"Dialogue"  'thinking'

I silently worked my way up to my mistresses room working to be as quiet as possible, pushing the tray with her early morning tea without flaw, knowing what would happen if I were to mess up. My name is (F/N) (L/N) and I work for the cruel and mean Lady Aviline. Lady Aviline was all about perfection and if you were her servant and messed anything up you would get the whip. I knew this was true for a fact and I had the scars on my back to prove it. Finally arriving at my destination of her sleeping quarters I knocked lightly, "Mistress, its time to wake up." I said in an elegant voice as I then proceeded to walk into the bedroom and open the curtains, "Ugh..." she groaned as the morning light hit her sleeping form. She awoke with a fast sit up and her lips stretched into a circle from a yawn. 

"Good morning my Lady." I said in a fake pleasant voice. "Why good morning maid." she said to me refusing to use my real name. She quickly got out of her bed and marched her way over to the mirror , 'Oh boy, here we go again.'  I thought in a sour tone. "(F/N)," she said finally using my name, "Don't I look pretty today. I look so much better compared to those (E/C) eyes of yours, that (H/L) (H/C) hair , and don't forget that (S/C) skin of yours." she stated in a very rude tone once again making fun of me. Then again she made fun of everyone because she thought she was the most pretty thing around.   In my opinion she was raver ugly with her short and greasy may I add brown hair, she has very dull almost black eyes, with a very deep tan not suiting her body at all. 'I'm much more beautiful then you.' I thought bitterly. She finally turned around satisfied with her bullying of me, she went to say something more to me but a knock sounded at the door, "My Lady, Earl Phantomhive is an hour earlier then expected." Thomas the butler of this estate was the voice that sounded through the door. "Thomas please come in here and help me get changed as for you (F/N) GET OUT!" with this I jumped and rushed out the door as Thomas smoothly glided in giving me an apologetic look.

l went to they kitchen greeting the cook Maria with a gentle wave of my hand and a smile on my face. "(F/N), the mistress has asked you to serve the tea Thomas prepared to our guest." Maria told me, pushing a cart over to me with tea and a few snack cakes I smiled in response and grabbed the cart making my way to where the mistress always had her guests, in the courtyard. I arrived and lightly pushed the doors open and nearly gasped at the sight the Earl Ciel Phantomhive. He no more then a young 12- or possibly 13 year old boy. As I looked up from him I saw the most handsome man I had ever seen in my life. He was a butler and was dressed in a finely tailored suit, he had red eyes, and black hair. I saw my Mistress making goo-goo eyes at him, 'how distaste-full, you two are not even in the same class you are a noble and he is a servant, much like me.' I thought to myself. I noticed the man was staring at me and for a second his eyes were filled with confusion as he looked at me, he took a deep breath for some odd reason. I could have sworen his eyes turned a  bright reddish pink as he looked at me. I broke my stare at him at the same time he broke his stare at me.

I went over to the table where the two nobles sat and put down tea cups when a smooth voice with a British accent interrupted me, "Hello I am Sebastian Michaelis and this is my master Earl Ciel Phantomhive." I looked up from my task, "Hello Mr.Michaelis and Earl Phantomhive my name is..." when an all to familiar female voice chimed in, "They don't care (F/N)." she said rudely, "Just finish serving us tea." she finished off. The butler had a look of frustration as I turned back to my work and I could feel his gaze lingering on me and I'm assuming that's why I heard the angry huff of my mistress. "Today for the morning tea we are serving a new brand call Lemon Drop, I hope you enjoy" I said with a slight bow. I went to turn to walk away for my mistress and the earl with his butler when I heard my mistress spit. "(F/N)!" she shouted. I turned around grimacing, "Yes-s" my voice stuttered. "This tea is simply horrid, did you make it!?" she asked me. "No, Tho..." I then felt a burning hot liquid  on my chest an I cried out in pain. "LIAR!!!" she screamed at me as she then proceeded to pick her cane up and smack me across the face with it sending me to the ground. I felt something trickle down my face I put my hand up and touched the thick hot liquid to realize it was my blood. I looked up to see the earl looking and me with shock and my mistress giving me a happy smile. The only one that wasn't looking at me was Sebastian, who was instead giving the mistress an evil glare. I will tell you right now if looks could kill, she would be dead and buried in a shallow grave. 

She went to hit me with her cane again but a gloved hand stopped her. I looked up once again to see the Phantomhive's butler Sebastian protecting me, "Hitting a Lady is rude, even more so with a cane." his British voice stated. He gave me a hand and helped me up, "THAT THING A LADY! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU SHES NOT EVEN SUITED TO BE CALLED A DOG!" my mistress screamed. Suddenly I heard the young but yet mature voice of the Earl Phantomhive, " I will give you 1,500 pounds." he stated boredly. "For what?" my mistress said skeptically. "For this maid (F/N) (L/N) to come and work at my manor." he stated. Sebastian, Lady Aviline, and my eyes widened. "Deal, this maid is worthless anyways." she said happily. Ciel and her shook hands, 'Was I just sold, like some animal.'  I thought sadly. "Go and get your belongings and meet us by the carriage (f/n), oh and by the way call me master, young master, or lord which of these you call me I don't care." he stated in a bored voice. I practically ran to my bedroom and gathered the little belongings I had and then I darted to a mirror wiping the blood off my face and cleaned out the cut. Finally I ran down the main stairs and nearly ran through the doors, what I saw was the best thing of my life a carriage with the door open and waiting for me. I walked up to the carriage with one small bag in my hand and the Butler Sebastian which I was already falling in love with offered me a hand up. I gladly took it with a smile gracing my features. No one said anything to me as I took a seat next to Sebastian with a slight smile on my face as the carriage started to move I looked out and thought, 'goodbye my old life and it certainly time for a new one.'  

Unknown to me I had fallen asleep on Sebastians shoulder, he looked down and for the first time Ciel had ever seen he truly smiled. "Sebastian there's something special about her to you, isn't there." Ciel questioned him. "Yes, you see young master unlike your kind demons have what we call mates. Its like a soulmate in humans but we don't have souls, and our mate's are much more permanent. You see there souls are meant for us to protect them and we will only ever get one mate. Whether human or demon that's why we protect them so dearly. Its like imprinting or raver is imprinting everything that has meaning is now less important and she comes before everything." he stated to Ciel. "Does that mean she is more important then the contract."  Ciel asked Sebastian. "No, she will not get in the way of our contract." Sebastian replied. "Good." Ciel stated boredly. Sebastian  looked down at her once more compassion filling his eyes, "I have finally found my mate."  Sebastian stated in a loving whisper as the carriage neared the Phantomhive manor. A new life for both (F/N) and Sebastian ahead of them.
