[ 3rd POV ]

(Y/N) waved goodbye to them, pulling up the window of the car she sat in as it drove away.

"It seems she has made a good life living here," Sebastian said, taking his Master's coat off and held it.

Grell grinned, twirling around in her red dress. "Indeed, she is living the dream! A famous actress, getting to work with such delicious men.." She fanned herself, as she thought of the actor who portrayed Sebastian in the musical.

The group took the lift, standing in complete silence as the device pulled them up to the top floor.

"Well, I'm tuckered out. See you tomorrow." Ronald waved, pushing the door to his room open.

William followed suit, "Good night."

The redhead blew a kiss, "Dream of me, Sebas-chan!" The butler visibly shivered at her actions.


"Young Master? Are you alright?" Sebastian asked as he unbuttoned Ciel's top.

The young Lord looked to be deep in thought, as his eyes stayed put to the wall.

"Young Master?" Sebastian asked once more, shaking Ciel's shoulder slightly.

The said male snapped out of his thoughts, rubbing his temple.

"It's nothing." He said softly, though it was obvious that something was bothering him.

Sebastian slipped Ciel's nightshirt onto his Master, adjusting the sleeves lightly to ensure he was comfortable.

Just as Sebastian was about to leave the room, Ciel called out his name.

"Sebastian."

The butler turned around, his crimson eyes looking at him with curiosity.

"Yes?" He hummed, leaning against the doorway.

"Could we go for a walk?" The Earl wanted to clear his head, and the thoughts he kept inside were getting too much for him.

The ravenette frowned, "I would have to redress you then..."

Ciel shook his head. "It's fine. I saw a shirtless man running outside as we entered."

Sebastian nodded, "Very well then. Let me retrieve your coat."


The pair walked in silence, Ciel not caring where he was heading towards. He just kept on following the path he stood on, and it seemed to be never-ending.

His butler stayed right next to him, taking in his surroundings as he made comparisons in his mind about the items in the current time compared to items in the time he was accustomed to.

Just as they were going to head back to the hotel, someone lunged at Ciel.

The attacked held Ciel against an alley, taking a whiff of his scent. "Ah, you smell so alluring.."

Sebastian held a butter knife to the attacker's neck. "Please let go of my Young Master, otherwise I would have to harm you."
