🍓Ciel Phantomhive
It wasn't such a big news nor it was a surprise. The queens GuardDog and Elizabeth Midford called off their engagement earlier that year but kept it hidden from the public, no there wasn't any problems between them but just...losing the spark that once blossomed.

Though, you were Elizabeth's friend and Y/N stood by her side through it out. Even if she didn't need the counselling or sympathy for it, she greatly appreciated her worry. And that was what she wanted for Ciel.
Both were still great friends but Elizabeth still understood that Ciel needed someone there. So with her own approval, without even telling either of Y/N; she brought Y/N with her on her next visit to Ciel.

Introduced her formerly as Y/N L/N, the daughter of a businessman who designs clothing and sells jewelry all over the United Kingdom. So it was a plan of hers to have both become close enough for a relationship in the near future.

"So tell me Lady L/N, what's your favourite sweet to have?" Ciel asked, giving a smile.

"Oh, I rather enjoy (Favourite Sweet) a lot, why?" Raising a brow, Y/N gave Lizzy the look of 'does he ask this to guests often?' To which, she only gave a giggle.

"Sebastian, go prepare a dish with that appetizer," Ciel ordered his butler.

🍓Sebastian Michaelis
The servants all stood in a straight line, their gaze upon their master who called them all up. Sebastian even grew curious to why Ciel brought them all together, there was never a time where a meeting like this occurred. Unless to explain a quest from the queen but Sebastian would've already knew about that.

"I wanted to introduce you all to a new worker who will be apart of the household, full time as of now," Ciel spoke out, finally breaking the tense atmosphere.

From the door that was to the left of Ciel's office, a lady walked in. She was tying the apron on her back, "My apologies, the string got tangled for a moment."

Her voice was soft but she spoke with a nice room tone. Her H/L hair bounced as she walked right beside Ciel, straightening her posture.

"Hello, my name is Y/N L/N and I will be working here as a maid," She gave a bow, "If you need any new work equipment or we need a new stock of food, you let me know for I will be the one riding into London to retrieve them, and I do hope we can get along," Her lips curved into a soft smile.

Once all introductions were done, Ciel had Sebastian show you to where you would be staying. So as you walked down the hall with the butler, he took you to a certain wing where all the servants stay.

"Thank you so much, I can settle from here," She smiled kindly at Sebastian, bowing her head.

"Of course, now if you need any help, you come let me know," With the last part, Sebastian's voice become softer and hushed. He took a hold of Y/N's hand and gave a kiss on her knuckles before he walked off.

🍓Claude Faustus
"Claude! Can you go into London and retrieve me a strawberry shortcake from a certain bakery known as The Golden Flower? And hurry!" Alois commanded with a whiny tone, his brows knitted together.

"Yes your highness," Claude bowed before making his way.

It did cross his mind to why his master wanted a sweet that he could easily make but preferred to get it from a bakery. Was this baker worth the time to get a mere cake from? Making his way towards the city, he sped up once he seen the first glimpse of a paved road before slowing down.

It didn't take him that long to actually find the small café like place, it was actually in the middle of downtown. He walked into the store before being greeted by a worker at the checkout.
