The back and forth pacing of Elizabeth echoed throughout the manor as she stayed near the front door. She wouldn't sleep until Ciel returned with you, even if it took days.
The sound of the door slowly opening stopped her in her trail. She looked to the door and shielded her eyes from the morning sunlight to see Ciel carrying you in his arms. She instantly ran to you as Ciel set you down on a nearby couch with a pillow on your head for support.
"Oh, (Y/N)." Elizabeth said while observing your wounds and took a hold of your hand. "I was a horrible person to you. The last time we spoke really knocked some sense into me... I was blinded by anger and revenge... I hope you can forgive me...." She couldn't bare to look at you in the eyes.
You shifted your gaze onto Elizabeth and grabbed her hand with both of yours. "Elizabeth. Anger can make us do things we regret. It's a flaw we all have but it's what makes us human. We're able to feel and express our emotions and sometimes we let them take over." You tightened your grip on her hand. "But I forgive you."
Elizabeth couldn't believe it. She looked into your eyes and saw a genuine answer in them. "I don't deserve your apology..."
You smiled. "Yes you do. I know you're not a bad person, even with your past actions."
Elizabeth began to cry. "Thank you, (Y/N)... thank you."
You patted her hair. "Of course, Lizzy." Right after speaking you coughed up a bit more blood and Ciel ordered Sebastian to take you to your room to tend to your wounds.
Elizabeth stayed behind. She wanted to take the time to process everything that happened these last few days. 'She called me Lizzy... I'm so happy...'

During the painful weeks Ciel made sure to stay by your side in case you needed any assistance and kept you company. After a couple weeks you were finally able to walk freely without any excruciating pain.
Everything went back to normal. The Phantomhive staff were doing their daily duties of both keeping the manor in place as well as disrupting it from time to time, Sebastian keeping them in line and following orders, and Ciel getting paperwork done.
The only difference was that you were engaged.
Ciel proposed to you once you were healthy enough to walk and run without pain. You were filled with joy the moment he proposed that you jumped onto him and Ciel spun you in his arms as he kissed you in front of everyone on the manor. Cheers and whistles came loud and proud from everybody.

Two years later

You took one last look in the mirror before you turned to face Elizabeth. "Do I look ok?"
Elizabeth smoothed our your white veil. "(Y/N), you look beautiful. Don't worry about anything, today is going to go perfect." She said with a reassuring smile.
You smiled back and headed toward the door. "Let's get going. I can't be late to my own wedding now can I?"
Finny stood at the garden door waiting for you. He extended his arm and you wrapped yours around his and he guided you down the aisle as the music played. As you walked down, you could see some familiar faces that have been invited: Elizabeth and her family, Soma and Agni, even Grell was there.
Ciel couldn't believe his eyes when he saw you in your dress. He felt like he had fallen in love with you again when he saw how beautiful you looked. His eyes got a bit glossy from the thought of actually being married to angel like you and making it this far in life.
Sebastian conducted the ceremony as he read from the book out loud for everyone. Ciel wanted it to be Sebastian that made your marriage official. "Do you take Ciel as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"
You gave Ciel a smile. "I do."
Sebastian turned to Ciel this time. "Do you take (Y/N) as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"
Ciel nodded and smiled back. "I do."
Sebastian smirked. "You may kiss the bride."
And with that you were officially married and (Y/N) Phantomhive. You and Ciel kissed and the crowd went wild.
You separated from the kiss and rested your head against Ciel's chest. "I love you, Ciel."
Ciel lifted your face by your chin and looked you straight in the eyes. "Nothing will ever separate us." He kissed you again and hugged you tight.
"I'll love you forever, (Y/N)."
