It was evening now. After a hard day of selecting the correct tableware, setting the table, preparing dinner and finishing the other servants' tasks Sebastian and Mabel were now waiting in the entry hall for their guest - Duke John Wilson of Brighton - to arrive. They had already sent the other three off to their rooms to relax and the master was in his study finishing off signing the remaining company documents for a new product he was releasing.
"Sebastian do you know why the young lord even wanted to see this duke person?"
"Apparently the duke has been meddling with the funds the master gave him for the production of his new toy. Duke John Wilson has been altering the design of the toy to lower manufacturing costs. He then has been using the rest of the money to support his own lifestyle. The young master hated the very idea of his money being used on what he called some 'useless swine' so I believe we are to eliminate him tonight."
Mabel's eyes lit up with joy." Does that mean I'm going to eat tonight?"
Sebastian held his chin as he answered,"Potentially speaking, yes."
"Oh I can just taste him now! I can't wait for him to come. I hope he does taste nice, maybe like a nice piece of cake to finish the day. Mmmmm~"
"I can see you have a bit of a sweet tooth." Sebastian noticed." Do normal savoury tastes not satisfy you my dear?"
"They're fine but I just adore all the sweet tasting people. They are simply divine. With the savoury meals they can taste a bit bad like I could be tasting something alike to a burnt steak. Absolutely disgusting! With sweets it appears I can never go wrong."
"Well then," Sebastian began as he heard a loud knock at the door. "Let us hope he tastes sweet enough for you."
He opened the door and saw the duke standing outside fidgeting with his cuffs before saying." My name is John Wilson. I-I'm here to see the earl."
"Ah yes. We've been expecting you. My name is Sebastian Michaelis. If you need anything during you're time here you can address me or the head maid." He replied gesturing towards Mabel who curtsied a little.
"A pleasure to meet you miss.."
"Mabel Gladstone good sir. If you would be so kind as to follow us now. The master is waiting in his study where the two of you will be able to further discuss matters." The maid and butler both walked ahead of the man and he followed them upstairs to the earl's study.
After letting the guest and the earl talk for a while they all headed down to the dining hall. On the way there Mabel lagged behind a few steps until she was next to John. She suddenly held her ankle as if in pain and fell on the poor duke who caught her rather quickly.
"Aaahh!! My ankle, it hurts!"
"Are you alright miss?" John asked as he looked at Mabel with pink tinted cheeks. Mabel clung onto his shoulders and made subtle massaging movements. "I'll be fine. Thank you for catching me sir." She said as she gave him an innocent smile. John's palms grew to be sweaty and his face was as red as a tomato.
"Sebastian take Mabel to the kitchen and serve us dinner. " Ciel said as he sat down.
"Yes my lord."
Sebastian took Mabel from the duke and lifted her into a bridal hold. Mabel wrapped her arms around Sebastian's neck for support as he carried the 'injured' maid off to the kitchen.
As soon as they got there he dropped her on the floor and started plating the food.
"Sebastian what was that for?! Don't drop a lady on the floor that's the second time you've done that!" She yelled as she stood up and dusted the dirt off her skirt.
