I was in a deep sleep when I heard a high pitch girl screaming, “CIEL!” I groaned and opened my eyes to find that I was in Sebastian's room. I sat up and looked around the room; Sebastian was nowhere to be found. He is most likely cleaning the manor.

I got up, walked to the door, and opened the door. I walked out of the room and began walking to my room when I heard footsteps behind me. I quickly hid my tail and ears before I turned around and found a girl with bright blue eyes and curly blonde hair in pigtails standing there with a smile on her face. She looked about the young master’s age.

She tilted her head and said, “Who are you?”

“My name is Ophelia. I am the maid here at the manor. And who might you be?”

“Elizabeth Middleford, Ciel’s fiancé.” Fiancé huh. That’s new. “Do you know where he is?”

“Perhaps in his study. Did you check there?”

“No. Thank you.”

“You’re welcome Lady Elizabeth.” She turned and ran down the hall. I smiled, turned around, and walked to my room. When I got there Sebastian already had my maid uniform laid out on my bed and a warm bath ready. I smiled, went into the bathroom, and closed the door. I slipped out of my nightgown and got in the tub. I sat there soaking in the warm water until there was a knock at the door. Knowing it was Sebastian I said, “Yes Sebby.”

“I brought you some tea and a scone.”

“Thank you.” I said trying to scratch a spot on my back, “Ummm Sebby could you come in here and help me?”

The door opened and Sebastian came in then closed the door. “What do you need help with?”

“My back is itchy but I can’t reach where it’s itchy.” He smiled and walked toward me, I turned around to let him scratch my back. He took off a glove then started scratching my back. “Up.” He moved up. “To the right. Down a little. Right there.” I sighed at the relief and purred.

“Is that better kitten?” I nodded and smiled as he moved his hand to my head to scratch by my ears. I meowed as I leaned into his touch. I heard him chuckle as he stopped and turned my head slightly. He leaned in and lightly kissed me until we both heard Ciel call Sebastian from his study. He pulled away and said, “Hurry up kitten. We have a lot of work to do today.”

“Okay.” He walked out of the bathroom as I finished up in the tub. I got out the tub, put a towel around me, and walked out the bathroom to grab my maid uniform. I walked in the bathroom and got dressed quickly. I walked out the bathroom and quickly drank my tea. Peppermint tea. Lovely aroma.

Later that day Sebastian and Ciel went for a walk around the town and Lady Elizabeth had us decorate the manor. There were so much girly things around the manor that it made me sick, but I made sure that Elizabeth did not notice. She made Mey-rin, Finny, and Bard wear silly outfits, making me laugh at them until Elizabeth looked at me and said, “Ophelia I have something special for you to wear.” I smiled, Great. She ran to a bag across the room and got out an all black dress with white ruffles on the sleeves and it came with a red ribbon for my hair. “Do you like it?”

“No. I love it.”

She smiled, walked toward me, and handed it to me. “I hope it fits. I bought it this morning for myself but black doesn’t look good on me.”

“It should.” I said grabbing it, “I’ll go put it on.” I turned and walked upstairs.

Sebastian’s P.O.V.

The young master and I were just finishing our walk and he decided that we go back to the manor. We began walking back to the carriage but when we got back to the manor and I opened the door we did not expect the manor to be decorated with any girly decorations. The young master walked in as I closed the door and said, “Elizabeth what did you do to my manor?”
