long, curly blonde hair and green eyes. She looked up at Charles, confused. But then her eyes landed on me. She squealed and tackled me to the floor.

"CIEL!" she screamed. I got to my feet irritably and glared at her.

"I'm not Ciel." I said. Her breath caught in her throat when she heard my voice. "I'm Sinnie Phantomhive. Ciel's twin sister."

"Oh, I'm sorry! Why are you in boy clothes?" she apologized. I glared at her. She stepped back as I dusted off my clothes.

"They're more comfortable." I replied simply. "Anyways, you must be Elizabeth. It's... Nice... To meet you." I said. She was probably scared out of her mind by me.
