(Black Butler ) Call My Name

Chapter 4 ~ Truth & Lies

[POV - 3rd Person]

Athena woke up the next morning, slowly opening her eyes as the sun shined through her window. She groaned and rolled over, not wanting to deal with the sunlight. She could have sworn Sebastian had closed the curtain last night.

However as soon as she turned her body, her hand accidentally smacked someone's chest. Her eyes narrowed and she sat up.

"What are you still doing here!?" She demanded angrily as she covered her self, knowing it was no use, it's not like they haven't seen each other before.

Sebastian chuckled and rose an eyebrow, "oh? You don't remember?" He teased "you asked me to stay~"

"GET OUT!!" Athena shrieked, trying to understand how they both ended up like that, then again, it wasn't the first time either. It happened every time she felt sad.

"Is that an order?"

Athena sighed and looked away. "Yes, it is, you know I don't like cuddling afterwards," she said coldly, knowing it was a lie, she honestly loved that Sebastian stayed whenever she asked. Ofcourse, it was under orders. That demon would never care for her. "A demon like you doesn't care. You only want one thing and you got it. So get out."

Sebastian sighed and got up, already fully dressed. "As you with my lady~" he said with a small bow. Knowing they were not to talk about what happened in the bedroom. "I'll seek to it breakfast is served." He said softly, leaving the room.

Athena's eyes watered and she laid back down, crying silently, hating herself every time she allowed herself to give into him. However, a part of her always loved it. He made her forget. Made her feel better, made the pain she felt go away, if for only a moment. But he would never love her. The more they did it the more she came to feel something, and that was something she couldn't allow herself to do.

She knew Sebastian wasn't as cruel compared to the other demons. Well~ atleast not to her anyway, but he was a demon, something she grew to hate ever since that day.

POV - Athena.

"I hate this..." I mumbled as I got up and stretched, Feeling slightly sore all over. Damn demon never held back on me. In a way I liked it. He made me forget, if even for a moment, and for that, I was grateful. I frowned as I looked for something to wear, "what's wrong with me?" I asked myself out loud.

There was a knock at the door and sighed "who is it?" I asked slightly annoyed as I couldn't find the proper attire.

"Miss Athena.... You're fiancé has come to visit you for breakfast." My maid said worriedly.

I sighed and chuckled, yes, oh I hated when he showed up unannounced. I simply despise him. "Tell him I'm busy" I snapped, I wasn't in the mood to see him, or anyone for that matter.

Edmond was a very nice person, clingy and annoying at times, however he was smart and one hell of a fencer. He was the man any women would die for; tall, blonde, green eyes, rich, and honest. However, I am not looking for love. No, love is absurd.

"Well miss, he's -" the maid replied, and squealed as the door opened. "No sir!" She begged, but it was too late.

Edmond had made his way into my chamber. "I'm not decent!" I yelled quickly getting the sheets to cover my body, the last thing I needed was for someone to figure out I was sleeping around with a demon- well butler in his eyes. It would look bad on my image and compromise everything.

I ran to the nearest corner, holding the sheet tightly around me. Letting my hair fall in my face, to cover my marked eye, as I glared at Edmond when he entered the room with that stupidly annoying goofy smile of his, however something was off. His eyes went wide but they seemed so empty. Like mine had been so long ago.
