"Master, if it is all the same to you, I will go welcome our guests now." Sebastian declares stepping out of His Master's office.

"Fine," Ciel Phantomhive says in reply to his butler. Ciel is slumped on the chair at his desk. Mounds of paperwork are stacked on the desk, and Ciel appears exhausted, with a slight bag under his eyes.

"How long are they staying?" Ciel asks Sebastian.

His butler pauses in the doorway, "Until after dinner I presume. Do you wish for me to send them off earlier?"

"Yes actually," Ciel answers yawning, "I'm quite exhausted and I still have work to do."

"I shall see to it," Sebastian speaks walking to Ciel.

Sebastian puts Ciel's blue coat on, and ties his eyepatch.

Then, butler and master, walk to the grand hall to welcome the guests.

|~~~~~~3 Hours Later~~~~~~|

"Well that was certainly boring," Ciel remarked after Sebastian had closed the door behind their dinner guests, "Business meetings are such a waste honestly."

"Especially if they always try to kill you master," Sebastian says with a smile.

"Yes," Ciel yawns.

"I shall go and prepare your bed now," Sebastian declares.

"Very well," Ciel says in reply.

Then, master and butler walk together down the long carpeted hallway towards Ciel's bedroom.

Suddenly, Ciel stops abruptly.

Without bothering to turn around he says, "Sebastian, I have a question."

"Anything My Lord," Sebastian kneels faithfully.

"Well b-" Ciel is cut off.

"Young master!!!" A high pitch screeching reaches Ciel's ears, "I have a letter for you, yes I do!"

Mey-Rin is running toward the two of them waving a letter in the air.

She reaches the two of them panting.

"H-here you g-go." She puts her hands on her knees to catch her breath.

Ciel brings the letter up to his eye and studies the seal on the flip side of the envelope.

"That's odd," he remarks, "I don't recognize the seal." Ciel scrunches his eyebrows in confusion, and then hands the letter to Sebastian.

Sebastian in turn studies it closely.

"Your orders," Ciel states, "To find out who that seal belongs too."

"Yes My Lord."

Sebastian sighs as he leaves the young master's bedroom.

Such petty orders Young Master has given me... Sebastian thinks to himself.

It shall take me no more than a minute to figure out to which family this seal belongs too.

Sebastian stops in his tracks.

Young master never asked me his question.

Sebastian pondered what sort of question his Lord was going to ask him.

Certainly none of the questions Ciel could ask could compare to the sorts of questions I want

to ask

him.
