A Little Hope (A Black Butler Fan Fiction)

One

You are walking the streets one in your knee-length (f/c) dress, black knee-high boots with (f/c) laces, and a black bow, holding your (h/l) hair in a ponytail. Your butler, Jerrod, following behind you. You didn't wish to travel by carriage because you felt you needed some fresh air and exercise.

You look into another window of another shop and see a beautiful (f/c) dress. Your butler notices your liking to it and walks into the store. He soon comes out with a bag that carries the dress. "Thank you Jerrod." Jerrod nods and politely bows to you with a smile on his face. You continue you to walk down the street, looking into shop windows.

You sigh and grow bored of window shopping. "Jerrod," you say.

Jerrod replies, "Yes Lady (y/n)?"

You sigh, "May we please return home?"

"Indeed Lady (y/n)," Jerrod says, holding out his hand for you to take. You take it, and he safely guides you across the street. Once you and Jerrod have crossed, Jerrod picks you up, bridal style, and carries you back to your family manor.

*At The Manor*

Your older brother and younger sister meet you and Jerrod at the door. Your personal maid, Jiana, is at the door too. You hug your bother and sister, but as you go to hug Jiana (you're very close to her and Jerrod), she hands you a letter. You read it.

Dear (y/l/n) family,

You are invited to a ball to be held at the Phantomhive manor. This ball is being held so the Phantomhive company may get to know more consumers.

Sinceraly,

The Queen's Guard Dog

A smile crossed your face. You absoulely LOVE parties. The dancing, the new faces, the dresses! You squealed, hiked up your dress, and ran upstairs and into your room. You laid the letter on your vanity table. Jiana and Jerrod quickly follow in after you. "Find my favorite (f/c) ballgown Jiana," you say smiling. Jerrod loves to see you smile so he does a kind, closed-eyed smile to you.

The ball is tomorrow and you cannot wait. Another tall butler knocks on your open door. You look over to him, "Yes, Todd?" you ask.

Todd politely bows to you, "Lady (y/n), dinner is ready." Jerrod takes your hand and leads you into the dinning room. Todd pulls out your chair and you sit down.

"Thank you Todd, Jerrod," you say with smile. They smile back. 

"It was no effort Lady (y/n)," they say at the same time.

Your maid enters the room, "Your gown is ready for tomorrow Lady (y/n)."

You smile, "Thank you Jiana!"

"Your welcome Lady (y/n)," Jiana answers. Your parents and your siblings walk into the the dining room with their maids and butlers.

While you are eating, you take the time to think about your life. Your family is extremely wealthy. Everyone had their own personal maid AND butler. Todd was a family butler though. Annabelle was the family maid. You favored Todd out of the two though. He is nice and cheerful, kinda like you. Annabelle just to seem like she just wanted to do her job, no socialization.

*time skip*

Jiana escorted you to your bedroom and helped you dress into your nightgown. She tucks you in and blows out your candle. Jiana soon leaves, and Jerrod walks in to say goodnight. Jerrod quickly leaves the room and closes your door. You fall into a deep sleep.

You were in a large ballroom dancing with a mysterious unknown man. He had a black top hat on, a black and red suit, and black boots with red laces. He swung you around the ballroom gracefully. You saw your parents talking to each other. Suddenly, the man dips you, and you see nothing but darkness. The classical music that was playing turns into blood curling screams.
